Radiocarbon dating minute amounts of bone (3–60 mg) with ECHoMICADAS [PDF]
Because hard tissues can be radiocarbon dated, they are key to establishing the archaeological chronologies, palaeoenvironmental reconstructions and historical-biogeographical processes of the last 50,000 years.

DENDROCHRONOLOGY AND RADIOCARBON DATING [PDF]
ABSTRACTBoth dendrochronology and radiocarbon (14C) dating have their roots back in the early to mid-1900s. Although they were independently developed, they began to intertwine in the 1950s when the founder of dendrochronology, A. E. Douglass, provided dated wood samples for Willard Libby to test his emerging 14C methods.

Radiocarbon dating and its applications in Chinese archeology: An overview
Radiocarbon dating is a well-established chronometric technique that has been widely employed in Chinese archeology since the first radiocarbon laboratory started operating in the Institute of Archaeology at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1965.
