Belfast Radiocarbon Dates VI [PDF]

open access: yesRadiocarbon, 1970
The dating equipment and operating conditions remain essentially as previously described. This list includes some small samples counted at a filling pressure equivalent to 76cm Hg. at 20°C. Carbon isotope ratios were obtained and calculated as described (R., 1973, v. 15, p. 212). All samples are from Ireland.

Between a rock and a soft place: Using optical ages to date ancient clam gardens on the Pacific Northwest. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Rock-walled archaeological features are notoriously hard to date, largely because of the absence of suitable organic material for radiocarbon dating. This study demonstrates the efficacy of dating clam garden wall construction using optical dating, and ...

Chronology of Central European Impulses in the Volga Forest Region: Fatyanovo and Abashevo Cultures

open access: yesПоволжская археология, 2023
There is a difference in chronology based on radiocarbon dating and historical dates associated with Near Eastern written sources. With the introduction of AMS dating, this gap has become smaller, but has not disappeared.

Radiocarbon dating — modern state, problem, prospects of development and use in archaeology

open access: yesВестник археологии, антропологии и этнографии, 2016
Basic principles of radiocarbon dating are presented in the article. History of the method development and modern state are shown. Difficulties appeared under the radiocarbon dating and approaches, permitting to present the received results correctly are

Evidence for late polynesian colonization of New Zealand: University of Waikato radiocarbon measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We present radiocarbon determinations for 271 New Zealand archaeological samples measured at the University of Waikato Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory between 1975 and 1995.

The Problems of Radiocarbon Dating [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2005
In their Perspective “The boon and Bane of radiocarbon dating” (21 Jan., p. [362][1]), T. P. Guilderson et al. raise some important issues in radiocarbon (14C) dating. They discuss the problems of calibrating 14C dates that fall within “age plateaus” of the 14C calibration curve and ...

Challenges in sample processing within radiocarbon dating and their impact in 14C-dates-as-data studies

open access: yes, 2020
For decades, researchers have employed sets of radiocarbon dates to reconstruct trends in ancient human populations. The overarching assumption in this analysis is that the frequency of dates is proportional to the magnitude of past human activity. Thus,

Assessment of oxygen plasma ashing as a pre-treatment for radiocarbon dating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This study investigates the potential of low-temperature oxygen plasma ashing as a technique for decontaminating charcoal and wood samples prior to radiocarbon dating.

Seeking the Holy Grail

open access: yesDocumenta Praehistorica, 2018
The strengths of formal Bayesian chronological modelling are restated, combining as it does knowledge of the archaeology with the radiocarbon dating of carefully chosen samples of known taphonomy in association with diagnostic material culture.

Towards achieving low background levels in routine dating by liquid scintillation spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
International radiocarbon intercalibration studies have revealed that radiometric laboratories using liquid scintillation (LS) spectrometry of benzene reported, on average, younger ages for near-background standards than either gas proportional counter ...
