  • AMS radiocarbon dating of bone collagen: Establishing a chronology for the Swanport Aboriginal burial ground, South Australia

    F Donald Pate, Donald F Pate et al.ARTICLEAustralian Archaeology2003Cited by: 4References: 13

    The Swanport Aboriginal skeletal population has played a significant role in physical anthropological research in Australia. This paper provides the first chronometric dates for this important burial population. AMS radiocarbon determinations on bone collagen from six individuals showed a calibrated 2a range from 1027 BC to 1521 AD. On the basis of this sample, the Swanport population appears to pre-date all European contact in Australia. These d…

  • Early Human Occupation at Devil's Lair, Southwestern Australia 50,000 Years Ago

    Open AccessChris Turney, Chris S M Turney et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2001

    New dating confirms that people occupied the Australian continent before the earliest time inferred from conventional radiocarbon analysis. Many of the new ages were obtained by accelerator mass spectrometry 14 C dating after an acid–base–acid pretreatment with bulk combustion (ABA-BC) or after a newly developed acid–base–wet oxidation pretreatment with stepped combustion (ABOX-SC). The samples (charcoal) came from the earliest occupation levels …

  • The Chronology of the Ghassulian Chalcolithic Period in the Southern Levant: New 14 C Determinations from Teleilat Ghassul, Jordan

    Open AccessStephen Bourke, Ewan Lawson et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2001Cited by: 8References: 8

    This article reports on ten new accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) dates from the Chalcolithic period (fifth millennium BC) archaeological type-site of Teleilat Ghassul in Jordan. Early radiocarbon assays from the site proved difficult to integrate with current relative chronological formulations. The ten new AMS dates and follow-up enquiries connected with the early assays suggest that the original dates were up to 500 years too early. A necess…

  • How old is north Queensland's rock‐art? A review of the evidence, with new AMS determinations

    Open AccessBruno David, R A Armitage et al.ARTICLEArchaeology in Oceania/Archæology…1999

    It has been 18 years since Andrée Rosenfeld suggested that the rock‐art of north Queensland changed from non‐figurative to mainly figurative forms some 5–4000 years ago. Her views were based on a small regional database and on indirect chronological evidence. This paper looks afresh at the antiquity of north Queensland's rock‐art by reviewing the existing evidence — much elaborated since Rosenfeld's pioneering work — and by presenting new AMS rad…

  • Radiocarbon Laboratories

    Open AccessHéctor Panarello, Pabellon Ingeis et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1999

    This is RADIOCARBON'S annual list of active radiocarbon laboratories and personnel known to us. Con- ventional beta-counting facilities are listed in Part I, and accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) facilities in Part II. Laboratory code designations, used to identify published dates, are given to the left of the listing. ( See p 349 ff. for a complete list of past and present lab codes.)

  • The Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Stick-Nest Rat Middens in Australia

    Open AccessStuart Pearson, Ewan Lawson et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1999Cited by: 1References: 21

    The spatial and temporal distribution of 145 radiocarbon dates on 66 Australian stick-nest rat middens ( Muridae: Leporillus spp.) range from modern to 10,900 ± 90 BP. As in American packrat middens, age frequency follows a logarithmic decay, both continentally and at major sites. This is probably a result of natural decay processes. Unlike American middens of similar age, relatively few range changes in plant distribution have been detected in A…

    Open AccessClaudio Tuniz, David Fink et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1995Cited by: 1References: 6

    The ANTARES accelerator mass spectrometry facility at Lucas Heights Research Laboratory is operational and AMS measurements of 14 C, 26 Al and 36 Cl are being carried out routinely. Measurement of 129 I recently commenced and capabilities for other long-lived radioisotopes such as 10 Be are being established. The overall aim of the facility is to develop advanced programs in Quaternary science, global climate change, biomedicine and nuclear safeg…
