An arrowhead made of meteoritic iron from the late Bronze Age settlement of Mörigen, Switzerland and its possible source
A search for artefacts made of meteoritic iron has been performed in archaeological collections in the greater area of the Lake of Biel, Switzerland. A single object made of meteoritic iron has been identified, an arrowhead with a mass of 2.9 g found in the 19th Century in the late Bronze Age (900–800 BCE) lake dwelling of Mörigen, Switzerland. The meteoritic origin is definitely proven by combining methods extended and newly applied to an archae…
Current Performance and Preliminary Results of a New 14 C Extraction Line for Meteorites at the University of Bern
Here, we introduce a new radiocarbon ( 14 C) extraction line operating at the University of Bern, which was designed and built for the extraction of in situ 14 C from meteorites. With this system, we achieved two important developments compared to other systems. First, using the MICADAS gas-interface system, 14 C can directly be measured from the collected CO 2 gas, i.e., without graphitization of the sample. Second, meteorite sample masses as lo…
