C14 Radiocarbon Dating - Sample - OxA-8994
OxA-8994
A carbonised organic encrustation on a pot, Find 28+10 Pot 2, from pit L23 in a timber enclosure. See also OxA-8992 (4110+/-55 BP) and OxA-8993 (3845+/-75 BP) from similar encrustations on similar pots. A previous date from a single piece of birch charcoal from the same pit (AA-22906: 3750+/-50 BP) had been judged surprisingly late.
