14C & Archaeology : 8th International Symposium  

Congrès, colloques, réunions

 

27 juin - 1er juillet 2016
Edinburgh

 

 

 

The symposium will be organised by the staff of the SUERC Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory, with help from a number of Scottish based archaeologists and scientists. The SUERC laboratory has a long association with archaeology, particularly Scottish archaeology, having worked closely with Historic Scotland for over 30 years. Therefore, our aim for the symposium is to showcase a good balance of current archaeological research that employs radiocarbon and developments in the radiocarbon technique.
