TL;DR: In this article, the main chemical pretreatment protocols currently used for AMS radiocarbon dating at the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit, updating the protocols last described by Hedges et al.

TL;DR: Improved accelerator mass spectrometry 14C techniques are applied to construct robust chronologies from 40 key Mousterian and Neanderthal archaeological sites, showing that there was ample time for the transmission of cultural and symbolic behaviours, as well as possible genetic exchanges, between the two groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The genome of an Ethiopian male, “Mota,” who lived approximately 4500 years ago is sequenced to demonstrate that the Eurasian backflow into Africa came from a population closely related to Early Neolithic farmers, who had colonized Europe 4000 years earlier.
Journal ArticleDOI
Problems with radiocarbon dating the Middle to Upper Palaeolithic transition in Italy
TL;DR: In this paper, the same authors compared two fractions of the same charcoal samples derived from a series of superimposed Mousterian, Aurignacian and Gravettian levels excavated at the Grotta di Fumane, in northern Italy.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: 14C results from Lake Suigetsu, Japan are reported, which provide a comprehensive record of terrestrial radiocarbon to the present limit of the 14C method, and gives information on the connection between global atmospheric and regional marine radiOCarbon levels.
