TL;DR: This work used 211 radiocarbon measurements made on samples from short-lived plants, together with a Bayesian model incorporating historical information on reign lengths, to produce a chronology for dynastic Egypt, which indicates that the New Kingdom started between 1570 and 1544 B.C.E. and the reign of Djoser in the Old Kingdomstarted between 2691 and 2625 B.E.; both cases are earlier than some previous historical estimates.

TL;DR: A review of the state-of-the-art in the area of radiocarbon dating can be found in this paper, with a focus on the development of statistical tools that can be used with, and help develop, such calibration data.

TL;DR: These findings provide the first direct evidence for the ethnic origins of enslaved Africans, at a time for which historical records are scarce, and demonstrate that genomic data provide another type of record that can shed new light on long-standing historical questions.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple method of graphite target development, first presented at AMS-7, has been further developed and refined, which is now employed for routine graphite sample preparation at ORAU.

TL;DR: The findings of this study suggest that successful corrections can be made for the inherent age offsets of radiocarbon dates on samples susceptible to inbuilt age.
