Abstract
Radiocarbon dating and stratigraphic resolution in Welsh late glacial chronology
S Lowe
210 - 213
The remarkably thick late glacial organic deposits in Llyn Gwernan on Cader Idris have permitted a greater than usual resolution of the 14C time scale for the period. The results are compared with other dates for Wales.
Ancient astronomers of the New and Old Worlds
Aubrey Aubrey W Burl
335
Brief report on the international symposium on archaeoastronomy held at Oxford in September 1981. Topics ranged from Eneolithic grave orientations in Hungary to a carved spiral with solstice marker in New Mexico. Throughout there was insistence on the application of more rigorous criteria to such work.
Holocene wiggles
Rhodes W Fairbridge
670 - 671
Summary of conference on Holocene Correlation chaired by author and D J Schove at which recent work on varve chronology, oxygen isotope analysis of ice cores, dendrochronology, and palaeomagnetism was discussed, with particular reference to cyclic variations.
Radiocarbon dating and archaeology
Robert E M Hedges
700 - 701
Brief report of the August 1981 meeting at Groningen which was planned to improve the integration of strategic goals in archaeology with the technical possibilities of modern 14C laboratories. Topics included the influences which can affect accuracy or reliability; the special problems of charcoal, bone, and shell as dating media; and the use of new accelerator methods.
