Abstract:

This thesis investigates the potential of using terrestrial molluscs for radiocarbon dating of archaeological sediments. The sequence at the Haua Fteah, Cyrenaica, in Libya provides a case study. Two strands of study were undertaken as part of the ERC funded Cyrenaica Prehistory Project: the examination of the present day radiocarbon ecology of species in the region; and an analysis of archaeological shell from the Haua Fteah cave with the aim of developing a high-resolution chronology for the upper portions of the site. Previously, the dating for many of the key lithic technological phases in

The research developed during my PhD can be inserted within the activities of the Archaeometry Laboratory of the Physics Department of the University of Ferrara, where works of art are studied using non invasive and non destructive techniques for diagnostic purposes. In particular, in the most recent years the attention has been focused on contemporary artworks. Concerning contemporary art, it is well known that one of the most important aspects is authentication and, as a consequence, identification of fakes. Sometimes a simple artistic style is not sufficient to solve this issue; therefore

Abstract:

The rate of atmospheric formation of radiocarbon (C-14) was long considered to be relatively constant over time during the Holocene and late Pleistocene epoch. Because living tissue fixes carbon derived from the atmosphere, the result is a fairly constant proportion of radioactive C-14 to stable C-12 in living plants and animals. Using the measured half-life of C-14 (5,730 years), the approximate age of plant and animal tissue containing C-14 extending back as far as 30,000 ybp can be calculated. However, the C-14 dating technique is not as accurate as was once believed because it has been dis

Abstract:

The use of shells from terrestrial and freshwater molluscs for radiocarbon dating has in the past been viewed with scepticism or even dismissed entirely because the results are prone to distortion from post-depositional diagenesis, or the incorporation of material with a low 14C/12C ratio whilst the mollusc was alive, or both. The thesis attempts to discuss how the relative importance of the two factors can be assessed and the corresponding ages corrected accordingly. Diagenesis was studied by comparing the structure and chemical composition of 39 species of British molluscs from modern specim

Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) has been used routinely for radiocarbon measurements for several years. During this period it has become evident neither the accuracy nor the range of the technique were as great as had originally been hoped. This thesis describes both theoretical work to understand the reasons for this and practical solutions to overcome some of the problems. The production and transport of the ions used in the measurements are found to be the most crucial stages in the process. The theories behind ion production by sputtering are discussed and applied to the specific case

Archaeological bones are usually dated by radiocarbon measurement of extracted collagen.

This dissertation seeks to reconstruct the distribution of Neanderthals and modern humans in time and geographic space in order to better understand the nature of interactions between the groups.

Following this methodology, I critically reviewed published radiocarbon dates and produced new dates from active excavations in three regions: the Levant, Balkan

In order to determine the timing of Antarctic ice sheet retreat and advance during the Late Quaternary, various tools are used to measure the age of marginal marine sediments. Carbonate 14C dating is a well-established approach, but requires foraminiferal microfossils, shells or other carbonate materials that are rare in most Antarctic regions, and may also suffer from vital effects, which can result in variability of up to 500 years in living organisms.
