Funding from Baltisch-Deutsches Hochschulkontor for combined radiocarbon and dietary stable isotopes analysis

Archemy Group in collaboration with Centre for Baltic and Scandinavian Archaeology (ZBSA) and Leibniz-Labor für Altersbestimmung und Isotopenforschung der Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel received  Baltisch-Deutsches Hochschulkontor funding for the project „Archaeology, radiocarbon and dietary stable isotopes: novel approaches to 14C dating of Baltic archaeological material“. The purpose of the project is to critically evaluate previously obtained 14C dates from Estonia in combination with dietary stable isotope results, to learn and test novel analytical methods and to develop those skills among the Estonian archaeologists, resulting in raised awareness of the use of 14C dating in archaeological research.

There will be a public seminar and workshop as part of the project, further information to follow in due course.
