Development and application of an analytical method for radiocarbon dating bones using the amino acid hydroxyproline
<p>Archaeological bones are usually dated by radiocarbon measurement of extracted collagen. However, low collagen content, contamination from the burial environment or museum conservation work have previously lead to inaccurate results, especially for old bones, compromising the ability to rec...
