Description

The British Museum seeks to identify suppliers of radiocarbon dating services to support INDUCE a long-term research project funded by the ERC. The function of pottery from up to 100 Neolithic sites between the Urals and the south-west Baltic coast will be investigated, through multiple scientific analyses of organic residues. The project includes the largest dating programme ever undertaken on early pottery in this region. We are looking to engage with up to three radiocarbon dating laboratories. It is estimated that around ~200 AMS 14C samples will require dating per year in the period 2018-2020.
