  • Problems related with calibration of 14C age to calender date

抄録

In establishing the accurate chronology of any archeological events in Holocene, in particular, Yayoi, Kofun and younger periods in Japan by 14C dating, a proper calibration method of 14C age to calendar date is required. The calibration data, IntCal04/Intcal09, that are normally applied to 14C ages of terrestrial plant materials produced in the northern hemisphere, were tested for their consistency with the relevant relations between 14C age and dendro-age for tree-ring samples formed in the Japanese Archipelago. Some parts of dendro-dated tree-rings, formed from the 10th century BC to the AD 18th century, have been analyzed for 14C ages, and the resulting relations were almost consistent with those of IntCal04/IntCal09, except for a clear discrepancy at around AD50 to AD250; 14C ages for the tree ring samples formed in Japan were older than those of IntCal04/IntCal09 by about 50-80 14C years. In addition, more frequent periods in which such discrepancies had occurred were observed in the last two millennia for Yaku-sugi trees, grown in the southern part of Japan. The present status in the studies of the 14C-age-calibration issues for Japanese samples is discussed.
