AbstractDirect radiocarbon dating of Jomon pottery is carried out by accelerator mass spectrometry.
Relations between radiocarbon dating and a study for the Jomon period.The principle of the radiocarbon dating. The new method; Accelerator mass spectrometry. A sample to be measured by AMS is so small that it is important to reject contamination. Potsherds of Jomon pottery have the information for dating on production and use. A calibration curve converts a radiocarbon age to a calendar age.
