Introduction

Archaeologists and archaeology students have long since needed an authoritative account of the techniques now available to them, designed to be understood by non-scientists.

Book Overview

This book fills the gap and it offers a two-tier approach to the subject. The main text is a coherent introduction to the whole field of science-based dating, written in plain language for non-scientists.

Additional end-notes, however, offer a more technical understanding, and cater for those who have a scientific and mathematical background.
