The C14 Laboratory at Kiel University was established in 1963. It continues measurements, which were made at the Institut für Kernphysik, Kiel, on age determination with Chlorine 36, which is produced by cosmic ray neutrons (Bagge and Willkomm, 1963, 1966). The first C14-counting apparatus was completed in 1964 and dating work started at the end of 1964 after extensive general tests of counter working conditions (Erlenkeuser, 1965). The data reported here have been obtained during the first half of 1965. During this period the dating measurements were interrupted on numerous occasions by measurements of background and the oxalic standard in order to check long-time variations of the apparatus.
