The radiocarbon dates covered in this list were measured during 1978. Chemical and counting procedures are as reported previously (R, 1978, v 20, p 398-404). Age calculations are based on the conventional 14C half-life (5570 yr) and on the contemporary value of 95% of the activity of NBS oxalic acid. Errors quoted correspond to 1σ value which takes into account the counting statistics, the uncertainty in the half-life, and the instability of the counting system. The ages are not corrected for isotopic fractionation in nature.
