The University of Tokyo Carbon Dating Laboratory was established to meet the requirements for dating materials from various fields of science at the university. Installation and testing of the apparatus as well as routine assays have been carried out with counsel of Dr. Nobufusa Saito, Professor of Chemistry, and Dr. Yozo Nogami, Professor of Physics, the University of Tokyo. Management of the laboratory is undertaken by the Carbon Dating Committee of he University of Tokyo. The laboratory has actually been working for a year. This article reports the radiocarbon age measurements made from September 1966 to July 1967, together with a brief description of the measuring system.
