New Uses for Old Laboratory Techniques

Mortar and plaster were used extensively in the ancient Near East to construct floors, walls, roads, aqueducts and even to create art. As a result, these materials are virtually ubiquitous in archaeological excavations today. Imagine, therefore, how important it would be for dating ancient sites if...

520 |a Mortar and plaster were used extensively in the ancient Near East to construct floors, walls, roads, aqueducts and even to create art. As a result, these materials are virtually ubiquitous in archaeological excavations today. Imagine, therefore, how important it would be for dating ancient sites if we could accurately determine the age of mortar or plaster using modern techniques. This is exactly what many scientists who work with radiocarbon dating have been trying to do for the last thirty years, with different levels of success. Recently, however, the author and his colleagues have made significant progress at radiocarbon dating plaster from Siloam's Tunnel in Jerusalem and at Khirbet Qana in the Lower Galilee.
