| Radiocarbon date: | 3376-3350 (2 sigma) cal BC; 4760±90BP; 3646-3378 (1 sigma); Antler from base of phase 1 ditch; Calibrated with Uni of Washington Calibration programme 1987 (Richards 1990). Although Cleal et al. (1995) give this as 3780-3350 cal BC (perhaps a different calibration). McOmish et al. (2002) repeat the date from the Environs monograph. P Marshall (pers. comm. 2017, using OxCal) recalibrates this to 3710-3350 cal BC (2 sigma). |
