Abstract

Radiocarbon dating is an important chronological instrument o f contemporary archaeology. Therefore the detailed radiocarbon dating o f the Ivanovskoye VII site (the Mesolithic-the Neolithic) was carried out in 1997- 1998. In the course o f the fieldwork three detailed peat sections with cultural layers and many individual samples of wood and bones were taken to be dated. The samples' pretreatment and dating were carried out in the Laboratory o f the Isotope G eochem istry and Geochronology o f Geological Institute o f RAS. Many interesting results were obtained, and important methodological work was done. The duration of each cultural layer accumulation was estimated. The peculiarities o f dating of wood from peat sites were studied. The age of the most ancient cultural layer IV and its formation sequence were analyzed. The chronology o f the site and the history o f its development and accumulation o f the layers are presented in the article.
