A Queen's #archaeology initiative is to benefit from a major, national investment by the UKRI Arts and Humanities Research Council.

"This will enhance our leadership in heritage science, particularly through our renowned 14CHRONO dating facility, aiming to resolve legacy dating issues in UK museum collections while meeting Northern Ireland’s regional #heritage sector needs." - @papgleeson, @arcpalqub

Mike first joined QUB Archaeology in 1968 when he was employed to work on the construction of an oak annual tree-ring chronology for the island. By the 1980s this became the Belfast oak chronology dating back c.7600 years and hugely important for radiocarbon dating calibration.

[ArcPalQUB @arcpalqub]

We are saddened to share the passing of our great colleague Prof Mike Baillie. Mike’s contribution to archaeology was truly monumental and he was a force within our department for so long. He will be missed, and remembered as a great scholar, kind and incredibly witty man!

Available now from our lab, an easy-to-use open source R package which can model sequences of dates in chronological order, including possible blocks of dates, gaps, and undated levels. Please let us know what you think of coffee!
