The present date list contains only details of C14 measurements on sites selected for archaeomagnetic study. Except where otherwise stated in the text, all samples were collected in 1970 or 1971 during fieldwork by one of the authors (M.B.), and were pretreated with hot 2N HCl to remove any possible contamination by pedogenic carbonate. Benzene samples were prepared using updated synthesis techniques (Polach et al., 1972) and measurements of C14 activity were made on two Beckman LS-200 liquid scintillation spectrometers following automatic cycling procedures described previously (Polach, 1969). Samples ANU-677-697 were counted on the spectrometer which has been in use since 1968 (LS-1).
