8th International Symposium on 14C & Archaeology to be held in Edinburgh, Scotland, 27th June to 1st July 2016. The symposium will be organised by the staff of the SUERC Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory, with help from a number of Scottish based archaeologists and scientists. The SUERC laboratory has a long association with archaeology, particularly Scottish archaeology, having worked closely with Historic Scotland for over 30 years. Therefore, our aim for the symposium is to showcase a good balance of current archaeological research that employs radiocarbon and developments in the radiocarbon technique.

The symposium will be held in the Royal College of Surgeons.
