Compound-specific radiocarbon analysis has played important role in the methodology applied in radiocarbon dating since the development of modern analytical instrumentation. Thank to this evolution it is nowadays possible to radiocarbon date samples which would be normally considered as undatable due to their heterogenous nature or secondary contamination. The aim of this review is to introduce molecular-specific radiocarbon dating approach and show some particular applications already successfully tested and used in radiocarbon dating.

The review provides scientific and basics view on radiocarbon dating. However, his presentation, calibration and interpretation of radiocarbon ages are misleading in some cases, and important wide applications for age determining process. Radiocarbon dating is a radiometric dating method that uses the naturally occurring radioisotope carbon-14 ( 14 C) to estimate the age of carbon-bearing materials up to about 58,000 to 62,000 years. Key words: Radiocarbon dating

The errors in radiocarbon age determination on the wood samples are estimated from the possible variations in the concentration of radiocarbon in the atmosphere. Recent results of measurements on the secular variation of the atmospheric 14C are presented and compared in order to find a general variation. Based on this general variation a correction curve for conventional radiocarbon ages to calender years is computed.

Radiocarbon ages for the Côa petroglyphs are very similar to those obtained by Watchman (1995). Fundamental problems in the use of radiocarbon dating at Côa include evidence for the addition of younger carbon in an open system, and evidence of contamination from older sources of carbon. Radiocarbon measurements, therefore, cannot be used to decide whether the engravcings are or are not of Palaeolithic age.

The method of radiocarbon dating is currently widely used in archaeology work.The application of radiocarbon dating in Chinese archaeology has brought dramatic progress to its development.However,there are some problems in decades of use at the same time.Depending on the definition radiocarbon dating,the using condition in China and other related problem,this paper tries to explain the development of radiocarbon dating,in order to deepen the understanding of radiocarbon dating.

This list consists of radiocarbon dates for geological samples measured from 1988 to 1990 at the resumed National Taiwan University (NTU) Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory. The NTU Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory was re-activated in 1988, after more than 14 years.

Clark (1975) gave a clear account to ANTIQUITY readers of the current state of the radiocarbon calibration problem. It is now 19 years since De Vries demonstrated that one of the primary assumptions of the radiocarbon dating method was in error. Since then more than 1,200 measurements have been made on samples of known-age wood and over 70 papers published on this topic (reviewed by Bermingham and Renfrew, 1972 and by Clark, 1975). In spite of this activity, at the recent radiocarbon conference in Los Angeles and La Jolla no international agreement could be reached on a single calibration or correction that could be used to convert radiocarbon measurements to calendar ages. The problems of calibration have undermined the confidence of many European archaeologists in radiocarbon dating-one hears remarks such as ‘one can’t take the dates seriously, after all they are only radiocarbon dates’. Workers attempting to reconcile calibrated radiocarbon dates with historically based chronologies have found that the agreements do not live up to their expectations based on the quoted standard deviations of the dates. In the short term the results we present here may further convince the archaeologist that radiocarbon dates will not solve his chronological problems. However, we hope to demonstrate that radiocarbon dating is ultimately capable of sufficient accuracy to be fully compatible with historical chronologies
