Can you help fund Ness of Brodgar radiocarbon dates?

The extremely fine pottery that Georgie discovered — it's more like porcelain than Grooved Ware.

The Ness of Brodgar excavation project is appealing for donations to help fund 40 radiocarbon dates from the site.

The annual excavations rely on public donations and the generosity of our supporters, and we are now looking to fund 40 radiocarbon dates – at £375 each.

The dates will compliment new dates we will shortly be publishing, with the Times of Their Lives project, in the European Journal of Archaeology, which look set to not only refine the chronology of the Ness of Brodgar complex but also Neolithic Orkney.

All donations, large or small, will be most gratefully received at https://cafdonate.cafonline.org/4879
