User:Taxelson/QUB - Northern Ireland first century AD

The Oak chronology for Ireland is, based on the QUB-material, possible to build continuously and with good quality down to about 100 AD, and before that remains a rather tiny tail down to 13 BC (The oldest samlpe is QUB:Q218 from Mill Lough). According to the Late Roman gap-problem an indisputable link between the Irish AD-chronology and the English Roman time complex would bee very welcome and of great value. Unfortunately the link, so far, is too weak to confirm the date accepted for Roman complex. Here meta data and analyzes of the old tail of the Irish QUB data may be gathered. The sites in QUB forming the old end of the present time Irish chronology are:

Allistragh

Allistragh, AD 39 - 337 (>2 samples from AD 97) (natural, bog oak?)

Ballinderry

Ballinderry, AD 25 - 618 (>2 samples from AD 110) meta data missing, but possibly anthropogenic remains (and likely the "Ballinderry" in Antrim county)

Balloo

Balloo, AD 17 - 312 (>2 samples from AD 52) (probably bog oaks, found reused in a rather modern building)

Teeshan

Teeshan, AD 82 - 581 (>2 samples from AD 144) Crannog

Mill Lough

Mill Lough, 13 BC - AD 611 (>2 samples from AD 37) (natural, bog oak?)
