OxA-12874 one of a cluster of disarticulated bones found in context (267) of the entrance to the north chambered area collagen, bone Homo sapiens NA 4606±32 BP A. Bayliss et al. 2007 Hinz et al. 2012
OxA-12875 bone is one of a cluster of disarticulated bones found in context (336) of the north chamber, attributed to a child, collagen, bone Homo sapiens NA 4883±31 BP A. Bayliss et al. 2007; Meadows et al. 2007 Hinz et al. 2012
OxA-12876 unpaired infant femur found in context (336) of the north chamber collagen, bone Homo sapiens NA 4870±33 BP A. Bayliss et al. 2007 Hinz et al. 2012

For evaluations exceeding the intra-site level, it is particularly important that such data is collected in large numbers and that the dates are easily accessible. Also, new statistical analyses, such as sequential calibration based on Bayesian methods, do not require single dates, but rather demand a greater number. By their combination significantly more elaborate results can be achieved compared to the results from conventional evaluation (e. g. Whittle et al. 2011).
