Outline of Final Research Achievements

Verdigris is rust produced on the surface of bronze implement. The reactants are Cu which contains bronze and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. When verdigris is formed once, it will be a close film and restrains generation of new rust. Therefore, verdigris should preserve carbon of the atmosphere when it was formed. The purpose of this study is to prove the possibility of radiocarbon dating of bronze. In the first, by preparatory experiments, we clarified that verdigris releases carbon dioxide by heating at 250℃ for 1 hour. Then, we applied the extraction method for archaeological samples of known age and radiocarbon ages were measured. The archaeological ages includes their calibrated radiocarbon ages. The result of archaeological samples shows that verdigris preserves carbon of the atmosphere when it was formed and verdigris is a suitable sample for radiocarbon dating.
