Dorchester Palisaded Enclosure, Greyhound Yard and Church Street, Dorchester, Dorset: Radiocarbon Dating and Chronological Modelling
Author(s): Peter Marshall, A Bayliss, Michael Dee, Irka Hajdas, Susan Greaney
Radiocarbon dating and chronological modelling of samples from the Dorchester palisaded enclosure, recovered from excavations at Greyhound Yard and Church Street, Dorchester, Dorset were undertaken in support of a PhD funded by the AHRC through the South, West and Wales Doctoral Training Partnership at Cardiff University undertaken by Susan Greaney. The results suggest that the Dorchester palisaded enclosure was constructed in 2470–2430 cal BC (95% probability) and probably in 2490–2360 cal BC (68% probability).
