Description :
The AA. present an extended set of C 14 dates on the carbonate fraction of Lithospermum fruits from 4 modern and 11 fossil samples. The data suggest that biogenic carbonate from the fruits of Lithospermum represents suitable material for radiocarbon dating. Biogenic carbonate of Lithospermum fruits, like that of Celtis, represents a new source of chronological information for late Quaternary studies.
