Ever wonder what happens to all those radiocarbon samples we send off to the lab? Why, we get dates, of course! And what to we do with those dates? We put them in a database! Tim Perttula and Robert Selden have compiled all of the radiocarbon dates they could get their hands on for East Texas and are presenting them to you in a handy Excel spreadsheet. Download them and sort to your hearts content. You will find the links on the Publications Page of this website (look on menu bar)!

Hello. After several months, the new CTA website is now ready to launch. Please feel free to have a look around. You may notice that some of the pages have very little information, as I am in the process of acquiring content from the committee chairs and other members. If you are in charge of a committee, grant, or award, PLEASE take a look at what I have posted here and let me know of any changes or additions. I hope to be contacting you soon for content. Thanks!
