Abstract

In this paper, we present an overview of radiocarbon dating contributions from Groningen, concerning 9 sites from around the Mediterranean region: Israel, Sinai (Egypt), Jordan, Spain, Tunisia, and Italy. Full date lists of the 9 sites are presented. Our (14)C dates are discussed in terms of present actual chronological debates. We show that all our (14)C dates coherently support a "high chronology" for the Iron Age in each respective area of the Mediterranean region.
