The first series of C14 dates obtained in the C14 Laboratory of the above Institute, since it became operational in August 1961, are presented. The chemical and counting procedures adopted for the measurement of C14 in our laboratory have been described in some detail (Kusumgar et al., 1962). For the sake of completeness some points relevant to the determination of dates are described below.
