The third series of C14 measurements made at the University of Saskatchewan is reported in the present list. The equipment and methods have been described previously (Saskatchewan II). The modern reference standard was 0.950 times the activity of the NBS oxalic-acid standard. The activity of the wood standard used previously corresponded to 0.955 ± 0.009 of the NBS standard, so that no corrections are required to the previous date lists to bring them into line.
