Abstract
Modern archaeology is fully supported by advances in science and technology. With the development of chemical and biochemical analyses, the task of the archaeological chemist has become more complex than ever over the past decade. In the symposium on archaeological chemistry held at the American Chemical Society National Meeting in Anaheim, California, from April 2-6, 1995, three noted scientists who have made seminal contributions in their respective fields presented an accompanying pedagogical symposium to provide introductory information on how modern chemistry and biochemistry have revolutionized modern archaeological studies at a molecular level. These three scientists and their presentations were: Stanley Ambrose, "Advances in Stable Isotope Analysis in Dietary Reconstruction"; Svante Pääbo, "Ancient DNA as a Means to Study the History of Humans and Extinct Creatures"; and Robert Hedges, "Radiocarbon Dating of Archaeological Bone by Accelerator Mass Spectrometry.
