Centre for Community Archaeology
The Centre for Community Archaeology (CCA)
Established in 2002, the CCA is the School’s in-house archaeological fieldwork unit comprising a team of eight professional archaeologists.
Over the past 14 years the CCA has undertaken over 400 investigations across Northern Ireland. The primary aim of the CCA is to record the past, with academic reports compiled for each project undertaken. In addition, we disseminate the results of our work to the public through general–reader texts and lectures.

Centre for Climate, the Environment and Chronology
14CHRONO Centre for Climate, the Environment and Chronology
The AMS facility lies at the heart of the 14CHRONO Centre providing high precision radiocarbon analyses for research in a wide range of disciplines and commercial projects.
Our research programmes investigate past climate and environmental change, past human society, and modern environments. Examples include research on radiocarbon calibration (IntCal13), reservoir corrections (marine and freshwater), ocean circulation changes, lake carbon burial and flux, and chronology of past environmental and societal changes.
Software and database tools
We host software for calibration (CALIB, CALIBomb), ΔR calculation, age depth modelling (BACON and clam) and databases (IntCal13, Marine Radiocarbon Reservoir Database).
The 14CHRONO Centre has 30 years’ experience in radiocarbon dating. It is renowned for maintaining a high level of quality control and availability of resources, ensuring fast and accurate results. Our postgraduate students and postdoctoral researchers receive training ranging from sample selection through to construction of age models.
