Abstract
14C dates supplemented by micromorphological studies of Karal rocks are presented. 14C dates, micromorphological analysis and sedimentological processes reveal that the calcite cementation of Karal rock, drift-wood and lithounits have taken place in several phases and not in a single stage. This appears to be the main reason for the discrepancy of 14C dates of the Kara1 and wood samples occurring at the same stratigraphic position and depth.
