English to Spanish translations [PRO] Archaeology | | English term or phrase: carbon 14 dating sample | | A carbon 14 dating sample which was taken from the final destruction layer of the city and dated 1400 BC plus or minus 40 years. The location of the find has been disputed and it is very dangerous to accept just one carbon dating sample anywhere at any time. |

| | Muestra para determinación de la antigüedad por el método del Carbono 14 | Explanation: En realidad no se trata de una muestra de carbono 14 sino de una muestra de un material (en general orgánico) para fechado (o determinación de la antiguedad) por el método del carbono 14.
El carbono tiene un isótopo de peso atómico 12 y uno menos frecuente de peso atómico 14, que es radiactivo. Cuando un ser viviente muere se empieza a desintegrar el carbono 14, de modo que midiendo la proporción entre ambos se puede determinar el tiempo transcurrido desde la muerte del ser viviente.
