Abstract
Terrestrial macrofossils selected from laminated sediment of Lake Gościąż were dated by AMS. Thus, part of the floating varve chronology (FVC) (Goślar et al. 1993) between radiocarbon ages of 4225 +/45 and 7740 +/85 BP can be compared and placed on the 14C calibration curve. As a result of our dating, the top of the FVC is now dated between 3120 and 3300 cal BF, i.e., 3210 +/90 cal BP.
