Abstract

Knowledge is given of a new C-14 determination due to the cooperation of prof. F. FLIRI, Innsbruck, and of dr. W. G. MOOK, Groningen. It refers to a Juniperus branch found in lacustrine beds near Sciaves (Schabs, South Tyrol) at 800 m a.s.l., dated 64 400 ± 1000 years BP (GrN-7754 Schabs 3) after enrichment. The author's old field observations and the prof. FLIRI'S new researches are briefly discussed. The remarkable thickness of the old Würm or possibly pre-Würm deposits in this area and the internal position of the site with respect to the Alpine chain are emphasized.
