Radiocarbon dating of Sus scrofa (pig) remains from archaeological sites in the Philippines and Pacific Islands

This data set contains information on the age of Sus scrofa (pig) bones and teeth from archaeological sites in the Philippines and the Pacific Islands as estimated by AMS radiocarbon dating. Samples were selected for radiocarbon dating and palaeogenomic analysis from the following archaeological sites in the Philippines and Pacific Islands (Palau): Pamayan (Philippines), Savidug (Philippines) and Uchul a Rois (Palau). Radiocarbon dating was carried out at the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit following published protocols. This work was supported by NERC grant NE/S00078X/1.

Statement
Bone and tooth samples were collected by collaborating archaeologists and sent to the PalaeoBARN for analyses: ● Uchul A Rois, Palau (site date range: 900-1450 AD) ● Pamayan, Philippines (site date range: 1420–1630 AD) ● Savidug Dune Site, Philippines (600-1000 BP) Following aDNA analysis, samples were submitted to the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit for dating analysis.
