Summary

[This dataset is embargoed until December 8, 2025]. 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.
