The radiocarbon calibration curve IntCal04 extends back to 26 cal kyr BP. While several high-resolution
records exist beyond this limit, these data sets exhibit discrepancies of up to several millennia. As a result, no calibration curve
for the time range 26–50 cal kyr BP can be recommended as yet, but in this paper the IntCal04 working group compares the
available data sets and offers a discussion of the information that they hold.

IntCal04 terrestrial radiocarbon age calibration, 0-26 cal kyr BP
(Dept. of Geosciences, University of Arizona, 2004)A new calibration curve for the conversion of radiocarbon ages to calibrated (cal) ages has been constructed and internationally ratified to replace IntCal98, which extended from 0–24 cal kyr BP (Before Present, 0 cal BP ... -

(2006-02)A recently published radiocarbon calibration curve extending to 50,000 cal BP (Fairbanks et al. 2005) is purportedly superior to that generated by the IntCal working group beyond the end of the tree-ring data at 12,400 ... -
