Concept for adding radiocarbon data: "laboratory + sample No.: 14C year ± range BP" 

 *E18* (strategraphic unit) -> *P3* (has note) -> *E62* (String) -> *P3* (has type) -> *E55* (Type) named "radiocarbon dating" 

 The string field value would be a JSON notation, example: laboratory: identifies the laboratory that tested the sample, and the sample ID 
 <pre> sample no.: ID given to each sample by laboratory 
 {"labId": "VERA", "specId": "23432A", "radiocarbonYear": 2040, "error": 30, "timeScale": "BP"} 14C year: the laboratory's determination of the age of the sample, in radiocarbon years 
 </pre> range: the laboratory's estimate of the error in the age, at 1σ confidence 
 BP: "before present" 

 *Update* 
 We can take a look at "IOSACal":https://iosacal.readthedocs.io/ which is an    is an open source tool for radiocarbon calibration, can create plots and is written in Python
