An Overview of the Use of Absolute Dating Techniques in Ancient Construction Materials [PDF]
The reconstruction of the chronology of historical buildings is a tricky issue, as usually there are not historical documents that allow the assessment of construction phases, and some materials are hardly reliable for the use of dating techniques (e.g.,

Absolute dating of the European Neolithic using the 5259 BC rapid 14C excursion [PDF]
Abrupt radiocarbon (14C) excursions, or Miyake events, in sequences of radiocarbon measurements from calendar-dated tree-rings provide opportunities to assign absolute calendar dates to undated wood samples from contexts across history and prehistory ...

Absolute Dating of Fault-Gouge Material Using Isothermal Thermoluminescence: An Example from the Nojima Fault Zone, SW Japan [PDF]
Establishing the absolute age of palaeoearthquakes is of great significance for the assessment of the seismicity and seismic hazards of a region. As such, several different geochronological techniques to date earthquake-related material have been ...

HBCO Correction: Its Impact on Archaeological Absolute Dating [PDF]
When constructing absolute chronologies in archaeology, the aim is to detect archaeological events. In this respect, we draw attention to the relation between the radiocarbon ages of human bone collagen samples and the absolute dating evidence on the age at death.

Absolute Dating of Marine Sediments
The use of radio-isotope has made it possible and as prevalent as now to determine the absolute date of a marine sediments. Among works so far made public in this specific field of marine geology those pertinent to the Quaternary are reviewed in the present paper.Dating of sediments from the continental shelves by C14 revealed that the continental ...

U–Pb dating on calcite paleosol nodules: first absolute age constraints on the Miocene continental succession of the Paris Basin [PDF]
Continental sedimentary successions are typically less complete and more poorly preserved than the marine record, leading to limited correlations between basins.

Absolute Dating Techniques [PDF]
In their report on the ages of crystalline rocks from the Apollo 14 mission, Husain, Sutter, and Schaeffer present some important results using the ^(40)Ar-^(39)Ar method. This technique, which has been used by several other workers, depends critically on the use of mineral or rock standards of precisely known ^(40)Ar/K ratio.

Dating and Cultural Processes: Interpretative Potential and Scientificity
Since the beginning of archaeology as a discipline, the control of time, or in other words the placement of specific phenomena in a certain time frame has represented the basis of all research.
