Developing archaeomagnetic dating in Britain.

open access: yes, 2011
Archaeomagnetism is an area of research that utilises the magnetic properties of archaeological materials to date past human activity. This research aimed to use the evidence of past geomagnetism, as recorded by archaeological and geological materials, to identify and characterise short timescale changes in the Earth’s magnetic field. This contribution

Archaeomagnetic Dating and the Bonito Phase Chronology

Journal of Archaeological Science, 1994
Abstract A method is presented for the reanalysis of a large archaeomagnetic data set from the Chaco Canyon region in northwest New Mexico, U.S.A., for which virtual geomagnetic pole (VGP) position data have not been reported. Reanalysis based upon the archaeomagnetic curve model SWCV590-CSU resulted in large age ranges.

Inclination flattening effect in highly anisotropic archaeological structures from Iberia. Influence on archaeomagnetic dating

open access: yesPhysics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 2021
International audienceIn directional archaeomagnetic studies, it is rarely analysed whether the combustion structures display anisotropy of their thermoremanent magnetization (ATRM). It has been observed that, in specific cases like thin baked clays from

Advances in archaeomagnetic dating in Britain: New data, new approaches and a new calibration curve [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Archaeological Science, 2017
Archaeomagnetic dating offers a valuable chronological tool for archaeological investigations, particularly for dating fired material. The method depends on the establishment of a dated record of secular variation of the Earth's magnetic field and this ...

Dating a medieval pottery workshop of the city of Burgos (Spain): Archaeomagnetic and archaeological evidences

open access: yesPhysics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 2021
Here we report a detailed archaeomagnetic and rock-magnetic study of a pottery kiln from Burgos (Spain) to reconstruct its burning conditions and date its last use and abandonment age.

Contemporary archaeomagnetic results and the accuracy of archaeomagnetic dates

Geoarchaeology, 1987
AbstractWhen multiple archaeomagnetic samples are collected from the same site or component, it is tempting to look for evidence of temporal differences between the collected features. This paper addresses the issue of the practical limits to confidently identifying temporal differences based on archaeomagnetic sample information. Three controlled data

Archaeomagnetic Dating in the American Southwest

American Antiquity, 1980
Although archaeomagnetic dating seems straightforward in principle, there are practical limitations which are not generally understood. Unlike rate-dependent processes such as isotopic dating, archaeomagnetic dating requires the construction of a master record of geomagnetic secular variation. Error is inherent in such a master curve due to statistical

Archaeomagnetic Dating at Pueblo Grande

Journal of Archaeological Science, 1994
Abstract One hundred and seventy-four archaeomagnetic samples from burned features were collected at Pueblo Grande, a Hohokam site in Phoenix, Arizona. This large data set yields an excellent opportunity to evaluate the potential contribution of archaeomagnetism to solving chronometric problems.

Developments in archaeomagnetic dating in Britain

Journal of Archaeological Science, 1988
Abstract A brief review of the principles of directional archaeomagnetism, and its effectiveness compared with other dating methods, is followed by descriptions of three developments: (1) new sampling and analysis techniques; (2) extension of the range of datable materials; (3) revised reference curves for Britain covering the period 1000 cal BC ...
