Full-vector archaeomagnetic dating of a medieval limekiln at Pinilla Del Valle site (Madrid, Spain) [PDF]
Archaeomagnetic dating based on the full geomagnetic field vector was carried out on a limekiln excavated at Pinilla del Valle archaeological site (Madrid, Spain). The limekiln tradition in this area is largely documented by historical sources for recent

Saint-Irénée (Lyon) : une église funéraire des Ve-VIIe-Xe siècles
The funerary basilica of Saint-Irénée seems to have passed through several states during its construction. This deduction is based on ancient and partial excavation projects, analysis and study of plans of all the ancient sections, recent scouring of the

Archaeomagnetic dating: investigating new materials and techniques [PDF]
This thesis describes the application of archaeomagnetic techniques to the study of archaeological materials from Britain and China. It also explores the compilation and construction of the archaeomagnetic calibration curve, with particular reference to ...

Improving archaeomagnetic dating through new data acquisition and method development [PDF]
The Earth’s magnetic field (or geomagnetic field) has been measured for hundreds of years, starting with maritime observations from logbooks for navigation purposes to present day real-time recording by satellites.

The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces
ABSTRACT This paper presents the first archaeomagnetic dating at Tiwanaku (Andean Altiplano). We compared the geomagnetic field values recorded by a metallurgical furnace against an updated SHAWQ2k‐SH global model and a regional intensity curve, both of which include, for the first time, high‐quality intensity data from the Southern Hemisphere. Results

A Comparison of Radiocarbon and Archaeomagnetic Dating from an Archaeological Site in Spain [PDF]
Reference archaeomagnetic secular variation (SV) curves recently have been proposed for the Iberian Peninsula and may now be used for archaeomagnetic dating.

Abstract This study investigates two burial‐related remagnetizations in the Jaca–Pamplona foreland basin (Southern Pyrenees): one with dual polarity and a positive reversals test, and another with only reverse polarity. These components, labeled C3 and C4 based on their mean unblocking temperatures, were identified from a paleomagnetic analysis of 142 ...

Testing the Accuracy of Paleointensity Estimates Using Experimental Pottery Assemblages
Abstract Paleointensity estimates from archaeological pottery represent a key source of information on Holocene variations in geomagnetic field intensity. Yet, pottery rarely exhibits ideal single‐domain behavior that fully satisfies the theoretical assumptions underlying absolute paleointensity methods.

Pre‐Excavation Identification and Dating of Iron Age Destruction Events
ABSTRACT To maximize extracted data while minimizing excavated areas, archaeologists increasingly use archaeological surveys, geophysical surveys and remote sensing to gain comprehensive regional pictures and decide if and where to excavate. The goal of this effort is to leave sufficient unexcavated areas for future generations and save time and ...

The Role of Geomagnetic Field Intensity in Late Quaternary Evolution of Humans and Large Mammals
Abstract It has long been speculated that biological evolution was influenced by ultraviolet radiation (UVR) reaching the Earth's surface, despite imprecise knowledge of the timing of both UVR flux and evolutionary events. The past strength of Earth's dipole field provides a proxy for UVR flux because of its role in maintaining stratospheric ozone. The
