Pre‐Excavation Identification and Dating of Iron Age Destruction Events

Archaeological Prospection, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 1021-1030, October/December 2025.
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 ...

Dating an ancient spring tunnel using archaeological artefacts functioning as nuclei of cave pearls

Archaeometry, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 748-772, June 2025.
Abstract Cave pearls are spherical concentric speleothems growing radially around nuclei in shallow pools saturated with calcite. They are very rare in the Southern Levant. We present a unique assemblage of 50 cave pearls found in the Iron Age Joweizeh artificial spring tunnel in the Jerusalem Hills of Israel. Some of these deposits represent the first

A new conservative and robust Bayesian approach for the event date model in chronology building

Archaeometry, Volume 67, Issue S1, Page 84-109, June 2025.
Abstract Dating techniques in archaeology have undergone considerable development in recent decades. Today, the major challenge for archaeologists remains the reliability and precision of the date attributed to an artefact or an archaeological event. To this end, it is essential for archaeologists to cross‐reference information from different sources ...

Obtaining High‐Resolution Magnetic Records From Speleothems Using Magnetic Microscopy

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Speleothems are mineral deposits capable of recording detrital and/or chemical remanent magnetization at annual timescales. They can offer high‐resolution paleomagnetic records of short‐term variations in Earth's magnetic field, crucial for understanding the evolution of the dynamo.
