Archeomagnetic records are an important source of information on the past behavior of the geomagnetic field. Frequently, however, coeval archeomagnetic intensity (archeointensity) datasets from nearby locations display significant discrepancies ...

Low Geomagnetic Field Intensity in Southern China 6,000 Years Ago
The West Pacific Anomaly (WPA), a low geomagnetic field anomaly observed in the 16th to 18th centuries, represents a recently recognized and complex feature of Earth's magnetic field.

First Full Vector Archeomagnetic Data From Northern Mexico
Several regional secular variation curves of the geomagnetic field have been proposed for Mexico over the last millennia. Despite a fairly large number of archeomagnetic data, these curves remain imprecise because of an uneven quality and geographic ...

First archeointensity results from Portuguese potteries (1550-1750 AD) [PDF]
Abstract Geomagnetic field variations at archeomagnetic timescales can be obtained from well-dated heated structures and archeological potsherds. Here, we present the first archeointensity results obtained on Portuguese ceramics (1550 to 1750 AD) collected at Brazilian archeological sites.

Archeointensity of the Four Corners Region of the American Southwest
New paleointensity experiments were conducted using the IZZI protocol (a variation on the Thellier‐Thellier method) on 289 specimens from 54 baked pottery fragments collected from four archeological sites in the American Southwest. Anisotropy experiments

Magnetic characteristics and archeointensity determination on Mesoamerican Pre-Columbian Pottery from Quiahuiztlan, Veracruz, Mexico [PDF]
We report a detailed archeomagnetic investigation on pre-Columbian potteries from Quiahuiztlan, Veracruz, from ~900 AD to 1521 AD. Archeological samples analyzed by modern magnetic techniques carry a stable univectorial thermoremanent magnetization under

Further Evidence of High Intensity During the Levantine Iron Age Anomaly in Southwestern Europe: Full Vector Archeomagnetic Dating of an Early Iron Age Dwelling From Western Spain [PDF]
Abstract We report an archeomagnetic study from the Early Iron Age archeological site of Cerro de San Vicente (Salamanca, Spain). The studied materials were sampled from one roundhouse and its central fireplace, a surrounding burnt floor, and slags with a twofold objective.

Abstract Since the mid-19th century, direct measurements of both intensity and directions of the Earth's magnetic field have been available, allowing an accurate determination of its spatio-temporal variations. Prior to this time, between ∼1600 and 1840, only direct directional measurements are available.

The cooling‐rate effect on microwave archeointensity estimates [PDF]
AbstractNew microwave (MW) paleointensity data on historical bricks from Northeast Brazil presented a bias toward higher fields when compared to previous cooling‐rate corrected double‐heating paleointensity estimates; the same relates to the previously reported values for pottery from Southwestern Pacific islands. A simple theoretical approach suggests
