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 ...

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 ...

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

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.

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.

Modeling geomagnetic spikes: the Levantine Iron Age anomaly
The Levantine Iron Age anomaly (LIAA) is a regional short-decadal geomagnetic strength field variation located at the Levantine region characterized by high intensities with maximum virtual axial dipole moments around 190 ZAm2. It has been constrained by

One of the main challenges of paleomagnetic research is to obtain high‐resolution geomagnetic field intensity reconstructions. For the last millennia, these reconstructions are mostly based on archeomagnetic data.

The necessity of data availability in maintaining the value and longevity of paleointensity results
Asserting the reliability of paleointensity estimates, or comparing relative reliabilities between vastly or subtly different results is a key challenge for paleointensity studies, which often leaves interpretations of these data rife with ambiguities ...
