The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 317-329, June 2026.
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.

“Flames Over Persepolis”: New Scientific Evidence Supporting Historical Perspectives

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 421-433, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the burning of Persepolis Terrace, historically attributed to Alexander III in 330 bce. A review of classical accounts and excavation reports, combined with diagnostic surveys, confirms the fire's historicity and provides novel insights.

Investigating Technology and Raw Materials Source of the Archaic and Classical Architectural Terracottas From the Athenaion in Castro (Apulia, Italy)

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 512-526, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Since 2000, archaeological excavations have brought to light the sanctuary of Athena in Castro (Apulia, Italy), including terracotta roofs dated between the 6th and 4th centuries bce. Based on their morphological and stylistic features, it is suggested that the terracotta items were manufactured in the Greek colony of Taras (modern Taranto ...

New Magnetite Reference Material for SIMS δ18O Measurements and a Study of Precision and Accuracy Due to Crystal Orientation Effects

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 391-406, June 2026.
Key Points A new magnetite reference material (PF21mt) is available for δ18O measurements by SIMS. Reproducibility of measurement results in two laboratories suggest orientation bias of ±2‰ (2s) at 20 keV. Repeatability improves to ±1‰ (2s) when using a 13 keV protocol, suggesting reduced orientation bias. In situ isotope ratio measurements provide the

New Potential Haematite and Magnetite Reference Materials for Iron Isotope Measurements by Solution Nebulisation MC‐ICP‐MS and by In Situ ns‐LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 407-418, June 2026.
Key Points Two haematite and magnetite materials were developed as potential Fe isotope reference materials. Solution and in situ LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS analyses yielded consistent δ56Fe values. Both materials are isotopically homogeneous and suitable for in situ Fe isotope calibration.
