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

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
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.
