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.

Testing the Accuracy of Paleointensity Estimates Using Experimental Pottery Assemblages

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Paleointensity estimates from archaeological pottery represent a key source of information on Holocene variations in geomagnetic field intensity. Yet, pottery rarely exhibits ideal single‐domain behavior that fully satisfies the theoretical assumptions underlying absolute paleointensity methods.

The Oldest Traces of Alcoholic Beverages in the Border Zone of the North and East European Plains

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 153-172, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Analysis of organic compounds preserved on pottery from the Bell Beaker community and the initial phase of the Trzciniec Cultural Sphere in the border zone of the Eastern and North European Plains was prompted by traces of alcoholic beverages found in contextually and formally analogous discoveries of more westerly provenance.
