AMOURINS SHELLMOUND: UNCOVERING BIODIVERSITY AND CHRONOLOGY THROUGH CHARCOAL ANALYSES
Radiocarbon, 2021ABSTRACTIn paleoenvironmental research, several proxies are used to reconstruct climate and vegetation. The establishment of a chronological framework allows for the association of different proxies and correlation of events happening in different geographic areas.

Dating of shellmound at Chiba-city in Japan
Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1993Abstract The dating of the shellmound at Chiba-city was determined using an electron spin resonance method. Prior to dating, the effect of crushing or grinding of shell was studied in relation to the ESR signal. To eliminate the grinding or crushing effect, the samples were etched with hydrochloric acid solution.

Otolith-Based Chronology of Brazilian Shellmounds
Radiocarbon, 2019ABSTRACTThe radiocarbon (14C) chronology of hunter-fisher-gatherers’ archaeological settlements along the Brazilian coast is usually based on mollusk shells, charcoal from hearths, and eventually human bones. However, fish otoliths are found in several archaeological contexts and may represent a reliable option as a chronological record.
