A bayesian approach to wiggle-matching

Journal of Archaeological Science, 1995
Abstract “Wiggle-matching” is a technique developed to provide calendar dates for a series of samples of known deposition rate using the now well-established high-precision radiocarbon calibration curve. In this paper we describe how the technique may be formulated within the Bayesian framework for statistical analysis and thereby permit the ...

RADIOCARBON DATING OF OGLAKHTY GRAVE USING A WIGGLE MATCHING METHOD

Archaeology, Ethnology and Anthropology of Eurasia, 2010
The absolute age of early Tashtyk grave 4 at Oglakhty, Khakassia, like that of most Tashtyk burial grounds, has been a matter of debate. The distinctive feature of this assemblage is the excellent state of preservation of artifacts made from organic materials.

Radiocarbon Wiggle-matching for the Aging of the Hayakawa Ignimbrite from Niigata Yakeyama Volcano

open access: yesJournal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 2011
Two wood trunks, one charred and 75 years old and the other not charred and more than 199 years old, were collected from Hayakawa ignimbrite of Niigata Yakeyama Volcano. They were investigated using the radiocarbon wiggle-matching method to determine the age of the eruption.

14C AMS wiggle matching of raised bog deposits and models of peat accumulation

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2000
High-resolution Accelerator Mass Spectrometer (AMS) C-14 dates of selected plant macrofossils from the raised bog Engberts-dijksvenen (Eastern Netherlands) show century-scale wiggles analogous to the radiocarbon calibration curve. We used three relative time scales, viz., based on depth, mass, and pollen concentration, respectively, to match the peat ...

'Rev Thomas Bayes:Get Ready to Wiggle' — Bayesian Modelling, Radiocarbon Wiggle-Matching, and the North Wing of Baguley Hall

Vernacular Architecture, 2007
AbstractThe principles of the Bayesian approach for modelling chronologies has been outlined in Bayliss (this volume). This paper applies these methods to a 'real world' problem of dating a phase of construction where the potential for treering dating is limited. The accuracy and precision that these new techniques can deliver is demonstrated. Bayesian

A wiggle-match age for the Millennium eruption of Tianchi Volcano at Changbaishan, Northeastern China

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2012
Abstract The Tianchi Volcano, located on the border between China and North Korea, produced a massive Plinian eruption of Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) 7 around 1000 AD, which is referred to as “the Millennium eruption of Tianchi Volcano”. Until now, this volcanic eruption has not been well dated.

Radiocarbon wiggle-match dating of proglacial lake sediments – Implications for the 8.2ka event

Quaternary Geochronology, 2009
The problem of insufficient age-control limits the utilisation of the 8.2 ka BP event for modelling freshwater forcing in climate change studies. High-resolution radiocarbon dates, magnetic susceptibility and lithostratigraphic evidence from a lake sediment core from Nedre Hervavatnet located at Sygnefjell in western Norway provide a record of the ...
