Bwigg: An Internet facility for Bayesian radiocarbon wiggle-matching
Internet Archaeology, 2003 The integrated calibration of radiocarbon determinations and contextual information based on Bayesian statistical inference is known as 'Bayesian calibration'.

Wiggle-Matching Using Known-Age Pine from Jermyn Street, London [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 2009 A slice of pine from the period covered by single-year calibration data (Stuiver 1993) was selected to serve as part of the quality assurance procedures of the English Heritage radiocarbon dating program, following successful wiggle-matching of 14C measurements from structural 15th century English oak timbers (Hamilton et al. 2007). The timber selected

WIGGLE MATCHING WITH CORRELATIONS [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 2022 AbstractWiggle matching is an important and powerful technique in radiocarbon dating that can be used to improve the precision of calendar age estimates. All radiocarbon determinations require calibration to provide calendar age estimates. This calibration is achieved by comparing the determinations against a calibration curve $\mu ( \cdot )$ to ...

Radiocarbon Wiggle-Match Dating of Bulk Sediments—How Accurate Can It Be? [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 2013 We used the radiocarbon wiggle-match dating technique to date the varved sediments of Lake Gyltigesjon in southern Sweden with the main aim to construct an accurate chronology covering the period between about 3000 and 2000 cal BP. Wiggle-match dating was applied to bulk sediments to evaluate the possibility of constructing accurate chronologies in the

The “Amsterdam Castle”: A Case Study of Wiggle Matching and the Proper Calibration Curve [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 1995 We have performed a high-precision 14C wiggle-matching study on two oak beams from the “Castle of Amsterdam”. These beams are also dated by dendrochronology. Our two dating methods can only be made consistent using the recommended calibration curve (1986) instead of the revised one (1993).

A numerical approach to 14C wiggle-match dating of organic deposits: best fits and confidence intervals [PDF]
Quaternary Science Reviews, 2003 C-14 wiggle-match dating (WMD) of peat deposits uses the non-linear relationship between C-14 age and calendar age to match the shape of a sequence of closely spaced peat C-14 dates with the C-14 calibration curve. A numerical approach to WMD enables the quantitative assessment of various possible wiggle-match solutions and of calendar year confidence ...

Wiggle Matching Analysis of the Doors of Santa Sabina in Rome
RIHA Journal, 2019 The doors of Santa Sabina on Rome’s Aventine Hill are the most complete Late Antique doors surviving today. Widely studied in the last 150 years, the question of their dating has never been completely resolved.

Radiocarbon Wiggle-Matching of Japanese Historical Materials with a Possible Systematic Age Offset [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 2007 Progress in radiocarbon accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) techniques enables much more access to wiggle-matching techniques for high-precision 14C dating with relatively low costs than before. Recently, we have applied wiggle-matching for a number of wood samples where dendrochronology is difficult because of various limitations imposed for dendro ...

High-Precision "Wiggle-Matching" in Radiocarbon Dating
Journal of Archaeological Science, 1994 Abstract We have applied the wiggle-matching high-precision radiocarbon dating technique to a log recovered from an Early Kofun Period site in western Japan. Using the decadal radiocarbon calibration curves of Stuiver & Becker (1986, Radiocarbon 28 (2B), 863-910) on four sequential decades of rings, we determined the cutting date of AD 320 to a ...

‘Wiggle Matching’ Radiocarbon Dates [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 2001 This paper covers three different methods of matching radiocarbon dates to the ‘wiggles’ of the calibration curve in those situations where the age difference between the 14C dates is known. These methods are most often applied to tree-ring sequences. The simplest approach is to use a classical Chi-squared fit of the 14C data to the 14C curve.
