Integrated Tree-Ring-Radiocarbon High-Resolution Timeframe to Resolve Earlier Second Millennium BCE Mesopotamian Chronology
TLDR
This work re-dating tree-ring-sequenced 14C time-series for Kültepe and Acemhöyük is compatible only with the so-called Middle Chronology and not with the rival High, Low or New Chronologies.
Palaeomagnetic analysis on pottery as indicator of the pyroclastic flow deposits temperature: new data and statistical interpretation from the Minoan eruption of Santorini, Greece.
Dendrochemical Evidence of the 1781 Eruption of Mount Hood, Oregon
Dendrochronological responses to an eruption of Mount Hood, Oregon, including new dendrochemical evidence, are documented here. Mount Hood, a stratovolcano of the Cascade Volcanic Arc (Fig. 1a), is…
Volcanoes, ice-cores and tree-rings: one story or two?
Good archaeology relies on ever more precise dates – obtainable, notably, from ice-cores and dendrochronology. These each provide year-by-year sequences, but they must be anchored at some point to…
Radiocarbon Dating History: Early Days, Questions, and Problems Met
W F Libby's new dating method from the 1940s, based on experience in physics and chemistry, opened possibilities to check and revise chronologies built on other principles than radioactive decay.…
Multiple Dendrochronological Signals Indicate the Eruption of ParíCutin Volcano, Michoacán, Mexico
Abstract The eruption of Parícutin (1943–1952), a cinder cone volcano in Michoacán, Mexico, caused dendrochronological and dendrochemical responses that might be useful as general dating tools for…
Proposed re‐dating of the European ice core chronology by seven years prior to the 7th century AD
[1] Progress in the study of past climate change requires integration of historical documentation, tree-ring data and ice-core chemistry. Larsen et al. (2008) re-evaluate volcanic acid signals in the…
