LUMINESCENCE DATING
Abstract
Luminescence dating dates crystalline materials, such as quartz or feldspar, to the last time they were exposed to sufficient heat or sunlight. It is useful for dating prehistoric ceramics and lithics and for dating the deposition of sediments. Dating range is from 100 years or less up to 200–500 000 years or older, at typical precisions of 5–10%. Although not as precise as radiocarbon, luminescence dating has the advantage of dating directly archaeologically relevant events and is often applicable where no other method is practical. Single-grain dating of sediments also has the potential to address turbation processes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
