In the Levant, the termination of the LIAA was constrained to the 7th century BCE by moderate field values measured from Judean stamped pottery and pottery from Syria.
“In the Levant, the termination of the LIAA was constrained to the 7th century BCE by moderate field values measured from Judean stamped pottery [20] and pottery from Syria [66, 70].”

The intensity results are ca. 20 ZAm2 higher than those measured from pottery sherds dated to 600-550 BCE from Sheikh Hamad.
“Our intensity results are ca. 20 ZAm2 higher than those measured from a collection of pottery sherds dated to 600–550 BCE (a brown symbol marked “S” in Fig 8C), from room CW in the “Red House” at the Sheikh Hamad archaeological site in Syria [66, 68, 73, 74].”

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.
