  • There is increasing evidence for devastating Thera tsunami impacts in the Aegean.

    “increasing evidence for devastating Thera tsunami impacts in the Aegean [3, 45, 52-54, 56, 73]”
  • The individual 14C dates of Palaikastro range from 3390 ± 35 BP (GrA-30339) to 3310 ± 35 BP (GrA-30336).

    “The individual 14C dates of Palaikastro range from 3390 ± 35 BP (GrA-30339) to 3310 ± 35 BP (GrA-30336)”

    From The Minoan Thera eruption predates Pharaoh Ahmose: Radiocarbon dating of Egyptian 17th to early 18th Dynasty museum objects (2025) · cites this paper as [8]

    The available indexed passages, labeled Abstract (no page number), identify the Palaikastro paper and list radiocarbon dating as a keyword, but give no individual dates. Searches for GrA-30339, 3390 BP, and 3310 BP found no passage stating the claimed range or sample IDs. (LLM, conf=0.76)

  • The material from Crete (Bruins et al. 2008, 2009) should also not have been affected by volcanic CO2.

    “The material from Crete (Bruins et al. 2008(Bruins et al. , 2009) ) should also not have been affected by volcanic C0 2 .”

    From The Chronology of Tell El-Daba: A Crucial Meeting Point of<sup>14</sup>C Dating, Archaeology, and Egyptology in the 2nd Millennium BC (2012) · cites this paper as Bruins et al. 2008

    The available Abstract-labelled passages identify Crete and radiocarbon dating as topics, but do not discuss whether volcanic CO2 affected the material. Searches for CO2, volcanic gas contamination, and radiocarbon reservoir effects found no passage addressing that point. (LLM, conf=0.68)

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.
