Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • There are a set of linkages for Cretan MMIB-II Kamares ware with Egyptian Middle Kingdom contexts, and a set of linkages for material from the LMIB/LHIIA through LHIIIB periods with NK contexts.

    “there are a set of linkages for Cretan MMIB-II Kamares ware with Egyptian Middle Kingdom contexts, and then a set of linkages for material from the LMIB/LHIIA through LHIIIB periods with NK contexts [6-11, 25-30, 84, 162-168, 188]”
  • Even at the extreme hypothetical adjustment range, the traditional date range of the Santorini eruption ~1500 BCE, or any date after ~1530 BCE, appears highly improbable.

    “Even at the extreme hypothetical adjustment range (Figs. 5, H to K, and 6, A to F), the traditional date range of the Santorini eruption ~1500 BCE (57), or any date after ~1530 BCE, appears highly improbable.”
  • The hypothetical scenario of AA BCP data forming a new IntCal baseline plus a Mediterranean positive offset, or large LLGPC to AMS 14C adjustments, does not return to the traditional "low" archaeological chronology.

    “Such a scenario [or the hypothetical large LLGPC to AMS 14C adjustments considered in Fig. 5 (H to K)], interestingly, does not, however, return us to the traditional “low” archaeological chronology (19, 57).”

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.
