  • The link between the MBA chronology and the Gordion chronology is problematic at best, resulting from an attempt to connect the two via a dendrochronological bridge, a Juniperus spp. chronology from Porsuk.

    “But the link between the MBA chronology and the Gordion chronology is problematic at best, resulting from an attempt to connect the two via a dendrochronological ‘bridge’, a Juniperus spp. chronology from Porsuk (POR) (southeast Anatolia) [21–23, 31, 40, 42].”

  • Our work moves the date of a previously reported unusual tree-ring growth anomaly in the Porsuk chronology-tentatively associated with the effects of the Santorini/Thera volcanic eruption-to an earlier period, meaning that this growth-ring anomaly is not associated with the Santorini event.

    “Further, our work moves the date of a previously reported unusual tree-ring growth anomaly in the Porsuk chronology–tentatively associated with the effects of the Santorini/Thera volcanic eruption [21, 22, 46]–to an earlier period, meaning that this growth-ring anomaly is not associated with the Santorini event.”

  • If the previously published crossdates and positions were correct, then all the chronologies should yield approximately the same calendar age ranges for RY776; they do not.

    “If the previously published crossdates and positions were correct (e.g. [21–23, 31, 40, 41]), then all the chronologies should yield approximately the same calendar age ranges for RY776. They do not.”

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.
