Thermoluminescence dating
Videos
Thermoluminescence dating is the determination, by means of measuring the accumulated radiation dose, of the time elapsed since material containing crystalline minerals was either heated or exposed to

Rehydroxylation dating

Rehydroxylation dating is a developing method for dating fired-clay ceramics. This new concept relies on a key property of ceramic materials, in which they expand and gain mass over time. After a cera
