“…In this case the mortar is about 22% of the wall volume and it has significantly lower radioactivity. As it was shown earlier, however, similar mortar content (radioactivity not lower than 0.5 of brick radioactivity) can influence the age rather in minor range (uncertainty of ~1%) (Chruścińska et al, 2008).

“…In order to estimate the equivalent dose (D e ), 100-200 µm diameter quartz grains, were extracted from bricks by the standard procedure including heavy liquid separation and etching in 40% HF (Chruścińska et al, 2008). All OSL measurements were carried out using RISØ TL/OSL System TL-DA-20 equipped with a conventional Hoya U-340 filter and EMI 9235QB photomultiplier.…”

“…The investigations of this material have also an important contribution into the development of retrospective dosimetry especially during examining the consequences of the Chernobyl accident (Bailiff, 1995;Hütt et al, 1993;Bailiff et al, 2000). Brick dating, however, in comparison to pottery or geological sediment dating is rather rarely reported in literature (Goedicke et al, 1981;Bailiff, 2007;Chruścińska et al, 2008;Blain et al, 2011;Guibert et al, 2009;Blain et al, 2007;Roque et al, 2002;Roque et al, 2004;Bevilacqua et al, 1999;Martini and Sibilia, 2001). Applying the luminescence method to establish the history of significant objects may make luminescence dating more popular among architecture researchers.…”

Luminescence dating of bricks from the gothic Saint James Church in Toruń

Saint James Church in Toruń is one of the most important gothic monuments in Poland. The date of the beginning of its construction is known from historical reports but the earlier history of the site remains undiscovered. During the archaeological excavations in years 2010 and 2011 five brick samples were collected for luminescence dating as well as four additional samples from the brick surroundings for the dose rate estimation. The equivalent dose was determined by TL and OSL methods. The TL results differ significantly from the OSL results but the last ones are verified by historical knowledge and radiocarbon dating. Establishing the dose rate from gamma rays needs a special attention because of the complex course of the foundations of the church. The details of the applied approach are presented in the current work. The results obtained indicate that a solid brick construction existed at the site of the presbytery of the Saint James Church before it was build.

“…Despite this, the dating of burnt materials were and still are determined in many laboratories (e.g. Benea et al, 2007;Blain et al, 2011;Chruścińska et al, 2008;Preusser et al, 2008;Sánchez et al, 2008;Wintle, 2008).

Thermoluminescent dating of the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age pottery on sites in Kłyżów and Jarosław (SE Poland)

Abstract:The absolute chronology of Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages in Polish territories is a result of long-term and complex research. Here, we have investigated the absolute dating of two sites, namely Kłyżów, a cemetery of the Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture, and Jarosław, a settlement spanning from the late phase of the former to Pomeranian culture, possibly with Jastorf elements. Having been spurred by promising results of thermoluminescence (TL) dating of medieval and Przeworsk materials, we have employed it in those situations, where no other chronometric methods seem to be efficient. TL dating has been combined with typological analysis of the dated pottery and, partially, with radiocarbon method. Albeit the produced TL dates do not represent the level of sought-for fine chronological resolution, they indicate the temporal trends and corroborate the typological research. Our study has shown the potential of TL dating for periods with plateaus on 14 C calibration curve. We also have dealt with unexpected TL ages and suggested some solutions of the problem. Finally, we have demonstrated that the condition sine qua non for archaeological interpretation of TL dates is a thorough stylistic-chronological analysis of dated pottery and clear understanding of relations between chronometric dates and the archaeological event to be dated.
