| Abstract | Thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) based dating were applied to ancient firedbricks to derive the chronology of the Thung Tuk archaeological site (TT), southern Thailand. In order to test the feasibility ofbrick dating, the inside and outside portions of the brick mass were dated separately. From the obtained results, the outsideportion of the brick mass was found to be more suitable for luminescence dating than the inside portion since the insidemight be incompletely fired during the production process. Among the brick ages obtained using the outside portion, boththe TL and OSL (with a minimum model) analyses were all in agreement with the known ages of the TT, except for one samplethat appeared to be much younger. This likely represents a subsequent renovation brick. Thus, the assessment of renovationand other imports into sites should be carefully considered in future luminescence dating. |
