Geoff Duller β€˜Slugs and snails: A novel luminescence dating method applied to Palaeolithic sites, C & N France’
β€œLuminescence 101” 😊 – age range: <1 Ma.
NEW: BIOGENIC CALCITE using TL! (e.g. opercula, slug plates) up to 3-4 Ma 😊😊! Tested on multiple French sites
So exciting 🀩

Really looking forward to giving this Short Course in Luminescence Dating with Geoff Duller: a hands-on course to equip you with practical & theoretical skills to design your own luminescence dating projects & assess published work. Ample time for discussion too, which makes it so much fun to give.
