Featuring dendrochronological measurements from five oak samples taken from a prehistoric water well discovered at Fazantlaan in Luchen. The analysis indicates the samples originate from the same tree, for which a master curve (25.122.B01) was created. No specific dating for the Iron Age or other periods was achieved.
Use Cases
- Analyze the master curve (25.122.B01) to compare against other regional dendrochronological reference chronologies.
- Study the high inter-sample similarity measurement to understand wood sourcing and tree growth patterns at the site.
- Use the oak (Quercus sp.) sample data for methodological research on dating prehistoric water well constructions.
Strengths
- Data is derived from five oak samples, providing multiple data points for analysis.
- The master curve (25.122.B01) is noted for its good quality.
- The dataset is associated with a specific archaeological context at Fazantlaan in Luchen.
Limitations
- The dataset is small, consisting of measurements from only five samples.
- No definitive dating for the Iron Age or other periods was possible from the analysis.
- The specific measurement data and file formats are unknown.
