A. author Villalaín Santamaria, Juan José author Arsuaga, Juan Luis author Baquedano, Enrique author Pérez González, Alfredo author 2017-04 Archaeomagnetic dating based on the full geomagnetic field vector was carried out on a limekiln excavated at Pinilla del Valle archaeological site (Madrid, Spain). The limekiln tradition in this area is largely documented by historical sources for recent centuries but the date of the studied kiln's last use was unknown. The combination of mean archaeomagnetic directional and absolute archaeointensity results shows that the kiln was last used between ad 1296 and 1413, in good agreement with two independent radiocarbon dates. This study provides the first archaeomagnetic evidence that the local limekiln tradition dates back to at least late medieval times. Furthermore, the inclusion of these data in the Iberian secular variation curve and geomagnetic field models will help to improve the archaeomagnetic dating technique. 0003-813X http://hdl.handle.net/10259/4587 10.1111/arcm.12245 Archaeomagnetism Archaeointensity Secular variation Thermoremanence Rock and mineral magnetism Middle ages Iberian Peninsula Full-vector archaeomagnetic dating of a medieval limekiln at Pinilla Del Valle site (Madrid, Spain)
