Abstract

Optically stimulated luminescence ages of quartz extracts in Neolithic pits at Kissonerga-Mylouthkia, south-western Cyprus, correlate with published AMS results (calibrated radiocarbon dates range between 8740 and 6690 BP; OSL dates between 9600 and 7700 BP). The single aliquot-regenerative-dose protocol proposed by Murray and Wintle (2000) was used to generate equivalent dose (De) distribution histograms for each sample. A consistent set of equivalent doses were obtained from each pit.
