| Resumen≠ | Thermoluminescence (TL) dating is a chronometric technique that determines the age of pottery, ceramics, and sediments by measuring light emitted when heated to high temperatures. Pioneered by Michael Aitken in the 1960s, it quantifies the accumulated radiation dose stored in mineral crystal lattices. The method revolutionized archaeological dating by enabling scientists to date ceramic vessels and fired clay objects directly, providing absolute chronologies for human occupation sites worldwide. | Use-wear analysis (also called microwear or tool-use analysis) is a method that infers the function of stone tools from microscopic wear patterns on their cutting edges and surfaces. Pioneered by Lawrence Keeley in the 1970s-1980s, this technique examines damage patterns, polishes, and edge rounding produced as tools contact different materials during use. By analyzing these wear patterns, archaeologists can determine whether a tool was used to cut plant material, meat, bone, hide, or wood—revealing detailed information about task specialization and subsistence practices in prehistoric societies. |
