Since 1979, TL-analysis of ceramics from such differnt areas as, for example, Chinese, Antique, African or Pre-Columbien culture underlines great experience. Latest computer technology supports and completes analysis. Thus defination of age is possible with +/- 15-35% exactitude. This is more than sufficient to identify modern imitations.

The TL authencity determination fulfill two neceesarry postulates of  scientific dating methods (absolute dating)

1: Zhe process must run at a constant speed,the reaction speed must not depend on external conditions or environmental Influencers.

2: The reaction must start at the same time of manufacture of the object to be dated.

           All workprocesses of the TL analyses for the preparation of TL reports with the measuring instruments Lexysmart Freiberg Inst. of the Kotalla Laboratory are calibrated and certified according to ISO 9001 VQZ Bonn.

When analyzing your artefact only small quantities are needed for sampling.The sample quantities are minimal (50-200 mg).The TL-analysis provides some information about the last time of heating to the samples!
