Multicentennial regional oak chronologies for northern Italy: an updating

• Abstract:

  The Author describes the construction of 3 regional chronologies based on crossdated tree-ring series from woods coming from archaeological sites in north-eastern Italy. The series have been dendrochronologically crossdated and the chronologies dated by 14C wigglematching. Two of them belong to prehistory: the time span of GARDA 1 is 2204-1829 ± 10y. cal BC and the time span of GARDA 3 is 1897-1678 ± 14y. cal BC. The early medieval chronology VENETO 1 spans the period 447-773 ± 21y. cal AD. They allow to date exactly building activities on the Bronze Age pile-dwelling villages in the region of the lake Garda and the Early Medieval land-reclamation structures in the Lagoon of Venice and the Venetian plain.
