Luminescence geochronology and evaluation of the environmental dose rate for the Neanderthal deposits at Vindija Cave (Northern Croatia)
Here we describe our OSL dating campaign at Vindija Cave, a key archaeological site in central Europe that contains a 12 m-thick sequence of cave-mouth sediments spanning the Middle to Upper Palaeolithic. The cave is famous for its Neanderthal and modern human remains, and Neanderthal DNA has been retrieved from several of the bones, but the chronology and interpretation of these records remain a matter of lively discussion. Here we focus on the dosimetry of Vindija Cave and give a detailed account of the environmental dose rate using in-situ and high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometry, alpha- and beta-particle counting, and XRF spectrometry. We also discuss the cave sedimentology, as post-depositional disturbance of the cave-mouth sediments has been recognised.
