What a mess — there’s no way to date “the end of the Bronze Age” unless there’s some kind of final bronze workshop (and not just one, for that matter) which could then be RC dated. This headline and the claims in the paper are a nonsense, at best.
The RC dating of the site is worthwhile, assuming there are stratified artifacts sync’ing with, for example, other cultures and civilizations. Past practice, however, has been to attribute mistakes in the conventional pseudochronology to gerbils, family heirlooms, and copycat artists.
Without playing it as it tells the truth, this study will be another example of playing it as they lie.
I would think that the end of the Bronze age would be characterized by the first Iron mine and smithy.
Is there also a Greek Orthodox dating or a Protestant dating?
Actually, I recall hearing c. 1628 for the date of the eruption of Thera more than 25 years ago.
