  • Title: ESR analysis of teeth from the palaeoanthropological site of Zhoukoudian, China.
    Author: Grün R, Huang PH, Wu X, Stringer CB, Thorne AG, McCulloch M.
    Journal: J Hum Evol; 1997 Jan; 32(1):83-91. PubMed ID: 9034955.
    Abstract:
    An ESR dating study on teeth collected from layers 3, 6/7 and 10 at Locality 1, Zhoukoudian provides results that are in general agreement with an earlier multi-dating study and confirm an age range of 300-550 ka for the Homo erectus remains in the Peking Man Cave. Uncertainties due to U-uptake and the external gamma dose rates do not allow very precise age estimates for the respective layers.
