“…ESR's potential to date a wide variety of sample types will undoubtedly continue to make it an important research tool in late Cenozoic settings. ESR can date many materials that are commonly encountered in geological, paleontological, and archaeological contexts, and new applications are constantly being tested (e.g., Debuyst et al, 2001;Dibble et al, 2013aDibble et al, , 2013bFukuchi, 2001;Godfrey-Smith et al, 2003;Gotze & Plotze, 1997;Lee & Schwarcz, 2001;Molod'kov, 2001;Patnaik et al, 2009;Potter et al, 2004;Schellman & Radtke, 2001; Rink et al, 2003;Shih et al, 2002;Skinner et al, 2001bSkinner et al, , 2005aTani et al, 1998;Ulusoy 2003Ulusoy , 2004Whitehead et al, 2002;Woda et al, 2001). In archaeological contexts, ESR has dramatically changed our understanding of human origins and cultures (e.g., see references in Blackwell, 2001Blackwell, , 2006Falguères, 2003).…”
