“…1050 to 550 BCE, consisting of extremely high-intensity values-virtual axial dipole moments (VADMs; 30) higher than 160 ZAm 2 -and rapid changes in Earth's magnetic field, now known as the Levantine Iron Age geomagnetic Anomaly, (LIAA, [10][11][12]. Recent research has corroborated the existence of the high-intensity values (above 150 ZAm 2 ) of the LIAA as far as Turkey (29), Georgia (31), Bulgaria (32), Italy and Greece (33), Spain (8,34,35), the Canary Islands (36), the Azores (37), and China (38). Based on this evidence, the question of the geographical extent and spread over time of the LIAA has been the subject of discussion and debate (6,8,10,12,32,39,40).…”
