Paleomagnetic intensity of bricks from a Roman ruin in Slovakia dated as 2nd-3rd century A.D. was measured. The Thelliers' method with triple heatings was applied to two bricks named sample A and B. The paleointensity from sample A was measured at the Toyo University and National Institute of Polar Research. The results from the two laboratories agreed roughly with the average of 60.7+ or -7.6 mu T. The paleointensity from sample B was 51.4+ or -15.0 mu T, which was measured at the Toyo University. The magnetic properties suggest that the larger scatter of sample B compared with sample A is possibly caused by heterogeneous oxidization created during the baking process of the sample B brick. |
