title: ESR dating of tooth enamel: comparison with U-series, FT and TL dating at the Peking man site.
abstract: Deer tooth samples from Zhoukoudian, the Peking Man Cave, were studied. Non-linear fitting is used to determine AD, from which ESR ages were calculated by both the disequilibria model (DU) and linear uptake model (LU). Comparison of ESR ages with those from U-series, FT and TL methods show that the enamel of deer teeth is a suitable material for ESR dating.
