Key Points

Magnetic susceptibility fails to reliably identify pedogenic grains, indicating its limitations.
Residue material from magnetic extraction effectively separates pedogenic grains from other materials.
The study highlights the challenges in using frequency-dependent susceptibility for magnetic contributions.
Understanding these limitations is crucial for future archaeological investigations using magnetic techniques.

Implication

Analysis reveals that magnetic susceptibility struggles to identify pedogenic grains, suggesting further work is needed.

Abstract

Pedogenic grains cannot be reliably identified by frequency-dependent susceptibility, Residue material obtained after magnetic extraction separates the pedogenic grains
