In using the thermoremanent magnetisation (TRM) of material heated in antiquity (usually pottery, bricks, stones or lava) to evaluate the magnitude of the geomagnetic field at the time of heating, little attention (apart from an observation by Thellier1) has been given to the possibility that results are affected by the rate at which the sample is cooling while the TRM is being acquired. We report here an experimental observation of the effect in archaeological baked clay; it parallels the theoretical prediction of Dodson and McClelland-Brown2 in respect of geological material.
