The aim of this study is to test the suitability for luminescence dating of polymineral sediment samples taken from Kayseri, turkey, an important area for both geologists and archaeologists. Feldspars isolated from samples were heated at different temperatures for 10 min to optimise The preheat temperature. The optimal pre-heat temperature was found to be 220 deg. C. for 10 min.
