Date
[edit]The intro dates the event to 180. Yet the article suggests dates of 130, 186 and 230. It should therefore be stated that the event occurred between 130 and 230.Royalcourtier (talk) 20:45, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
Most recent date is 232 +/- 10 AD (see Hogg et al., 2012 doi: 10.1177/0959683611425551; Lowe et al., 2013 doi:10.1016/j.quascirev.2012.11.022) i don't know how to update this in the wiki sorry — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.217.46.61 (talk) 03:12, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
It is reasonably well accepted that the reports from Rome and China represent good evidence of the date of the eruption. The radio carbon date is of interest but it's accuracy is very questionable given the other evidence. This is well discussed in the article. Andrewgprout (talk) 05:45, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
Date issue has been dealt with better by using two 2023 academic reviews. The Rome and China dating evidence is much poorer than claimed in last comment having been postulated over a generation ago, before current quality ice core studies. ChaseKiwi (talk) 11:13, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
