Maps of eastern Africa highlighting the disparities in spatial distribution of scientific dates by (a) country and (b) scientific dating technique (14C, OSL and IRSL, TL, and OH); and distribution of dates based on the four quality control measures: (c) stratigraphic integrity and reliability, (d) 14C dates from plant material, (e) 14C dates from faunal material, and (f) 14C dates accuracy in pre-treatment procedure. Note: Class A dates are the most reliable. We used QGIS version 3.28.9545, Natural Earth546, CSV data files547, Adobe Photoshop548, Inkscape app549, to generate Fig. 1 maps.
