Summary In the last decades, palaeomagnetic research has provided important information about the past variation of the Earth's magnetic field (EMF) from its origin to the present day. However, questions regarding the origin & evolution of the EMF as well as the frequency & spatial distribution of its variations still remain open to debate. This text provides new insights into the study of the temporal & spatial evolution of the EMF presenting new data from palaeomagnetic & rock magnetic studies of archaeological materials, sediments & lavas. The papers presented cover a wide range of topics related to archaeology, stratigraphy & climate, including new data from several parts of the world, such as Europe, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, India & the Baltic Sea.
