N2  - Age determination by the luminescence dating method is based on measuringthe luminescence of samples that contain quartz or similar minerals. Accurate determinationof the luminescence signal is essential and closely related to the sample preparation.Many kinds of techniques are used for sample preparation in Optically Stimulated Luminescenceand Thermoluminescence dating. In this study, different sample preparationtechniques, including crushing by hand or mortar, sieving by hand or sieve shaker andchemical application were compared. Different groups of samples were prepared and thenthe OSL and TL luminescence signals were examined. According to results, the bestsample preparation techniques were determined.
