Evidence

"“Institutiones Philosophicae” (Private Collection) written by Kasper Sagner, Jesuit born on May 1721 in Neumark (Silesia)... dated 1781 CE in Prague."

Remarks

This sample is notable because it was conserved in Prague (average T=8°C) until 1991, and later in Cagliari (average T=17.2°C). This change in environmental conditions is cited as a factor that can increase the relative uncertainty of predicted ageing due to the temperature-dependence of the bond breakage rate (k) (p. 31).
