    This study investigates the upper-limit ages of the Tsurugidake Landslides, which resulted from the collapse of a lava dome on the northern foot of Kurikoma Volcano, Tohoku Region, Japan. Age constraints were determined using tephrochronology and radiocarbon (14C) date of wetland and aeolian deposits covering the landslide masses. The results indicate that the Tsurugidake Landslides A, B, and C were formed before 5.3, 3.5 and 1.0 cal ka (corresponding to AD915; Age of To-a tephra), respectively. The Tsurugidake Lava Dome, formed by the latest magma eruption of Kurikoma Volcano in 8.1 – 6.4 cal ka, collapsed within ~2,800 years after its emplacement.
