If there is a separate paper discussing the scientific merits of using post-1720 sediments from this region as a temperature proxy, then it meets Mann's criteria for inclusion.
The earlier data comes from some sort of proxy analysis (ice cores, tree rings, sediments, etc.) While we know these proxies generally change with temperature, there are still a lot of questions as to their accuracy and, perhaps more importantly for us here, whether they vary linearly or have any sort of attenuation of the peaks.
