THREE MIDDLE KINGDOM STELAE AT THE GRAND EGYPTIAN MUSEUM GIZA (GEM 14255, 15090 AND 3656) [PDF]

Shedet, 2022
This paper studies three stelae which came from Abydos. They are preserved at Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza (GEM 14255, 15090and 3656). These stelae were previously kept in the Egyptian Museum Cairo (CGC 20031, 20027and 20556). These stelae I investigate

A fast‐integrated x‐ray emission spectrometer dedicated to the investigation of Pt presence in gold Celtic coins (3rd–1st century BCE)

X-Ray Spectrometry, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 401-411, November/December 2023., 2023
Abstract With this study, we present the development of a transportable x‐ray emission spectrometer (XES) that was realized in a net time of 20 h, in order to verify the presence of Platinum (Pt) in gold Celtic coins belonging to 3rd–1st century BCE. Prior to the XES study, measurements using Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled with Energy Dispersive ...

Putting power into practice: Collaborative monitoring of a threatened marsupial predator using a power‐optimized design

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 5, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
In our recently published study in Conservation Science and Practice (Moore et al. (2023) Conservation Science and Practice, 5, p. e12881), we demonstrated that optimized monitoring designs using camera traps are a substantially cheaper approach to detecting occupancy declines in northern quolls (Dasyurus hallucatus) with high statistical power when ...

Lead isotope analysis of Meroitic period glass from Nubia with LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS

Archaeometry, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 1148-1167, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Analytical studies of glass found at sites in Nubia (ancient Sudan) have shown the variety of glass present during ancient times. This study examines Meroitic period (c.350 bce–350 ce) glass from Nubia: here categorized as low‐lead and high‐lead.

Once were warriors: Challenging occupation preconceptions in Lebanese weapon‐associated burials (Middle Bronze Age, Sidon)

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 1155-1168, November/December 2021., 2021
Abstract Objectives Found throughout the ancient Near East during the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 2000–1600 BCE), many modern scholars emphasize that weapon‐associated burials are ideological and symbolic associations, not reflections of occupation. However, the term “warrior burial” still carries interpretive value that misinforms popular perception.

From commodity to money: The rise of silver coinage around the Ancient Mediterranean (sixth–first centuries bce)

Archaeometry, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 142-155, February 2021., 2021
The reasons why the Western Mediterranean, especially Carthage and Rome, resisted monetization relative to the Eastern Mediterranean are still unclear. We address this question by combining lead (Pb) and silver (Ag) isotope abundances in silver coinage from the Aegean, Magna Graecia, Carthage and Roman Republic. The clear relationships observed between

Low CO/CO₂ ratios of comet 67P measured at the Abydos landing site by the Ptolemy mass spectrometer [PDF]

, 2015
Comets are generally considered to contain the best-preserved material from the beginning of our planetary system, although the mechanism of their formation and subsequent evolution are still poorly understood.
