Dream is an offshore flame: Notes on archaeology and belonging
Abstract Set within an archaeology lab in Dunedin, Aotearoa, this creative non‐fiction piece traces the search for dwelling through the meticulous, repetitive labor of everyday practice. The narrative finds belonging not as a static identity, but as a continuous, tactile engagement with the material world.

The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces
ABSTRACT This paper presents the first archaeomagnetic dating at Tiwanaku (Andean Altiplano). We compared the geomagnetic field values recorded by a metallurgical furnace against an updated SHAWQ2k‐SH global model and a regional intensity curve, both of which include, for the first time, high‐quality intensity data from the Southern Hemisphere. Results

ABSTRACT This study presents the first GC‐MS–based analyses of wide horizontal rim vessels with well‐defined funerary contexts, from Middle Bronze Age Portugal (Quinta do Amorim 2 and Pego). Organic residues from two vessels revealed ruminant fats and plant oils, alongside molecular markers of heat exposure.

Medicine for the Material World
ABSTRACT It is clear that many of the inorganic materials of antiquity have been used both as medicines for human ills and also as agents in technological processes. This paper speculates that there might have been a stronger link between these two functions in the past, based on the concept of “active agents”—materials that are efficacious at curing ...

Water sorption of dental resin composites: Is a new method the future?
Abstract Intraoral, diffusion‐controlled water sorption leads to dimensional expansion and mechanical degradation over time. Measurement of small quantities of water in dental resin composites (RCs) is challenging, as current techniques rely on weighing approaches. Here, we evaluate Karl‐Fischer Titration (KFT) and thermogravimetry (TG) as alternatives
