Archaeological applications of naturally occurring nanomagnets
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2005 The ubiquitous presence of iron minerals within the soils and sediments forming archaeological sites can often provide a valuable record of past human activity. These records are formed through the alteration of weakly magnetic minerals to fine grained iron oxides, such as magnetite or maghaemite, that leave an almost indelible magnetic ''finger print''

Complementarity-Preserving Fracture Morphology for Archaeological Fragments [PDF]
International Symposium on Mathematical Morphology 2019 (ISMM'19), 2019 We propose to employ scale spaces of mathematical morphology to hierarchically simplify fracture surfaces of complementarity fitting archaeological fragments. This representation preserves complementarity and is insensitive to different kinds of abrasion affecting the exact fitting of the original fragments.

Solving Archaeological Puzzles [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Puzzle solving is a difficult problem in its own right, even when the pieces are all square and build up a natural image. But what if these ideal conditions do not hold? One such application domain is archaeology, where restoring an artifact from its fragments is highly important. From the point of view of computer vision, archaeological puzzle solving

Pansharpening of PRISMA products for archaeological prospection [PDF]
IGARSS 2024 - 2024 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote
Sensing SymposiumHyperspectral data recorded from satellite platforms are often ill-suited for geo-archaeological prospection due to low spatial resolution. The established potential of hyperspectral data from airborne sensors in identifying archaeological features has, on the other side, generated increased interest in enhancing hyperspectral data to achieve higher ...

Exploring the Psychological Basis for Transitions in the Archaeological Record [PDF]
In Tracy B. Henley, Matthew Rossano, and Edward P. Kardas (Eds.)
Handbook of Cognitive Archaeology: A Psychological Framework. (2019), 2018 In lieu of an abstract here is the first paragraph: No other species remotely approaches the human capacity for the cultural evolution of novelty that is accumulative, adaptive, and open-ended (i.e., with no a priori limit on the size or scope of possibilities).

Nature Management and Protection of Archaeological Sites in Estonia
Internet Archaeology, 2023 Archaeological monuments are mostly situated in the natural environment and in Estonia are sometimes also protected under the Nature Conservation Act, meaning they are double protected and double managed as well. The system has its challenges, benefits and dangers, since the protection regimes for nature or heritage protection sites are slightly ...

Archaeology of active galaxies across the electromagnetic spectrum [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Analytical and numerical galaxy-formation models indicate that active galactic nuclei (AGNs) likely play a prominent role in the formation and evolution of galaxies. However, quantifying this effect requires knowledge of how the nuclear activity proceeds throughout the life of a galaxy, whether it alternates with periods of quiescence and, if so, on ...
