Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines transport amphorae of Greek/Aegean types from the 7th–4th c. BCE imported to the Phoenician coastal settlement of Tell el‐Burak, Lebanon. We present a selection of 58 pieces analyzed by typological, chemical (NAA), and petrographic approaches.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Since 2000, archaeological excavations have brought to light the sanctuary of Athena in Castro (Apulia, Italy), including terracotta roofs dated between the 6th and 4th centuries bce. Based on their morphological and stylistic features, it is suggested that the terracotta items were manufactured in the Greek colony of Taras (modern Taranto ...

The origin of amorphous rims on lunar plagioclase grains: Solar wind damage or vapor condensates [PDF]
A distinctive feature of micron sized plagioclase grains from mature lunar soils is a thin (20 to 100 nm) amorphous rim surrounding the grains. These rims were originally described from high voltage electron microscope observations of lunar plagioclase ...

Boreas, EarlyView.This is the first proof of beachrock found on the nearshore of the Gulf of Saros. Beachrock generation was influenced by tectonic activity, geomorphological processes, and sedimentation. The Late Holocene beachrock deposits were altered by co‐seismic deformation.

Petrogenesis of calcic plagioclase megacrysts in Archean rocks [PDF]
Anorthositic complexes with large equidimensional plagioclase grains of highly calcic composition occur in nearly all Archean cratons. Similar plagioclase occur as megacrysts in many Archean sills, dikes, and volcanic flows.
