Raman Analysis of Roman Mosaics From the Upper Guadalquivir Valley (Spain)

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
This work is focused on the Raman analysis of two Roman mosaics from Jaén (Spain) using portable and benchtop equipment, complemented by elemental analysis using EDXRF and petrographic analysis. The results obtained have provided a detailed characterisation of the tesserae.

Changes in the production and use of pottery from the Early Neolithic to the ‘secondary products revolution’: some evidence from LN Makriyalos, Northern Greece

Documenta Praehistorica, 2002
Recent developments in pottery studies have altered the way archaeologists handle and interpret prehistoric pottery. The technology and use of pottery, the symbolic and social meaning of the pot are considered as anthropological phenomena, the products ...

The Stability of Manganese Oxides Under Laser Irradiation During Raman Analyses: II. Layer Structures

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Manganese oxides are important geomaterials with diverse technological applications. Here, we investigate the behaviour of the most common Mn oxides with layer structures under irradiation by a 532‐nm laser, with intensity ranging from 23 µW/µm2 to 36.8 mW/µm2.

Beyond the technological chain

Archeologické Rozhledy, 2017
Formal and technological attributes of pottery mirror potters’ habitus, actions, and decisions inhibited or stimulated by users of pottery. The variability of these attributes in time and space reflects networks of producers embedded in a complex social

Non‐invasive Analyses of an Etruscan Fibula From Vulci (Italy): The Benefits of a Combination of Micro‐Raman Spectroscopy, 3D Reconstruction Through X‐Ray Microscopy and ED‐XRF With Monte Carlo Simulation

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
This study analyzed an Etruscan bronze fibula through non‐destructive techniques. The patina and alloy were examined using micro‐Raman spectroscopy and ED‐XRF with Monte Carlo simulations, revealing the formation of corrosion products such as brochantite and sampleite and a binary Cu‐Sn alloy composition.

Fostering Collaboration and Stakeholder Engagement for Sustainable Decent Work Policies in Africa: Lessons From Ghana

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To meet the 169 targets of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it has been argued that governments alone are unable to deal with its associated challenges. Consequently, studies have shown how expanding governance to public, private, and civil society organizations (CSO) across scales could help make significant contributions to ...

Сhronology of early Neolithic materials of the site Sakhtysh IIa (Central Russia)

Documenta Praehistorica, 2017
The Upper Volga culture (UVC) in the Volga and Oka basin is one of the earliest pottery cultures in Eastern Europe. The Sakhtysh IIa site is attributed to the core area of the UVC, with pottery encompassing all stages of this culture.

MicroCT reveals domesticated rice (Oryza sativa) within pottery sherds from early Neolithic sites (4150–3265 cal BP) in Southeast Asia

Scientific Reports, 2017
Rice (Oryza sativa) was domesticated in the Yangtze Valley region at least 6000–8000 years ago, yet the timing of dispersal of domesticated rice to Southeast Asia is contentious.
