Spartan dependence on Laurion lead
Archaeometry, Volume 65, Issue 5, Page 1044-1058, October 2023., 2023 Abstract This article presents contextual evidence for the interpretation of lead isotope analysis (LIA) of artefacts from the Archaic Greek Mediterranean. In particular, I make a response to Wood’s suggestion in Archaeometry (2022, first view, ‘Other ways to examine the finances behind the birth of Classical Greece’) that the end of the production of ...

New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 6, Page 2126-2137, September 2023., 2023 Summary The response of Posidonia oceanica meadows to global warming of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, where the increase in sea surface temperature (SST) is particularly severe, is poorly investigated. Here, we reconstructed the long‐term P. oceanica production in 60 meadows along the Greek Seas over two decades (1997–2018), using lepidochronology. We

Other ways to examine the finances behind the birth of Classical Greece
Archaeometry, Volume 65, Issue 3, Page 570-586, June 2023., 2023 Abstract Although the birth of Classical Greece is often attributed to the constitutional reforms of Cleisthenes (508/507 BCE), the achievement of an economically minded government under the Peisistratid tyrant Hippias (527–510 BCE) potentially paved the way by advancing Athenian silver for exportation in international trade.

International Journal of Food Science &Technology, Volume 57, Issue 11, Page 7076-7084, November 2022., 2022 Thyme honeys, upon dilution, showed substantial accumulation of H2O2 and gluconic acid that caused (a) intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and (b) cell membrane damage to MRSA strains. Summary The antibacterial potential of honey has been of great scientific interest.

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 185, Issue 5, Page 589-602, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Background Cereal cultivars vary in root traits, and it can be proposed that wild forms and old cultivars are more adapted to using organic nitrogen (N) sources. Aims Investigating N uptake from cover crop (CC) rhizodeposits by wheat and barley of different domestication level and their wild relatives, we expected a more efficient N uptake by ...

THE POZO MORO RELIEFS (CHINCHILLA, SPAIN): A MEDITERRANEAN HERO BETWEEN EAST AND WEST
Oxford Journal of Archaeology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 250-267, August 2021., 2021 Summary At Pozo Moro, archaeologists discovered the oldest series of architectural and sculptural remains currently known in Iberian culture. It is traditionally assumed that they were part of a single ten‐meters‐high tower that was built – and immediately collapsed – in the late sixth century BC, some fifty years before an Iberian necropolis ...

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

From refugia to contact: Pine processionary moth hybrid zone in a complex biogeographic setting
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 1623-1638, February 2020., 2020 In this study, we show evidences of natural hybridization between two pine processionary moth species in Turkey by using mitochondrial and nuclear markers. We found asymmetric hybridization in a limited zone and tried to explain how the complex geographic history of the region might contribute to the observed genetic pattern.

Archaeometry, Volume 62, Issue 1, Page 81-108, February 2020., 2020 This study presents the results of compositional and lead isotopic analysis of coinage issued by the Greek colonies of Syracuse, Metapontum, Taras and Thurium in the fifth to third centuries bce. The data suggest that each colony in Magna Graecia, regardless of its motherland roots and despite ongoing conflicts between the cities, had access to the ...
