Cellulose and Lignin Nano-Scale Consolidants for Waterlogged Archaeological Wood

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2020
Waterlogged archaeological wood comes from submerged archaeological sites (in lake, sea, river, or wetland) or from land waterlogged sites. Even if the wooden object seems to have maintained the original size and shape, the wood is more or less severely decayed because of chemical and biological factors which modify the normal ratio of cellulose and ...

Wet Season Carbon (δ13C) and Nitrogen (δ15N) Composition of Modern Plants as Isotopic Framework for Agropastoral and Palaeoecological Studies in Northern Greece

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mediterranean wetlands are one of Europe's most vital and endangered biodiversity hotspots. This study determined the carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope values of modern plants to construct an isotopic framework by which to contextualize agropastoral management in and around past wetland ecosystems.

GATHERING THE HARVEST: THE COLLECTION AND TRANSPORTATION OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE IN ROMAN CAMBRIDGESHIRE AND PETERBOROUGH

Oxford Journal of Archaeology, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 68-92, February 2026.
Summary When Rome colonized Britain, it created a transport network spanning the province. This transformed the Iron Age economy, creating large new markets which in turn supported specialized manufacturing. This article explores the impact of transportation on Roman agriculture – the core of the Romano‐British economy.

Geoarchaeological Investigation of Early Neolithic Lagoonal Fringe Landscapes in the Netherlands

Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Coastal wetlands have historically been portrayed as too marginal for early crop cultivation during the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition due to their dynamic hydrology, low elevation, and poor drainage. However, growing evidence suggests that these environments played a crucial role in the spread of agriculture. We examined buried and submerged
