Download or read book Phytoliths written by Dolores R. Piperno and published by Rowman Altamira. This book was released on 2006-01-30 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of phytoliths—inorganic silica remnants plants leave behind when they die and decay—has developed dramatically over the last twenty years. New publications have documented a diverse array of phytoliths from many regions around the globe, while new understandings have emerged as to how and why plants produce phytoliths. Together, these developments make phytoliths a powerful tool in reconstructing past environments and human uses of plants. In Phytoliths, Dolores Piperno makes sense of the discipline for both those working directly with phytoliths in the field or the lab as well as for those who rely on the results of phytolith studies for their own research. Including over a hundred images, Piperno's book will be of great benefit to archaeologists and paleobotanists in the classroom or the lab.

Book Synopsis Plants, People and Places by : Marco Madella
Download or read book Plants, People and Places written by Marco Madella and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2007-02-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phytoliths - rigid microscopic bodies that occur in most plant species - have gone a long way since that day when Darwin became curious about a fine powder deposited on the instruments of the HMS Beagle. This fascinating subject started because of curiosity, and in that respect it was a good start since curiosity is probably the most important drive behind first-rate research. Fortunately curiosity is still present in phytolith research; the articles in this book are full of curiosity and ingenuity. Phytolith research has grown since the times of Darwin and in the last three decades has bloomed. The papers in this collection span most of the application of phytolith analysis (from archaeology, palaeoenvironmental studies and botany, to name just some) and the majority of them were presented at the 4th International Meeting on Phytolith Research that was held in Cambridge (UK) in August 2002.

Book Synopsis Phytolith Systematics by : Susan C. Mulholland
Download or read book Phytolith Systematics written by Susan C. Mulholland and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the first in theAdvances in Archaeological and Museum Science series sponsored by the Society for Archaeological Sciences. The purpose of this biennial series is to provide summaries of advances in closely defined topics in archaeometry, archaeological science, environmental archaeology, preservation technology and museum conservation. The Society for Archaeological Sciences (SAS) exists to encourage interdisci plinary collaboration between archaeologists and colleagues in the natural and physical sciences. SAS members are drawn from many disciplinary fields. However, they all share a common belief that physical science techniques and methods constitute an essential component of archaeological field and laboratory studies. The General Editors wish to express their appreciation to Renee S. Kra and Frances D. Moskovitz of Radiocarbon for their special expertise and assistance in the production of this volume. We also appreciate the contribution of the two reviewers for their excellent comments and suggestions. The General Editor responsible for undertaking the development of this volume was R. E. Taylor.

Book Synopsis Phytolith Analysis Applied to Pleistocene-Holocene Archaeological Sites in the Australian Arid Zone by : Doreen Bowdery
Download or read book Phytolith Analysis Applied to Pleistocene-Holocene Archaeological Sites in the Australian Arid Zone written by Doreen Bowdery and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 1998 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To explore the potential for phytolith analysis in Australian arid zone sediments silica phytoliths (plant microfossils) were isolated from archaeological sediments collected at three arid zone sites. Line drawings of phytoliths extracted from archaeological deposits and contemporary plant material provided a reference point for purposes of classification, analysis and quantification. Various changes in these phytoliths were observed from the earliest occupation through to the Holocene, which correlate with changes in lithic artefacts. In particular, the appearance of grass seed grinders was recorded in the cultural assemblage after the introduction of new grass taxa. The timing of the change has some correlation with the final inundation of the land barrier to the north and sea level stabilisation. Other analyses suggest a continuous reduction in precipitation. These positive results indicate that phytolith analysis has great potential in arid areas, providing a window into vegetation history and contributing data to an archaeological site history.

Book excerpt: This is a methodological guide to the use of plant opal phytolith analysis in paleoenvironmental and paleoecological reconstruction. It is the first book-length treatment of this promising technique, which has undergone rapid development within the past few years and is now beginning to be used with considerable success by paleobotanists who serve the archaeological and paleontological research communities. It will be mandatory reading for all paleobotanists, paleoecologists, and archaeological scientists.
