Book excerpt: Archaeometry is the field of social science that focuses on the utilization of scientific techniques for the analysis of archaeological materials. It plays an important role in locating the potential archaeological sites with the help of remote sensing, aerial photography and geophysical surveys. Zooarchaeology, lithic analysis, archaeometallurgy and palynology are some techniques which are used within the discipline of archaeometry. It is also characterized into several areas including artifact studies, conservation sciences, and physical and chemical dating methods. Some of the important dating techniques used in archaeometry include electron spin resonance, radiocarbon dating, thermoluminescence dating, potassium argon dating, dendrochronology, etc. This book consists of contributions made by international experts. It is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the field of archaeometry. The book is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.

Book Synopsis New Directions in Cypriot Archaeology by : Catherine Kearns
Download or read book New Directions in Cypriot Archaeology written by Catherine Kearns and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-15 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Directions in Cypriot Archaeology highlights current scholarship that employs a range of new techniques, methods, and theoretical approaches to questions related to the archaeology of the prehistoric and protohistoric periods on the island of Cyprus. From revolutions in radiocarbon dating, to the compositional analysis of ceramic remains, to the digital applications used to study landscape histories at broad scales, to rethinking human-environment/climate interrelationships, the last few decades of research on Cyprus invite inquiry into the implications of these novel archaeological methods for the field and its future directions. This edited volume gathers together a new generation of scholars who offer a revealing exploration of these insights as well as challenges to big questions in Cypriot archaeology, such as the rise of social complexity, urban settlement histories, and changes in culture and identity. These enduring topics provide the foundation for investigating the benefits and challenges of twenty-first-century methods and conceptual frameworks. Divided into three main sections related to critical chronological transitions, from earliest prehistory to the development of autonomous kingdoms during the Iron Age, each contribution exposes and engages with a different advance in studies of material culture, absolute dating, paleoenvironmental analysis, and spatial studies using geographic information systems. From rethinking the chronological transitions of the Early Bronze Age, to exploring regional craft production regimes of the Middle and Late Bronze Ages, to locating Iron Age cemeteries through archival topographic maps, these exciting and pioneering authors provide innovative ways of thinking about Cypriot archaeology and its relationship to the wider discipline.

Book excerpt: The book contains the Proceedings of the 37th International Symposium on Archaeometry, 12th May 2008, Siena, Italy. The aim of the Symposium is to promote the development and use of scientific techniques in order to extract archaeological and historical information from cultural heritage and the paleoenvironment. It involves all Natural Sciences and all types of objects and materials related with human activity. Papers deal with the development and/or application of scientific techniques for extracting information related to human activities of the past, including the biological nature of man himself and the environment in which he lived. Topics include: Field Archaeology and Intergrated Site Studies; Archaeo-chronometry including recent developments in Radiocarbon Dating; Human - Environment Interactions including Geoarchaeology, Palaeoclimate studies, Landscape Archaeology, Environmental reconstructions, etc.; Bioarchaeology; Food preparation and consumption in Antiquity; the Technology and Provenance of Stone, Plaster, Pigments;Ceramics, Glazes, Glass and Vitreous Materials, Metals and Metallurgical Ceramics; and Micro/nano diagnostic techniques.

Book Synopsis Recent Advances in Laser Ablation ICP-MS for Archaeology by : Laure Dussubieux
Download or read book Recent Advances in Laser Ablation ICP-MS for Archaeology written by Laure Dussubieux and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores different aspects of LA-ICP-MS (laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry). It presents a large array of new analytical protocols for elemental or isotope analysis. LA-ICP-MS is a powerful tool that combines a sampling device able to remove very small quantities of material without leaving visible damage at the surface of an object. Furthermore, it functions as a sensitive analytical instrument that measures, within a few seconds, a wide range of isotopes in inorganic samples. Determining the elemental or the isotopic composition of ancient material is essential to address questions related to ancient technology or provenance and therefore aids archaeologists in reconstructing exchange networks for goods, people and ideas. Recent improvements of LA-ICP-MS have opened new avenues of research that are explored in this volume.
Download or read book Archaeometry written by Yannis Maniatis and published by Elsevier Publishing Company. This book was released on 1989 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archaeometry is a growing branch of science, which aims to develop scientific techniques and methodology in order to obtain accurate and objective information from available archaeological material. This information, combined with the results of archaeological research, leads to a better knowledge of ancient cultural societies and their evolution. This book provides a unique opportunity for readers wishing to be kept abreast of current research and future trends in archeometry, by summarizing the most recent advances in the field. It consists of a number of papers presented at the 25th International Symposium on Archaeometry, held at the National Research Centre for Physical Sciences Demokritos'' in Athens, 19-23 May 1986. The papers cover a very wide range of archaeological materials and scientific techniques currently used in archaeometry, and present novel applications on specific archaeological problems. Topics include dating, provenance, technology of ceramics and metals, and prospection. A number of pure archaeological papers are also included, dealing with aspects of the transition from the Late Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age in the Aegean.

Book Synopsis Recent Advances in Science and Technology of Materials by : Adlai Bishay
Download or read book Recent Advances in Science and Technology of Materials written by Adlai Bishay and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If an ion in a crystal is replaced by an impurity ion with a different charge, compensation for the charge difference must be accomplished. This is usually done by an intrinsic defect, i. e. a lattice vacancy or interstitial host ion, in such a way to balance the excess or deficit of charge. The introduction of cation vacan cies along with divalent cation impurities in alkali halides is a familiar example. If these crystals are carefully annealed, nearly all of the compensating defects migrate to the impurity ions to form impurity-defect complexes. It is the behavior of these complexes that are the principal concern in this paper. Almost invariably such complexes are dipolar in character, and when subjected to an electric or mechanical stress field, they will tend to realign to an orienta tion of lower energy provided the thermal activation is sufficiently great. If the complex consists of an impurity-vacancy couple, re orientation may occur either by the vacancy moving around the impu rity or by an exchange of positions of the partners. In general the activation energy for these two distinct reorientation paths is different. If the complex consists of an impurity-interstitial couple, interchange of positions is unlikely and reorientation is considered to occur exclusively by the motion of the interstitial around the vacancy.
