The volume of human carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen 15 N) isotope data produced in archaeological research has increased markedly recent years. However, knowledge bone remodelling, its impact on variation, the temporal resolution remains poorly understood. Varied remodelling rates mean different elements (e.g., femur rib) produce signals but little examined intra-element variability. This study investigates using osteon population density relationship with at a high resolution, focusing...
Preservation strategies at earthen archaeological sites are challenging to develop and maintain in the long term. Environmental fluctuations, anthropogenic interference, pedological composition only a few factors that can impact deterioration pathways. Owing these complexities, there will never be one-size-fits-all strategy for preserving sites. However, spoil—or backdirt—can employed mitigate many of challenges. Utilizing illustrative case studies Çatalhöyük, Turkey, Vésztő-Mágor, Hungary,...
Abstract Since its introduction to the field of heritage science, oxygen consumption has found multiple applications in assessment artefact stability and examination conservation treatment efficiencies. Early papers identified various factors affecting measurements produced preliminary data on their effects. This paper follows from early research by other workers presents guidance application as a proxy corrosion rate measurement based decade experience at Cardiff University. It examines...
