This paper discusses the use of a small ultraportable hyperspectral camera in VIS-NIR (Visible-Near Infrared) range for archaeological fieldwork and its hardware, data processing workflows, spectral information that can be used situ screening. Hyperspectral imaging is widespread, non-destructive analytical technique various disciplines highlighting invisible patterns mapping signatures selected targets. In archaeology, it has mostly been applied remote sensing satellite imagery to uncover...
During the early autumn of 2014 a field-based near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy study was carried out at Swedish and Norwegian Stone Age rock painting sites. This article presents results from one them, namely Flatruet, Härjedalen, Sweden. Here, NIR measurements were conducted using 908–1676 nm wavelength range to gather 479 spectra: 427 paintings 52 local lithology background. The whole dataset analysed principal component analysis (PCA) four components extracted explaining 98.5% (PC1), 1.4%...
Abstract An ultraportable hyperspectral camera operating in the Vis–NIR range (400–1000 nm) was used this study for non-invasive analysis of a selection Italian maiolica wares and sherds from Museo Nazionale del Bargello Florence, Italy. The studied objects included authentic archaeological sherds, nineteenth-century forgeries, ceramics uncertain origin. primary aim to evaluate efficacy imaging (HSI) spectroscopy combined with multivariate examining highly refractive three-dimensional glazed...
This study proposes a method for the classification of lithic raw materials by means hyperspectral imaging, non-destructive fast analytical technique. The information potential this approach was tested on dwelling site dated to mid-late Mesolithic (7200–5800 BP) at Lillsjön, Ångermanland, Sweden. A dataset tools and flakes (2612 objects) made quartz quartzite, analyzed using shortwave infrared imaging system. performed applying multivariate statistical models. random test set 55 artefacts...
A comprehensive study has been launched in the medieval fortress of Carcassonne involving a cooperation between universities Umea and Rennes, research institute IRSTEA Montpell ...
Abstract This article is an introductory contribution to our Special Issue Reconsidering the Chaîne Opératoire: Towards a Multifaceted Approach Archaeology of Techniques . The chaîne opératoire central and fundamental concept for archaeological studies that has been fully appropriated repurposed by several generations researchers. In this paper, we would like present some points discussed illustrated various articles in special issue. aim highlight theoretical practical considerations...
Abstract The article aims to show how a transdisciplinary approach can contribute better understanding of the composite biography precious object. study focuses on Cintola del Duomo (Museum Opera Duomo, Pisa), one most famous objects in history goldsmithing, both for its exceptional manufacturing quality and devotional value. For long time, was considered fragment garland – decorated with stones, enamel, silver plates that displayed façade Cathedral certain days liturgical calendar. Detailed...
The study of stone artifacts and their provenance is an important proxy for understanding the entangled relationship between humans geological resources. In this paper, we explore potentialities interdisciplinary approach combining in situ documentation tool marks characterization types using a near infrared (NIR) portable probe. We argue that protocol useful collecting screening data on objects cannot be moved or sampled. NIR spectra describe textural molecular features materials can used...
