Continuity and Innovation in Pottery Technology
This paper explores the development of pottery technology in the Trieste Karst region (North-East Italy) from the Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age (EBA). It also seeks to identify cultural links with other areas by examining potentially imported vessels. Archaeometric analyses (X-ray diffraction and optical microscopy) reveal significant differences between Neolithic ceramics (Danilo–Vlaška Group) and the majority of Late Copper Age (LCA)/Early …
Provenance, technology and possible function of Gáta–Wieselburg vessels from the Trieste Karst (northeastern Italy)
A few scattered vessels, typologically attributed to the Gáta–Wieselburg culture, are known from the Friuli Venezia Giulia region in northeastern Italy. This culture spread during the Early Bronze Age (Reinecke Br A1b and A2, 2100–1700/1600 bc ) in present‐day eastern Austria, western Hungary and southwestern Slovakia. Rare ceramic artefacts, typically biconical double‐handled jugs with well‐burnished surfaces, have been discovered in caves of th…

Euganean trachytic grinding stones in the Caput Adriae from the Iron Age to the Roman period
A group of Euganean trachytic grinding stones from Slovenia and the available data about the same type of artefacts in the whole Caput Adriae are presented. The occurrence of Iron Age saddle querns in Karst and Istria is confirmed, but our study suggests a likely provenance from Mts Cero/Murale instead of Mts Altore/Rocca Pendice, as previously suggested. Este, an important Venetic centre, is just south of Mts Cero/Murale, suggesting its central …
Prehistoric Stone Disks from Entrances and Cemeteries of North-Eastern Adriatic Hillforts
The paper presents a group of four, approximately 0.5m large, stone disks from entrances or cemeteries of two protohistoric hillforts of north-eastern Adriatic. The disks, having a sparse chronology with the exception of one dated to the Middle Bronze Age, show flat and plain surfaces or covered with sub-circular depressions. One disk shows two larger cup-marks at the centre of both faces. They are interpreted as ritual artefacts based on the ass…
Late-Copper-Age decorated bowls from the Trieste Karst (north-eastern Italy)
A multi-analytical study of Bronze Age pottery from the Unesco site of Al-Khutm (Bat, Oman)
X-ray computed microtomography of Late Copper Age decorated bowls with cross-shaped foots from central Slovenia and the Trieste Karst (North-Eastern Italy)
Polished stone axes from Varna/Nössingbühel and Castelrotto/Grondlboden, South Tyrol (Italy)
Evidence of open-air late prehistoric occupation in the Trieste area (north-eastern Italy)
Whetstones from B ronze A ge Hill Forts of North‐Eastern I taly
A group of B ronze A ge whetstones from protohistoric hill forts, locally called castellieri, of eastern F riuli V enezia G iulia (north‐eastern I taly) has been studied using different techniques, including non‐destructive methods such as X ‐ray computed microtomography and portable X ‐ray fluorescence, in order to characterize the raw material and define its origin. The obtained results suggest that small pebbles of reddish subarkose and quartz…
Mineralogical and Chemical Constraints on the Provenance of C opper A ge Polished Stone Axes of ‘Ljubljana Type’ from C aput A driae
In this paper we show the results of a study concerning 42 axes, mainly discovered in the C opper A ge pile dwellings of L jubljansko barje (central S lovenia) and in the neighbouring areas of C aput A driae. The studied shaft‐hole axes, characterized by homogeneous typology but slightly different raw materials, have been called ‘ L jubljana‐type’ axes ( L t). The raw materials show a common OIB ‐like signature and metamorphic and spilitization f…
Airborne LiDAR application to karstic areas
Petrographic and geochemical comparison between the Copper Age “Ljubljana type” axes and similar lithotypes from Eisenkappler Diabaszug complex (southern Austria)
Shaft‐hole Axes From Caput Adriae Made From Amphibole‐rich Metabasites
Here we show the results of a study concerning a small group of shaft‐hole axes found in northeastern Italy, made from amphibole‐rich metabasites, fine‐grained and free of phenoblasts. The main mineral phases are amphibole, ranging from actinolite to hornblende, and plagioclase (An 10–15 and An 70–77 ). The amphiboles generally show a needle shape and are often radially arranged. Quartz is present in thin veinlets, while ilmenite is widespread in…
Synchrotron Ftir Micro-Spectroscopy Applied to the Study of Polished Serpentinite Artefacts
In prehistory, serpentinite was one of the most frequently used raw materials to produce polished stone artefacts. Several conventional analytical techniques can be applied to identify the serpentine minerals, but their application generally requires a powdered sample. This implies that the artefacts to be analysed must be damaged, and the possibility of analysing a mixture of different serpentine polytypes is high. The use of spatially resolved …
Shaft‐hole Axes From Caput Adriae
The change of raw materials used to produce stone axes during the Neolithic to Copper Age transition in northeastern Italy, central and western Slovenia and northwestern Croatia (Caput Adriae) has been recently linked to the development of early European metallurgy. Serpentinite shaft‐hole axes occur commonly in the archaeological context of this region and their rounded irregular shape suggests that the raw material was mainly sourced from secon…
Shaft‐hole Axes From Slovenia and North‐western Croatia
A group of Copper Age shaft‐hole axes from Caput Adriae (northeastern Italy, western Slovenia and northwestern Croatia) manufactured using meta‐dolerite have been analysed for major and trace elements. All the samples show magmatic textures and well recognizable relicts of primary mineralogical phases. Petrographic observations suggest an ophiolitic provenance of the protolithic source(s) while geochemical data indicate that the original magmas o…
