The beginning of copper metalworking in the Copper Age of the Carpathian Basin – New data on the provenance of Early and Middle Copper Age copper finds from Western and Central Hungary
Geochemical and Pb isotopic constraints on the provenance of the Lupa Capitolina bronze statue
Newly reanalyzed samples from the bronze statue of the Lupa Capitolina have provided lead isotope and trace element data. The lead isotope results coincide with those previously reported in the literature, but are approximately 20 times more precise. The high-resolution lead isotope analyses and the compositional data, especially lead concentrations higher than those found in copper ores, clearly reveal a mixing trend during the casting process. …
The myth of Mecsek malachite used in the Late Neolithic Carpathian Basin- the provenance of Late Neolithic malachite and copper artefacts from South-eastern Transdanubia
The early medieval origins of copper ore extraction in the Carpathian Mountains
The case study addresses the question of the early medieval revival of copper production in Europe. The focus of the research area is the Carpathian Basin, located on the eastern periphery of the zone influenced by European early medieval processes. The research of where and when early medieval metal production started in the region in our case also provides answers to the question of how the region was linked to the European continental economic…
Economic rebound versus imperial monopoly
Lead provenance for medieval decorated tile glazes from Brittany and Anjou (13th-14th c.)
Archaeometric Provenance Constraints for Early Medieval Sparse Glazed Pottery from Donoratico (Livorno, Italy)
The study of a huge repertory of sparse glazed ware from Donoratico (Livorno, Italy) dated back to the ninth century was carried out to investigate the production technology via petrographic, chemical, and isotopic investigations. The mineralogical and chemical evidence suggested the application of a lead oxide flux to an unfired non‐calcareous ceramic body, in accordance with late Antique and early‐Medieval traditions. The isotopic investigation…
Diversity of resources and volatility of metallurgical networks-multi-methodological provenance analysis of neolithic and EBA-copper-artefacts from Switzerland and eastern France
Sant'Imbenia (Alghero)
Lead isotope compositions were determined for 18 metal objects from the archaeological site of Sant'Imbenia, NW Sardinia, dating to the end of the ninth century BCE onwards. The provenance of some objects is unambiguously traced to SW Sardinia; other objects could derive either from central Sardinia or the Iberian coastal ranges. The variety of the provenances attests to a wide trade network that spanned the entire island of Sardinia and extended…
Facies analysis, stratigraphy and marine vertebrate assemblage of the lower Miocene Chilcatay Formation at Ullujaya (Pisco basin, Peru)
This paper is the first integrated account of the sedimentology, stratigraphy, and vertebrate paleontology for the marine strata of the Chilcatay Formation exposed at Ullujaya, Pisco basin (southern Peru). An allostratigraphic framework for the investigated strata was established using geological mapping (1:4000 scale) and conventional sedimentary facies analysis and resulted in recognition of two unconformity-bounded allomembers (designated Ct1 …
Copper metallurgy in ancient Etruria (southern Tuscany, Italy) at the Bronze-Iron Age transition
Stratigraphic framework of the late Miocene Pisco Formation at Cerro Los Quesos (Ica Desert, Peru)
The enormous concentration of marine vertebrates documented within the Pisco Formation is unique for Peru and South America and places this unit among the prime fossil Lagerstätten for Miocene to Pliocene marine mammals worldwide. In order to provide a robust stratigraphic framework for the fossil-bearing locality of Cerro Los Quesos, this study presents a 1:10,000 scale geological map covering an area of about 21 km2, a detailed measured section…
A lead-isotope database of copper ores from the Southeastern Alps
Nouveau regard sur le Bronze ancien en Bourgogne à la lumière de l’étude d’une hache récemment découverte en forêt d’Étaules (Côte-d’Or)
La découverte fortuite d’une lame de hache en bronze en forêt d’Étaules, dans des conditions douteuses en 2010, a conduit à son étude aussi détaillée que possible et à sa remise en contexte culturel en offrant ainsi un regard actualisé sur le Bronze ancien en Bourgogne. Cette hache à petits rebords est proche du type de Neyruz et datable du milieu du Bronze ancien. Très bien conservée, elle a été soigneusement préparée après sa sortie d’un moule …
Middle and late Pleistocene glaciations in the Campo Felice Basin (central Apennines, Italy)
The present paper refers to research conducted in the tectonic-karst depression of Campo Felice in the central Apennines (Italy), in which glacial, alluvial and lacustrine sediments have been preserved. Stratigraphic interpretations of sediments underlying the Campo Felice Plain are based on evidence obtained from nine continuous-core boreholes. The boreholes reach a depth of 120 m and provide evidence of five sedimentation cycles separated by er…
Provenance of Early Bronze Age metal artefacts in Western Switzerland using elemental and lead isotopic compositions and their possible relation with copper minerals of the nearby Valais
The origins of lead archaeological artifacts using mass spectrometry analysis
This paper presents a study carried out on the origins of two groups of lead sling projectiles accidentally recovered in the Dobrudja territory, attributed to the Macedonian and Roman armies, respectively. The analytical methods used were Inductively Coupled Plasma – Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) for trace element analyses and Multi Collector Inductively Coupled Plasma – Mass Spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS) for isotope ratio determination. Comparing the re…
Lead isotopic measurements in archeological objects
Copper supply during the Final Neolithic at the Saint-Blaise/Bains des Dames site (Neuchâtel, Switzerland)
Holocene ITCZ and Indian monsoon dynamics recorded in stalagmites from Oman and Yemen (Socotra)
Lead Isotopic Evidence for a Mixed Provenance for Roman Water Pipes From Pompeii
Lead isotope analysis has been applied to the investigation of some Roman objects found in the town of Pompeii, consisting mostly of fistulae from the Augustan water supply system. The results of the analyses have produced ratios between 18.10 and 18.66 for 206 Pb/ 204 Pb, between 15.63 and 15.72 for 207 Pb/ 204 Pb and between 38.21 and 38.98 for 208 Pb/ 204 Pb. These data point to a fairly complex origin for the lead artefacts, probably involvin…
