Towards a diagnostic protocol for the study of modelling pastes in monumental terracruda sculpture
This paper presents an emerging diagnostic protocol for the study of modelling pastes in monumental terracruda sculpture, a distinctive technological tradition of monumental sculpture in air-dried clay. The study combines some newly acquired analytical data from Uzbek case studies with previously published results, integrating them with textual and ethnographic evidence to establish a diagnostic framework for material characterization and conserv…
The use of organic binders in monumental terracruda sculpture
Novelty : First study focused in unveil the organic binders used in producing the modelling pastes of monumental terracruda sculptures. • Innovative diagnostic approach : Multi-technical approach adapted to the study of low concentrations of organic material trapped in the studied samples confirming the presence of lipidic, proteic and gums-based organic binders. Highlight on the first application of omics techniques to analyse the molecular stru…
Shaping the sacred along the Silk Roads
This paper presents a depth revision of the technological, material, and symbolic knowledge of what we advocate to be identified as “monumental terracruda sculpture” along the Silk Roads. Through a highly interdisciplinary approach, combining a) the latest results of archaeometric analysis carried out on Buddhist examples, b) the documentation of traditional knowledge in making terracruda sculptures in Buddhist and Hindu religious practices, and …
The modeling pastes of the monumental terracruda sculpture of the Silk Roads
This paper presents the results of the mineralogical, petrographic and chemical study of different archaeological samples related to terracruda sculptures and other elements that were part of the architectural decoration of the Buddhist sites of Tepe Narenj and Qol‐e‐tut (Kabul, Afghanistan; fifth to 11th centuries CE). The main objective of the study was to characterize the samples using an archaeometric approach. The study helped to better unde…
