Insights on the firing temperature of ancient ceramic coffins through a multi-analytical approach: The case of the Sada Nishizuka Kofun, Japan
Invention and Innovation: A Brief History of Hype and Failure
Vaclav Smil, whose research spans the fields of energy, environment, and technical innovation, is professor emeritus at the University of Manitoba, fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, and member of the Order of Canada. All of his books attract wide interest. Whatever the viewpoint, authoritativeness is extensively acknowledged to this author, whose writings—more than 40 books and about 500 papers—offer valuable information in terms of data, in…
Determining the use of ancient ceramic artefacts through combined morphological and magnetic analyses: The case of Villa del Foro, Northern Italy
The importance of multidisciplinary dating in rescue excavations: The case of Santhià, Northern Italy
Investigating the provenance of Italian archaeological obsidian tools based on their magnetic properties
Magnetic measurements as indicator of the equivalent firing temperature of ancient baked clays: New results, limits and cautions

Combined archaeomagnetic and thermoluminescence study of a brick kiln excavated at Fontanetto Po (Vercelli, Northern Italy)
Magnetite grain-size analysis and sourcing of Mediterranean obsidians
Cultivating Science, Harvesting Power: Science and Industrial Agriculture in California by Christopher R. Henke
Earth Science, Soil Chemistry, and Archaeology
Soil science and geology naturally combine in archaeology to study landscape, environment, the history of sites belonging to previous civilizations, to supply evidence for household and rural activities, or to retrieve fabrication and provenance of artifacts made of earth resources (e.g., chert and obsidian blades, gemstones, earthenware, and even glass and metallic objects). The long-term records of geophysics and geochemistry are practical also…

Roman Pottery From Augusta Praetoria (Aosta, Italy): A Provenance Study
Forty‐five sherds of Roman pottery, 21 terrae sigillutae and 24 common wares excavated in Augusta Praeroria, were analysed for 12 elements by atomic absorption and emission spectroscopy. Hierarchical agglomerative cluster analysis, principal component analysis, and non‐linear mapping were performed on the analytical data in order to classify the objects in groups which could account for different provenances; soft independent modelling of class a…
