Integrating the Angkorian Empire
In search of Tabal, central Anatolia
Trajectories of social complexity following socio-political collapse have provided fertile ground for new theoretical and methodological perspectives in archaeology. Here we investigate ceramics from the site of Alişar Höyük, a settlement that was likely part of the Iron Age polity of Tabal. Best known from Assyrian texts, Tabal emerged in central Anatolia after the Late Bronze Age Hittite collapse, but its structure and operation remain enigmati…

Non-destructive Provenancing of Ground-Edged Mafic Artifacts
Ground-edged artifacts were an important part of the Australian Aboriginal toolkit. They had practical day-to-day uses, but some had symbolic and social values that led to their movement across great distances. Australian provenance studies document long-distance Aboriginal exchange systems extending over hundreds of kilometers. The size and complexity of exchange systems and social networks were contingent upon resources and the productivity of …
Differentiating Khmer Stoneware Production
We report analytical results for stoneware samples from four excavated Angkor-period kilns in the Greater Angkor area. Previous work has suggested that establishing distinct chemical signatures for kiln complexes in this region is problematic. The current study highlights the effectiveness of neutron activation analysis (NAA) for differentiating the products of Angkorian kiln complexes; it also confirms the viability of a larger-scale research pr…
The Archaeology of Achaemenid Power in Regional Western Anatolia
The Achaemenids conquered Anatolia in the sixth century bce. However, in contrast to the historical descriptions of political response to Achaemenid control, e.g. the so-called ‘Ionian revolt’ of east Greek territories in Western Anatolia, the operation of Achaemenid-period economies in this region remains obscure. Only a handful of occupation sites in western Turkey provide archaeological data contemporary with Achaemenid rule. In this paper, we…

The Early Iron Age at Troy Reconsidered
N eutron A ctivation A nalysis ( NAA ) of P rotogeometric ceramics at T roy supports a revision of our understanding of the site in the P rotogeometric period. Previous interpretations of this period at T roy emphasized the importance of either G reek migration or G reek trade networks. A category of amphoras previously thought to be imports appears to have been made locally. NAA also indicates local production of a new class of handmade cooking …
Ceramics, trade, provenience and geology
The island of Cyprus was a major producer of copper and stood at the heart of east Mediterranean trade networks during the Late Bronze Age. It may also have been the source of the Red Lustrous Wheelmade Ware that has been found in mortuary contexts in Egypt and the Levant, and in Hittite temple assemblages in Anatolia. Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) has enabled the source area of this special ceramic to be located in a geologically highly loca…

Crossing the Great Divide
The raw material, method of manufacture and modification of a ground‐edged hatchet‐head found at Vaucluse in Sydney provides evidence for the movement of stone tools from west of the Great Dividing Range to the coast. Such evidence adds new knowledge about social relationships between different groups in southeastern Australia and patterns of exchange that existed in the past
Non‐destructive analysis using PXRF
Uncritical application of portable X‐ray fluorescence (PXRF) to non‐destructive analysis of archaeological ceramics has been received with scepticism. In this article, we present a methodological evaluation of the parameters and constraints for PXRF analysis of archaeological ceramics. We use experimental matrices that simulate characteristics of archaeological artefacts to demonstrate the impact of (1) surface morphology, (2) organic surface coa…

Non-destructive pXRF of mafic stone tools
Non-destructive PXRF analysis of museum-curated obsidian from the Near East
Patterns of Iron Age interaction in central Anatolia
The cultural and political changes that happened in Anatolia after the collapse of the Hittite Empire have only recently been recognised as a significant, but as yet unexplained, phenomenon. Here we present the results of analyses of ceramics from three sites south and southwest of the present-day town of Sorgun – Çadır Höyük, Kerkenes Dağ and Tilkigediği Tepe – to identity how regional groups within the Hittite core area regrouped in the afterma…

Doubts on diffusion
Iron Age agate and carnelian beads found in Southeast Asia have long been assumed to be Indian imports, often featuring in diffusion-orientated theories of Southeast Asian state development that cite Indian influence as a major causal factor. The origin of these beads is tested here, through a pioneering non-destructive geochemical sourcing study of carnelian beads and potential source material. Our results suggest that many of these beads do not…

Using neutron activation analysis to identify scales of interaction at Kinet Höyük, Turkey
New evidence for specialised ceramic production and exchange in the southeast Arabian Iron Age
Results from a programme of PIXE‐PIGME analysis of Iron Age ceramics from southeastern Arabia are presented. Compositional analysis indicates the existence of two discrete Iron Age II ceramic assemblages. A combination of geological and archaeological evidence suggests that one of these was produced in the inland oasis of al‐Ain. Geological evidence in combination with previously published data on the elemental composition of southeast Iranian ce…

Geochemical provenience of 16th–19th century C.E. Asian ceramics from Torres Strait, northeast Australia
Beyond themandala
In this paper I argue that within the range of Buddhist monuments in the uplands of north‐west Thailand, a series of abandoned chedis are valuable indicators of socio‐political interactions with lowland centres between circa AD 1200 and AD 1650. The character of upland burials reflects the level of participation with lowland groups at this time. Proximity to lowland tradeware production centres and the extent of socio‐political integration with a…

Post‐collapse
How communities reorganize after collapse is drawing increasing attention across a wide spectrum of disciplines. Iron Age Boğazköy provides an archaeological case study of urban and political regeneration after the widespread collapse of eastern Mediterranean Late Bronze Age empires in the early twelfth century BC. Recent work at Boğazköy has significantly expanded our understanding of long‐term occupation in north central Anatolia. This work cou…
Dating the City Wall, Fortifications, and the Palace Site at Pagan
The strengths and limitations of radiocarbon dating as applied to samples taken in and around the walled city center of Pagan, in Burma, are addressed. The last thousand years in mainland Southeast Asia remains a difficult period to date absolutely because of two critical issues. The first is the use of wood from long-lived species, such as teak, in archaeological contexts. The archaeologist dating such material must be aware of the significance …

Land Use, Political Complexity, and Urbanism in Mainland Southeast Asia
Debates about the development of political complexity and cities are typically focused on material cultural correlates and situated within the wider context of the emergence of states. Conventionally, state emergence is linked to agricultural surpluses and a new phase of agricultural intensification. However, this approach remains fundamentally reliant on the preservation of an appropriate and diverse suite of material cultural correlates. For ma…

Elemental characterisation of Barbar ceramics from Tell Abraq
The early second millennium levels at Tell Abraq have yielded over 600 fragments of friable, red‐ridged pottery with exploding lime grits which is superficially indistinguishable from contemporary, so‐called ‘Barbar’pottery on Bahrain (1). The Bahraini origin of the Tell Abraq Barbar sherds has been demonstrated by means of proton‐induced x‐ray and gamma‐ray emission (PIXE/PIGME) analysis. In addition, the results of x‐ray fluorescence (XRF) of B…
A Trial Pixe/Pigme analysis of Pre‐Islamic Arabian Coinage
Eight previously published (1) pre‐Islamic coins minted in Arabia were subjected to non‐destructive ion beam analysis by Proton Induced X‐Ray (PIXE) and Gamma‐Ray Emission (PIGME) at Lucas Heights. The results (2) were interpreted using Principal Components Analysis (PCA). The relative X‐ray intensities of fifteen elements, supplemented with additional L alpha lines for two of the elements, were extracted for this analysis. PCA (results appended)…
The ring-ditch burials of Northwestern Thailand and the archaeology of resistance
Recent archaeological study of sites in the uplands of northwestern Thailand has indicated the presence of socially complex cultures which were interacting with lowland centres from as early as the 5th century AD. Sites of monumental ring-ditch burials have been found to have been heavily looted. Further research on their significance will require require techniques appropriate to disturbed sites

The Stoneware Kilns of Sisatchanalai and Early Modern Thailand
Little is known about the transition to the Modern Economy in non-European settings. Southeast Asia provides a rare opportunity to evaluate this transition through analysis of the tradeware production system that operated at the site of Sisatchanalai in central northern Thailand. Sisatchanalai is the largest and longest lived (A.C. 1100–1650) stoneware production complex in continental Southeast Asia. Based on the timing and nature of changes in …
