The excavation of a turf-sided lock at Monkey Marsh, Thatcham, Berks
As part of the programme to re-open the full length of the Kennet and Avon Canal, the restoration of many of its locks was necessary. At Monkey Marsh lock, this restoration threatened the existence of a turf-sided lock and a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Wessex Archaeology undertook a programme of archaeological excavation and survey in 1989-90 to record the surviving phases of the structure. This paper presents a report on the archaeological work …
Applications of Petrography and Electron Microprobe Analysis to the Study of Indian Stone Sculpture
Examples of research on ancient Indian stone artefacts utilizing petrographic examination coupled with qualitative and quantitative electron beam microprobe analysis of specific minerals are described. Types of artefacts discussed include Gandharan schist sculptures. Pala dynasty phyllite and schist objects from eastern India, Hoysala sculptures from Karnataka state (southern India), and sandstone objects from northern India. In spite of the rich…
The Materials of Hoysala Temples and Sculptures: A Petrographic Characterization
Talcxhlorite schist is the material commonly used by the sculptors and builders of the Hoysala dynasty, which ruled i n the western part of India south of the Deccan from the eleventh to the mid‐fourteenth century. Forty‐one samples from seven Hoysala sites were examined by petrographic microscopy and electron beam microprobe analysis. Although it is difficult to distinguish between some of the rocks from the different sites. many contain mineral…
