Exploring Pottery Function and Cooking Practices in Bronze Age Sicily
Despite the extended application of GC-MS for detecting organic residues from archaeological ceramics, the potential of gas chromatography–high-resolution and accuracy mass spectrometry (GC-HRAMS) has not yet been fully explored. This study conducted lipid residue analysis (using an Exactive Orbitrap GC-MS system) of dolia and jars from two Early and Middle Bronze Age (2200-1450 BC) archaeological sites in south-eastern Sicily, comparing chromato…
Discovering the Catacombs of Sicily. First Analysis of the Skeletal Remains from the Late Antique Hypogeum of Scorrione
Scorrione-West, dated to 4 th -6 th centuries AD, represents a unique site, both archaeologically and methodologically.Archaeological material suggests intermingling of various cultural groups.The presented report aims to add more data regarding the human aspect at Scorrione.It provides initial findings and results of anthropological analysis of the human remains excavated at the site during the season 2020 -2021.Minimum number of excavated indiv…
Scorrione West (Modica, Ragusa, Sicily)
The excavation campaigns at Modica—Scorrione W (2020-2022) have brought together a consistent dataset which challenges the traditional picture of the appearance and economic background of rural rock-cut cemeteries during Late Antiquity. It is argued that rock-cut and lighter structures, as well as a number of decorative means, were employed in order to define the spatial hierarchy of the site. Besides its aesthetic implications, the use of stone,…
