The Changing Provenance of Red Ochre at Puritjarra Rock Shelter, Central Australia
In this paper we apply geochemical sourcing methods to an assemblage of ochre from archaeological excavations at the Puritjarra rock shelter in western central Australia. Our work indicates that the red ochre in Late Pleistocene contexts at this rock shelter is from Karrku, a subterranean ochre mine still worked today by Walbiri people. Archaeological finds at Puritjarra indicate that exploitation of this source of high-grade red ochre had begun …
Amino acid analysis of food residues in pottery
When food is cooked in a clay pot, traces remain within the fabric and in charred deposits on the walls of the vessel. To better define the parameters of food deposits in pottery, field research was carried out in Papua New Guinea (PNG) on cooking methods and pottery making as they relate to organic residues. Samples of common foods, pottery with known residues, and newly made pottery for laboratory studies were collected and analysed for amino a…
