A multi-technique investigative approach unveils new compositional insights into the Pompeian red in the Domus di Arianna
Investigating Technology and Raw Materials Source of the Archaic and Classical Architectural Terracottas From the Athenaion in Castro (Apulia, Italy)
Since 2000, archaeological excavations have brought to light the sanctuary of Athena in Castro (Apulia, Italy), including terracotta roofs dated between the 6th and 4th centuries bce . Based on their morphological and stylistic features, it is suggested that the terracotta items were manufactured in the Greek colony of Taras (modern Taranto); conversely, several fragments cannot yet be confidently attributed to any specific production site. To sh…
Radiocarbon Dating of Straw Fragments in the Plasters of St. Philip Church in Archaeological Site Hierapolis of Phrygia (Denizli, Turkey)
Absolute dating of plasters and mortars clearly represents a key information to study important structures and buildings that may have undergone a difficult story starting from their construction. This is for instance the case of the architectures in the archaeological site of Hierapolis (Denizli, Turkey). However, when discussing about the possibility to apply radiocarbon ( 14 C) dating, in this site the presence of different sources of contamin…
The Effect of Exposure Condition on the Composition of the Corrosion Layers of the San Carlone of Arona
The Colossus of San Carlo Borromeo, named San Carlone for its large dimensions, represents a unique opportunity to study the long-term effects of atmospheric corrosion on patina formation on historic copper sheets. The sculpture’s large dimensions, complex geometry, direct visitor interaction, and exposure conditions generate different microclimates. The purpose of this study is to understand how and to what extent these microclimates affect the …
Ancient restoration practices in the Monumental Nymphaeum at Tripolis ad Maeandrum (Turkey): Multi-analytical approach on Roman and Byzantine bonding mortars
The study of ancient architectural restoration has recently gained attention in the field of archaeometry thanks to a new sensitivity for the long biographies of human artifacts. The paper focuses on ancient repairs documented in the column shafts of the Monumental Nymphaeum of Tripolis ad Maeandrum (Denizli, Turkey). Bonding mortars used to hold the ancient patches in place were sampled and analysed according to a multi-analytical protocol, coup…
Sustainable Restoration Guided by Scientific and Archival Investigations: The Bio-Cleaning of Lorenzo Duke of Urbino’s Sarcophagus, a Michelangelo’s Masterpiece in the Medici Chapels
The masterpiece this work deals with is the tomb of Lorenzo de’ Medici, Duke of Urbino, completed by Michelangelo around 1533 in the New Sacristy of Medici chapel in Florence. Sacristy underwent an extensive restoration (2013–2020) and Lorenzo’s sarcophagus was addressed in the last phase (2019–2020). The unique history and the mediocre state of conservation of the marble may be related to body decomposition processes that, according to the docum…

Di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate for the consolidation of lime-based historic mortars - Preliminary research
Pietra Alberese: Building Material and Stone for Lime in the Florentine Territory (Tuscany, Italy)
The PietraAlberese is a marly limestone belonging to the Ligurian series (Monte Morello Formation of Eocene age). It is a material rarely mentioned in the historical Florentine architecture because the Pietraforte, the stone of the Medieval Florence and the Pietra Serena, the stone of the Renaissance, were the main lithotypes commonly used in those periods. Nevertheless, the Pietra Alberese has been widely utilized to build the town, because it i…
The Ploutonion in the Archaeological Site of Hierapolis (Turkey): A Gate to the Underworld and the Knowledge
The archaeological site of Hierapolis (Denizli, Turkey), one of the great Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine cities of southwestern Turkey, protected by UNESCO since 1988, was built in the third century B.C. Even if damaged several times by earthquakes, it has survived for millennia. During antiquity, Hierapolis was a famous pilgrimage destination, the centre of a cult, because of the Ploutonion, the sanctuary dedicated to Hades– Pluto and his wife…
Archaeometric and archaeological study of painted plaster from the Church of St. Philip in Hierapolis of Phrygia (Turkey)
The dark colour of the Ploutonion at Hierapolis of Phrygiae (Turkey)
The dark colour of some excavated architectural elements of the Ploutonion , in the archaeological site of Hierapolis of Phrygiae (Turkey), was investigated. The Ploutonion , visited by numerous ancient writers, such as Cicero and Strabo, was a sanctuary dedicated to Pluto and Kore, constructed during the early Imperial period above the entrance to a natural cave, from which thermal waters and poisonous gases emerge. It was used for sacred ritual…
