  • Combining elemental analysis and molecular techniques to characterize Ancient Egyptian mummification balms

    Open Access•Marta Colmenares-Prado, Antonio Martínez Cortizas et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Archaeological Science•2026

    FTIR spectroscopy has been successfully used to characterize embalming materials from Egyptian mummies in a wide number of studies in the recent decades. Here, we have performed ATR-FTIR to 27 balm samples from seven Egyptian mummified heads curated at.

  • Using ATR-FTIR, analytical colour and mercury for unravelling the cremation ritual of Tyresta viking age burial mound (South-Central Sweden)

    Open Access•Marta Colmenares-Prado, Antonio Martínez Cortizas et al.•ARTICLE•Archaeological and Anthropological…•2026•References: 85

    The funerary rituals in Viking Age Scandinavia are known by their complexity and diversity including inhumation, boat burials, and cremation. Cremations have been extensively studied macroscopically, but the application of geochemical techniques, although highly informative to investigate cremation in more detail, have not been widely explored yet. In the Viking Age the inclusion of both animals and humans on the funeral pyres makes research chal…

  • The late medieval/early modern necropolis of Adro Vello (O Grove, Pontevedra, Spain) from sondage 1.2017

    Elvira Mangas-Carrasco, Marta Colmenares-Prado et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Medieval Iberian Studies•2022

    The study of non-adult individuals and the concept of childhood are essential for deepening our knowledge of past communities. Adro Vello (O Grove, Pontevedra) is considered one of the most representative and iconic necropolises of medieval Galicia. However, research on the human skeletal remains has so far been scarce and has not previously focused on what osteoarchaeological analyses can reveal about lifestyle. Here we study the human skeletal …
