  • Whetstones from B ronze A ge Hill Forts of North‐Eastern I taly

    Open AccessF Bernardini, Angelo De Min et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2015Cited by: 3References: 10

    A group of B ronze A ge whetstones from protohistoric hill forts, locally called castellieri, of eastern F riuli V enezia G iulia (north‐eastern I taly) has been studied using different techniques, including non‐destructive methods such as X ‐ray computed microtomography and portable X ‐ray fluorescence, in order to characterize the raw material and define its origin. The obtained results suggest that small pebbles of reddish subarkose and quartz…

  • Mineralogical and Chemical Constraints on the Provenance of C opper A ge Polished Stone Axes of ‘Ljubljana Type’ from C aput A driae

    Open AccessF Bernardini, Angelo De Min et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2014Cited by: 6References: 29

    In this paper we show the results of a study concerning 42 axes, mainly discovered in the C opper A ge pile dwellings of L jubljansko barje (central S lovenia) and in the neighbouring areas of C aput A driae. The studied shaft‐hole axes, characterized by homogeneous typology but slightly different raw materials, have been called ‘ L jubljana‐type’ axes ( L t). The raw materials show a common OIB ‐like signature and metamorphic and spilitization f…

  • Shaft‐hole Axes From Caput Adriae Made From Amphibole‐rich Metabasites

    Open AccessF Bernardini, Angelo De Min et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2012Cited by: 3References: 12

    Here we show the results of a study concerning a small group of shaft‐hole axes found in northeastern Italy, made from amphibole‐rich metabasites, fine‐grained and free of phenoblasts. The main mineral phases are amphibole, ranging from actinolite to hornblende, and plagioclase (An 10–15 and An 70–77 ). The amphiboles generally show a needle shape and are often radially arranged. Quartz is present in thin veinlets, while ilmenite is widespread in…

  • Synchrotron Ftir Micro-Spectroscopy Applied to the Study of Polished Serpentinite Artefacts

    Open AccessF Bernardini, Diane Eichert et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2011Cited by: 3References: 15

    In prehistory, serpentinite was one of the most frequently used raw materials to produce polished stone artefacts. Several conventional analytical techniques can be applied to identify the serpentine minerals, but their application generally requires a powdered sample. This implies that the artefacts to be analysed must be damaged, and the possibility of analysing a mixture of different serpentine polytypes is high. The use of spatially resolved …

  • Shaft‐hole Axes From Caput Adriae

    Open AccessF Bernardini, Angelo De Min et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2011Cited by: 4References: 16

    The change of raw materials used to produce stone axes during the Neolithic to Copper Age transition in northeastern Italy, central and western Slovenia and northwestern Croatia (Caput Adriae) has been recently linked to the development of early European metallurgy. Serpentinite shaft‐hole axes occur commonly in the archaeological context of this region and their rounded irregular shape suggests that the raw material was mainly sourced from secon…

  • Shaft‐hole Axes From Slovenia and North‐western Croatia

    Open AccessF Bernardini, Angelo De Min et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2009Cited by: 4References: 21

    A group of Copper Age shaft‐hole axes from Caput Adriae (northeastern Italy, western Slovenia and northwestern Croatia) manufactured using meta‐dolerite have been analysed for major and trace elements. All the samples show magmatic textures and well recognizable relicts of primary mineralogical phases. Petrographic observations suggest an ophiolitic provenance of the protolithic source(s) while geochemical data indicate that the original magmas o…

  • Archaeometric Study of Protohistoric Grinding Tools of Volcanic Rocks Found in the Karst (Italy–slovenia) and Istria (Croatia)

    Open AccessFabrizio Antonelli, F Bernardini et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2004Cited by: 7References: 22

    This paper presents the results of the archaeometric study of 30 grinding tools found in the Karst plateau (an area that spreads from the northeastern border of Italy to Slovenia) and in the Istria peninsula (Croatia). The petrographic and geochemical characteristics of the artefacts indicate that most of them would be made of trachytic volcanites extracted from the Euganean Hills, near Padua (Veneto). It is known that trachytic rocks from this a…
