Detecting pigments of cave paintings hidden beneath calcite layers
Iron-based pigments in prehistoric rock paintings may be masked by calcite layers. • Magnetic susceptibility and reflectance spectroscopy (400–2500 nm) are non-invasive. • We propose MS and RS techniques associated with advanced statistical analysis. • Laboratory experiments detect iron-bearing pigments beneath up to 7 mm of calcite. • Prehistoric rock art is detected under 3 mm of calcite on a cave wall by MS and RS. Detecting cave paintings, pr…
Intra-skeletal variability in trace elemental content of Precolumbian Chupicuaro human bones
Chupicuaro archaeological sites
Aims of the project The area of Chupicuaro, located in the middle valley of the Lerma river, is regarded as one of the major archaeological targets of central Mexico for the late pre-classic period (600 BC-AD 300). Archaeological investigations in the area have been limited because of a large reservoir constructed in 1948 and severe plundering. Since 1999 a French-Mexican research program has concentrated on broadening knowledge of the local Chup…
Géoarchéologie du site antique de Molesme en vallée de Laigne (Côte-d’Or)
The conclusions from the research project in the Laigne valley show the relevance of the geoarchaeological approach conducted on two scales of investigation. The first, over the entire alluvial plain, allows general data to be collected which characterise the specific functions of each catchment basin during the Holocene period : determination of sedimentary sequences, evolution of vegetation and phases of human occupation. The second is a geoarc…
