Looking for the sustainable conservation of Cultural Heritage
Absolute dating applied to the knowledge, analysis and conservation of Cultural Heritage
Vaulted fountains with a lower reservoir (beneath the vault) are hydraulic structures characteristic of the Iberian Peninsula, although examples have also been found in France and Italy. For morphological and toponymic reasons, due to their association with nearby archaeological sites, and above all due to the scarcity of systematic work and archaeological interventions, and the absence of dating, they have traditionally been attributed to the Ro…
S. Frutuoso de Montélios, analysis of the monument through new chronological inputs
The mausoleum of S. Frutuoso is directly dated for the first time. • Brick, earthen mortar and lime mortar are dated by OSL for getting an accurate chronology. • The area near the mausoleum of S. Frutuoso has confirmed occupation before the 7th century. • S. Frutuoso is a key element to understanding the landscape evolution of Braga. • The area occupied in Montélios in Late Antiquity was much wider and complex the previously known. The Mausoleum/…

Optically Stimulated Luminescence (Osl) Mortar Dating Inter-Comparison Study. The Second Round of Modis, Mortar Dating Inter-Comparison Study
After an intercomparison age experiment carried out in the framework of the first MODIS (MOrtar Dating Inter-comparison Study) project, the results showed general agreement both between optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating laboratories and with radiocarbon ( 14 C) dating results. As the needs for the selection of samples convenient for an inter-comparison are not the same between 14 C and OSL, for the second running, it has been decided…
Use of hand-held gamma-ray spectrometry to assess decay of granite ashlars in historical buildings of NW Spain (Barbanza, Galicia)
Gamma-ray spectrometry (GRS) provides the gamma radiation dose and K, u, and th content from ashlars. • GRS do not show significant differences of water content between façades and heights. • GRS shows differences in the weathering degree of ashlars that show decay features. • U/Th and U/K ratios are helpful to assess the weathering degree of ashlars. Non-destructive methods are widely demanded in research on Cultural Heritage. In the last years,…
Absolute dating of construction materials and petrological characterisation of mortars from the Santalla de Bóveda Monument (Lugo, Spain)
The construction materials of the Santalla de Bóveda Monument, one of the most studied buildings in Galicia (Spain), are analysed to date the mortars and bricks of walls and vaults by combining three dating techniques: optically stimulated luminescence, radiocarbon and thermoluminescence. Petrological characterisation of the mortars themselves is carried out. Until now, the paintings on the vault have been interpreted as Roman, early Christian or…
Dating mortars and bricks of Santalla de Bóveda Monument (Lugo, NW Spain)
Santalla de Bóveda Monument (Lugo, NW Spain) is a small semi-buried building, under the Bóveda parish church, built in the 18th century, with an apsidal quadrangular floor plan, which was divided into three naves, a small vaulted apse and a rectangular floor plan vaulted, where paintings depicting birds and plant elements have been well preserved. The monument has aroused great interest since its discovery, but its chronology and functionality ha…
Un singular ambiente doméstico del Hierro I en el interior de la península ibérica
Se presentan los resultados de las excavaciones (2006, 2017 y 2021) en un sector de la aldea del Hierro I del Cerro de San Vicente (Salamanca). Se ha exhumado un agregado informal de edificios y estructuras adjetivas de adobe cuyo patrón espacial es afín al esquema transcultural patrilocal. El artículo se centra en la casa 1 y sus cenizales. Tal vivienda fue excepcional por su larga e ininterrumpida biografía, su mobiliario de barro –con dos poyo…
Salt Weathering of Natural Stone
Natural stone is an important component of historical heritage (buildings and art objects such as sculptures or rock engravings), and it is still widely used in contemporary works. Soluble salts are the main erosive agent in the built environment, and we review here comparative studies that subject the same rock type to testing with different salt solutions. The results mostly support the accepted notion of the major impact of sodium sulphate, al…
El proceso de fabricación de los cuencos con borde biselado mesopotámicos. Nuevas aportaciones desde la arqueología experimental
n Los cuencos con borde biselado constituyen un signo de identidad de la cultura de Uruk en Mesopotamia y de su expansión territorial en otras regiones limítrofes de Oriente Próximo, durante la segunda mitad del IV milenio a.C. Sin embargo, en la actualidad conocemos mal tanto la función de este tipo de vasos de cerámica como el método con el que fueron elaborados por los artesanos de la época. A partir del análisis morfológico, geoquímico y de l…

Rigor científico en películas recientes de catástrofes. Validación de materiales para el profesorado de geología
Estudios previos demuestran que el uso de películas en el aula incrementa la retención de información, aunque su falta de rigor científico debe ser evaluada, evitando integrar errores en la base de conocimiento del alumnado. Películas de los últimos siete años muestran acertadas reconstrucciones de tsunamis pero incluyen errores sobre las áreas de bordes de placa y en la reconstrucción de procesos geológicos. Para este trabajo se prepararon ficha…
Hacia una reinterpretación de la secuencia de ocupación del Yacimiento de a Cidadela (A Coruña)
This paper presents the results of an extensive interdisciplinary work of revision, analysis, dating and excavation of the well known site of A Cidadela (A Corua). Research on this site has traditionally focused on the presence of a Roman fort (2nd-3rd centuries AD), leaving aside a series of later phases known as "Germanic". In order to deepen our knowledge of the whole sequence of the site, we published in 2015 an stratigraphical analysis of tw…
OSL Dating of Earthen Mortars from a Medieval Building in Northwestern Spain
There are few papers that focus on optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating of earthen mortars. These mortars are abundant in historical buildings in northwestern Spain. The Basílica da Ascensión y Forno da Santa building is an unfinished church built on a previous structure that was transformed into a crypt (Allariz, Ourense, NW Spain). Previous archaeological studies established a sequence of phases of construction, the first dating back …

An Interdisciplinary Study of Early Mediaeval Churches in North-Western Spain (Galicia)
Over the last five years, the EMCHAHE (Early Medieval Churches: History, Archaeology and Heritage) Project has analysed the architecture, archaeology and history of numerous rural churches of the High Middle Ages in Galicia (NW Spain), through its historical, stratigraphic and chronological study. As a result, the knowledge of this historical period has been broadened and even changed, as well as an interdisciplinary methodology on how to approac…
Dating the early Christian baptisteries from Idanha-a-Velha-the Suebi-Visigothic Egitania
The results of the excavations carried out by one of the authors in the early Christian baptisteries of Idanha-a-Velha, in Suebi- Visigothic Egitania, are presented. Chronostratigraphic data (stratigraphic sequence, typological analysis) are compared with radiocarbon and luminescence dates in order to establish a hypothesis concerning the construction date of both north and south baptisteries. The results have shown that the baptisteries are date…

The church of Santa Comba de Bande and early medieval Iberian architecture
Human–Landscape Interactions during the Early and High Medieval Period in Central Spain Based on New Estimates of Sediment Yield from the Melque Agricultural Complex
An agrosilvopastoral system and millennium of human occupation make Santa Maria de Melque an important archaeological site in Europe. Previous archaeological work mainly focused on ceramics and wooden structural elements of a church and anthracological, palynological, and paleocarpological analyses of sediments around a rural monastery. In this paper, we extend the geoarchaeological work to dams that were constructed nearby, applying innovative t…
A Late Bronze Age site and fluvial environmental context in the Middle Euphrates Valley (Northeast Syria)
Alluvial sediments provide records of environmental changes when early civilisations were born on Mesopotamian floodplains during approximately 6 kyr BP. In this work, we study and date the alluvial infill of a palaeochannel and sediments of a neighbouring wadi that flowed into the Middle Euphrates. Such a palaeochannel is alongside an archaeological site, abandoned in the late Bronze Age II. It was a strategic control point of the river transit …
Establecimiento y validación de procedimientos de datación por luminiscencia de material arqueológico en el laboratorio de geocronología de la Universidad de A Coruña
La datación mediante termoluminiscencia (TL) de material arqueológico es una técnica con unos 50 años de antigüedad, aunque no muy empleada en España. Avances metodológicos recientes han permitido aumentar la exactitud y precisión del método. La Unidad de Geocronología del Instituto Universitario de Xeoloxía “Isidro Parga Pondal” de la Universidad de A Coruña cuenta en la actualidad con un Laboratorio de Luminiscencia. Para poner a punto los proc…
Evolución constructiva de Santa Eulalia de Bóveda (Lugo, Galicia)
El conjunto monumental de Santa Eulalia de Bóveda (Lugo, Galicia) es una de las arquitecturas más emblemáticas, pero también problemáticas, del patrimonio lucense. Desde su descubrimiento en el año 1926 muchos han sido los investigadores que han analizado el edificio desde un punto de vista arquitectónico, arqueológico, artístico e incluso simbólico, aportando variadas interpretaciones sobre este conjunto. Sin embargo, todavía no existe un consen…

Paleofloods and ancient fishing weirs in NW Iberian rivers
A 15-m-thick, fluvial sedimentary record of the NW Iberian lower Miño River was studied. Grain-size analyses were performed and twelve samples were dated using optically stimulated luminescence dating techniques, documenting a 1300-yr-old reconstructed fluvial record that does not match with known climate fluctuations in the area, but is linked instead to the construction of a series of ancient fishing weirs ( pesqueiras ). The sedimentation phas…

La Basílica da Ascensión y Os Fornos (Allariz, Ourense) y la cristianización de la arquitectura en la Antigüedad Tardía
Se presenta el estudio arqueológico e histórico del conjunto arquitectónico de la Basílica da Ascensión y Os Fornos (Allariz), un monumento que, a través de sucesivas reformas, ha estado en uso desde la Edad del Hierro hasta la actualidad. Dada la hipótesis que barajamos, creemos que el cambio conceptualmente más importante es la conversión de una sauna vinculada al vecino castro de Armea en un lugar de culto cristiano que conmemora un episodio d…
