New Wooden Archaeological Finds from Herculaneum: The State of Preservation and Hypothesis of Consolidation of the Material from the House of the Relief of Telephus
Open AccessNicola Macchioni, Benedetto Pizzo et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2016References: 17
This paper deals with the description of the analysis performed to characterize the state of preservation of the wooden artefacts recently discovered at the site of Herculaneum, Italy. During 2009, several wooden artefacts were brought to light during maintenance work at Herculaneum. They were attributed to both the roofing elements and the ceiling of the House of the Relief of Telephus. The roof was found mainly disassembled; nevertheless, it wa…

Preserving Archaeological Remains In Situ: Three Case Studies in Trentino, Italy
Cristina Dal Rì, Susanna Fruet et al.ARTICLEConservation and Management of…2012
The paper presents the results of the restoration and conservation work which has been carried out in three archaeological areas in the Autonomous Province of Trento. The areas, which have been opened to the public for more than ten years, are the open-air archaeological site of Monte S. Martino, Roman Tridentum (an underground site under the historical city centre of Trento), and Fiavé (a pile dwelling site in a peat bog). These areas present ve…

Evaluation of the Applicability of Conventional Methods for the Chemical Characterization of Waterlogged Archaeological Wood
Open AccessBenedetto Pizzo, G Giachi et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2010Cited by: 4References: 13
A series of 112 waterlogged archaeological wood samples of different provenances, wood species, burial times and states of preservation were analysed with the aim of assessing the validity (in terms of limits and reliability) of procedures conventionally used in the pulp and paper industry, to evaluate the state of preservation of decayed wood. In particular, the extent of any damage wrought on decayed wood tissue by the repetitive cycles that ch…

The Characterization of Waterlogged Archaeological Wood: The Three Roman Ships Found in Naples (Italy)
Open AccessC CAPRETTI, Nicola Macchioni et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2008Cited by: 15References: 16
Three apparently well‐preserved shipwrecks dating back to Roman times were brought to light near Piazza Municipio in Naples (Italy), during the excavation for the construction of Line 1 of the subway. The shipwrecks were covered by marine sand and silt, below the water table. In order to establish the nature and the extent of wood degradation and, therefore, determine how best to preserve the shipwrecks, a diagnostic investigation was carried out…
