Igbo-Ukwu Textiles
Thurstan Shaw’s excavations at Igbo-Ukwu revealed many artifacts and technologies that remain astonishing, unique, and incompletely understood, both within Africa and more broadly, even after 50 years. Among these are the textiles recovered primarily from Igbo Isaiah, where fragments were preserved by contact with the bronze artifacts gathered in what has been interpreted as a shrine. In the 1960s, an analysis of 20 textile samples was unable to …
New radiocarbon dates and environmental analyses of finds from 1903 excavations in the eastern plot of the Tashtyk cemetery of Oglakhty
Mummy Portraits of Roman Egypt
Ethnobotany of Hawaiian figure sculpture
Anecdotal theories about traditional uses of Polynesian woods in relation to social and religious practices were tested using comparative wood identification. The woods used to make 135 figure carvings from the Hawaiian archipelago were identified and compared with 23 figure carvings from elsewhere in Polynesia (especially Tahiti and the Marquesas). Prior to this study, the majority of Hawaiian images were believed to have been made from wood ofM…
The origins of decorated ostrich eggs in the ancient Mediterranean and Middle East
The scientific study of the materials used to create the Tahitian mourner's costume in the British Museum collection
Scientific characterisation of the dyes, pigments, fibres and wood used in the production of barkcloth from Pacific islands
An investigation of the dye palette in Chinese silk embroidery from Dunhuang (Tang dynasty)
Artists before Columbus
This study represents the first positive identification of plant gum binding media in pre-Columbian art, and the first dates from indigenous cave art in the Caribbean. Mona Island reveals an extensive and well-preserved pre-Columbian and early colonial subterranean cultural landscape with dense concentrations of newly-discovered cave art in up to 30 caves. A multi-method approach to the research of pigments and binding media, charcoal, and cave s…
An Aboriginal shield collected in 1770 at Kamay Botany Bay
A bark shield now in the British Museum can be identified from documentary and pictorial evidence as one collected by Captain Cook during his first voyage to Australia in 1770. Such shields often had special value to their Australian Aboriginal owners and hence might have been exchanged over considerable distances. This particular shield is known to have been collected in Kamay Botany Bay but analysis of the bark of which it is made revealed it t…
Identifying the woody resources of Diepkloof Rock Shelter (South Africa) using scanning electron microscopy of the MSA wood charcoal assemblages
First molecular identification of a hafting adhesive in the Late Howiesons Poort at Diepkloof Rock Shelter (Western Cape, South Africa)
The MSA sequence of Diepkloof and the history of southern African Late Pleistocene populations
Grapes or raisins? An early Bronze Age larder under the microscope
The sudden conflagration of an Early Bronze Age room at Tell es-Sa'idiyeh in the Jordan valley resulted in the preservation of a remarkable assemblage of plant remains. Using microscopy and experiment, the author was able to detect fruits previously sun dried for preservation. Grapes, figs, pomegranate, olives, cereals, legumes and capers provided the most conclusive evidence for the drying and preservation of food
Grape and Grain
From excavations of Bronze Age Levantine sites only rarely has there been archaeobotanical evidence of a specific dietary event which may be seen to reflect the daily life of the people against the background of their farming economy. Even more rare is one that may be examined scientifically for evidence of dried or preserved foodstuffs. An Early Bronze Age archaeobotanical assemblage at Tell es-Sa'idryeh in the Jordan valley has provided an oppo…
Seasonal Aspects of Bronze and Iron Age Communities at Ra's al-Hadd, Oman
Excavations of third millennium BC and later settlement, burial and workshop sites have been carried out at Ra's al-Hadd, Oman in 1988–9 and 1992 under the direction of Dr J. Reade. These excavations form part of the Joint Hadd Project, a multi-disciplinary programme of research co-directed by Dr S Cleuziou, Dr J Reade and Professor M Tosi; the Ra's al-Hadd portion of the Joint Hadd project is sponsored by the British Museum and the Ministry of N…
