The Geochemistry of Intrusive Sediment Sampled from the 1 st Century CE Inscribed Ossuaries of James and the Talpiot Tomb, Jerusalem
In 2002 an ossuary of unknown provenance was revealed to the public during a press conference; it is inscribed “James son of Joseph brother of Jesus”. Because its inscription seems to refer to a member of the Jesus of Nazareth’s family, it is natural to wonder what relationship this ossuary could have to the Talpiot tomb. Discovered in 1980 during construction operations in SE Jerusalem, the tomb contained several ossuaries inscribed with names f…
A 9000-Year-old Ash Bed on the Faroe Islands
Radiocarbon datings of the Saksunarvatn ash bed on the Faroe Islands indicate an age of 9000–9100 yr B.P. The Saksunarvatn ash bed differs geochemically from both ash zone 1 in the North Atlantic and the Vedde Ash Bed of Norway and the Norwegian Sea. All mentioned ashes are assumed to originate from Iceland. The Vedde Ash has been dated at 10,600 ± 60 yr B.P. Consequently, the Saksunarvatn and Vedde ash beds provide an opportunity for precise dat…
A Younger Dryas Ash Bed in Western Norway, and Its Possible Correlations with Tephra in Cores from the Norwegian Sea and the North Atlantic
A bed of volcanic ash up to 23 cm thick is found in lacustrine and marine sediments in western Norway. It is formally mamed the Vedde Ash Bed, and its age is approximately 10,600 yr B.P., i.e., mid-Younger Dryas. The bed consits of pure glass having a bimodal basaltic and rhyolitic composition. The geochemistry of the glass shards suggests an Icelandic source. By means of stratigraphic position and geochemistry, the ash is correlated with ash zon…
