A new algorithm for using Pb isotopes to determine the provenance of bullion in ancient Greek coinage
A new algorithm is proposed that uses Pb isotopes to help identify the ore deposits utilized as sources of silver in Antiquity. The algorithm takes natural and analytical isotope fractionation into account. It proposes a statistical measure of the distances between the Pb isotope compositions of ores and artifacts. This measure is amenable to statistical tests at any confidence level. The new algorithm is applied to the Pb isotope compositions of…
Ag and Pb isotope systematics in galena ores from southern Sardinia and southern France flag potential silver sources in antiquity
While lead isotopes serve to determine potential ore provenance, silver isotopes help evaluate if a specific ore flagged by Pb isotopes has actually been exploited as a silver source of bullion in antiquity. The combination of Ag and Pb isotopes thus constitutes a powerful tool to address provenance and identify potential ore sources. It has recently been observed that the vast majority of silver isotopic abundances in hundreds of silver coins fr…
Inférences sur les réseaux régionaux à partir d'arbres génétiques locaux, l'exemple du site néolithique de Gurgy 'les Noisats
La reconstitution de la parenté génétique dans des contextes archéologiques a longtemps été impossible, mais grâce à l’optimisation récente des méthodes d’analyse de l’ADN ancien, on peut désormais reconstituer de manière fiable des généalogies génétiques, parfois importantes. L’analyse génomique approfondie du site français du Néolithique moyen de Gurgy 'les Noisats', dans le Bassin parisien, nous a permis de reconstruire deux arbres conséquents…
Bullion mixtures in silver coinage from ancient Greece and Egypt
Was silver coinage minted from fresh metal newly extracted from the mine or was it from recycled silver deriving from older coins, silverware, or cult objects? The answer helps understand the provenance of coins and their circulation. Using Pb isotopes, the present work proposes a method to disentangle the sources of 368 silver-alloy coins from Athens, Corinth, Aegina, Thasos, Thrace, Macedonia, and Ptolemaic Egypt. We outline a new mixing model …
Origin and fate of the greatest accumulation of silver in ancient history
The capture of the Achaemenid treasuries in 331-330 BCE by Alexander the Great in Persepolis and Susa marked the demise of the 300-year-old Persian Empire and the advent of Hellenistic kingdoms. Alexander seized the equivalent of about 5000 tons of silver, which represented the accumulated tributes paid by subjugated people from the Aegean Sea to the Indus to their Achaemenid rulers. Die studies show that this gigantic amount of silver, the so-ca…

Questioning Fe isotopes as a provenance tool
Fe and Cu stable isotopes in archeological human bones and their relationship to sex
Accurate sex assignment of ancient human remains usually relies on the availability of coxal bones or well‐preserved DNA. Iron (Fe) and copper (Cu) stable isotope compositions ( 56 Fe/ 54 Fe and 65 Cu/ 63 Cu, respectively) were recently measured in modern human blood, and an unexpected result was the discovery of a 56 Fe‐depletion and a 65 Cu‐enrichment in men's blood compared to women's blood. Bones, being pervasively irrigated by blood, are exp…
Isotopic Ag–Cu–Pb record of silver circulation through 16th–18th century Spain
Estimating global fluxes of precious metals is key to understanding early monetary systems. This work adds silver (Ag) to the metals (Pb and Cu) used so far to trace the provenance of coinage through variations in isotopic abundances. Silver, copper, and lead isotopes were measured in 91 coins from the East Mediterranean Antiquity and Roman world, medieval western Europe, 16th–18th century Spain, Mexico, and the Andes and show a great potential f…
