Characterization and provenance studies of the stone tesserae from the “A Grandi Fiori” mosaic in the Roman villa of Casignana (Reggio Calabria, Italy)
This study focuses on the archaeometric analysis carried out on the stone tesserae constituting the “ A Grandi Fiori ” Mosaic in “Room N” of the residential area of the Roman Villa at Palazzi di Casignana (Reggio Calabria, Italy). The mosaic, dated to the 3rd century CE, features green and white tesserae arranged in four-petaled floral motifs. A multi-analytical approach was adopted to characterize both the green and white stone tesserae constitu…
Archaeometric Investigation of Artificial Stone Materials from the Theatrum Marcelli (Rome, Italy)
This study illustrates the results of minero-petrographic and microchemical investigations of artificial stone materials (mortars, plasters, and bricks) taken from the Theatrum Marcelli (Rome, Italy). To achieve this objective, the artificial building materials were analysed using Polarized Optical Microscopy (POM) and a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) used in backscattered electron (BSE) mode and coupled with an Energy-Dispersive Spectrometer…
Non-Invasive and Micro-Invasive Analyses for Supporting the Attribution of Three 17th Century Wooden Crucifixes
This research deals with a multi-analytical approach to characterise three polychrome wooden crucifixes attributed to Fra’ Umile da Petralia or, in one case, close to his style. The analysed wooden sculptures belong to (1) the Sanctuary of Saint Umile from Bisignano (Cosenza, Italy); (2) the Santissimo Crocifisso Church at Cutro (Crotone, Italy); (3) the Saint Salvatore Church at Gangi (Palermo, Italy). Fra’ Umile (Giovanni Francesco Pintorno) wa…
Construction technology and raw materials for the restoration of Gian Lorenzo Bernini's Cornaro Chapel Vault, Rome (Italy)
The scientific and multidisciplinary approach to the restoration of Bernini's Cornaro Chapel, at Santa Maria della Vittoria church in Rome, is reported as a fruitful example of the synergic cooperation between scientists and restorers for the planning and implementation of suitable conservative interventions. This study reports the cycle of scientific and diagnostic investigations carried out on the great Baroque masterpiece before the restoratio…
Archaeometric Study of Two Tanagra Type Statuettes of Unknown Provenance to Support Forensic Study
This paper is concerned with a morphological-stylistic and archaeometric study of two small pottery statues, confiscated by the Cosenza Carabinieri Unit for the Protection of Cultural Heritage and Anti-Counterfeiting (Calabria, Italy). The research aimed to establish the authenticity of the artworks and to verify a possible origin from the same workshop manufacturing, by providing indications about the textural features and raw materials used for…
Challenges for the Protection of Underwater Cultural Heritage (UCH), from Waterlogged and Weathered Stone Materials to Conservation Strategies
Despite the growing attention to Underwater Cultural Heritage (UCH) in Europe and worldwide, the efforts in wholly enjoying underwater archaeological assets and sites are still remarkable; hence, the need for innovative research and solutions that are suitable for raising knowledge on the subject. In this way, this paper wants to be a review for highlighting all of the developments, potentials, and results achieved in the last decade to reach a g…
Ceramics from Samshvilde (Georgia)
Evaluating the protecting effects of two consolidants applied on Pietra di Lecce limestone
A methodological approach to define the state of conservation of the stone materials used in the Cairo historical heritage (Egypt)
RBS, Pixe, Ion-Microbeam and SR-FTIR Analyses of Pottery Fragments from Azerbaijan
The present work is aimed at the investigation of the ceramic bulk and pigmented glazed surfaces of ancient potteries dating back to XIX century A.D. and coming from the charming archeological site located in the Medieval Agsu town (Azerbaijan), a geographic area of special interest due to the ancient commercial routes between China, Asia Minor, and Europe. For the purpose of the study, complementary investigation tools have been exploited: non-d…
