Chemical composition of ancient ceramics

CRMC

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
Three parts of a database provide published and unpublished chemical analysis results of archaeological ceramics. These are the results of forty years of applying WD-XRF and other mineralogical and physical laboratory methods to the analysis of sherds from excavations and museums. Drawing on some 30,000 analyses from research projects in Europe, Turkey, the near East, and Sudan, the part published here covers the results of three long-term projects: Early pottery in Thessaly, Greece (1,305 records), Firmalampen and other Roman lamps (1,666 records), and Roman and other pottery produced in Central Europe (4,043 records). This collated information provides an opportunity to work directly on published and unpublished data. These can be used as chemical reference groups for comparison for fine ware classification and in provenance studies.

Portable X-Ray fluorescence analysis of Late Bronze Age glass from Amarna

KBLT

Subject(s)
Country
Cobalt was commonly used as a colourant in the Egyptian glass industries of the 18th dynasty, dark blue glass being a regular find at palatial and settlement sites, including Amarna and Malqata. The main source of cobalt ore used during this period has been identified in the Egyptian Western Desert, around the oases of Kharga and Dakhla. The data presented here was obtained in order to better understand the chaîne opératoire of Late Bronze Age glass production and -working, in particular with regard to cobalt ore. For this purpose, chemical analysis by portable X-Ray fluorescence (pXRF) was carried out in the field on contextualised archaeological material excavated at the site of Amarna, which cannot be exported from Egypt for analysis. In addition, glass and other vitreous materials from the same site, but without a more precise archaeological context, were analysed in the Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection, Berlin. The results of this study demonstrate how cobalt ore from various sub-sources was used in the known workshop sites at Amarna, resulting in a deeper understanding of raw materials use and exchange across this settlemen

Archaeological Map of the Czech Republic

Archeologická mapa České republiky

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
The Archaeological Map of the Czech Republic (AMCR) is a repository designed for information on archaeological investigations, sites and finds, operated by the Archaeological Institutes of the CAS in Prague and Brno. The archives of these institutions contain documentation of archaeological fieldwork on the territory of the Czech Republic from 1919 to the present day, and they continue to enrich their collections. The AMCR database and related documents form the largest collection of archaeological data concerning the Czech Republic and are therefore an important part of our cultural heritage. The AMCR digital archive contains various types of records - individual archaeological documents (texts, field photographs, aerial photographs, maps and plans, digital data), projects, fieldwork events, archaeological sites, records of individual finds and a library of 3D models. Data and descriptive information are continuously taken from the AMCR and presented in the the AMCR Digital Archive interface.

Cylinder Seals

VMRS

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
In addition to the common documentation methods of cylinder seals by rolled impression and photography, this collection also offers 3D-models and digital impressions. The 3D-scans can be performed without impacting the objects, thus reducing the risks. This method allows even the most fragile of seals to be documented, including those too delicate to be used for a rolled impression. These scans offer a true-to-scale reproduction of the seals.

Construction Drawings

ACDC

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
In the Hellenistic and Roman period, many buildings and material objects were constructed using structural geometrical specifications. Ancient sundials were built using basic geometrical forms of very few construction types taking also into account the astronomical dimensions. In architectural drawings, comparable proportions can be found. The tower of the winds merges all these geometrical principles of construction. The construction drawings of this collection comprise geometrical drafts used for the construction of buildings. They differ from simple geometrical forms in that they present the general layout of the lines indicating objects and geometrical areas. Their geometrical dimensions are constructed according to the principles of proportional relations and were implemented in – sometimes very complex – work processes in which artefacts of the original objects were constructed. Construction drawings from the pillars of Didyma, which were discovered by Lothar Haselberger, serve as a paradigmatic model for these architectural drawings.

ArkeoGIS

ArkeoGIS

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
ArkeoGIS is a unified scientific data publishing platform. It is a multilingual Geographic Information System (GIS), initially developed in order to mutualize archaeological and paleoenvironmental data of the Rhine Valley. Today, it allows the pooling of spatialized scientific data concerning the past, from prehistory to the present day. The databases come from the work of institutional researchers, doctoral students, master students, private companies and archaeological services. They are stored on the TGIR Huma-Num service grid and archived as part of the Huma-Num/CINES long-term archiving service. Because of their sensitive nature, which could lead to the looting of archaeological deposits, access to the tool is reserved to archaeological professionals, from research institutions or non-profit organizations. Each user can query online all or part of the available databases and export the results of his query to other tools.
