Late Chalcolithic Northern Mesopotamia in Context. Papers from the Workshop held at the 11th ICAANE, MUnich, April 5th 2018
2022
Many of the debates that have until recently driven research into Mesopotamia's proto-urban phase (5th- 4th millennia BCE) have now been reassessed thanks to new fieldwork in Iraqi Kurdistan and new data into the relationships between the north and south of the Alluvium from hitherto poorly-documented regions. These debates were re-examined in the light of this new material during a workshop held at the ICAANE in 2018 in Munich, leading to unprecedented perspectives on the patterns of early urbanization, social mobility, and the organization of Late Chalcolithic communities. Drawing on research first presented at ICAANE, and building on the most recent data from surveys and excavations, thi…
Multitranslation within the Catalan and Valencian standards: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone as a case in point
2010
En aquest article, en primer lloc definim la multitraducció i fem una classificació selectiva dels principals productes multitraduïts en llengua catalana. Després de situar la multitraducció com a objecte d’estudi de la sociologia de la traducció, analitzem el polisistema de la traducció en llengua catalana tot fent un repàs pels cosistemes lingüístic, politicoeconòmic i comunicativocultural, que determinen d’una o altra manera la multitraducció. Seguidament, presentem el cas de la multitraducció de Harry Potter i la pedra filosofal tot fent una anàlisi comparativa de les versions catalana i valenciana i analitzant la recepció que va tindre en l’àmbit acadèmic i literari. Per acabar, defini…
Dinamiche di popolamento e processi di trasmissione culturale nel comprensorio madonita attraverso la ricostruzione della viabilità antica
2020
La ricerca sulle Madonie nasce con l’intenzione di approfondire l’evoluzione storica del popolamento sulla regione montana della Sicilia nord-occidentale. Il territorio, che solo in anni recenti è divenuto oggetto di più approfondite ricerche storico-archeologiche, si presenta estremamente ricco di risorse naturali e caratterizzato da un sostrato culturale variegato che abbraccia territori d’alta montagna, dediti ad una economia silvo-pastorale prettamente conservativa, e insediamenti costieri fortemente proiettati allo scambio e al commercio. A fine di comprendere lo sviluppo delle dinamiche d’insediamento di un’area molto estesa, si è proceduto anzitutto con la restituzione ipotetica dei …
Electrochemical discrimination of manufacturing types of pottery from Magna Mater Temple and Fora of Nerva and Caesar (Rome, Italy)
2018
Abstract The voltammetry of immobilized microparticles (VIMP) methodology is applied to a series of pottery samples from the Roman sites of Nerva's Forum (second half of 9th-early 11th A.D), Caesar's Forum (second half of 9th-early 11th A.D) and Magna Mater Temple (III century). The VIMP sampling applied to voltammetric and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements was applied by the first time to acquire archaeometric information on archaeological pottery. VIMP measurements using pressed sample pellets on gold electrodes in contact with air-saturated 0.10 M H2SO4 have permitted to detect voltammetric signals for the reduction/oxidation of Fe and Mn minerals as well as catal…
Non-invasive investigation on pigments of the Aeolian Islands Neolithic pottery
2023
The Neolithic painted pottery, spread all over southern Italy, is considered as an important chronological indicator for the development of VI-V millennium BC prehistoric settlements and cultural traditions. The goal of this work is to contribute to the study of this ceramic class through the chemical characterization of some samples coming from the Aeolian Islands. 16 different sherds have been selected and the pigments preserved in their decorations analyzed via non-invasive techniques: Fiber Optical Reflectance Spectroscopy (FORS), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), Raman Spectroscopy and Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). The different pigments, some of which no longer clearly visible to the naked e…
Lo scavo della Chiesa di Santa Maria Degli Angeli alla Gancia: indicatori archeologici della prima età islamica a Palermo
2014
Lo scavo in occasione del restauro della chiesa di Santa Maria degli Angeli alla Gancia a Palermo ha permesso di recuperare alcune stratigrafie affidabili relative alla prima età islamica a Palermo. Lo studio della ceramica ha restituito una serie di indicatori cronologici per il IX-X secolo nonché di proporre nuove cronologie per alcune classi di materiali. Relativamente alla storia della città questo scavo ha aggiunto alcune note importanti che riguardano il porto e la cittadella e mirale la al-Halisah.
Low cost system for visualization and exhibition of pottery finds in archeological museums
2015
The objective of this project is to build a low-cost system for surveying, modeling, prototyping and interactive visualizing aimed at the enhancement of islamic pottery finds of X – XI centuries. The system will allow various applications: the creation of systems for displaying artifacts from the museum alongside the exhibition, the virtual view of restorations from fragments, including AR and VR, the physical reconstruction of the original form using 3D printer to show the pieces in their entirety, as well as the construction of interactive virtual archives to be made available to scholars and visitors.
Non-invasive characterization of archaeological polychrome pottery and metallic artefacts: advantage and limits of XRF in situ analysis
2014
Étude typologique, technologique et culturelle de la céramique du Petit-Paulmy à Abilly (Indre-et-Loire)
2009
Anhand einer qualitativen und quantitativen Studie wurden die minimale und die maximale Anzahl der dem Endneolithikum zugeordneten Keramikindividuen ermittelt. Der Corpus umfasst drei typologische und technische Gruppen, die drei chronologischen und kulturellen Phasen entsprechen. Eine Quantifizierung der unterschiedlichen Formen vermittelt ein Bild des endneolithischen Keramikrepertoires des Fundplatzes. Der für die Herstellung der Keramik benutzte Ton ist lokaler Herkunft. Es existiert eine Korrelation zwischen der Dicke der Wandung, der Form der Gefäße und den unterschiedlichen Herstellungstechniken (Glättung, Schaben, Schlagen, Kieselglättung). Die Gefäße der drei Hauptformen wurden in …
Chemical characterization of ancient potteries from Himera and Pestavecchia necropolis (Sicily, Italy) by Inductively Coupled Plasma–Optical Emission…
2011
Abstract Thirty-eight samples of pottery were analyzed for determining chemical composition in order to establish their provenance. The potteries tested in the present research come from Himera and Pestavecchia archaeological sites. After digestion in microwave oven, the samples have been analyzed for fourteen minor elements (Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ga, Li, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sr, Ti, Tl, and Zn) and six major elements (Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, and Na). Chemical analysis was carried out by Inductively Coupled Plasma–Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP–OES). The most abundant minor elements are Cr, Ba and Ni. Cr concentration ranged from 66 to 3635 mg kg − 1 , Ba concentration ranged from 388 to 2677 mg kg − 1…
