Neutron Methods for Archaeology and Cultural Heritage
This book provides an extensive overview of the application of neutron characterization techniques in cultural heritage to a broad audience and will be of interest to both scientists and non-scientists in the field. Archaeologists, paleontologists, restaurateurs and conservators, historians and collectors will be fascinated by the wealth of information that can be obtained using neutron techniques, while material scientists and engineers will find details of the experimental techniques and materials properties that can be determined. Neutrons, due to their weak interactions with materials, provide a penetrating, but non-invasive probe of bulk properties. They allow the characterization of th...
Abu Tbeirah Excavations I. Area 1
This book presents the results of the archaeological activities and specialistic studies carried out at the site of Abu Tbeirah (Nasiriyah, Province of Dhi Qar, southern Iraq) by the Iraqi-Italian joint mission of the Iraqi State Board of Antiquities and Heritage and of Sapienza, led by F. D’Agostino and L. Romano (Dipartimento – Istituto Italiano di Studi Orientali). In the volume the accomplishments of the first seven campaigns (2011-2016) are introduced together with an assessment of the palaeo-environment and landscape surrounding the site. After an introduction to the reasons that led to start the archaeological activities in Abu Tbeirah, written by HE Dr A. Al-Hamdani, Minister of Culture of the Republic of Iraq, the diggings in the south-eastern Area 1 are presented (the cemetery and the other activities identified immediately under the top-soil and the last phase of Building A). A preliminary assessment on the Early-Dynastic III/Akkadian Transition pottery horizon (2450-2150 BC) is presented as well. At the same time, the multifaceted analyses and studies, carried out on Abu Tbeirah’s site and findings, are included in the volume.
Earth Observation, Remote Sensing and Geoscientific Ground Investigations for Archaeological and Heritage Research
This book collects 15 papers written by renowned scholars from across the globe that showcase the forefront research in Earth observation (EO), remote sensing (RS), and geoscientific ground investigations to study archaeological records and cultural heritage. Archaeologists, anthropologists, geographers, remote sensing, and archaeometry experts share their methodologies relying on a wealth of techniques and data including, but not limited to: very high resolution satellite images from optical and radar space-borne sensors, air-borne surveys, geographic information systems (GIS), archaeological fieldwork, and historical maps. A couple of the contributions highlight the value of noninvasive an...
Una santa, un villaggio: Santa GIULIA V.M.
Monsignor Antonio Fappani pubblicò nel 1984 un "libricino" intitolato "Una santa, un villaggio: S. GIULIA V.M.". La pubblicazione era destinata a celebrare la fondazione della Parrocchia di Santa Giulia del Villaggio Prealpino di Brescia. L'autore, con la straordinaria modestia che lo contraddistingue, tende ancor oggi a minimizzare il valore del contributo di ricerca sulla figura di questa santa costituito da questo libro. La testimonianza di fede rappresentata dal martirio di Santa Giulia è oggetto di moderne interpretazioni fantasiose, espressione di illazioni ed ipotesi formulate in modo estemporaneo e senza fondamento di competenza e ricerca storica. Per questo, il lavoro di Monsignor...
