Abstract
Post-burial fragmentation of microvertebrate skeletons
Naomi D Smoke
Peter W Stahl
1093 - 1100
An experiment designed to assess the effect of post-burial compaction on microvertebrate skeletons was achieved by compacting an owl pellet assemblage and a simulated natural death assemblage under increasing pressure in sediments of differing grain size. Observations of the compacted assemblages suggest that the distinct signatures associated with dissimilar agents of accumulation can maintain their integrity after tertiary modification in buried substrates.
Raman microscopy in archaeological science
Gregory D Smith
Robin Clark
1137 - 1160
The article covers consisely the theory and instrumentation of Raman microscopy and reviews the many applications of this technique in archaeometric research. The significant advances made in archaeological science through the use of Raman microscopy are highlighted, but many areas requiring further research, such as the generation of more extensive and reliable spectral libraries and the surmounting of obstacles in the analysis of certain classes of historical materials, are also revealed.
