Archaeoloaical Chemistry IV
O
ur knowledge of the past has been greatly enhanced by archaeological chemistry. Now you can learn more about this fasci nating field—the applications and techniques used by chemists, new possibilities in determining age, authenticity, ancient diets, etc., analy sis of inorganic and organic materials, and more in this exciting new volume. Twenty-seven chapters examine the growing contributions that chemists and biochemists have made to the study of proteinaceous materials in archaeological samples. Divided into five sections, the topics include · lithic and ceramic materials · metals • art objects · organic materials · fibers. New and existing techniques are provided including instrumental neutron activation analysis, trace ele ment analysis, X-ray diffraction, IR microspectroscopy, carbon dating, radiocalcium dating, electron spin resonance, monoclonal antibody formation, scanning electron microscopy, and photomicrography. Separate chapters discuss the Shroud of Turin, composition of Nile sed iments, classification of Mexican majolica ceramics, metals of the Mediter ranean Bronze Age, composition of coins of the Roman Republic, the tomb of Nefertari, historical silk fabrics, and more.
