REPORT
ment of FLNS as an analytical tool owes much to previous members of the group: J. C. Brown, M. J. Sanders, M. McGlade, I. Chiang, R. S. Cooper, and D. Zamzow.

Archaeological Chemistry IV
O
ur knowledge of the past has been greatly enhanced by archaeological chemistry. Now you can learn more about this fascinating field—the applications and techniques used by chemists, new possi bilities in determining age, authenticity, ancient diets, etc., analysis of inorganic and organic materials, and more in this exciting new volume. Twenty-seven chapters examine the grow ing contributions that chemists and bio chemists 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 in cluding instrumental neutron activation analy sis, trace element analysis, X-ray diffraction, IR microspectroscopy, carbon dating, radiocalcium dating, electron spin resonance, mono clonal antibody formation, scanning electron microscopy, and photomicrography. Separate chapters discuss the Shroud of Turin, composition of Nile sediments, classifi cation of Mexican majolica ceramics, metals of the Mediterranean Bronze Age, composition of coins of the Roman Republic, the tomb of Nefertari, historical silk fabrics, and more.
