Chemical Examination of Prehistoric Smudged Wares

Direct chemical evidence for widespread dairying in prehistoric Britain.

Domesticated animals formed an important element of farming practices in prehistoric Britain, a fact revealed through the quantity and variety of animal bone typically found at archaeological sites. However, it is not known whether the ruminant animals were raised purely for their tissues (e.g., meat) or alternatively were exploited principally for their milk. Absorbed organic residues from pot...

Mineralogical and Chemical Composition Characterization of Prehistoric (woodland Period) Ceramics from Fort Bragg, North Carolina

As part of the Cultural Resource Management (CRM) evaluation process, fifty (50) Woodland ceramic sherds were selected by the Ft. Bragg (North Carolina) archaeological staff. The sherds were chosen so that they might give a sense of the range of variation that may exist within a single drainage and the differences that may exist between the river drainages (Table 1). The three river drainages i...

Chemical Analysis of Pottery Demonstrates Prehistoric Origin for High-Altitude Alpine Dairying

The European high Alps are internationally renowned for their dairy produce, which are of huge cultural and economic significance to the region. Although the recent history of alpine dairying has been well studied, virtually nothing is known regarding the origins of this practice. This is due to poor preservation of high altitude archaeological sites and the ephemeral nature of transhumance eco...
