The Identification of Proteoglycans and Glycosaminoglycans in Archaeological Human Bones and Teeth
Bone tissue is mineralized dense connective tissue consisting mainly of a mineral component (hydroxyapatite) and an organic matrix comprised of collagens, non-collagenous proteins and proteoglycans (PGs). Extracellular matrix proteins and PGs bind tightly to hydroxyapatite which would protect these molecules from the destructive effects of temperature and chemical agents after death. DNA and pr...
متن کاملMapping archaeological databases to CIDOC-CRM
The exponential growth of the Web and the availability of large number of digital datasets revealed the need for integrated access to heterogeneous and autonomous data sources. In the Cultural Heritage domain, ARIADNE supports transparent integration by means of an advanced metadata schema, based on CIDOC CRM, and adapted to the needs of archaeology. In this paper we present the mappings of two...
متن کاملBioarchaeology: Scientific Studies of Archaeological Human Skeletal Remains
Bioarchaeology is an interdisciplinary academic specialty, which through the scientific analysis and interpretation of archaeological human skeletal remains, bridges the link between the biological sciences, medicine, anthropology and social sciences. The cornerstone of bioarchaeology is the interaction between culture and human biology. Since the study of people and ancient societies is one of...
متن کاملAnalysis of collagen preservation in bones recovered in archaeological contexts using NIR Hyperspectral Imaging.
The scope of this article is to propose an innovative method based on Near Infrared Hyperspectral Chemical Imaging (NIR-HCI) to rapidly and non-destructively evaluate the relative degree of collagen preservation in bones recovered from archaeological contexts. This preliminary study has allowed the evaluation of the potential of the method using bone samples from the Early Upper Palaeolithic, M...
متن کاملArchaeological Excavation and Deep Mapping in Historic Rural Communities
This paper reviews the results of more than a hundred small archaeological “test pit” excavations carried out in 2013 within four rural communities in eastern England. Each excavation used standardized protocols in a different location within the host village, with the finds dated and mapped to create a series of maps spanning more than 3500 years, in order to advance understanding of the spati...
