Compared to other Roman theatres in the Western Mediterranean, the Urbino theatre stands out for the sumptuousness of its marble renovation, especially in terms of the number of marble varieties. Finally, the situation for the various localities is reported and discussed in detail. In actual fact, although it is very probable that there were several dif. The MGS values for these samples ranged from 3.06 mm (sample C3) to 6.35 mm (sample C16). Recent archaeometric research, ... Microasiatic (Turkish) marbles are also well represented: marmo africano (or marmor luculleum, quarried near the ancient town of Teos, nowadays Sığacık, in the Izmir Province), the breccia corallina (or marmor sagarium, from the Vezirhan village, in the Bilecik Province), the pavonazzetto (or marmor phrygium, from Iscehisar, in the Afyon Province), and greco scritto. Cap de Garde quarry: stepped quarry fronts showing ancient (a) marks of e, /Ni: 40 kV and 20 mA), and to isotopic analysis of stable carbon and oxygen isotopes, beds (Fig. 3A-D. In spite of the relatively small volume of data, tendencies can be identified which indicate a decisive, increased importance of the Asia Minor marble quarries after the early 2nd century A.D., whereas the import of Pentelic marble from Attica declined, at least for inscribed blocks.

No less importantly, applying this type of geochemical analysis to inscriptions of known provenance and date promises to deliver vast amounts of new information on the history of individual production centers and the shifting demand for their marbles around the ancient Mediterranean economy. Minero-petrographic and geochemical characterization of "Greco Scritto" marble from Cap de garde, near Hippo Regius (Annaba, Algeria) August 2008 Archaeometry 51(3):351 - 365 Provenance determination of polychrome marbles was obtained through macroscopic examination; thin section petrography, X-ray diffraction and stable isotopic analysis (δ18O and δ13C) for white marbles. It is open to all contributions dealing with a wide framework of classical archaeometric studies as well as research concerning the CH conservation. Nonetheless, to date, detailed petrographic descriptions of a sufficiently large set of samples of the Hasançavuslar marble are still unpublished (greatly limiting the comparative studies) and a different origin (Kavala in Greece, other sites near Ephesos, or Proconnesos and other localities of the northwestern coast of Anatolia in Turkey) [24][25] cannot therefore be unequivocally ruled out, especially considering the maximum grain sizes of some central Adriatic samples (some samples have a MGS between 3.25 and 4.30 mm) (Fig. Favorable economic conditions relating to submission costs: 25% discount on official rates for all potential contributions; 50% discount on 8 articles (selected by Guest Editors) signed by recogniz. ...

Roman archaeological contexts in North Africa: number of small scales that had already become partially detached from their marble substrata, were removed and subjected, following appropriate preparation, to the same laboratory analyses, as those carried out to create the reference database. He died in Naples on 1 February 2008, for complications due to his rare shape of adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. During the Late Republic and Early Empire, the area was one of the most urbanised regions in the Roman world. During Roman times, the whole of Lusitania, including its capital Augusta Emerita, was supplied with white and coloured marbles from this district. Estimates of 17000 m 3 is almost a half less than previously suggested. This paper presents the results of the characterisation, provenance determination, quantification (by count and weight) and contextualisation of the white and coloured marbles used for decorating the Roman theatre of Urbino (Marche region, Italy). from Aphrodisias, Carrara, Docimium, Naxos, Paros, Penteli, Proconnesos and Thasos) have been updated and detailed.

Professor Maniscalco was Vice President of the Italian Committee of the Blue Shield,[9] and member of the scientific committees of the Observatory Euro-Mediterranean and the Black Sea [10] and of the "Museo della Nave Romana di Grado" (Italian Ministry for Cultural heritage". The main goals of the paper are to contribute to a better understanding of the trade and use of marble in the region of central Adriatic Italy in Roman times, and to demonstrate the socio-cultural importance of architectural décor in Roman society, especially through comparison of the Urbino case with contemporary theatres in the Western Mediterranean. In total, twenty-six marble varieties have been identified in the Urbino theatre assemblage.

As for the isotopic values, the data referring to quarry samples and to ancient artifacts is discussed separately first, then a new global reference diagram is proposed. This contribution presents the results of an archaeological and archaeometric study of the provenance and use of marble in Roman central Adriatic Italy. Gr = graphite, Pl = plagioclase, Tnt = titanite, Chl = chlorite, Cam = Ca-clinoamphibole, Dol = dolomite, MGS = maximum grain size, outcropping in the two areas described above, from a number of rock chips from ancient workings, and from a small fragment of a rough-hewn column found in the quarry area.

Stable isotope results are expressed in δ (‰) values, relative to the international PDB standard. The more and more dynamic, unstable, and aggressive environments in which CH materials are located (e.g., air pollution and atmospheric processes, changing temperature and thermal shock, and biological and/or anthropic activities) strongly contributed to their physical decay and chemical weathering (always in function of their mineralogical, chemical, and physical features). All of the archaeometric data collected indicate that the marble blocks in the cargos are from the Greek island of Thasos, in the northern Aegean Sea. Concerning the latter, its, nature still remains ambiguous; in fact, optical features (e.g., colourless, no pleochroism) and, XRD data point to tremolite–actinolite series, but its chemical composition, examined by SEM, + EDS microanalysis (Fig. Google has many special features to help you find exactly what you're looking for.

It is proposed that the edict was issued by Caesar Augustus in response to the desecration of the grave of a famous tyrant from Kos named Nikias, a theory which more logically fits with the provenance of the marble and the events of that time. This approach has been used by many different teams from the beginning of application of stable C and O isotopes to marble provenancing (e.g. Due to the complete absence of any local marble supplies on the island, the materials were exclusively imports from a variety of regions of the eastern Mediterranean, Italy and North Africa. This paper presents the results of an archaeometric study performed on white marbles from the shipwreck of Cala Cicala (Crotone, Calabria, Italy). Nevertheless, ancient and modern buildings, artifacts, and findings are mainly made of natural and artificial materials obtained from geological resources; therefore, a proper mineralogical-petrographic and chemical-physical characterization of these CH materials again plays a pivoting role for (i) exploring several aspects of the archaeological, architectural, and fine arts contexts; (ii) understanding the interaction of artefacts with the environment; and (iii) evaluating possible damage and consequent strategies for conservation within cultural sustainability. arian marble from Lakkoi and Karavos (the island of Paros, Cyclades, Greece); Minero-petrographic and isotopic features of the ‘, , in Morocco; Cyrene, in Libya; and Carthage and Utica, in, ), #C1 (Carthage) and U2 and U2a (Utica).

The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive characterisation of the white marble exploited in antiquity in G€ oktepe (Mu� gla Province, Turkey) to increase the reliability for identifying this marble in ancient artefacts. Simple but precise equations for the mass spectra effects have been derived, which give the correction factors as functions of the measured differences between sample and standard. Morto oggi per un malore nella sua isola di Ischia. In 1997 Fabio Maniscalco was decorated by the President of Italy Oscar Luigi Scalfaro for his activity in the field of safeguard of cultural property. average MGS less than two mm) and to the medium-to coarse-grained (i.e. Askri, H., Belmecheri, A., Benrabah, B., Boudjema, A., Boumendjel, K., Daoudi, M., Drid, M., Ghalem, T., Docca, A.
