Characterization of Roman Amphora Sherds Using Terahertz Time-of-Flight Tomography

“…Similar optical results are also found for Roman amphorae from Southern Spain and Southern Italy and are not presented here. The clay used for the production of the Northern Africa amphorae contains some ~50 µm large grains of impurities, which might be quartz, mica, or volcanic materials [3]. Moreover, as shown in Fig.…”

“…Evaluating the source and type of amphora sherd may affect the understanding of an archaeological site and contribute to a deeper understanding of Roman long-distance trade. In addition, as an index of Roman economic activity and seaborne trade, exploring the distribution of amphorae also helps to understand Roman production, consumption, demography, and economy [1][2][3].…”

Les céramiques anciennes sous le regard des archéosciences

“…des objets qui vise à mieux comprendre leur circulation et leurs réseaux de diffusion (Maritan et al, 2019 ;Nagy et al, 2019 ;Fantuzzi et al, 2019) mais aussi des déplacements de population. Ainsi les travaux d' Inacio et al (2019) mettent en lumière les relations entre stratégies d'approvisionnement et les modes de peuplement.…”

“…Fourteen articles have been selected for publication and they are distributed in three issues of the journal ArcheoSciences-Revue d'Archéométrie (issues 43-1, 43-2 published in 2019 and 44-1 published in 2020). Most of them deal diachronically with the problem of provenance with the aim of researching the origin of objects in order to better understand their circulation and distribution networks (Maritan et al, 2019;Nagy et al, 2019;Fantuzzi et al, 2019) but also population movements. Thus the work of Inacio et al (2019) highlights the relations between supply strategies and settlement patterns.…”
