New data of 87Sr/86Sr ratio in classical marble: an initial database for marble provenance determination

La influencia de Tiwanaku en San Pedro de Atacama: Una investigación utilizando el análisis de isótopos del estroncio

“…Si bien los arqueólogos han utilizado el análisis de los isótopos del estroncio para determinar la procedencia de artefactos de piedra (Curran et al 200;brilli et al 2005), de vasijas (Freestone et al 2003) y de maíz y de madera (English et al 200;benson et al 2003;Reynolds et al 2005), la mayoría de los análisis de los isótopos del estroncio en arqueología ha sido útil para responder a preguntas sobre migración humana (Sealy et al 99, 995;Price et al 99, 998, 2000, 200;Sillen et al 995, 998;Ezzo et al 997;Grupe et al 997;Montgomery et al 2000Montgomery et al , 2003bentley et al 2002Ezzo y Price 2002;Farnum et al 2003 Ms;Schweissing y Grupe 2003a, 2003bKnudson 200;Knudson et al 200, 2005;Wright 2005). Las diferencias en la relación de los isótopos del estroncio en el esmalte dental y huesos humanos pueden ser utilizadas para identificar los patrones de migración y el origen geológico de los inmigrantes (Ericson 985,989;Krueger 985 Ms;Sillen et al 989;Sealy et al 99;Price et al 99).…”

Provenance and compositional analysis of marbles from the medieval Abbey of San Caprasio, Aulla (Tuscany, Italy)

“…Many studies of the provenance of ancient marbles have been performed thanks to several procedures, including trace elements [6], cathodoluminescence [7,8], electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy [9,10], strontium isotopic distribution [11] and chemical analysis of inclusion fluids [12]. However, mineralogical and petrographic investigations, as well as carbon and oxygen stable isotope analyses, are more often used for these purposes .…”

A New Approach for Provenance Studies of Archaeological Finds: Inferences from Trace Elements in Carbonate Minerals of Alpine White Marbles by a Bench-to-Top μ-XRF Spectrometer

“…The X-Y-Z stage minimum step is 1.5 m. [4,39,40]. 13 C and 18 O data are expressed versus PDB standard [41]. Analytical protocol according to [42].…”

“…Analytical protocol according to [42]. Standard deviation: 0.1 ( % 0 ) for 18 O and for 13 C. * Data from [43]. In acronyms: C: calcite; D: dolomite.…”

“…Other techniques employed for marble characterization are cathodoluminescence [6,7], trace and rare earth element contents [8][9][10], electron paramagnetic/spin resonance [11], and 87 Sr/ 86 Sr isotopic ratios [12][13][14]. Chemical analyses were also attempted as a criterion for ascribing a marble to a specific source, and a large number of papers (see e.g., [15]) on this topic have been published 2 International Journal of Mineralogy following the first work by [16].…”
