“…Each one of the different lime results means the average of at least three tests. UPV and compressive strength results in mortars can be correlated with it demonstrates that it can be a reliable non-destructive technique to evaluate mechanical properties of the materials without damaging them, being especially suitable for historical samples [11].

Restoration works for the cultural heritage in México have commonly used traditional materials, being the slake lime one of the main solutions employed. Nevertheless, other lime products have not been studied or applied in patrimonial works. The main objective of this research was to verify if high purity limes can be used as an alternative for restoration works, knowing that they have a higher powder surface area and consequently great efficiency. Compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity tests, (UPV), were carried on specimens of slaked lime and high purity limes in pastes and mortars, to compare the values obtained and decide in which restoration works they could be employed. Results showed a better performance of the high purity lime in mortars and slightly better values of the slaked lime for pastes.

“…Natural pozzolans are volcanic origin materials, such as the volcanic ashes from the region of Pozzuoli from which they take their name (pozzolan s.s.). These are often found in the mortars/plasters of sites located within or close to volcanic regions (Barba et al 2009;Özkaya and Böke 2009;Villaseñor and Graham 2010;Kurugöl and Güleç 2012), but when they are found in sites far from supply areas, archaeometric research is called upon to localise their origin and reconstruct the trade routes that allowed their import and usage. The provenance question may thus remain confined to the scale of the site and its territory or expand to longscale range imports and cross other issues such as those concerning the methods and extent of the marketing of raw materials in a given period (e.g.…”

Within the Topical Collection, this paper represents an introductory contribution aimed at describing and discussing the research questions and the sampling criteria in the field of mortars, plasters and pigments studies. The paper is divided into three parts. In the first part, some terminological issues are clarified and the building archaeology is introduced as an indispensable method for sampling and interpreting archaeometric results. In the second part, the most common research questions are presented and discussed. Some case studies are also reported to clarify what the expected results may be. The sampling problem is faced in the third part, where the criteria for a representative, functional and suitable selection are provided.

“…On the other hand, the calculation of the hydraulicity index (HI; Böke et al 2008;Kurugöl and Güleç 2012), which allows for a subtler distinction of the hydraulicity level, produced values in the range 0.1-0.2, indicating that the two samples can be classified as weakly hydraulic.…”

Characterization of Late Prehistoric Plasters and Mortars from Erimi – Laonin tou Porakou (Limassol, Cyprus)

et al. 2015

Several plasters and mortars from the Middle Bronze Age site of Erimi – Laonin tou Porakou (Cyprus) were analysed in order to perform a technological characterization. Morphological (SEM), elemental (EDX), mineralogical (XRPD), petrographic (polarized OM, SEM–EDX), thermal (TGA) and spectroscopic (FT–IR) techniques were applied. Plasters and mortars were identified as pyrotechnological lime products, obtained using local raw materials and containing a moderate amount of spathic calcite fragments. The use of organic fibres was ascertained and a seminal use of a crumbled ceramic as additive was evidenced.
