Abstract
The «green archaeometry» concept is introduced as a new paradigm for a sustainable method of research in archaeology. Sustainable as aimed at providing the archaeologists with tools for recognizing the combination of the compositional, technological, and typological macroscopical markers, for identifying a specific production without destructive and expensive analyses, as in the case of ceramics. Moreover, in the spirit of «green archaeology » the aim is to recycle and reuse old samples for reanalysis, rather than resample for new analyses and to limit new sampling to the strict necessary.File in questo prodotto:
