Kinship plays a role at the grassroots of social organization, especially in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, which is an important research topic in China. However, the relationship between diet and the social status of kinship and kinship members has been little explored in previous studies. In this article, 52 skeletal bone collagen samples from humans and buried dogs from three different kinships in the Xisima cemetery in China were analysed by stable C and N isotope analysis to reveal dietary strategies, and thus explore subsistence patterns and social structure. Overall, the mean human δ13C was −8.4‰ ± 1.3‰ (n = 44), with a range of −10.0‰ to −7.4‰, and the mean δ15N was 9.0‰ ± 0.7‰ (n = 44), with a wide range of 7.9–11.1‰, which shows that C4 food dominates people’s diet, and that their diet was varied. There are differences in diet and rank among different kinships. Similar situations exist among kinship members based on platforms. Along with previous research, this study provides unprecedented dietary details of different social stratification from martyrs, common people and small nobles to high‐ranking nobles in order to better understand the hierarchical Shang and Zhou dynasties society based on kinship.

As the number of studies in organic residue analysis (ORA) of ancient pottery—a sensitive but as of today also a destructive method—increases, archaeologists are interested in knowing which samples promise the biggest abundance of analytes in order to avoid unnecessary loss of artefacts. Another frequently asked question is whether the routinely performed cleaning procedure should be omitted for samples intended for ORA to preserve the availability of analytes. We tested several selection criteria commonly accessible to archaeologists (texture, position, shape) for lipid quantities in ancient pottery in order to determine the most productive sherds for analysis. Moreover, we monitored loss of lipids during the water‐and‐brush cleaning process. Beside the usually targeted straight‐chain fatty acids (FA), less abundant biomarkers such as α,ω‐dicarboxylic acids (DCA), ω‐(o‐alkylphenyl)alkanoic acids (APAA) and hydroxy fatty acids (HFA) were also screened. The highest concentrations of analytes were observed in rims of coarse‐textured plates and cooking pots, demonstrating the usefulness of the proposed criteria. The washing procedure applied here did not lead to a loss of bulk FA, although the effect on minor components was not uniform.
随着古陶器有机残留物分析（ORA）--一种敏感但目前也是一种破坏性的方法--研究数量的增加，考古学家们很想知道哪些样品可以获得最丰富的分析物，以避免不必要的文物损失。另一个经常被问到的问题是，对于准备用于 ORA 的样本，是否应该省略常规的清洁程序，以保持分析物的可用性。我们测试了考古学家常用的几种选择标准（质地、位置、形状），以确定古陶器中脂质的数量，从而确定最有价值的分析碎片。此外，我们还监测了水刷清洗过程中脂质的流失情况。除了通常针对的直链脂肪酸（FA）外，我们还筛选了α,ω-二羧酸（DCA）、ω-（邻烷基苯基）烷酸（APAA）和羟基脂肪酸（HFA）等含量较低的生物标记物。在质地较粗的盘子和烹饪锅的边缘观察到的分析物浓度最高，这表明所建议的标准非常有用。尽管对次要成分的影响不尽相同，但此处采用的洗涤程序并未导致大量脂肪酸的损失。

Two anchors discovered at Karaburun on the Black Sea coast in 2011 are very rare examples of wooden anchors from the Archaic period. The anchors, dated to the Archaic period, measure 460.5 cm (KA1) and 502 cm (KA2) in length. The solid piece of wood used to form the body and arms of the anchors was identified as a member of the white oak group (Quercus Sect. Quercus); in addition, holm oak (Quercus ilex L.), common dogwood (Cornus sanguinea L.), and bay laurel (Laurus nobilis L.) were used in the manufacturing of the other elements. The anchors are believed to have originated from the Black Sea shores.

This research delves into ancient pigment practices among the Goya‐Malabrigo societies in the Upper Delta of the Paraná River during the Late Holocene. Utilising Raman microspectroscopy and X‐ray diffraction, we analysed 33 samples from six archaeological sites and four natural outcrops. Our discoveries uncovered hematite in red pigments across diverse materials (potsherds, shells, human bones, and sediments), anatase adorning ceramics with whitish tones, and charcoal creating darker shades. These findings not only contribute to the understanding of the mineral composition of ancient colours used by Indigenous people in domestic and funerary contexts but also set the first stage for forthcoming provenance research, integrating multiple archaeometric techniques to unravel the origins of these compelling pigments.

Ceramic moulds are regarded as highly specialised, refractory tools used in metallurgy, yet their production process still needs clarification. Our research aimed to characterise the stages of operational chains applied in mould manufacture. The evidence comes from the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age lake settlement in Grzybiany in SW Poland, dated to 9/8th–5th century bce. The site provided rich data on tin‐bronze metallurgy, chiefly the lost‐wax technique, involving hundreds of broken and complete ceramic moulds. Multifaceted petrographic analyses of the sampled objects demonstrated that they were made from locally accessible raw material and processed entirely differently from other ceramics from the site. The paste was tempered with fine‐grained sand and an exceptional amount of organic material, plastic enough to wrap wax models. This proportion of organic temper did not occur in regular kitchenware of this period. The moulds were fired under well‐controlled conditions and relatively high temperatures (700–950°C). Through this sequence of operations, the Grzybiany community obtained high‐quality products designed specifically for metallurgical purposes.

Thermal profiles of 16 firings performed under various experimental conditions are investigated and compared, with special attention to cooling due to its significance in archaeomagnetism. Samples of different shapes and sizes handmade from six starting clays were fired once and repeatedly followed by magnetic measurements. The collected experimental data provide a broader view of the relationships among firing conditions, clay composition, and final ceramic products.According to direct measurements, open hearths and kilns reach very similar temperatures (800–900°C). Firing temperature and soaking time tend to be linearly related at temperatures around and above 700°C. Soaking time appears to be independent of the structure type around and above 800°C but not below 600°C. Heating rates and times are related exponentially. Only the cooling process distinguishes ’open’ and ’kiln’ firing, with kiln insulation being the primary factor controlling all thermal parameters. A possible relationship between cooling and fuel type is suggested. Cooling in open hearths and kilns differs from that in laboratory furnaces.The magnetic profiles obtained for various clays highlight the differences in composition, grain size, and thermal stability; increasing the number of firings reduces these later.

Barveh Tepe, an archaeological site from the Early Bronze Age in the Zagros Mountains of Iran, was the focus of an archaeometric analysis in this study. The aim was to evaluate the firing temperature of excavated pottery sherds from Barveh Tepe and to gain insights into the pottery‐making techniques employed. A range of analytical methods, including optical microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD), was utilized to characterize the pottery sherds. The results revealed the utilization of two primary types of raw clays: calcite‐rich (calcareous) and calcite‐poor (non‐calcareous). The presence of calcite in calcareous pottery samples was confirmed, with the calcareous pottery showing a low CO3−2 vibrational band, indicating a low firing temperature. Through the integration of SEM images, FTIR spectra, TGA curve and XRD pattern results, the estimated firing temperature range for Barveh Tepe pottery was determined to be between 600 and 1100°C. These findings provide new insights into the pottery‐making practices of the Early Bronze Age and shed light on the technological advancements of the period.
Barveh Tepe 是伊朗扎格罗斯山脉青铜时代早期的一个考古遗址，本研究对其进行了考古计量分析。目的是评估巴尔韦赫特佩出土陶器碎片的烧制温度，并深入了解所采用的制陶技术。研究采用了一系列分析方法，包括光学显微镜、傅立叶变换红外光谱（FTIR）、扫描电子显微镜（SEM）和能量色散 X 射线光谱（EDS）、热重分析（TGA）和 X 射线衍射（XRD），以确定陶器碎片的特征。结果表明，陶器主要使用两种类型的原粘土：富含方解石（石灰质）和贫乏方解石（非石灰质）。钙质陶器样本中方解石的存在得到了证实，钙质陶器显示出较低的 CO3-2 振带，表明烧制温度较低。通过整合扫描电子显微镜图像、傅立叶变换红外光谱、TGA 曲线和 XRD 图谱结果，确定了巴尔韦赫特佩陶器的估计烧制温度范围在 600 至 1100°C 之间。这些发现为了解青铜时代早期的陶器制作方法提供了新的视角，并揭示了这一时期的技术进步。

This article presents the results of analyses of the chemical composition of organic matter and the occurrence of characteristic geochemical and biochemical markers in 17 samples collected from the Second World War mass graves excavated in the Szpęgawski Forest and Death Valley, Poland. The results show that attempts to cover up mass crimes by burning the bodies of the victims have left their own traces—that each attempt to cover up the crime is associated with the creation of further evidence of the crimes committed.
