摘要
在 "Piana di San Martino "遗址(意大利皮亚琴察的 Pianello Val Tidone)的考古发掘中发现了几块皂石工艺品碎片,其年代可追溯到中世纪。为了确定其主要和附属种类的成分,对部分碎片进行了显微拉曼光谱分析。此外,还通过偏光显微镜观察、X 射线粉末衍射和扫描电子显微镜与能量色散系统分析,对晶体的形态和矿物相进行了研究,从而证实了拉曼分析的结果。对 12 块由滑石粉岩或绿泥石粉岩(包括含石榴石的绿泥石粉岩)制成的壶和一块磨石碎片进行了详细分析。通过对特定产品的鉴定,突出了对与使用这些文物有关的活动以及在其埋藏期间发生的改变过程的有趣发现。此外,还对这些碎片进行了移动拉曼测量,并成功地对其成分进行了快速有效的评估。这些结果突出了移动拉曼仪器在考古学领域的应用,特别是在可直接在原地进行初步鉴定的灰陶发现方面。
Multi-analytical characterization of archaeological fragments of pietra ollare from the Medieval site ‘Piana di S. Martino’ (Piacenza, Italy): A mobile and laboratory approach
The archaeological excavations in the site of ‘Piana di San Martino’ (Pianello Val Tidone, Piacenza, Italy) discovered several fragments of pietra ollare (soapstone) artefacts, dating back to the Medieval period. A selection of fragments was characterized with micro-Raman spectroscopy in order to determine their composition, in terms of main and accessory species. The morphology of the crystals and the mineral phases were also investigated with polarized-light microscopy observations, X-ray powder diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy-Dispersive System analyses, which corroborate the Raman results. A detailed characterization was obtained on 12 fragments ascribable to pots and a millstone, made of talc-schists or chlorite-schists, including garnet-bearing chlorite-schists. Interest findings about the activities related to the use of these artefacts and the alteration processes occurred during their burial period were highlighted by the identification of specific products. Additionally, mobile Raman measurements were performed on the fragments, and a quick and effective evaluation of their composition was successfully achieved. These results highlight the use of mobile Raman instruments in the field of archaeology, specifically referred to pietra ollare findings, for which a preliminary identification may be obtained directly in situ.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Raman Spectroscopy is an international journal dedicated to the publication of original research at the cutting edge of all areas of science and technology related to Raman spectroscopy. The journal seeks to be the central forum for documenting the evolution of the broadly-defined field of Raman spectroscopy that includes an increasing number of rapidly developing techniques and an ever-widening array of interdisciplinary applications.
Such topics include time-resolved, coherent and non-linear Raman spectroscopies, nanostructure-based surface-enhanced and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopies of molecules, resonance Raman to investigate the structure-function relationships and dynamics of biological molecules, linear and nonlinear Raman imaging and microscopy, biomedical applications of Raman, theoretical formalism and advances in quantum computational methodology of all forms of Raman scattering, Raman spectroscopy in archaeology and art, advances in remote Raman sensing and industrial applications, and Raman optical activity of all classes of chiral molecules.
