Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Archaeometry focuses on the scientific analysis of archaeological materials and artifacts. Recent studies investigate the material properties of lithic raw materials, ceramics, mortars, bone, and hair to understand prehistoric technologies, resource procurement, and degradation processes. The journal also examines the provenance of materials like clay and flint, the composition and use of ancient building materials, and the chemical and microstructural analysis of metals and pottery to reconstruct past technologies and social practices. Research includes the application of techniques such as XRF, SEM, Raman spectroscopy, and stable isotope analysis to address questions of material characterization, technological evolution, and cultural interaction.
