This chapter provides insights into Chinese ceramic technologies of both bodies and glazes as well as provenance by using isotopes applied to a number of case studies. The use of Sr isotopes to investigate Chinese high fired Celadon wares and Blue an... Read More about Isotopic investigations of Chinese ceramics.

Structural and chemical heterogeneity in ancient glass probed using gas overcondensation, X-ray tomography, and solid-state NMR (2020)
Journal Article
Rigby, S. P., Stevens, L., Meersmann, T., Pavlovskaya, G. E., Rees, G. J., Henderson, J., …Fletcher, R. S. (2020). Structural and chemical heterogeneity in ancient glass probed using gas overcondensation, X-ray tomography, and solid-state NMR. Materials Characterization, 167, Article 110467. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matchar.2020.110467

Rare ancient glasses have complex, multi-scale structures requiring more sophisticated and non-destructive pore characterisation techniques than usual. Homotattic patch models for nitrogen adsorption gave better fits to the isotherm data, more accura...

Seventh to eleventh century CE glass from Northern Italy: between continuity and innovation (2020)
Journal Article
Bertini, C., Henderson, J., & Chenery, S. (2020). Seventh to eleventh century CE glass from Northern Italy: between continuity and innovation. Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 12, https://doi.org/10.1007/s12520-020-01048-8

Previous analytical studies show that most of Northern Italian glass has been heavily recycled and that mixing of natron and plant ash glass was occurring (Verità and Toninato 1990; Verità et al. 2002; Uboldi and Verità 2003; Andreescu-Treadgold and...
