The analysis of contemporary and archival satellite images and archaeological documentations presents the possibility of monitoring the state of archaeological sites in the Near East (for example, Palmyra in Syria). As it will be demonstrated in the case of Upper Egyptian sites, the rapid growth of agricultural lands and settlements can pose a grea...
Article
A vast amount of ceramics ‐among other grave goods‐ were recovered from Castillo de Huarmey, a Wari culture (650‐1050 AD) archaeological site on the north coast of Peru. In order to assess ceramic production area(s) and possible trade, political or cultural interactions with other regions, and to complement earlier petrographic analysis, electron m...

Ever since field survey has become an important method in researching ancient communities we can observe improvement of its technological and theoretical aspects. Nowadays, rapid urban sprawl and intensified agriculture lead to the increasing destruction of sites and archaeological landscapes throughout the globe. Thus, an adequate low budget strat...

Mobile GIS application on smarthphones in archaeological field prospection (there is a mistake in pdf. English title should be: Mobile GIS application on smartphones in archaeological field prospection) Nowadays, there are many GIS applications available for phone or tablet. Many but not all of these applications can have professional geodetic fun...

The Peruvian Andes are well known for its ethnic and highly compressed ecological diversity. Ancient and modern Andean societies faced and continue to face various crises of climatic, social, political, or economic nature. Those crises forced the population to establish different types of inter-group relationships and identities, resulting in vast...

Discovered in 2012 in Castillo de Huarmey (Peru), the unplanned tomb of the Wari culture elite and the artefacts contained in it allow learning about many aspects of the life of the Wari people. Analyzes of Ag, Cu and Pb isotopes of small fragments of metal monuments from this tomb were performed (5 samples of silver alloys and 10 samples of copper...
Article
This paper presents Ag, Cu and Pb isotopes for 5 silver and 10 copper artefacts found in the first intact pre‐Columbian tomb of the Wari culture female elite at Castillo de Huarmey, Peru. Ag and Cu isotope data indicate that the metals were extracted from primary, hypogene ore deposits. Most of the Pb isotope data for the Castillo de Huarmey artefa...

Archaeological field surveys, even the most intensive and systematic ones, cannot be considered flawless methods of acquiring data. Archaeological landscapes’ state of preservation, surface collection methods and agenda, visibility and personal preferences can affect the final results. It is not simply just the registration of observations, but a p...

Fieldwork in early 2019 by the Gebelein Archaeological Project encompassed surveys of two cemeteries situated south of the ancient town of Per-Hathor/Pathyris in the area of the Eastern Mountain of Gebelein. One of these is dated to the Old Kingdom and the First Intermediate Period, the other tentatively to Fatimid times. The third survey searched...
Article
The Northern Necropolis of Gebelein was a place of important discoveries, e.g. an archive of Old Kingdom papyri, the Tomb of Unknowns, and the Tomb of the General Iti II. Several excavations have taken place there, but none have been sufficiently published. The archaeological contexts of these discoveries are poorly known, which limits their resear...
Article
The ceramics of Castillo Huarmey, a Wari-culture political center and elite necropolis on the north coast of Peru (ca. 750–1000 CE) were subjected to mineral studies to assess production practices and proveniences. The diversity and quality of grave goods suggested non-local productions and quality-controlled manufacture. However, relying on experi...

Have you ever wondered if it is possible to create field documentation using only your mobile phone? Can you imagine that you have just one tool to measure coordinates, take photos, create 3D models, plan your drone path and fill in the artefact database? Well, it seems that we are on the edge of a technological revolution: in the next few years, w...

Archaeological sites are mostly preserved through their field documentation: plans, sketches, photos, descriptions, etc.. Nowadays all this data can be gathered and analyzed in Geographic Information Systems. GIS allows to conduct spatial analysis and its results may give new information about sites. Through the example of three case studies I woul...

e Gebelein archaeological site complex is located 󰀲󰀸 km southwest of Luxor, on the west-ern bank of the Nile in the Qena Governorate in Egypt. Practically all kinds of archaeological sites known in Egypt are represented in the site complex, dating from the Paleolithic through the Islamic Period (Marochetti 󰀲󰀰󰀱󰀳; Ejsmond 󰀲󰀰󰀱󰀳). e area has been vis...

Along the Nile, speoi could be found in several places 2. It is tempting to suspect that the construction of such cult places were determined by the local landscape. Rocks near the river could host shrines made with relatively low expense. It seems that such constructions were made since the reign of queen Hatshepsut because none of known ones pred...
