Deeb a Groningen Institute of Archaeology, University of Groningen Corresponding author, [[email protected]] b Centre for Isotope Research, University of Groningen c National Museum of World Cultures, Leiden d Faculty of Archaeology, Leiden University Abstract: In this article, radiocarbon dating has been used as a tool for investigating the authenticity of two Mesoamerican artefacts from the collection of the National Museum of World Cultures (Museum Volkenkunde), Leiden, the Netherlands. The first artefact is a ceremonial Aztec, possibly a tecpatl, knife, and it is presumed to date to 1300–1500 CE. The second object is a decorated Mixtec skull, presumed to date to 1400–1520 CE. The efficacy of radiocarbon dating was thoroughly tested in this study, especially in regard to the tiny quantities that could be sampled from the skull. However, with the newly revamped radiocarbon facility at the University of Groningen, this was an opportune moment to attempt such research. Ultimately, a credible result could not be obtained on the skull; however, the ceremonial knife was dated reliably to the Aztec period. The article also discusses the broader issue of whether radio­ carbon results can be used as a definitive proof of authenticity and examines the risk­reward nature of radiocarbon testing. Keywords: Mesoamerica, pre­Columbian artefacts, radiocarbon dating, authentication, museum studies. 1.

  • Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research
    Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research Gisela Eberhardt Fabian Link (eds.) BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD has become increasingly diverse in recent years due to developments in the historiography of the sciences and the human- ities. A move away from hagiography and presentations of scientifi c processes as an inevitable progression has been requested in this context. Historians of archae- olo gy have begun to utilize approved and new histo- rio graphical concepts to trace how archaeological knowledge has been acquired as well as to refl ect on the historical conditions and contexts in which knowledge has been generated. This volume seeks to contribute to this trend. By linking theories and models with case studies from the nineteenth and twentieth century, the authors illuminate implications of communication on archaeological knowledge and scrutinize routines of early archaeological practices. The usefulness of di erent approaches such as narratological concepts or the concepts of habitus is thus considered. berlin studies of 32 the ancient world berlin studies of the ancient world · 32 edited by topoi excellence cluster Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research edited by Gisela Eberhardt Fabian Link Bibliographic information published by the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek The Deutsche Nationalbibliothek lists this publication in the Deutsche Nationalbibliographie; detailed bibliographic data are available in the Internet at http://dnb.d-nb.de. © 2015 Edition Topoi / Exzellenzcluster Topoi der Freien Universität Berlin und der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin Typographic concept and cover design: Stephan Fiedler Printed and distributed by PRO BUSINESS digital printing Deutschland GmbH, Berlin ISBN 978-3-9816384-1-7 URN urn:nbn:de:kobv:11-100233492 First published 2015 The text of this publication is licensed under Creative Commons BY-NC 3.0 DE.

  • The Long Revolution of Radiocarbon As Seen Through the History of Swiss Lake-Dwelling Research
    Géraldine Delley The Long Revolution of Radiocarbon as Seen through the History of Swiss Lake-Dwelling Research Summary This paper reassesses the implementation of radiocarbon dating in archaeology based on the technique’s development while researching ancient lake dwellings in Switzerland be- tween 1950 and 1970. The aim is to explain archaeologists’initial failure to accept the re- sults obtained by this method. Two key issues are thereby the core focus of this analysis. The first concerns the disciplinary context that influenced the reception of 14C dating among prehistorians. The second deals with methodological discussions concerning 14C dating and dendrochronology, being radiocarbon dating’s most related chronological tool. While dendrochronology and 14C were first complementary in the 14C calibration process since the 1960s, it was then quickly realized that dendrochronology produced more detailed temporal data due to the good preservation conditions of wooden structures at Swiss lake dwellings and thus competed with 14C results. In fact, this competition had to do with the two differing methodologies of data acquisition and time measurement. Keywords: History of science; 14C; dendrochronology; Swiss lake-dwelling research. In diesem Artikel soll die Anwendung der Radiokarbondatierung in der Archäologie neu untersucht werden, basierend auf ihrer Entwicklung während der Erforschung der Schwei- zer Seeufersiedlungen zwischen 1950 und 1970. Ziel ist es zu erklären, warum die Archäo- logen die durch diese Methode gewonnenen Resultate zunächst nicht akzeptieren konnten. Zwei Schlüsselfragen leiten die Untersuchung: Die erste fragt nach dem disziplinären Kon- text, der die Rezeption von 14C unter Prähistorikern beeinflusste. Die zweite bezieht die methodologischen Aushandlungen über C14 und der damit verbundenen Methode der Dendrochronologie mit ein.

  • Iron Age Echoes Groups of Burial Mounds May Be Among the Most Tangible and Visible Remains of Europe’S Prehistoric Past
    D. Fontijn, Q. Bourgeois & A. Louwen (eds.) IRON AGE ECHOES Groups of burial mounds may be among the most tangible and visible remains of Europe’s prehistoric past. Yet, not much is known on how “barrow landscapes” came into being . This book deals with that topic, by presenting the results of archaeological research carried out on a group of just two barrows that crown a small hilltop near the Echoput (“echo-well”) in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands. In 2007, archaeologists of the Ancestral Mounds project of Leiden University carried out an excavation of parts of these mounds and their immediate environment. They discovered that these mounds are rare examples of monumental barrows from the later part of the Iron Age. They were probably built at the same time, and their similarities are so conspicuous that one might speak of “twin barrows”. The research team was able to reconstruct the long-term history of this hilltop. We can follow how the hilltop that is now deep in the forests of the natural reserve of the Kroondomein Het Loo, once was an open place in the landscape. With pragmatism not unlike our own, we see how our prehistoric predecessors carefully managed and maintained the open area for a long time, before it was transformed into a funerary site. The excavation yielded many details on how people built the barrows by cutting IRO and arranging heather sods, and how the mounds were used for burial rituals in the Iron Age.
