He went to Egypt in 1897 and worked there until he died in 1942, living at the Howard-Boston camp near the Pyramids. His recipe for success was that 'good pay, steady work, kind but firm trearment, must be the basis of all oriental faithfulness. Good work and faithfulness must be rewarded and the opposite punished. Mistakes in this matter are fatal.' In his obituary of Reisner (Antiquity, vol. XVII, no. 67, September 1963), J. W. Crowfoot wrote: 'He was innocent of the acquisitive foibles of an older generation of antiquaries and a Puritan of the Puritans in the matter of the purchase of small antiquities, knowing how much science has suffered from clandestine digging in Egypt and how easily an excavation camp may be turned into a den of thieves'. 11.

After a distinguished archaeological career, especially in the Near East, she became Principal of St Hugh's College, Oxford. She was, as The Times' obituary put it, 'a forceful character, greatly loved by all who worked with her'. Forcefulness was a helpful quality for anyone, male or female, who had to deal satisfactorily with Mortimer Wheeler. It did Dame Kathleen no harm either to have been the daughter of a greatly respected Director of the British Museum, Sir Frederic Kenyon. 15. 17th March, 1976. 16. 1957. 17. 1978. 18.

  • Chapter 4 the Hoabinhian of Southeast Asia and Its Relationship
    Chapter 4 The Hoabinhian of Southeast Asia and its Relationship to Regional Pleistocene Lithic Technologies Ben Marwick This chapter has been peer-reviewed and published in: Robinson, Erick, Sellet, Frederic (Eds.) 2018. Lithic Technological Organization and Paleoenvironmental Change Global and Diachronic Perspectives. Springer International Publishing. DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-64407-3 Abstract The Hoabinhian is a distinctive Pleistocene stone artefact technology of mainland and island Southeast Asia. Its relationships to key patterns of technological change both at a global scale and in adjacent regions such as East Asia, South Asia and Australia are currently poorly understood. These key patterns are important indicators of evolutionary and demographic change in human prehistory so our understanding of the Hoabinhian may be substantially enhanced by examining these relationships. In this paper I present new evidence of ancient Hoabinhian technology from Northwest Thailand and examine connections between Hoabinhian technology and the innovation of other important Pleistocene technological processes such as radial core geometry. I present some claims about the evolutionary significance of the Hoabinhian and recommend future research priorities. Introduction The Hoabinhian represents a certain way of making stone artifacts, especially sumatraliths, during the late Pleistocene and early Holocene in island and mainland Southeast Asia. Although it has been a widely accepted and used concept in the region for several decades, its relationships to key patterns of technological and paleoenvironmental change both at a global scale and in adjacent regions such as East Asia, South Asia and Australia are currently poorly understood. What makes these relationships especially intriguing is that the geographical locations of Hoabinhian assemblages are at strategic points on the arc of dispersal from Africa to Australia.

  • 3D-Documentation Technologies for Use in Industrial Archaeology Applications
    3D-DOCUMENTATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR USE IN INDUSTRIAL ARCHAEOLOGY APPLICATIONS A. Gruenkemeier a a Bochum University of Applied Sciences, Department of Surveying and Geomatics – [email protected] Commission WG V/2 – Cultural Heritage Documentation KEY WORDS: Application, Archaeology, Cultural heritage, Fusion, Photogrammetry, Terrestrial, Three-dimensional, TLS ABSTRACT: Industrial archaeology deals with questions of industrial culture and preservation of industrial monuments. The concept was introduced in 1955 in England, after the Swiss engineer Conrad Matschoss had expanded the history of technology to industrial monuments in 1932. The objective purpose of industrial archaeology is the preservation and documentation of the industrial-cultural heritage of international importance – a task which is mostly to be fulfilled in a race against time and hence, needs efficient and fast technologies for data capturing. Prior to an (accidental) destruction of industrial-cultural objects a correct geometrical and/or visual documentation must be reached using new technologies from the field of data capture, management and use of space-related information. This paper discusses interests in and problems of industrial archaeology, presents concepts for an integrated use of actual capturing techniques and shows typical applications. KURZFASSUNG: Die wissenschaftliche Disziplin, die sich mit Fragen der Industriekultur und Industriedenkmalpflege beschäftigt, bezeichnet man international als Industrial Archaeology (Industriearchäologie). Der Begriff wurde 1955 in England geprägt, nachdem 1932 der Schweizer Ingenieur Conrad Matschoss Technikgeschichte auch auf die Industriedenkmäler ausgedehnt hatte. Objekte der Industriearchäologie sind alle jene ober- und unterirdischen Bauten, die seit Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts erbaut worden sind. Die Dokumentation dieser international bedeutenden Zeit ist wichtig, aber häufig aufgrund der schnellen Abrissarbeiten nur schwer zu realisieren.

This can be seen by the remarkable increase in specialised literature on all archaeology-related disciplines. These advances have made it a science with links to many other sciences, both in the field of experimental sciences and in the use of techniques from other disciplines such as engineering. Within this last issue it is important to highlight the great advance that the use of photogrammetry has brought for archaeology. In this research, through a systematic study with bibliometric techniques, the main institutions and countries that are carrying them out and the main interests of the scientific community in archaeology related to photogrammetry have been identified. The main increase in this field has been observed since 2010, especially the contribution of UAVs that have reduced the cost of photogrammetric Citation: Marín-Buzón, C.; flights for reduced areas. The main lines of research in photogrammetry applied to archaeology are Pérez-Romero, A.; López-Castro, J.L.; close-range photogrammetry, aerial photogrammetry (UAV), cultural heritage, excavation, cameras, Ben Jerbania, I.; Manzano-Agugliaro, GPS, laser scan, and virtual reconstruction including 3D printing.

  • Hgis and Archive Researches: a Tool for the Study of the Ancient Mill Channel of Cesena (Italy)
    The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XLI-B5, 2016 XXIII ISPRS Congress, 12–19 July 2016, Prague, Czech Republic HGIS AND ARCHIVE RESEARCHES: A TOOL FOR THE STUDY OF THE ANCIENT MILL CHANNEL OF CESENA (ITALY) G. Bitelli a, F. Bartolini b, G. Gatta a, * a Dept. of Civil, Chemical, Environmental and Materials Engineering, University of Bologna, viale Risorgimento 2, 40136 Bologna - [email protected] ; [email protected] b Civil and Environmental Engineer - [email protected] Commission V, WG V/2 KEY WORDS: HGIS, historical cartography, georeferencing, archive search, mill channel, Cesena, industrial archaeology ABSTRACT: The present study aims to demonstrate the usefulness of GIS to support archive searches and historical studies (e.g. related to industrial archaeology), in the case of an ancient channel for mill powering near Cesena (Emilia-Romagna, Italy), whose history is weaved together with the history of the Compagnia dei Molini di Cesena mill company, the most ancient limited company in Italy. Several historical maps (about 40 sheets in total) inherent the studied area and 80 archive documents (drawings, photos, specifications, administrative acts, newspaper articles), over a period of more than 600 years, were collected. Once digitized, historical maps were analysed, georeferenced and mosaicked where necessary. Subsequently, in all the maps the channel with its four mills and the Savio river were vectorized. All the additional archive documents were digitized, catalogued and stored. Using the QGIS open source platform, a Historical GIS was created, encompassing the current cartographic base and all historical maps, with their vectorized elements; each archive document was linked to the proper historical map, so that the document can be immediately retrieved and visualized.
