This paper presents the study of bronze artefacts resulting from an accidental discovery in the Preajba neighbourhood of Târgu Jiu municipality, Gorj County, Romania. In addition to the presentation of the field assessment and artefact analogies, the objects were analysed using optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with Energy-Dispersive X-Ray (EDX), in order to highlight the morphology of the corrosion crust and to determine the elemental composition of corrosion and soil contamination products. Thus, it was possible to establish the nature of the materials used and the manufacturing technology. Rezumat. În lucrare se prezintă studiul artefactelor de bronz rezultate în urma unei descoperiri întâmplătoare în cartierul Preajba, municipiul Târgu Jiu, jud. Gorj, România. Pe lângă prezentarea evaluării de teren și a analogiilor artefactelor, acestea au fost analizate prin microscopie optică (OM) și microscopie electronică de scanare (SEM) cuplată cu energia dispersivă de raze X (EDX) pentru evidențierea morfologiei crustei de coroziune și stabilirea compoziției elementale a produșilor de coroziune și a celor din contaminare din sol. Astfel s-a putut identifica natura materialelor folosite și tehnologia de manufacturare. Keywords: Bronze, corrosion, OM, SEM-EDX. Introduction Systematic research, as well as accidental discoveries, reveals a rich archaeological material that leads to a better understanding of the prehistoric communities. Study of whole or fragmentary artefacts, from different historical periods, by involving non-destructive (preserving the integrity of the artefact) or micro-invasive (the need for sampling or cleaning a very small surface due to the formation of corrosion layer on the artefact) analyses methods, aims to determine the composition of alloys, the mechanism of chemical, 1 Faculty of History, ”Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iași; [email protected]. 2 Faculty of History, ”Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iași; [email protected]. 3 “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iași, Institute of Interdisciplinary Research–Interdisciplinary Sciences Department, Arheoinvest Center; [email protected]. 1 Interdisciplinary Study of a Bronze Hoard from Gorj County, Romania electrochemical, microbiological corrosion, as well as the compounds formed by the alteration processes4. On the territory of Preajba locality, Gorj County, was discovered a bronze hoard and two atypical ceramic fragments, which are the object of another investigation5. In this study were analysed only the metal fragments consisting of: three fragmentary bracelets, three fragments of a sword blade, a pendant and a celt fragment. The artefacts were analysed using OM and SEM-EDX methods in order to establish the raw materials and the production technology. 1. Archaeological context After the accidental discovery of a bronze hoard made with a metal detector, in Preajba locality, Gorj County, a request was made by the Gorj County Department for Culture to conduct a field assessment to determine the archaeological potential of the region6. The area under investigation is located in the Getic Subcarpathians, in the Târgu Jiu Depression. From an administrative point of view, the area is located in the north of Gorj County and belongs to the city of Târgu Jiu. The site where the hoard was discovered is approximately 2 km west of DC2 Preajba, in the forest, between two streams, the Holdun River to the east and the Gornac creek to the west (45° 04'55.00643 "; 23° 22'36.96681") (Figure 1). Initially, the research focused on the perimeter where the bronze hoard was discovered. To determine the archaeological context of the discovery, was drawn an archaeological trench (T1), oriented NW–SE, with dimensions of 5.30×1 m and with the depth of -0.60 m (Figure 2). In the trench profile were identified the remains of a pit, noted Context no. 1 (Cx. 1), with a depth of -0.30 m and an oval shape (0.60×0.40 m). This complex represents the hoard pit, largely destroyed in the moment of the discovery. Following the field evaluation, it we decided to expand the research area because there were some clues that nearby were located a previously unidentified archaeological site, as well as a tumular necropolis7. Both hypotheses have been confirmed. In the point called "La Fântâni" was discovered a settlement whose level of habitation begins during the 4 ROBBIOLA, BLENGINO, FIAUD 1998, 2083–2111; ROBBIOLA & PORTIER 2006, 1–12; SANDU et al., 2008, 256–266; 2010, 1054–1058; 2012, 1646–1652. 5 From this deposit, two other celts were handed over by the management of the County Museum "Alexandru Ștefulescu" Gorj for analysis to another institution. The information according to which all the objects were in the same deposit is based only on the statements of the discoverer and on the report signed between him and the Gorj County

  • Scylax of Caryanda on the Bosporus and the Strait at the Pillars
    Hyperboreus Vol.11 (2005) Fasc.2 SCYLAX OF CARYANDA ON THE BOSPORUS AND THE STRAIT AT THE PILLARS For Francesco Prontera We owe due to the Ora maritima by Avienus a number of valuable references to early authors and explorers. One of them presents the statement of Scylax concerning the Strait of Gibraltar (Or. mar. 370 ff. = 709 FGrHist F 8): sed ad columnas quidquid interfunditur undae aestuantis stadia septem vix ait Damastus esse; Caryandeus Scylax medium fluentum inter columnas adserit tantum patere quantus aestus Bosporo est. This piece of information about the man famous through his explora- tion of India and subsequent sail from Indian shores to Egypt (c. 518– 515 BC) has not impressed scholars.1 Moreover, the text of Avienus was cited to prove that Scylax had never been at the Strait of Gibraltar.2 I shall argue that the evidence implies the contrary, which entails rather impres- sive conclusions. It was repeatedly pointed out that since maximal breadth of the Bosporus is about 4,5 km and minimal breadth is just above 700 m, while the Strait of Gibraltar is 14,2 km broad at the narrowest, their likening is out of the mark.3 This fair observation was not supplemented, however, by the ques- 1 For Scylax in general and his Indian expedition in particular see: W.

  • "On the Relations of Canaanite Exploration to Pre-Historic Classic
    176 ON THE RELATIONS OF CANAANITE EXPLORATION These inecriptions, and the bas-reliefs on the monument called Kamna Hurmill, in Crelo-Syria, near the source of the Orontes, and possibly of the same pe1·iod, are an enigma, as yet, to the most learned Orientaliots. It is to be hoped, however, now that attention is again called to the subject, that the clue may be found that shall unlock their meaning, and that Northern 8yI"ia will be no longer overlooked by tho explorer. DISCOVERY AT THE l\IOSQUE EL AKS.A, JERUSALEM.-llo A DISCOVERY of considerable interest has been made in this :Mosque by the Rev. J. Neil, who has only recently gone to Jerusalem for the Society for the Conversion of the Jews. "In the Mosque of El Aksa," he writes, "you will remember that there is a long plain room opening out at the south-east angle, called the Mosque of Omar, in which the only object of interest whatever is a recess supported by two twisted pillars, and called the Mihrab, or Praying-place of Omar. You may, perhaps, remember that the pillars on each side of this recess, of Solomonic twisted pattern and polished marble, appear to have been turned upside down, and to have their capitals of greyish stone in broken leaf-like patterns below. On vi~iting this the day before yesterday, July 5th, I discovered that a great part of the yellowish plaster had been removed from the top of these pillars, and that rich grotesquely carved capitals were exposed to view in an admirable state of preserva­ tion.

  • I- Editorial for the Present Volume of Mare Nostrum
    Mare Nostrum , ano 2016, n. 7 I- Editorial For the present volume of Mare Nostrum, the editorial board implemented some changes regarding the journal profile, its editorial policy as well as the software platform in which it is available to the public. All those changes have been planned in order to improve our journal, to make it more accessible, and to give it more visibility among international researchers. In other words, Mare Nostrum has grown a lot since its first number and it is time to make room for all the experience and learning it has acquired throughout the years. Not all the changes are exactly new, though. One example is the practice of publishing articles on a variety of subjects that do not necessarily present the Mediterranean as a central subject, finding, however, in the Mediterranean a background against which questions and problems of investigation can be explicitly or implicitly raised. That flexibility can be noticed since our first number (2010). However, our open and encouraging way of dealing with diverse subjects and multiple questions, themes, places, and people directly or indirectly related to the Ancient Mediterranean is not exactly a novelty. Truthfully, we are incorporating as a formal editorial policy a practice carried out since the journal’s inception. Consequently, such formalization of an old informal policy does not change its identity, it actually asserts our understanding of the Mediterranean not only as the object of analysis, but also as one of the many “frames of History”.1 There are, indeed, some new features. From the present number on, Mare Nostrum will no longer have annual periodicity, but semiannual.

Meetings: W 4 (5:00-7:40, RAB-003) E-mail: [email protected] The purpose of this course is to provide an overview of the genre of ancient biographical writing, which is a sub-genre of historiography. Our understanding of Greek and Roman biography is shaped by the later development of genre when compared to other forms of historiography. That emergence has had the effect of leaving obscure the early stages of its evolution, especially in the late classical and Hellenistic periods. The most important surviving Greek and Latin biographical works are relatively late, deriving from the period of the Roman Empire. Here the figures of Suetonius and, first and foremost, Plutarch stand on eminences of the highest cultural importance for western civilization. The material covered in this course is aligned with the reading for Ancient History and Interdisciplinary track option of the MA and PhD. programs of the Department of Classics. Texts: Many of the main readings (in both Greek and Latin) for the course either can be downloaded from the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae or from the Perseus online archive or can be acquired by purchase or by borrowing from Rutgers libraries (in the editions as noted on the course bibliography).
