GEODAP -Geoarchaeology of Daily Practices

GEODAP (ERC Consolidator 2020) is a @GeoUnipd project which aims at extracting Bronze Age lifeways from the domestic stratigraphic record. PI: Cristiano Nicosia

This week #FCLabs had the pleasure to host Cristiano Nicosia (@GeoUnipd) and @FedePolisca (@dBC_UniPD) from @Geodap_ERC to study samples of Bronze Age stabling crusts to understand the practices of animal husbandry and waste management, as part of @Iperion_Hs.

🙌The third campaign of excavation of @Geodap_ERC at "La Muraiola" site in Povegliano Veronese finished. ➡️The project aims at investigating the lifeways and the domestic structures of the Bronze Age.

We spent two great days with Tom Mcgroggan and Grant Taggart of Logitech UK at the @GeoUnipd @UniPadova learning how to use the LP70 lapping machine to produce our soil/sediment thin sections! Thanks for sharing your expertise with us!

A Christmas present here: The new GEODAP thin section lab is finally running! The lab revolves around a Logitech LP70 lapping machine, and soon a BROT will be added to expand the capability to produce high-quality thin sections!

Our crew spent three amazing days at the Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste enjoying 72 hrs of beamtime on the XRD1 line. We analyzed secondary phosphates directly ON the thin sections, hence with a very high target accuracy. Results soon from the GEODAP & DIANE projects!
