About us

• Artefact , The virtual laboratory for
  archaeometry is dedicated to the promotion of
  advanced dating techniques for history and
  understanding the homo sapiens all the way
  through his artefacts alphabets, calendars,
  coins, thoughts, jewels, masks, mummies, rock
  art, sex, songs, and other activities.
• Archaeometry is also known as archaeological
  science, is a sub-discipline of anthropology
  which is the study of people, particularly human
  biological and behavioral variation in the
  present, as well as the past.
• More specifically time fossils archaeometry is
  the reconstruction of ancient behavior from the
  things people left behind.
• When combined with the study of the biological
  changes that human heredity has undergone over
  the last several million years, archaeometry
  provides an important part of our understanding
  of the evolutionary success of modern humans and
  Homo sapiens.

Significance of fossils Archaeometry to Human
Evolution

• The time fossils archaeometry record provides a
  unique, long-term view of the evolution of human
  behavior.
• The study of human evolution contains an
  experiment of the genetic, physical, and
  behavioral differences of the hominin lineage
  since we move away from other apes million years
  ago or more.
• As the nature of fossilized bones does record
  major changes in hominin behavior, it is not
  until about 2.5 million years ago with the first
  form of the archaeological record that we have
  rich facts for a more complete range of early
  human actions.
• Some artefacts (terra-cotta tablets, stelae, and
  other engraved stones, parchments, coins, etc.)
  are carrying a colophon written which have to be
  compared with those used in reports of earliest
  solar eclipses.
• In this way, calendrical could be anchored to the
  astronomical universal Era calendar.
• More ever, with megalithic artifacts, solstitial
  sunrises and sunsets are restructuring the
  landscape in the condition of the solar cycle.

Archaeological dating techniques

• Archaeological science or Time fossils
  Archaeometry has exacting value when it can
  provide absolute dates for archaeological strata
  and artifacts.

Some of the mainly important dating techniques
include

• Radiocarbon dating involves particularly the
  dating of organic materials.
• Dendrochronology Dating For trees and also
  crucial for evaluating radiocarbon dates.
• Thermoluminescence dating for inorganic material
  including ceramics
• Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) technique
  is for absolute dating and relatively profiling
  covered land surfaces in horizontal and vertical
  stratigraphic segments.

• Most frequently by measuring photons discharged
  from grains of quartz within sedimentary bodies.
• Electron spin resonance is applied in dating
  teeth (for example)
• Potassium-argon dating for fossilized hominid
  remains by association with volcanic sediments
  (the fossils themselves are indirectly dated).
