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. About us
Significance of fossils Archaeometryto 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 Archaeometryhas 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).
