西周倗国墓地绿松石珠微痕的数码显微镜分析

为有效揭示史前和历史时代早期出土玉器的加工痕迹,了解古代机械加工的起源和演变过程,选择西周倗国墓地出土的一枚穿孔绿松石珠,在带有景深扩展技术和三维图像重建功能VHX-500K型数码显微镜下进行微痕分析。发现其表面的打磨痕迹和孔壁上钻孔形成的多圈平行螺旋纹皆十分清晰。结合现代绿松石打磨的模拟实验和前人的工作,认为该枚绿松石珠表面打磨的工具应为一种机械转动磨盘,其具备粗磨和细磨两个功能。有关磨料的颗粒甚粗,其尺寸远大于现代细磨盘的磨料颗粒度。至于珠上的穿孔为对钻贯通,推测为空心管钻配合解玉砂高速旋转而成。这是国内首次将数码显微镜的景深扩展和三维重建技术应用于微痕分析,其研究成果可为古玉的科学鉴定,从加工工艺角度提供重要的信息。     

以科学发展观为指导从宏观上确保青海可持续发展战略的有效实施

党中央提出的科学发展观,是青海实施全面、协调、可持续发展战略的行动指南。而依据青海可持续发展的总体能力,从实际出发,建立有效的宏观保障体系,则是其必要条件。     

陕西历史博物馆藏汉代“华仓”瓦当表面析出物的分析研究

陶质文物表面析出物中含有机酸盐的现象在国内鲜有报道。本研究采用离子色谱仪(IC)、扫描电子显微镜-能谱仪(SEM-EDS)、X射线衍射仪(XRD)、傅里叶变化显微红外光谱仪(FTIR)、超景深显微镜(DM)对一件馆藏汉代“华仓”瓦当表面析出物进行了表征和检测。结果表明,瓦当表面析出物主要由少量的二水硫酸钙和大量有机酸钙盐[Ca₃(CH₃COO)₃Cl(NO₃)₂·6H₂O]组成,两种盐的形成与瓦当的制作过程、埋藏环境和灰尘有关,有机酸盐的形成还与馆藏环境中的乙酸有关。这种析出物不仅影响瓦当表面的真实文物信息,还会进一步腐蚀瓦当本体,建议从展柜中取出瓦当进行脱盐处理,存放在无酸的环境中。本检测分析为这件瓦当的保护修复方案的制定提供理论依据,也为类似文物样品的分析提供借鉴。     

古陶瓷科学技术研究在科技考古中的三例应用

利用多元统计分析方法研究了从杭州古中河南段采集的月白釉瓷片,浙江临安天目山地区发现的黑釉瓷片和景德镇历代青花瓷片的胎、釉化学组成和青花色料的变化规律。从而讨论了杭州古中河南段采集的瓷片可能就是凤凰山下万松林附近的修内司官窑制品;指山临安天目山地区新发现的窑群和黑釉瓷才是名副其实的天目窑和天目瓷;发现了元代以及明初洪武和永乐朝青花瓷所用的料可能是来自西域的进口料,而宣德青花瓷所用的色料多数可能是国产的粘土矿。     

Chemical and Mineralogical Alteration of Ceramics from A Late Bronze Age Kiln At Kommos,Crete: the Effect On the Formation of A Reference Group

The formation of reference groups comprises an important procedure in chemical provenance studies of archaeological pottery. Material from ancient kilns is thought to be especially suitable for reference groups, as it comprises a definite unit of past production. Pottery from the Late Minoan IA kiln excavated at Kommos, Crete was analysed in order to produce a reference group in this important area of Minoan ceramic production. The samples were characterized by a combination of techniques providing information on the chemistry, mineralogy and microstructure of the ceramic body. Initially, the study was unable to establish, in a straightforward manner, a chemical reference group. Different ceramic pastes and a range of selective alterations and contaminations, affected by variable firing temperatures and burial environment, were shown to be responsible for the compositional variability. Procedures are described to compensate for such alterations and the perturbations in the data that they produce.     

中国传统血料灰浆的应用历史和科学性

血料灰浆是中国古代建筑灰浆的重要代表作之一,体现出浓郁的中国传统工艺特色,反映了当时建筑技术的科技水平.本研究从血料灰浆的科技史入手,综述了传统血料灰浆的应用历史和制备方法,包括在油饰彩画地仗层、油漆地仗层、漆器和桥梁建筑等方面;结合各种现代科技文献评述了古代建筑灰浆中动物血蛋白的检测方法,包括各种物理化学方法和免疫法;阐述了灰浆中动物血的功能,如加气作用、减水作用、防水作用、平整和抗龟裂作用等,探讨了血料灰浆的作用机理.此外,还简述了血料、蛋清、糯米、红糖、桐油等有机添加剂的复配问题.本研究的总体目标是希望以此为基础,进一步加深对血料灰浆科学性和局限性的认识,并通过对血料灰浆的研究和传统工艺的科学化改进,更好地为当今古建筑修缮保护服务.     

农业生态区的数值划分——以桂西南为例

农业生态区划是土地承载力研究的重要内容,生态区划的数值分类,可避免传统方法主观性和任意性的弱点,桂西南山区16县(市)在系统聚类分析基础上划分为三个农业生态区:左江及右江下游河谷区,右江上游河谷区和靖西山原区。     

科学发展观的政治哲学方法论解读

科学发展观的哲学创新,就在于它是马克思主义哲学在当代的运用和发展,就在于它提出了关于发展的新观念。从党的第一代领导集体把我国引入社会主义发展方向并走上社会主义道路起,中国共产党第二代、第三代领导集体以及新一届党中央在实践中不断探索,在理论和实践上经历了从“发展是硬道理”到“全面发展观”和“科学发展观”的演变,形成了对当代中国发展问题的马克思主义中国化的政治哲学解答。     

New light on old pumice: the origins of Mediterranean volcanic material from ancient Egypt

This paper presents and discusses the Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) results newly obtained from pumice pieces found decades ago at the Egyptian sites of Maiyana, Sedment, Kahun, and Amarna – now in the collections of the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, and the Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology, London – which could be successfully related to several volcanic eruptions in the Mediterranean. The work contributes to the constant accumulation of knowledge concerning the first appearance of pumice from the so-called Minoan eruption of the Santorini volcano. In addition, it unexpectedly sheds more light on the long-distance trade of Mediterranean volcanic material in the Bronze Age world by disclosing another connection between Lipari and the Eastern Mediterranean.     

Scientific examination of Shang-dynasty bronzes from Hanzhong,Shaanxi Province,China

Shang-dynasty bronzes recovered in the Hanzhong region, Shaanxi province have been receiving considerable research interest since the 1950s due to their strong regional characteristics. This paper presents preliminary analytical results of 16 samples taken from 13 Hanzhong bronze objects, which, for the first time, have revealed their diversity in chemical composition and casting quality. In particular, the finding that some correspondence probably exists between the types of artefact and their materials has significant implications for identifying regional technical characteristics of the Hanzhong bronzes, as well as for exploring the interaction between the metropolitan areas of the Shang Kingdom with the areas beyond its southwestern frontiers.
