INTERPRETING THE SOCIAL MEANING OF DIFFERENT SHAPES OF HOUSE STRUCTURES BY EXAMINING THE FLOW OF RESOURCES: A CASE STUDY OF SAQACENGALJ AT THE SOUTHERN TIP OF TAIWAN

Social differentiation is characterized by differences in social status and wealth, which are established and maintained by controlling and constraining the labour and flow of resources. This would affect the development of various aspects of a settlement in establishing hierarchical relationships. This study focuses on identifying the variations in the distribution of certain resources, such as imported goods, that help interpret the social meaning, particularly with regard to social status and wealth, of house structures having different shapes in an ethnic settlement in Taiwan. A petrographic study and residue analysis of the pottery along with spatial examination of the material remains were conducted to achieve the goal.     

基于拉曼光谱半定量分析的铁质文物锈层“保护能力指数”评估——以“南海Ⅰ号”沉船出水铁条为例

铁质文物锈蚀产物的稳定性对文物本体的保存与保护具有较大影响,对锈层稳定性的判断是评估铁质文物整体保存状况的关键步骤。“保护能力指数”(PAI)是锈蚀稳定相与不稳定相的含量比值,可用于评估铁质文物的锈蚀程度及腐蚀趋势。近来拉曼光谱越来越多地被用作一种半定量方法,可用于计算混合铁质文物锈蚀产物的各组分含量,因此,可利用该方法计算铁锈的PAI值。本研究利用激光拉曼光谱方法,并结合大幅面X射线荧光成像等多种方法手段,以“南海Ⅰ号”出水一件铁条文物为例,对其锈蚀产物进行半定量分析,并计算出锈蚀PAI值。结果表明,铁条主要包含α-FeOOH、γ-FeOOH、β-FeOOH及Fe₃O₄四种锈蚀产物,不同种类的锈蚀在内外层的分布规律有一定差异。铁条锈蚀PAI值波动范围较大,最低为0.34,最高为20.38,PAI值主要分布于1～10之间。内外锈层的PAI值不同：外层锈蚀PAI值相对较高,说明锈蚀较为稳定;层状剥离面锈蚀PAI值<1,表明锈蚀非常不稳定;内层锈蚀PAI值最低为0.73,说明存在不稳定锈蚀。铁质文物锈蚀产物PAI值为科学评估文物的保存状况提...
