🔴 **Late Bronze Age Metal Exploitation and Trade: Sardinia and Cyprus**

“_An array of new provenance studies demonstrates the complexity of the Bronze Age metal trade and, taking a maritime perspective, provides the opportunity to reveal how strategically positioned actors such as Nuragic Sardinia managed to dominate sea-borne routes, and gained a prominent and independent international position._”

Sabatini, S. and Lo Schiavo, F. (2020) ‘Late Bronze Age Metal Exploitation and Trade: Sardinia and Cyprus’, Materials and Manufacturing Processes, 35(13), pp. 1501–1518. doi: doi.org/10.1080/10426914.2020..

London Museum receives more than 14,000 Roman artifacts and £20M from Bloomberg The London Museum has received a gift from Bloomberg Philanthropies, comprising more than 14,000 Roman artifacts discovered during the construction of Bloomberg’s European headquarters, along with a £20 million donation to support the museum’s relocation to Smithfield. This is the largest private contribution ever made to the museum and the biggest archaeological archive it has ever received. Between 2012 and 2014, the Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) unearthed a large collection of Roman artifacts during the Bloomberg site excavation. The site yielded Britain’s oldest and most substantial collection of Roman writing tablets. They include a reference to London, the first written mention of the city. The dating of the excavation site is significant, as it revealed a 3rd-century CE temple dedicated to the god Mithras...

Stone Age European hunter-gatherers reached North Africa by boat, ancient DNA reveals New genetic studies offer the very first clear evidence that European hunter-gatherers crossed the Mediterranean and came into contact with North African populations as early as 8,500 years ago. The discoveries challenge long-held beliefs about how agriculture and cultural influences reached the region while attesting to the resilience of local populations in the eastern Maghreb. In new research published in the journal Nature, co-led by Ron Pinhasi of the University of Vienna, David Reich and Mark Lipson of Harvard Medical School, Alfredo Coppa of Sapienza University of Rome, and Giulio Lucarini of the National Research Council of Italy, researchers performed a genome-wide analysis of nine individuals from Algeria and Tunisia from the Later Stone Age until the Neolithic. The study brings to light how early human populations in North Africa interacted with their European counterparts and transitioned from hunting and gathering to food production...

A fresco was discovered in 2018 and is just being reported about now. The wall art depicts Queen Leda, the Greek mythical Queen of Sparta and a swan. the image was a popular theme for Romans. But this image is particularly fine as it appears the Leda is looking directly at any person who entered the room. It is likely that the wealthy owner of the home was showing off his cultural knowledge.

An amateur archaeologist managed to persuade professional archaeologists to examine a large standing stone near Matlock in the county of Derbyshire. What they discovered was that his theory of the stone being a part of a larger circle was correct. The site of the stone is more than 3700 years old. The stone had been deliberately placed over a natural spring.

Je présenterai les résultats des neuf années de fouille programmée au Frankenbourg et des études qui nous rapprochent d'une publication du site, le mercredi 2 avril à 17h00 au collège doctoral européen à Strasbourg.

Au menu, rempart gaulois et sa porte, fortification romaine, blocs à queue d'aronde, Mont-Sainte-Odile ?, céramique et monnaies...

Affiche de la conférence. Le texte indique le titre (fortifications protohistoriques et romaines au Frankenbourg), l'heure (le 2 avril à 17h) et le lieu (collège doctoral européen) de l'évènement. L'image en arrière plan montre une tranchée ouverte dans la forêt, successivement depuis l'avant, un mur en pierres sèches, une couche de blocs, trois fouilleurs en train de nettoyer le fond du sondage.
