Sciences 3 Applications, possibilities, and limitations of handheld XRF in art conservation and archaeology Over the last decade the technique of X-ray fluorescence has evolved, from dependence on laboratory-based standalone units to field use of portable and lightweight handheld devices. These portable instruments have given researchers in art conservation and archaeology the opportunity to study a broad range of materials with greater accessibility and flexibility than ever before. This volume focuses specifically on the applications, possibilities, and limitations of handheld XRF in art conservation and archaeology. The papers deal with experimental methodologies, protocols, and possibilities of handheld XRF analysis in dealing with the complexity of materials encountered in this research.

Sagalassos, Marc Waelkens and Interdisciplinary Archaeology

Jeroen Poblome (ed.)

Volume in honour of Marc Waelkens, the first project director of the Sagalassos Archaeological Research Project The Sagalassos Archaeological Research Project has made interdisciplinary practices part of its scientific strategy from the very beginning. The project is internationally acknowledged for important achievements in this respect. Aspects of its approach to ancient Sagalassos can be considered groundbreaking for the archaeology of Anatolia and the wider fields of classical and Roman archaeology. At the retirement of its first project director, Professor Marc Waelkens, this volume represents an excellent opportunity to reflect on the wider impact of the Sagalassos Archaeological Research Project.
