A few months ago I joined the #LastNeanderthals project as a postdoc in #Geoarchaeology based at the University of Siena! Excited to be part of this international effort to uncover the final chapters of the #Neanderthals history! Project Website: erc-lastneanderthals.eu #ERC


Back to the lab! At @SienaUniversity conducting geochemical and sedimentological analyses! #LastNeanderthals #geoarchaeology #FTIR #pH



So here it is! I wrote a little handbook about "Infrared Spectroscopy of Archaeological Sediments" published by @CambUP_Archaeo. The book is in open access and includes the reference spectra of 74 standard materials in both transmission and ATR modes. 👇 cambridge.org/core/elements/…
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!🎄✨ #Geoarchaeology #Archaeology
