OSL

There are a number of ways to date archaeological material, but OSL (Optically Stimulated Luminescence) is extremely useful because it allows for the dating of sedimentation when organic materials are not present at a site.

 

GPR

While the general public often think of archaeology as physical excavation and digging up artefacts, archaeologists at Everick also use a variety of non-invasive survey methods and technologies to streamline the archaeological process & GPR is an excellent example of this.

 

Stone Artefacts Analysis

Stone artefacts analysis is a method of cataloguing attributes about artefacts to reveal information about the people who made and used them. It plays a crucial role in enhancing our knowledge of the past through archaeological research and cultural heritage management.

 

Zooarchaeology

People have built close ties with animals for a variety of reasons throughout history. Whether they be food, transport, labour or companions, the traces of these animals left behind - and the zooarchaeologists who study them - have a big story to tell in our understanding of the human past.
