Complementary Analytical Services
Geochemical Analysis
Portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and soil chemistry profiling reveal anthropogenic signatures including phosphate enrichment, heavy metal accumulation, and organic matter distribution patterns that delineate past activity areas.
Paleobotanical Analysis
Macrobotanical remains, pollen, phytoliths, and charcoal analysis reconstruct past vegetation, agricultural practices, fuel use, and paleoclimatic conditions. These proxies provide essential environmental context for understanding human adaptations and land management strategies.
Remote Sensing Integration
Aerial photography, LiDAR, multispectral imagery, and geophysical prospection data are integrated with ground-based observations to map subsurface features, identify anthropogenic landscape modifications, and guide targeted excavation strategies.
Isotopic Analysis
Stable isotope analysis of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and strontium from soil carbonates, organic matter, and archaeological materials provides insights into paleoclimate, paleo vegetation, hydrological cycles, and human mobility patterns.
