Denmark has an extraordinarily large and well-preserved collection of archaeological skin garments found in peat bogs, dated to approximately 920 BC - AD 775. These objects provide not only the possibility to study prehistoric skin costume and technologies, but also to investigate the animal species...

This project looks at archaeological ceramics from Tell Khaiber (Sealand Dynasty, mid-second millenium BCE, Southern Iraq) and analyses the proteins absorbed in them determining resource use.

Traditional protocols for proteomics analysis usually start by extracting or solubilizing the proteins from their substrates. This step can be challenging for archaeological proteins, when they are heavily contaminated or decayed. The remains of animal fur/leather objects from the singer’s burial of...

In this project we have applied palaeoproteomics to study archaeological shell beads dating back to the beginning of the 7th mill. cal BCE and recovered from a prehistoric site in Jordan (Ba'ja). These beads were made of mollusc shells and were of unknown origin, but suspected to be made of larger b...

Archaeological materials are a finite resource, and efforts should be made to minimize destructive analyses. This can be achieved by using protocols combining extraction of several lines of evidence, which decreases the material needed for analyses while maximizing the information yield. Archaeologi...

Despite the growing body of evidence demonstrating that proteins can survive for thousands to even millions of years in selected contexts, there are relatively few examples of the successful recovery and identification of archaeological protein residues from ceramic artifacts. Claims of positive res...

The origins, prevalence and nature of dairying have been long debated by archaeologists. Within the last decade, new advances in high-resolution mass spectrometry have allowed for the direct detection of milk proteins from archaeological remains, including ceramics, dental calculus, and preserved da...

Proteomics is continually being applied to a wider range of applications, now including the analysis of archaeological samples and anatomical specimens, in particular, collagen-containing tissues such as bones and teeth. Here we present the application of a chemi-cal digestion-based proteomics sampl...

Identifying the taxonomy of bone fragments in resin-embedded archaeological sediment blocks can provide information about our past at a microstratigraphic resolution. Here, we first explore the effects of resin impregnation on modern bones, and find minimal effects on taxonomic identifications, but ...

The growth of proteomics-based methods in archaeology prompted an investigation of the survival of non-collagenous proteins, specifically immunoglobulin G (IgG), in archaeological human bone and dentine. Over a decade ago reports were published on extracted, immunoreactive archaeological IgG, and th...
