Research paper thumbnail of Archaeometric and gemmological analyses of a Roman imperial gold-and-sapphire jewel from Colonna (Rome, Italy)

Our examination and archaeometric analyses enabled us to identify the technique used to make the jewel and to characterize the nature and provenance of the gemstones. The analyses showed that all the stones were natural sapphires. Their inclusions and gemmological features indicate that they came from southern and southeastern Asia, thus gaining insights about trade routes and the luxury-goods market during the Roman imperial period.

IV – end of II millennium B.C.), is described through a review of the published materials and the study of unpublished finds. The analysis allows to understand the technological capabilities and cultural, social and economic aspects of the local communities in the pre-protohistoric period.

La presenza di particolari evidenze strutturali in legno e i numerosi resti carpologici in associazione con contenitori ceramici di grandi e medie dimensioni suggeriscono l’esistenza di un’area di stoccaggio per cereali e legumi.

Il villaggio è posto sulle rive del lago Albano (fig. 1), localizzato in una depressione di origine vulcanica originatasi in seguito a una serie di eruzioni esplosive di tipo idromagmatico durante l'ultima fase eruttiva del Distretto Vulcanico dei Colli Albani (Fase Idromagmatica Finale).

Abstract: In 2011, an extraordinary piece of gold jewelry set with precious stones was found in a woman’s tomb discovered not far from Rome and dating from the third century AD. Our examination and archaeometric analyses
enabled us to identify the technique used to make the jewel and to characterize the nature and provenance of the gemstones. The analyses showed that all the stones were natural sapphires. Their inclusions and gemmological features indicate that they came from southern and south-eastern Asia, thus gaining insights about trade routes and the luxury-goods market during the Roman imperial period.

The pile-dwelling of Villaggio delle Macine, discovered in 1984 across the shore of the volcanic Albano Lake, dated to the Middle Bronze Age, is an exceptional case of pile dwelling for the central Tyrrhenian Italian area (2140-1490 cal BC. 2σ of 7 samples - CEDAD, University of Salento).
It was investigated firstly through underwater analysis and subsequently, thanks to a lake’s water drop which led to the partial emersion of the site, also through surveys and excavations. A great variability and richness of archaeological findings, both ecofacts and artefacts were recovered at the site. Analysis carried out through a multidisciplinary approach led to understanding the settlement’s peculiarity in the surrounding coeval panorama.
It has a summary note on investigations conducted in 2012.
