Koleini, Farahnaz; Prinsloo, Linda Charlotta; Schoeman, M.H. Alex; Pikirayi, Innocent; Chirikure, Shadreck (Maney Publishing, 2013)

A study of the composition and phase distribution of the corrosion layers on three ferrous objects, excavated at K2 (Bambandyanalo), an archaeological site in South Africa, was conducted. The objective of the study was ...
The chronology of Insiza cluster Khami-phase sites in south-western Zimbabwe : compositional insights from pXRF and Raman analysis of excavated exotic glass finds

Koleini, Farahnaz; Machiridza, L.H.; Pikirayi, Innocent; Colomban, P. (Wiley, 2019-08)

Fourteen glass beads and one glass fragment from Khami‐period (ad 1400–1830) sites of Danamombe, Naletale, Gomoremhiko, Nharire and Zinjanja, in Zimbabwe, were analysed by pXRF and Raman spectroscopy with the intention of ...
Efficiency of neutron tomography in visualizing the internal structure of metal artefacts from Mapungubwe museum collection with the aim of conservation

Koleini, Farahnaz; De Beer, Frikkie; Schoeman, M.H. Alex; Pikirayi, Innocent; Chirikure, Shadreck; Nothnagel, Gawie; Radebe, Jacob Mabuti (Elsevier, 2012)

To aid conservation management of metal artefacts improved knowledge of the internal structure and degree of corrosion therein is highly desired. In this study, neutron- and X-ray tomography were chosen as two complementary ...

In the late 19th century, ancient tombs were discovered near the village of Vohemar at the northeastern point of Madagascar, and subsequent excavations during the French period (1896–1945) revealed the presence of a major ...
Post-15th century European glass beads in southern Africa : composition and classification using pXRF and Raman spectroscopy

Koleini, Farahnaz; Colomban, Philippe; Pikirayi, Innocent (Elsevier, 2020-02)

A hundred and twenty-seven glass beads found at the archaeological sites in southern Africa were analysed using pXRF and Raman spectroscopy. The beads are identified as European productions on the basis of their ...
