Abstrakt: This paper will study the molecular structure of human bone fragments in the field of conservation science. The fragments were excavated from the sites of Tell al-Husn and Al Yasileh in Jordan. The applying of Raman spectroscopy and Fourier transformation infrared for comparison and Analysis of bone as a new method for hard tissue primary bone dating in the field of archaeometry. A collection of bone fragments were prepared for measurements using this new technique in dating from different ancient sites in Jordan. It is shown that the bone objects are dated back around to 2,000 years (Roman period), determined by a typological study of pottery by the excavators of these sites. This preliminary dating by vibrational spectroscopy as a preliminary method was used to classify the bone fragments if they are archaeological artifacts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
