| Popis: |
Four sarcophagi in Ostia and one in Siracusa are made of marble that appears macroscopically to be from the island of Thasos. Samples were analyzed with stable isotope ratios of carbon and oxygen. In addition, the Siracusa sarcophagus was analyzed with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR), and the maximum grain size (MGS) and color were measured. The analyses confirm that the sarcophagi were made of marble from Aliki on Thasos. The Ostian pieces date from the third century, and the Early Byzantine example in Siracusa can be dated to between 590-620 CE. |
