Medical and industrial imaging methods have come to be recognized
as powerful tools for documentation and data collection in many
nontraditional settings. In Paleoimaging: Field Applications for
Cultural Remains and Artifacts, two of the most preeminent experts
in the field provide an in-depth examination of a range of imaging
techniques and explain how these techniques can be applied to all
aspects of forensic and archaeological analysis. The first part of
the book examines paleoimaging multimodalities, highlighting the
advantages and disadvantages of each imaging technique in different
scenarios. The authors explore photography, conventional
radiography, endoscopy, and various forms of computer-based
imaging. Next, they present methodological and procedural standards
for the various imaging techniques. They also demonstrate how
multimodal imaging can assist nondestructive data collection of
non-biological cultural artefacts. A final section addresses
radiation safety and field safety concerns. Case studies, tables,
and templates of forms for documentation of findings enhance the
text with practical information. Filled with over 380 images, this
book is supplemented with an accompanying downloadable resource in
which the authors draw from their global experience in the
paleoimaging of cultural remains and artefacts, offering a view of
the diverse environments in which field paleoimaging is conducted.
The breadth of the authors' expertise and the rich images contained
in the book and downloadable resources make this resource an
essential reference for those who seek to explore the mysteries of
the past.
