Ahead of display, a non‐original layer was observed on the surface of a fragment of a wall
painting by Ambrogio Lorenzetti (active 1319, died 1348/9). FTIR analysis suggested …

The scientific analysis of mummified individuals can reveal important details on the way
people lived and died in the past. Palaeoproteomic approaches are theoretically suitable for …

Mass spectrometry-based approaches have been successfully applied for identifying
ancient proteins in bones and other tissues. On the contrary, there are relatively few …

Extraction of protein residues from archaeological matrices, such as pottery clay, lithics, and
