Abstract

The use of high-resolution silicone moulds for documenting bone surface modifications, such as cut marks, is common. However, it has not been evaluated whether moulding can affect the originals. In this work, the modification level derived from several moulding–demoulding processes on an experimental sample of cut marks has been characterised using geometric Morphometrics. It has been shown that moulds influence the morphology of cut marks, reducing their variability, and making the sample more homogeneous. These modifications do not affect the identification of cut marks, but if not considered, may have an effect on more specialised studies.

高分辨率硅胶模具对切割痕迹形态的累积效应

使用高分辨率硅胶模具来记录骨骼表面变化（如切割痕迹）的做法很常见。然而，尚未对模塑是否会影响原物进行评估。在这项工作中，使用几何形态计量学对切割痕迹实验样本上的几个模塑-脱模过程所产生的修改水平进行了描述。结果表明，模具影响了切割痕迹的形态，降低了其可变性，使样本更加均匀。这些变化不会影响切痕的识别，但如果不加以考虑，可能会对更专业的研究产生影响。

期刊介绍： Archaeometry is an international research journal covering the application of the physical and biological sciences to archaeology, anthropology and art history. Topics covered include dating methods, artifact studies, mathematical methods, remote sensing techniques, conservation science, environmental reconstruction, biological anthropology and archaeological theory. Papers are expected to have a clear archaeological, anthropological or art historical context, be of the highest scientific standards, and to present data of international relevance. The journal is published on behalf of the Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art, Oxford University, in association with Gesellschaft für Naturwissenschaftliche Archäologie, ARCHAEOMETRIE, the Society for Archaeological Sciences (SAS), and Associazione Italian di Archeometria.
