Looking Beyond the Surface: Use of High Resolution X-Ray Computed Tomography on Archaeobotanical Remains
High Resolution X-Ray Computed Tomography (HRXCT) offers a powerful
3-dimensional, non-destructive and non-invasive diagnostic tool for imaging the
external and internal structures of a range of specimens of interest including
archaeobotanical remains. HRXCT offers new possibilities in terms of the
research questions which may be asked of fragile and valuable archaeological
and specifically archaeobotanical material. This technology, although currently
somewhat limited in terms of time and access to beamtimes at National
Synchrotrons, requires simple, non-destructive preparation of samples and
produces exciting results. Based upon two rounds of successful work we believe
that this new methodology has wider implications and utility for advancing the
field of imaging, and investigating aspects of plant domestication such as
internal anatomical changes.
