Carneiro, André; Ditta, Asim; Galacho, Cristina; Moita, PatríciaThe archaeological site of villa Horta da Torre in Portugal reveals distinctive architectural features within the context of Roman villae in Hispania. Notably, the triclinium was designed with an artificial cascade originating from a double apse wall, and the walls were adorned with mosaic tessellae panels and marble skirting. During the Roman era, the surrounding area belonged to the former province of Lusitan...

A multi-analytical approach applied to pottery from Oman as a key to understand...
Zampierini, Daniele; Moita, Patrícia; Lischi, Silvia; Marile van, Aerde; Barrulas, Pedro; Mirão, JoséThe populations in Sumhuram (third/second century bce to fifth century ce) and Hamr al-Sharqiya 1 (HAS1) (first millennium bce to first/second century ce) were involved in one of the most important examples of large-scale trade systems in antiquity: the maritime network connecting the coasts of the Indian Ocean. This research focuses on a total of 35 southwestern Arabian and Indian pottery sherds from both the ...
INSPEÇÃO VISUAL A CINCO ZONAS DAS MURALHAS DE ALCÁCER DO SAL
Almeida, Maria; Pinheiro-Alves, Mª Teresa; Galacho, Cristina; Moita, Patrícia; Carretero-Ayuso, Manuel J.A localização de Alcácer do Sal, nas margens do rio Sado, num território abundante em recursos naturais, permitiu que a sua ocupação fosse bastante desejada, o que levou ao longo do tempo, à fixação de diversos povos. A imponente fortificação militar, edificada no ponto mais alto da povoação, os vestígios materiais e o topónimo que dá nome à cidade, são marcas que, sem dúvida, demarcam o contributo e ocupação d...
Analytical characterization of historical mortars from the Roman villa of Friel...
Tanjil, Tanjil; Silva, Ana R.; José C., Quaresma; Moita, Patrícia; Galacho, CristinaThe analytical characterization of mortar samples from the Roman archaeological site of Frielas, located in Lisbon, Portugal; was carried out by means of X-diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry (TGA-DTG), optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), acid attack and granulometric analysis. A total of eighteen mortar samples were collected from the diffe...
Ediacaran and early-palaeozoic bimodal volcanism in the Ossa-Morena Zone, SW Ib...
Cachapuz, P.; Chichorro, Martim Afonso; Bento dos Santos, Telmo; Carvalho, D.; Linnemann, Ulf; Zieger-Hofmann, M.; Zieger, J.; Dantas, E.; Santos, R. V.ABSTRACT: This study focuses on bimodal meta-volcanic rocks present in the Iberian Massif, in the Evora-Aracena Metamorphic Belt of the Ossa-Morena Zone (OMZ), near the boundary with the South Portuguese Zone. New petrological, geochemical (whole-rock and Sr-Nd isotopes) and LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon geochronology data are presented to track the magmatic evolution of both felsic and mafic rocks and their respective...

Takahashi, Mizuki; Galacho, Cristina; Carneiro, André; Moita, PatríciaThe Roman villa Horta da Torre, built around 3 th 4 th century A.D., is located at Cabeço de Vide (Fronteira, Portugal). To address the construction(s) phase(s), production technolo gy and provenance of materials, a total of 18 samples of mortar walls were collected from Horta da Torre,including renders and fillers. A multi analytical approach to study textural, and mineralogical features of the selected mortar...
Walls of the Castle of Alcácer do Sal – Contribution to the Study of Mortars in...
Almeida, M; Pinheiro-Alves, T; Moita, Patrícia; Galacho, CristinaThe strategic location of Alcácer do Sal, on the banks of the Sado River and in a region rich in natural resources, explains the various occupations of this territory throughout history. However, it was the influence of the Muslim occupation (715–1217) that stood out the most, still visible today through archaeological remains, the town’s name, and, in this case study, the castle walls (11th–12th centuries), wh...
Microwear structures and surface analysis on isolated theropod teeth from the U...
Batista, Filipa; Castro, Lígia; Moita, Patrícia; Maggia, Bruno; Ortega, Francisco; Malafaia, ElisabeteThe analysis of wear surfaces on teeth has been applied to infer diet, feeding mechanisms, climatic conditions, and habitat in various groups of extinct organisms. Recently, analyses of microwear surfaces have been used to study dinosaur feeding strategies in theropods, demonstrating that different groups may have resorted to similar feeding mechanisms. Here, we present the characterization of wear surfaces and...
Contact metamorphism and dolomitization overprint on Cambrian carbonates from t...
Roseiro, José; Moreira, Noel; Andrade, Laura; Nogueira, Pedro; de Oliveira, Daniel Pipa Soares; Eguiluz, Luis; Mirao, Jose; Moita, PatríciaABSTRACT: he Cambrian Series 2 Carbonate Formation from the Alter do Chão Elvas-Cumbres Mayores unit (Ossa-Morena Zone, SW Iberian Massif) is composed of regionally metamorphosed marbles and marlstones that underwent chlorite zone metamorphism and preserve the primaeval limestone 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7083–0.7088). These are consistent with the established Lower Cambrian seawater curve, and therefore used for age...
