La cantera inca de Rumiqolca, Cusco

Béjar, Ives S. 10 April 2018 (has links)
The Rumiqolca Quarry, CuscoThe finely carved blocks at the Rumiqolca quarry site reveal important data on technology, concerning the selection of the blocks, reduction procedures, polish and transport from the site to their final insertion in the walls of buildings at Cusco, in an unbroken sequence from Pachacutec’s times to the Spanish invasion. / Los bloques líticos finamente trabajados en la cantera de Rumiqolca, en el Cusco, revelan importantes datos acerca de los procedimientos técnicos empleados, desde la clasificación de las rocas, el desbaste, el pulido y el transporte, hasta el asentamiento de las piezas en los muros de los edificios del Cuzco. Esto se enmarca en una secuencia continuada desde el gobierno del Inca Pachacutec hasta la invasión española.

Dimensional Grain Orientation and Preliminary Radiographic Studies of the Sandstones from the Finger Lakes Stone Quarry

de Grijs, Jan Willem 05 1900 (has links)
Missing page 10. / <p> Interbedded turbidite sandstones and shales of the Sonyea Group are exposed in the Finger Lakes Stone Quarry near Ithaca, New York. In 28% of the samples studied the orientation of the grains was not significantly different from a uniform distribution. These distributions included some that were bimodal and some obtained from a bed showing cross-stratification. In 60% of the samples the grain orientations could be considered parallel to the flute marks. As the top of the massive interval was approached the grain orientation became increasingly aligned with the flute marks. A difference of 14° was found between the vector means of the flute and tool marks. </p> <p> Radiographs made of rock slabs cut from the samples used in grain orientation determinations frequently failed to show internal structures even though these were visible in the samples. A radiograph of one sample (02-08) showed cross-bedding, not visible in the sample or slab. The absence of internal structures in a radiograph do not exclude their being present. </p> / Thesis / Bachelor of Science (BSc)

Yesemek Stone Quarry And Sculptural Workshop

Tugcu, Ayse 01 January 2012 (has links) (PDF)
The significance of Yesemek Stone Quarry and Sculptural Workshop in Gaziantep Islahiye province is rooted in its basalt quarry and stone sculptures found at the site. Yesemek was first discovered by Felix Von Luschan in 1890 while he was excavating Zincirli (Sam&rsquo / al). Between 1958 and 1961, the site was excavated by a team under the leadership of Prof. Dr. Bahadir Alkim. The excavations at the site yielded approximately three hundred finished or unfinished lion, sphinx and mountain god sculptures. While the exact function of these sculptures are still not known, the thesis will explore the function of these sculptures by examining the architectural structures where the sculptures could have been used as architectural decoration. Another issue that will be discussed in the thesis is the date of Yesemek workshop and sculptures. To that end, Yesemek sculptures will be stylistically compared to Late Bronze and Iron Age sculptures.

Biota zaplaveného kamenolomu u obce Hradec u Stodu: využití lokality v terénní výuce / Biota of the flooded stone quarry near the village Hradec u Stodu: lokality utilization for education in the field

HOLZÄPFELOVÁ, Hana January 2010 (has links)
This thesis deals with a flooded stone quarry near the village Hradec u Stodu. This quarry is examined from historical, biological and educational point of view. The thesis contains informations about history, ecology and environmental conditions of the examined lokality, results of geological, faunistic and floristic investigation and suggestion on the utilization of this lokality for biology and geology education in the field; work sheets for pupils are completed too. Found organism photogalery is attached in appendices. DVD containing a thorough photodocumentation is also a part of this thesis.

La pierre et les hommes en Bourgogne : archéologie et histoire d'une ressource en oeuvre du Moyen-Âge à l'époque moderne / Pas de titre en anglais

Foucher, Marion 10 December 2014 (has links)
Pour dépasser les limites inhérentes à la déconnexion des disciplines ou celles imposées par les sources, les périodes ou les sites, cette thèse propose une approche pluridisciplinaire et diachronique de la question de l'approvisionnement en pierre des chantiers médiévaux et modernes. Grâce à la confrontation de bâtiments d'origines et de fonctions différentes, ce travail cherche à décortiquer les processus de choix et réseaux d'approvisionnement en pierre, pour envisager le rapport des hommes à une ressource naturelle. / In order to go further limits inherent to subject disjunction, or those imposed by sources, periods or sites, this thesis emphasises a multidisciplinary and diachronic approach of stone supply on medieval and modern building sites. Thanks to the confrontation of buildings with different origins and functions, this work tries to dissect process of choices and stone supply network. It finally considers connection between people and a natural ressource.
