Archaeological deposits are soil layers\u00a0showing traces of human activity. Dehydration, temperature fluctuations and exposure to oxygen and microorganisms are among the greatest threats to the preservation of these layers as future sources of knowledge.<\/p>\n

Recording the environment and changes in it over time tells us how the preservation conditions are changing in the remaining archaeological deposits. If dramatic changes are observed, remedial measures must be implemented.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Monitoring samples.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Examples of potential measures include covering with clay, adding water or changing the chemical composition by adding minerals. Ultimately, assessing the monitoring results could result in one choosing to preserve the cultural-historical information in the\u00a0deposits by conducting archaeological excavations.<\/p>\n

NIKU’s archaeologists have worked on\u00a0archaeological deposit monitoring for some time. The goal has been to\u00a0develop tools and methods that ensure that monitoring also results in the archaeological\u00a0deposits\u00a0being preserved for the future.<\/p>\n
