The Ain Ghazal Statues: Jordan's Unique and Graceful Neolithic Figures


It is thanks to the work of these archaeologists that we have some idea of the development of Ain Ghazal over the millennia. Based on the archaeological evidence, Ain Ghazal was first occupied around 7250 BC, during a period known as the Pre-Pottery Neolithic . At that time, the settlement consisted of only several hundred inhabitants, who lived in individual houses. These houses were made of stone covered with mud and lime plaster and painted with a red pigment.
A change in the settlement occurred around the beginning of the 7th millennium BC. At that time, the population of Ain Ghazal rose rapidly from an influx of new inhabitants. Consequently, the population of the settlement almost doubled in size to 1,600 people. ....

To understand how something works, it helps to see it up close. A team of researchers took this approach when studying the fabric masks that people wear to slow the spread of COVID-19.
Those masks work by blocking some of the virus-filled droplets and smaller particles, called aerosols, that an infected person exhales, and they also offer some protection to the wearer by filtering incoming air.
The researchers wanted to know how well different fabrics filter out those particles and what makes some fabrics better filters than others.
As part of this research, one team member, Edward Vicenzi, used a scanning electron microscope to examine the fabrics up close. Vicenzi works at the Smithsonian’s Museum Conservation Institute, where he studies the history and origin of objects in the museums’ collection. He is also a visiting researcher at NIST. His images gave the scienti ....
