Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 28Lime Mortar Technology in Ancient Eastern Roman Provinces(Elsevier, 2021) Uğurlu Sağın, Elif; Duran, Hasan Engin; Böke, HasanNatural pozzolanic aggregates were discovered during the Roman era and have been widely used in hydraulic mortar production. Despite the claims of ancient treatises, the properties of pozzolans and the technology of hydraulic lime mortars were well known and applied in the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire. In this study, the characteristics of lime mortar at the ancient sites of Aigai and Nysa located in Western Anatolia were investigated to elicit the technology applied. The raw material compositions of the mortars, the hydraulic properties of the binders, and the mineralogical and chemical compositions of the natural pozzolans used were determined via X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The major and trace element compositions of the natural pozzolans were evaluated via multivariate statistical analysis to determine whether the same local raw material resources were used in their manufacture. The analytical results indicated that the Roman mortars were hydraulic, stiff, and durable materials due to the use of natural pozzolanic aggregates mostly comprising dacite. Although the aggregates had similar mineralogical compositions, multivariate statistical analysis revealed that their chemical compositions were clearly distinguishable, indicating the use of different sources of raw materials. Thus, it was inferred that similar pozzolan resources were known and deliberately used to produce hydraulic mortars in the eastern ancient Roman provinces.Article Citation - WoS: 39Citation - Scopus: 39Authenticity of Wines Made With Economically Important Grape Varieties Grown in Anatolia by Their Phenolic Profiles(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Şen, İlknur; Tokatlı, FigenThe aim of this study was to characterize and compare the wines of main native and nonnative grape varieties grown in Turkey. The polyphenol compositions of red and white monovarietal wines of 11 grape varieties have been evaluated for four vintages (2006-2009). Discrimination of wines with respect to variety and vintage was studied by partial least square-discriminant analysis. Boǧazkere red wines were the highest and Kalecik Karasi{dotless} red wines were the lowest in total phenol content. Syrah wines were the highest in anthocyanin compounds. (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin contents of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah wines were the highest, whereas those compounds were detected in lower amounts in native wines. For the case of white wines, the discrimination among Emir, Muscat and Sultaniye wines was based on hydroxycinnamic acids, flavan-3-ols and total phenol content. The vintage based discrimination of red wines was affected at most from malvidin compounds. White wines could also be discriminated according to their vintage based on the presence of quercetin-3- O-galactoside, vanillic acid and o-coumaric acid. The phenolic descriptors of wines can be used in the authentication of wines with respect to variety and harvest year. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
