We are pleased to share a new publication from the ERC-funded project DiverseNile in Scientific Reports. The article, “Reconstructing charcoal formation temperatures in archaeology and volcanology using an automated 532 nm Raman spectroscopy approach”, presents a new calibration method and the open-access tool “CHARM” for reconstructing charcoal formation temperatures using Raman spectroscopy. The study highlights the potential of non-destructive analyses for archaeological materials and contributes important methodological advances for both archaeology and volcanology.

I’m so proud of Fabian Dellefant, the person behind all of this and the corresponding author! His painstaking work is now published in one of the most prestigious journals. A major achievement indeed.

The publication is available here:

Just a heads-up: Early bird registration for the 16th International Conference for Nubian Studies is coming up fast (31st May)! The event is going to be held in Munich from 7th to 12th September 2026, and the theme is ‚Lived experiences, diverse traditions and human and non-human agents throughout the ages‘. A preliminary programme is already available and will be updated soon. Don’t miss out, sign up today!

Because of the current situation in Sudan, it will be a hybrid conference, so you can join either in person or remotely. Obviously, Egyptian and Sudanese colleagues don’t have to pay a fee, but everyone has to register.

We’re really looking forward to hosting this conference in Munich!
