Abstract

The ultrastructure of bovine femoral bone artificially heated at low temperatures (< 300 °C) is investigated by means of synchrotron quantitative scanning-SAXS imaging. Significant changes in the distribution of particle size are observed upon heating. On average, an exponential particle growth is measured with increasing temperature independently of the tissue histology. Additionally, the heating process induces a broader dispersion in the particle size which, in turn, seems to be dependent on the bone microstructure. Those parameters could therefore be used as markers in the characterization of archaeological bone presenting traces of heating.
