On March 12, 2026, a meeting with specialists from the Institute of Nuclear Physics was held at the Faculty of History of 91传媒 Kazakh National University within the framework of the course “Interdisciplinary Research in Archaeology.”
Purpose:
The main purpose of the meeting was to demonstrate the significance of interdisciplinary methods in archaeology, to familiarize students with modern research in the field of nuclear physics, and to reveal the possibilities of applying physical methods in the analysis of archaeological materials.
Relevance:
Modern archaeology goes beyond traditional methods and 邪泻褌懈胁薪芯 uses the achievements of natural sciences. Methods of nuclear physics (radiocarbon analysis, isotopic studies, determination of material composition) allow for precise dating of archaeological sites, studying the origin of artifacts, and refining historical data. These approaches open new horizons for the study of the archaeological heritage of Kazakhstan.
Connection with archaeology: Nuclear physics provides archaeology with precise scientific data:
Radiocarbon method – determination of the age of archaeological finds.
Isotopic analysis – study of dietary patterns and lifestyle of ancient people.
Determination of the chemical composition of materials – revealing the technological features of artifacts.
Conclusion:
The meeting allowed students to realize the importance of interdisciplinary research in archaeology and to see new opportunities for collaboration between sciences. The combination of archaeology and nuclear physics opens the way for a deeper and more accurate study of historical data and contributes to a new understanding of national history.
