Resumo: | The focus of this work is to shed more light on materials and decorating techniques used on a decorated wooden stick of king Tutankhamun. Moreover, the authors were interested in using a developed methodology to unfold the cylindrical decorations of the stick. The botanical species of the wood and bark samples were identified by observing thin sections under an optical transmission light microscope; the decorating materials layered on the wood surface were analyzed by scientific and analytical techniques including optical microscopy (OM), environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The analyses provided new information concerning the materials and decorating techniques that varied from top to bottom of the same stick. The characterization of this stick represents a first step in determining the materials and decorating techniques used to produce this particular kind of sticks during king’s Tutankhamun period.

Received: 2017-5-27 Revised: 2017-12-1 Accepted: 2018-1-25 Online: 2018-3-3 Publication: 2019-1-10Este trabalho teve como objectivo aprofundar o conhecimento sobre materiais e técnicas decorativas empregues num bastão de madeira decorado do rei Tutankhamon. Além disso, os autores estiveram interessados em usar uma metodologia desenvolvida para visualizar as decorações cilíndricas do bastão. As espécies botânicas de amostras da madeira e da casca foram identificadas pela observação de lâminas delgadas num microscópio óptico de luz transmitida; os materiais de decoração dispostos em camadas sobre a superfície de madeira foram analisados por técnicas analíticas e científicas incluindo microscopia óptica (OM), microscopia electrónica de varrimento ambiental (ESEM), espectroscopia de fluorescência de raios X (XRF), difracção de raios X (XRD) e espectroscopia de infravermelho com transformada de Fourier (FTIR). As análises forneceram novas informações sobre os materiais e técnicas de decoração que variaram ao longo do bastão. Este estudo é o primeiro passo na determinação dos materiais e técnicas de decoração usados para produzir este particular tipo de bastão durante o período do rei Tutankhamon.
