Digital Approaches to Artifact Provenance Studies and Authentication

EasyChair Preprint 14270

Abstract

Digital approaches to artifact provenance studies and authentication have revolutionized the field of cultural heritage preservation and research. These methods leverage advanced technologies such as 3D scanning, digital imaging, machine learning, and blockchain to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of artifact analysis. By integrating digital databases and AI-driven algorithms, researchers can trace the history of artifacts with greater precision, identifying their origins and historical context. Furthermore, digital authentication techniques offer robust solutions for verifying the authenticity of artifacts, combating the proliferation of forgeries and illicit trade. This paper explores the various digital tools and methodologies employed in provenance studies and authentication, highlighting their applications, benefits, and potential challenges. The adoption of these innovative approaches not only improves the integrity of artifact collections but also facilitates broader access and collaboration within the academic and museum
