Julia Parra<\/strong>He described the signing of Martin\u00f3n-Torres as \"a definitive boost that brings to the project both the scientific rigour guaranteed by the latest results of his research, and the confidence of the Chinese authorities and the heads of the museums lending the pieces, given the excellent relations that Professor Martin\u00f3n maintains with the archaeologists and researchers in Xi'an, after more than 14 years of joint work at the site itself\". <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nProfessor Martin\u00f3n Torres is involved in the project together with the MARQ team of professionals, including the museum's director, Manuel Olcina<\/strong>the Exhibition Hall, Jorge Soler<\/strong>the<\/span><\/span><\/span> of the Excavations and Collections Unit, Rafael Azuar<\/strong>The exhibition will be held in the exhibition hall, as well as the rest of the members of the Exhibitions Unit and those responsible for the exhibition design, the Director of the Architecture Department of the provincial institution, Rafael P\u00e9rez<\/strong>, y Angel Rocamora<\/strong> by Rocamora Dise\u00f1o y Arquitectura.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nMartin\u00f3n-Torres said he was looking forward to \"working with a team and a museum of this calibre, with an exceptional track record. I am sure that together<\/span><\/span><\/span> we will create an innovative exhibition that will include archaeology and history, but also science. We want to transmit to all the public who visit the MARQ on the occasion of the exhibition the research process and the latest discoveries to explain how what we know today about the Qin emperor and his world has been discovered. Get ready for a different kind of exhibition<\/span><\/span><\/span>.\" <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nJulia Parra confirmed that both the terracotta warriors and the pieces that will make up the exhibition \"constitute the maximum number of these World Heritage cultural relics that the Chinese government authorises in its temporary departures from the country\". Since 2018, these pieces have not visited any European museum, their last departure being at the end of 2017 in the Liverpool World Museum<\/strong>. \"On that occasion, the warriors turned this English city into the cultural capital of Europe, which we hope will happen in Alicante with the help of the MARQ and the Diputaci\u00f3n\", said the vice-president. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nProfessional career<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nMarcos Martin\u00f3n-Torres currently occupies the prestigious Pitt-Rivers Chair in Archaeological Science at the University of Cambridge<\/strong>He joined the University after more than a decade as a professor at the University College London<\/strong>. He is also president of the International Society for Archaeological Sciences<\/strong> and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Archaeological Science<\/em><\/strong>the leading journal in its field. Since 2006, he has been collaborating with British and Chinese researchers on a project that uses scientific advances to reveal the \"secrets\" of Xi'an's terracotta warriors and the First Emperor's mausoleum.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nWith academic qualifications in History, Archaeology and Science, Martin\u00f3n-Torres is recognised worldwide as a leader in the application of scientific techniques in archaeological investigations<\/strong>. He leads and is part of numerous international research teams in Asia, Europe, America and Africa, as well as advising museums and collaborating with various media around the world. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nRecently, the Galician archaeologist jumped to the front pages of the international news after leading a publication in the prestigious journal Nature Scientific Reports<\/em><\/strong>. This work demonstrated that, contrary to what had been believed for four decades, the amazing state of preservation of the bronze weapons of the Emperor's guardian army was not due to an intentional advanced treatment with chromium, but to chance: the natural conditions of the soil of Xi'an, such as its pH, grain size and humidity. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" El historiador y arqueólogo Marcos Martinón-Torres, catedrático de la Universidad de Cambridge, se ha [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"kia_subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34365","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"meta_box":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34365","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34365"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34365\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34365"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34365"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34365"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
