Title: | Effects of elevated levels of lead in ceramics on provenancing studies using non-destructive PXRF: a case study in Byzantine Cypriot glazed ceramics | Contributor(s): | Forster, Nicola (author); Grave, Peter (author) | Publication Date: | 2013 | DOI: | 10.1002/xrs.2507 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/13727 | Abstract: | Glazed ceramics are ubiquitous in the medieval archaeological record in the Mediterranean. The effects of lead volatilisation during firing of glazed ceramics on non-destructive PXRF (portable X-ray fluorescence) are evaluated using 25 Byzantine Cypriot glazed ceramics. Significant spectral interferences reduce the number of discriminating elements for multivariate statistical analysis, limiting the capacity of non-destructive PXRF to resolve compositional differences. Nonetheless, non-destructive PXRF of glazed wares has the potential to expand provenancing studies where significantly different geology is present or for appropriate archaeological questions. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Grant Details: | ARC/DP0558992 | Source of Publication: | X-Ray Spectrometry, 42(6), p. 480-486 | Publisher: | John Wiley & Sons Ltd | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 1097-4539 0049-8246 |
