ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) AND VISUAL/MICROSCOPIC ANALYSES OF HISTORIC PERIOD SAMPLES FROM SOUTHERN ARIZONA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Melissa K. Logan

Year: 2009

Summary

A ceramic sherd and sediment sample associated with the historic period from southern

Arizona were submitted for organic residue and visual/microscopic analyses, respectively. The

ceramic sherd was tested for organic residues using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy

(FTIR). Organic residue analysis will be used to determine the materials that have been

contained in the vessel represented by the ceramic sherd. Visual and microscopic analysis will

be used to identify white linear objects found throughout the sediment sample.
