PROTEIN AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF LITHIC FLAKES FROM SITE EGOL-1, SASKATCHEWAN, CANADA
Author(s): Chad Yost; Melissa K. Logan
Year: 2012
Summary
Two lithic flakes from site EgOl-1 in Saskatchewan, Canada were submitted for protein and organic residue analysis. These flakes exhibited residue on their surface. One flake was selected for each analysis. The sample for organic residue analysis was tested using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Protein and organic residue analysis are used to identify trace residues of plant and animal material that may be present on the surfaces of these artifacts.
