Mumba Rockshelter is located in Mang'ola Basin, at ca. 1046 m asl, about 2.3 km from the current shore of Lake Eyasi (which is dry most of the year). It is found in a series of inselbergs (containing several other shelters) called the Laghang-Ishimijega hills, running parallel to the lake. The shelter contains rock paintings documented by L. Kohl-Larsen (1943). It was excavated in 1934-36 and a very large "test" excavation was led by M. Kohl-Larsen in 1938 (L. Kohl-Larsen 1943, Müller-Beck...

This project pertains to the compositional analysis of ceramic materials from Cyprus. These data were generated by neutron activation analysis (NAA) at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) between the late 1960s and early 1990s. Data from the LBNL were transferred to the Archaeometry Laboratory at the University of Missouri, where they were digitized for distribution through tDAR.
