Sherds from two ceramic vessels with visible residue from the Metz site (33ER557) were submitted for phytolith, starch, organic residue (FTIR), and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Two celts were submitted for phytolith, starch, protein residue (CIEP), and FTIR analysis. Phytolith, starch, protein residue, and organic residue analyses were undertaken to better understand what foods may have been prepared or processed using these items. XRD analysis of the exterior slip coating provides...
XRD, XRF, AND RADIOCARBON DATE ANALYSES OF SAMPLES FROM THE METZ SITE 33ER557, ERIE COUNTY, OHIO (2021)
The Metz site, 33ER557, is located in Erie County, Ohio. Previous work by PaleoResearch Institute examined an Esch Plain variety Red Slip vessel, a collection of sherds from another ceramic vessel, a grooved and an ungrooved celt, a slate disc, and a ceramic pipe (Yost et al 2013). Further work at the Metz site revealed bog iron. Several samples of bog iron were submitted for elemental analysis using XRF, one for XRD analysis, and recovery of charcoal from two of the bog iron samples for AMS...
