Mexico Ceramics and Clay: Compositional and Descriptive Data

Creator(s): Matthew Boulanger; Lawrence Berkeley National Labratory

Year: 2014

Summary

This spreadsheet contains elemental abundances, descriptions, and archaeological contexts for 88 ceramic and clay specimens from Mexico analyzed by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). Elemental abundances were determined using neutron activation analysis, and all other values are in parts per million (ppm). Zero (0) values indicate missing values. Data are transcribed directly from computer printouts in the LBNL archives and spot checked for accuracy. All descriptive and contextual data are derived from LBNL paper records. Coordinates of archaeological sites have been added when possible.
