PHYTOLITH, STARCH, PROTEIN RESIDUE (CIEP), ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR), AND XRD ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM THE METZ SITE (33ER557) AND THE HECKLEMAN SITE (33ER14), OHIO

Summary
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 information on the composition of this coating material. A second sample, comprising chunks of pigment recovered from a vessel at the Heckleman site (33ER14), was submitted for XRD analysis to better understand the composition of the pigment material.
