At the excavations of Vetricella (Scarlino) and Carlappiano (Piombino) on-site pXRF analysis is used for the chemical characterization of the soil, structures and archaeological finds. In this case the main goal of this technique is his descriptive and predictive power. … Read More
Preliminary on-site chemical survey was performed together with the magnetometric investigation inside and outside an anomaly previously observed from aerial images (fig.1-2).
The main goal of this analysis is to detect the presence of a geochemical anomaly to identify potential archaeometallurgical processing areas. The second purpose is to compare chemical and magnetometric results for evaluating possible correlations..… Read More
