Extract

Different analytical methods can be applied to the analysis of the chemical composition of archeological artefacts. The methods presently used to examine archeological artefacts include: emission spectrometry, atomic absorption spectroscopy, x-ray fluorescence spectrometry and neutron activation. The use of these techniques is limited by several factors such as: the size of a sample that can be taken from the object, the availability of the method in the sense of easy access, and the cost of and time spent for the analysis.
