- Abstract:
- This work focuses on the importance of Archaeometry aiming at defining some archaeological uncertainties concerning the use of distinctive materials. More precisely, the goal of this study is the interpretation of spectroscopic and thermogravimetric data, as well as water absorption measurements, for the characterization of non-vascular ceramic fragments found in two different Etruscan settlements dated back to 6th-4th century BC and situated in the Po Delta region (San Basilio di Ariano nel Polesine and Adria – Rovigo, Italy). A multi-analytical approach was applied in order to clarify the role of these ceramic findings, which were supposed to be building materials used to cover house walls, as internal or external plasters.
