Findings in the Area of Archaeology Reported from University of Tarapaca [Archaeometric Approach On Red Ocher of the Cabuza Phase (900-1200 Ad) From the Azapa Valley, Northern Chile]

2024 APR 29 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at NewsRx Science Daily -- Investigators publish new report on Science - Archaeology. According

Article Description

The analysis on three red pigments of the Cabuza cultural phase (900–1200 AD), Azapa Valley, northern Chile are reported. The results of SEM-EDX and vibrational spectroscopy show hematite, clays, and organic matter, beside barium and arsenic. The discussion on the relationship between these raw materials and the technological practices, suggest a use of the local environment and that some raw materials could be related with highland sphere of interaction. All hypotheses are exploratory but show the potential of this type of analysis and that chemical indicators can shed light between cultural practices, artifacts, and the environment.
