FTIR analyses of samples of Tossal de la Vila (La Serra d’en Galceran, Castellón) and Masies de Sant Miquel (Banyeres del Penedès, Tarragona, Spain) combustion structures

Collection of 29 graphs of FTIR analyses of samples from combustion structures of Tossal de la Vila (La Serra d’en Galceran, Castellón) and Masies de Sant Miquel (Banyeres del Penedès, Tarragona, Spain).

FTIR Analyses have been carried out at the Archaeometry Laboratory of the Faculty of Geography and History, University of Barcelona. Specifically, for the preparation of the samples, a 2-tonne press, model SC-03940 Mini-Pellet Press from Teknokroma has been used, and to apply this technique, an iS5 spectrometer from Thermo Fisher Scientific.

The software used for the interpretation of the spectra was OMNIC and the mineral database used is available at the Kimmel Centre for Archaeological Science (Weizmann Institute of Sciences).
