  • A Multi‐Analytical Approach for the Compositional Characterization and Chronological Discrimination of Benin (Nigeria) Metal Sculptures

    Open AccessI Torraba, Diego A Ahumada-Forigua et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2026Referencias: 29

    This study presents a multi‐analytical archaeometric approach for the compositional characterization and chronological discrimination of Benin metal sculptures in relation to the 1897 Punitive Expedition. The methodology integrates elemental composition (XRF and ICP), stable lead isotope ratios (MC‐ICP‐MS) for alloy system characterization, and residual 210 Pb activity measurements (LSC) in a sequential three‐stage protocol. Applied to 11 sculptu…

  • New strategies for portable XRF spectrum processing applied to historical glasses

    Open AccessDiego A Ahumada-Forigua, Inés L Acevedo et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2025

    A new methodology enhances the accuracy of p-XRF spectral analysis. • Improved methods reduce noise and uncertainty in elemental identification. • Practical detection limits were established for challenging low-intensity signals. • Deconvolution and spectral alignment ensure robust signal processing. • Accessible tools enable reproducible results for historical artifact studies. Portable X-ray fluorescence (p-XRF) is a powerful, non-destructive t…
