Methodeontwikkeling, gebaseerd op Multi-collector ICP massa spectrometrie, voor de bepaling van de isotopische samenstelling van Boor in Romeins glas voor de herkomstbepaling van de flux

Within this subproject of the European Research Council Starting Grant “Archaeometry andArchaeology of Ancient Glass Production as a Source for Ancient Technology andTrade of Raw Materials“, a geochemical characterisation in terms of B isotopiccomposition of Hellenistic-Roman glass and its possible flux mineral resourcesis made. For this purpose, the chemical isolation procedure of B from soda-silica-lime glassneeds to be developed, and the pitfalls of the B isotopic analysis(fractionation, contamination ) need to be countered. Within the project, information on the possible flux resources used for ancient glassproduction is brought together, and Hellenistic-Roman glass is studied andprovenanced from the point of view of B isotopes to identify possible multiplesources of fluxes.status: publishe
