SESSION 6 - Characterising lithic sources
The Irish lithic landscape project: chert provenancing research n prehistoric Ireland

The present analysis is using non-destructive energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) as a first-order technique to determine chert whole-rock geochemistry, which will be followed by petrographic analysis on a sub-sample of the collection. A significant part of this project is the creation of a lithoteque reference collection of Irish cherts; this will be physically housed at the UCD School of Archaeology, Ireland and accompanied by a web-based, spatial database, open for use by other researchers.
