COMPARATIVE STUDY OF VARIOUS SAMPLES OF ETRUSCAN BUCCHERO BY X‐RAY DIFFRACTION, X‐RAY SPECTROMETRY, AND THERMOANALYSIS
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACTSIn order to ascertain whether the technology of Etruscan bucchero was similar everywhere or showed local variation, a comparative study was carried out on 23 samples of bucchero from different sites. The use of carbon dust as a black pigment in this type of pottery was confirmed in all samples, while the hypothesis of the addition of MnO2 as a colouring was disproved. Further information on the nature of the basic constituents of Etruscan bucchero was also provided.
