Digital image analysis (DIA) of thin sections has more recently been used to quantify porosity in ceramic materials. The thin sections can also be used for qualitative mineral identification, quantitative analysis of non-plastics, and the study of structural aspects that relate to fabrication and decorative choices.

THIN-SECTION PETROGRAPHY IN STUDIES OF CULTURAL MATERIALS CHANDRA L. REEDY ABSTRACT-Thin-section petrography can serve a number of functions in studies of cultural objects. It is used to characterize and identify inorganic materials, locate the specific source of materials, group objects that may have a common source, and, less …
Thin sections were also scanned in a high-resolution film scanner (5 µm/pixel resolution) for image analysis using entire thin sections. Image analysis of ceramic bodies measured Total Optical Porosity (area % …
Chandra L. Reedy. Description Contents. This manual is a comprehensive illustrated overview of the minerals and textures seen in polarized light microscopy of cultural artefacts. It focuses on the specific applications of thin-section petrography to the study of cultural materials made of stone (as found in architecture, sculpture, tools etc ...
Chandra Reedy : Okay. For thin section petrography, you have to take a small solid sample from your material. If you have a stone sculpture, you might take a sample from the underside of the base where it's not visible, and you would never sample a whole undamaged ceramic piece, but when you have shards, which in archeology we tend to …
Abstract. Thin-section petrography can serve a number of functions in studies of cultural objects. It is used to characterize and identify inorganic materials, locate the specific source of materials, group objects that may have a common source, and, less commonly, provide information on object deterioration and the effects of conservation …
