Sažetak
Geological materials are significant part of archaeological findings. They can be found unchanged or slightly changed (eg. in the form of jewellery, simple tools, pigments). On the other hand, they can be significantly altered forming man-made materials (eg. glass, ceramics). The main goals of this presentation are: (1) to classify different geological materials such as minerals, rocks, soils, sediments and ores, and present their usage in ancient times ; (2) to describe their occurrences and availability in the nature with emphasis on the area of today’s Croatia and south-eastern Europe ; (3) to describe their characteristics which made them raw materials, as well as their changes during technological processes ; and (4) to describe tools for provenance determinations. Purpose of the presentation is to acquaint archaeological audience with the possibilities and problems of provenance analysis.
