The dataset contains data collected as part of the Ancient Adhesives project under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme Grant Agreement No. 678 804151 (Grant holder G.H.J.L.). 

It is being made public to act as supplementary data for a publication and for other researchers to use this data in their own work.


The data in this dataset were collected at TUDelft in 2022 and 2023.


This dataset contains:

-Raw data of XRD of 11 archaeological objects named: SBF4; SBF5; SBF9; SBF10; SBF14; SBF15; SBF17; SBF20; SBF21; SBF23; SBF24. The filfe format is .raw

-Raw data of FTIR of 6 archaeological objects named SBF4; SBF9; SBF10; SBF20; SBF21; SBF24. The file format is .csv 

-Raw data of ATR-FTIR of 1 archaeological object named SBF14. The file format is .csv


The acronym SBF stands for Steenbokfontein, a cave in the Western Cape province (South Africa) where the objects were found. 


The data included in this dataset has been organized per specimen. For each specimen, more than one point was measured as indicated in the file name. 

The file name includes the unique ID of the object + the analytical technique + the number of the scan (at least 2 per object). For example: SBF14_ATR_scan01
