“…These studies comprise the analyses of ashes, charred bones, stone implements of diverse lithologies or organic residues through the application of different geoarchaeological techniques such as Mössbauer spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (XRD), soil micromorphology or Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), among others (e.g. Munayco and Scorzelli, 2013;Reidsma et al, 2016;Schmidt et al, 2013Schmidt et al, , 2015Schmidt et al, , 2017Wadley and Prinsloo 2014). Magnetic methods are very sensitive to detect thermal alterations in archaeological or geological materials.…”
