Just when I thought I had the whole Olmec trade thing down...

Say, didn't the Olmec women run the whole show from door to door? I hear they got pink blankets if they did well. MesoaMarican K got the whole thing going.

The new results were obtained through the use of petrography, a long-established geological technique capable of accurately identifying minerals in a sample. "With this technique, you can identify minerals and rocks, not the elements as you get with neutron activation," says Stoltman, an authority on petrography. "It is a technique that is very accurate for identifying minerals."

As an old miner, I would clearly go with the newer results. The geological techniques have detected "salted" claims by identifing the source of the "imported" ore.

Thanks Blam. I now know that, in ancient Italy, Ostia was just as important as Rome. ;')

paleo-CAFTA?

Today potters import their clay and glazes from specific areas for the same attributes described in the article. The "grog" (as the temper is sometimes called" may likewise be added when the clay is formulated.

If the clay was mined in a certain area and distributed among the tribes, you might get the same results.
