摘要:The University of Missouri Research Reactor Center (MURR) initiated a research program in 2003 centered on the chemical characterizations of ceramics from the Caribbean region. This article describes the technique and procedures involved in instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA), applied to all but one of the studies in this issue. These papers were presented at the 2006 Society for American Archaeology (SAA) 71stannual meetings in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The collaborative studies presented are preliminary in nature, but hold promise for ad-dressing a myriad of issues regarding Caribbean prehistory, ranging from island settlement to culture change
