Measurement Data of analyzed Ashdod-Yam samples

This dataset comprises geochemical analyses of bitumen and plastic earthen material (PEM) samples recovered from the Ashdod-Yam Byzantine church in Israel. The data provides detailed chemical composition information obtained through three analytical techniques: portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF), wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF), and environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). These methods were employed to characterize the elemental and structural properties of the samples, offering insights into their composition and potential origins.
