Data Quality

These major element concentrations in the glass shards were analysed using a JEOL JXA-8200 electron microprobe equipped with five wavelength-dispersive spectrometers in the School of Archaeology, University of Oxford, UK. A beam accelerating voltage of 15 kV was used with a 6 nA current and a beam diameter of 10 μm. A narrower beam of 5 μm was used for a few highly vesicular samples (noted by a * in the file). The EMP was calibrated using a suite of mineral standards. This calibration was verified using a range of secondary glass standards (ATHO-G, StHs6/80-G and GOR128-G; Jochum et al., 2006).
