Abstract

Elemental compositions of Amerindian pottery figurines and two ancient bronze artefacts are given. Results suggest that the pre-Columbian figurines from Los Roques Archipelago, Venezuela, relate to those from the cultural core area at the Valencia Lake Basin on the mainland. However, their provenance could not be confirmed yet. The two bronze artefacts are not original. The employed analytical techniques (ko-NAA, PGAA and NRCA) are briefly discussed.
