Abstract

Rare earth element (REE) compositions in ceramics from the Tongguanyao site (TGY) of China were determined by the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) to compare their sources. Total REE concentrations of 14 samples range from 120.9 to 453 g•g-1, with an average value of 228.5 g•g-1. The inconformity of chondrite-normalized REE patterns suggests that pottery and porcelain have different material sources. The normalized REE patterns indicates similar trends between the raw materials and ceramics in the same period, as a higher concentration of REEs is presented in the ceramics, suggesting that REEs enriched during the production process of ceramics with high temperature. A different chondrite normalized REE pattern between the reticulated soil and ceramics implies that they had not a single source, probably mixed material sources.
