摘要

本文研究了来自危地马拉佩特海姆6个遗址的13块骨头样本，这些样本的表面被涂上了各种各样的红色，这是殡葬仪式的一种活动。考古分析如x射线荧光和扫描电子显微镜揭示了颜料的存在，包括氧化铁和朱砂。同样，通过气相色谱联用质谱法发现有机成分为阿比烷型萜烯，证实了芳香葬礼软膏的应用。这组无机和有机分析有助于理解危地马拉佩特海姆古玛雅人与感官相关的丧葬习俗。

The application of fragrant ointments and pigments as a funeral practice in the Guatemalan Petén

This paper studies thirteen bone samples from six sites in the Guatemalan Petén, whose surface was pigmented with various reddish hues as one of the activities of mortuary ceremonies. Archaeometric analyses as X-ray fluorescence and scanning electron microscopy disclosed the presence of pigments including iron oxide and cinnabar. Likewise, organic components were revealed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry as terpenes of the abietane type, confirming the application of fragrant funeral ointments. The set of inorganic and organic analyses contributed to the understanding of a sensorially related funerary practice of the ancient Maya from Guatemalan Petén.
