Petrography, Geochemistry and Mineralogy of the Stonehenge Sarsens: Digital Data Collection

Abstract

This collection includes a suite of digital materials that, in combination, characterise the petrography, mineralogy and geochemistry of a sarsen upright (Stone 58) from the central trilithon horseshoe at Stonehenge. The collection arises from work undertaken during the British Academy/Leverhulme Trust project "Geochemical fingerprinting the sarsen stones at Stonehenge" (Small Research Grant SG-170610), led by the University of Brighton. The data accompanies the publication: Nash, D. J., Ciborowski, T. J. R., Darvill, T., Parker Pearson, M., Ullyott, J. S., Damaschke, M., Evans, J. A., Goderis, S., Greaney, S., Huggett, J. M., Ixer, R. A., Pirrie, D., Power, M. R., Salge, T. & Whitaker, N. (2021, in review) Petrological and geochemical characterisation of the sarsen stones at Stonehenge. PLoS ONE
