At the 1980, 1981, 1982, and 1984 Symposia on Archaeometry, Joseph Davidovits showed the possibility of fabricating ceramics by Low Temperature Geopolymeric Setting between 50°C and 500°C. The results obtained with LTGS have been surprising and very interesting from the archaeological point of view, e.g. the fabrication of ceramic whose surface is covered by [...]
