Sagalassos hematite
Pisidia, Burdur province, Turkey
OtherFe
- Type
- Hematite ore worked in antiquity
Hematite ore recovered from early Roman contexts at Sagalassos. Its unradiogenic lead and high strontium clearly set it apart from the nearby Dereköy magnetite sands, and match the early Roman iron of the site.
