During the classification of ceramic material or for the characterization of productions not studied, the macroscopic study of pasta is one of the fundamental aspects. So far, this analysis had to be performed by binocular magnifying glass in a laboratory. This imposed logical limitations for classification in the field or the preparation of studies preliminary. In addition to this, there were other limitations, such as the economic one, that have limited their use in many countries where archeology is not too institutionalized. Everybody These factors have led to the publication of descriptions over overly subjective pastes (characterized by size of the inclusions or the color of it). However, in recent years, small magnifying glasses have been developed USB connection that, with an affordable price, allow you to observe, identify and photograph archaeological ceramics.
