Abstract
The constituents of the clay minerals in eighteen Nile clay and two Desert (calcareous) samples, were investigated. The physicochemical transformations induced in the iron containing phases were followed by heat treatment. A conclusion was reached about the behaviour of the ferrous and ferric ions at various temperatures. This behabviour is applied to characterize the archaeological Ancient Egyptian pottery.
