Tessera 11. Villa de los Baños (Beas de Segura, Jaén, Spain)

Red tessera from the Roman mosaic of the Villa de los Baños (Beas de Segura, Jaén, Spain). Raman analysis identifies the main peak for quartz (SiO2) and, since only one peak was recorded, also the probable presence of hematite. The raw material used in its manufacture was quartz sandstone.
