Résumé
This work presents a non-invasive material study of the Red Queen's funerary offering via in situ infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopies for mineral identification, and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) for elemental characterization. A second non-destructive laboratory stage on the main mask of the offering only was carried out by particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) for further elemental analysis. The main FTIR results indicate that all of the tesserae of the main mask are composed of malachite, identified by their ν(CuO), ν(CuOH), ν
