I'd like to know what you find out; I saw one at a water museum, which showed that water inspectors have been using them since the 1920s (and when you consider how little variation there is in the colour of drinking water, you can imagine how precise these things can be), but so far, haven't seen any reference to their use in ceramic analysis or describing soil colours, just continued reliance on Munsell. Either archaeologists can't afford them, or... we're a little skeptical of technology...?

I have done some research into this topic, but am unsure whether or not anyone else has already attempted it. I have looked through several major journals and have not found any reference to such a project. If anyone knows of work of this type that has been done, please let me know of it so that I may incorporate it into my project or switch thesis topics.
