Raman spectroscopy pigments on decorated antique Chilean pottery belonging to the Diaguita's culture deposited in Museum of Limari, have been studied by using Raman spectroscopy. Four ceramic fragments from the unknown contexts were examined. Four colors were found with certainty: red, black, brown and white. Quartz and manganese (kempite) salts, as well as different types of oxide pigments: hematite, tenorite and possibly goethite, were identified.
