Most veins of lead in the world seem to have slightly different isotopic signatures, so it is in theory possible to match a particular artifact to a particular source. This matching can also be done for metals such as silver and copper that may contain lead, thus providing an invaluable indicator of what sources were exploited in a given period. Chemical and petrographic analyses have opened up similar possibilities for pottery. Such studies help us trace the dynamics of contact between one group or region and another.
