This study focuses on the seals of validation, sealing written documents, used in the Western Middle Ages, especially wax seals. We use THz spectroscopy and imaging for non-destructive evaluation of natural materials within those seals. Using a time domain THz spectroscopy and imaging system, THz transmission images are generated in the 0.1-3 THz range and demonstrate that the spectral properties of these materials allow to see across and under a thick layer of old wax.Read less <
