Plant exudates have been used around the world for cultural expression and various applications throughout the archaeological record and continue today. Indigenous Australians utilize specific plant exudates for their physiochemical properties and as a fundamental connection to Country. This manuscript contains data related to the analysis of aged Australian native plant exudates, using an assemblage from turn of the 20 century with provenance information but no further information on the collectors. Data from these aged samples are augmented by parallel examples from worldwide locations that have been more extensively characterized. Data were acquired via laboratory-based mid-infrared spectroscopy (mid-IR) and synchrotron-based far-infrared spectroscopy (far-IR). Spectral data are presented, organised by genera with multiple samples () for both mid- and far-IR regions to allow direct comparisons of the fingerprint areas for both spectral regions. All spectra were normalised to their highest and lowest values for presentation. Further comparisons can be made with future work on native Australian plant exudates in collections and cultural heritage materials, to identify their genera and species. This manuscript presents the collected spectral data in the mid and far infrared.
在整个考古记录中，植物分泌物在世界各地被用于文化表达和各种用途，并且这种情况一直持续到今天。澳大利亚原住民利用特定植物分泌物的物理化学特性，并将其作为与祖国的基本联系。本手稿包含与澳大利亚本土陈年植物分泌物分析相关的数据，这些数据来自20世纪初的一批样本，有出处信息，但没有关于采集者的更多信息。来自这些陈年样本的数据通过来自世界各地已被更广泛表征的平行示例得到补充。数据通过基于实验室的中红外光谱（mid-IR）和基于同步加速器的远红外光谱（far-IR）获取。给出了光谱数据，按属进行组织，中红外和远红外区域都有多个样本，以便直接比较两个光谱区域的指纹区域。所有光谱都归一化为其最高值和最低值以便展示。未来对澳大利亚本土植物分泌物在收藏品和文化遗产材料方面的研究可以进行进一步比较，以确定它们的属和种。本手稿展示了在中红外和远红外区域收集到的光谱数据。
