The techniques used in the lithological and chemical characterization included XRD, petrographic microscopy and electron dispersive scanning microscopy. The chemical index of weathering (CIW) was used to quantify the state of stone decay. The lithology and different types of alterations observed were mapped. A comparison of the material on the building to ancient quarries identified “Naranjo” as the possible site where the stone was originally quarried.}, number={293}, journal={Materiales de Construcción}, author={Barrios Neira, J. and Montealegre, L. and Ortega, A. and Meroño, J.
