The identification of wood species in artifacts of archeological/historical significance is important both for repairing and maintaining the artifacts and for understanding their historical and cultural backgrounds. For nearly 20 years, we have examined wood in artifacts by collecting minute, naturally detached fragments and observing them with light or scanning electron microscopy [1–3]. We found that the woods of Torreya sp. (Taxaceae) and Chamaecyparis sp. (Cupressaceae) were frequently used to construct Buddhist statues after the 8th century AD. One problem with the above approach is that it is sometimes difficult to obtain samples with sufficient quality and quantity to make a definitive identification. For this reason, it is important to develop alternative methods for a non-invasive examination of artifacts. We have applied near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to noninvasively identify wood species frequently used in wooden Buddhist statues. In doing so, we achieved a successful separation of T. nucifera and C. obtusa using multivariate analysis [4, 5]. However, it is considered that the separation of both species becomes difficult in the case of wooden Buddhist statues made more than several 100 years ago, because of the degradation of chemical compositions caused by exposure to circumferential condition for a long time. Then, other methods for separating both species without referring to the chemical compositions are desired. In this study, we developed a simple method to separate T. nucifera and C. obtusa based on the difference in the light conductivities of their wood. We then evaluated the possibility of separating T. nucifera and C. obtusa using a portable photospectrometer.
