Mineralogical and chemical composition of mortar from the floor, ceiling and wall of Stibadium B, from the archaeological site of Mediana (Serbia) have been analysed using ICP-OES, FТIR and XRD-spectroscopy and chemical analysis. The results show that hydraulic lime mortar was used with crushed bricks as artificial puzzolanic aggregate. Large contribution of silicon- and aluminum-oxides, indicate the presence of quartz and phyllosilicate minerals derived from the aggregate, river sand and crushed bricks. Also, high content of Pb and Cu was observed in investigated samples.
