Through weathering, the hardness of nephrite is reduced. This same effect is found in the nephrite artifacts excavated from the Peinan Culture sites in Taiwan.In this study, 12 fragmentary samples of nephrite wares from the Pin-lin site in the Hualien county of Taiwan were selected and analysed by a Vickers hardness tester and a Raman spectrometer. The purpose was to examine the hardness and identify the minerals content. The results reveal that these nephrite artefacts are composed of tremolite and actinolite, with hardness on the b(010) crystallographic face reduced from 710 to 405-67, equivalent to Mohs scale 5.8 to 4.6-2.3. Evidently, after approximately 3,500 years of burial underground, the hardness of the polished nephrite was significantly reduced. This paper also discusses the reason why the Mohs hardness of nephrites given by Dana and Deer et al. is not that of the fresh nephrites from Taiwan, New Zealand and mainland China.
