I just noticed this multilingual dictionary on Amazon.com, but haven't actually seen the book myself:
Elsevier's Dictionary of Archaeological Materials and Archaeometry
by Zvi Goffer, (1996), 464 pages, ISBN: 0444819495, with translations from English to German, Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese.
There are two directly opposing readers' reviews of it on the American amazon.com site, one saying it's really useful with minor nit-picking errors, and the other saying it's extremely poor, and pointing out some of those errors*.
cheers,
Evelyne
