Temperature is a crucial factor influencing the effectiveness of metal smelting process. When studied in historical slags it provides information on evolution technologies over time and how humankind approached recovery. Methodological approaches to temperature reconstruction using pyrometallurgical vary this study serves as critical review methods used so far with complex site an example application methods. The includes silica-undersaturated, potassium-rich Cu from four sites Old Copper...
A collection of objects associated with prehistoric metallurgy, including casting moulds, a core, and fragment tuyere, were found in three metallurgists' graves the Late Bronze Age cemetery Legnica, south-west Poland. The finds from these presented an opportunity for scientific investigation several aspects metallurgy this region by applying various analytical procedures to characterise remains metals inside moulds. We also analysed metal used repair one razor that could have been cast mould...
Abstract During excavation of the cremation cemetery urnfield culture in Legnica at Spokojna Street (Lower Silesia, Poland), dated to 1100-700 BC, largest - so far Poland – a collection casting moulds from Bronze Age was discovered: three for axes made out stone and five sickles, razors, spearhead chisels, clay. This archaeological find constituted fittings foundrymen’s graves. In order perform complete analysis respect their application technology analytical methods, as well as, computer...
Despite rich deposits of copper in SW Poland, their exploitation prehistory has not been confirmed, and the literature it is usually argued that raw materials processed Bronze Age were imported. This despite same area providing abundant evidence prehistoric metallurgy including casting moulds, tuyeres or crucibles. The concentration sites parts Sudety Mountains (in particular a region called Pogórze Kaczawskie) ores far from arable land may also indicate prospection activities this search...
Objects made of osseous materials are extremely rare in the urnfield burial contexts dated SW Poland to late Bronze and early Iron Age (ca. 1300–550 BCE). That may be result cremation process which bone/antler artefacts fragmented difficult distinguish from human bones, usually densely packed ceramic urns. We compare data about 95 specimens four urnfields (Dunino [2], Jarząbkowice [1], Wicina Sękowice [5]) one bi-ritual cemetery (Przeczyce [76]). The analysis micro traces showed that these...
Investment casting technology that utilizes lost-wax is one of the most-important achievements ancient society.In Lower Silesia, Poland (Grzybiany, Legnica county), a 7-6 BC workshop was discovered with numerous artifacts, confirming existence manufacturing process metal ornaments using ceramic molds.The paper presents research molds and casts from Bronze Early Iron Ages.Microscopic analyses were performed, along radiographic chemical composition tests artifacts (the latter employing use...
The casting workshop was discovered with numerous artifacts, confirming the existence of manufacturing process metal ornaments using ceramic molds and investment technology in Lower Silesia (Poland) 7-6 BC.The research has yielded significant technological information about bronze field, especially alloys that were used artifacts made from them.Based on analyses, model experimentally reconstructed.Taking advantage computer-modeling method, a geometric visualization bracelets performed;...
Many traces of copper metallurgy, such as slag and other melts, can be found in the area Lower Silesia. The research programme, which assesses exact location detailed inventory sites connected with mining smelting three historical regions its exploitation, well testing collected material is implemented by Copper Museum Legnica, collaboration Faculty Foundry, at University Science Technology. tested mainly consists different content being a semi product. metallurgy remains, discovered during...
The casting workshop in Grzybiany is one of the most important archaeological sites regards to technology from Bronze and Early Iron Ages. During “Grzybiany. Osada nadjeziorna z epoki brązu i żelaza” [Grzybiany. Lakeside settlement Ages] research, structure moulds was analyzed as well chemical composition microstructure more-interesting metal artefacts found within workshop. Basedon this, geometric visualization performed with help computer-modeling methods. For scientific, experimental,...
Abstract Ceramic moulds are regarded as highly specialised, refractory tools used in metallurgy, yet their production process still needs clarification. Our research aimed to characterise the stages of operational chains applied mould manufacture. The evidence comes from Late Bronze and Early Iron Age lake settlement Grzybiany SW Poland, dated 9/8th–5th century bce . site provided rich data on tin‐bronze chiefly lost‐wax technique, involving hundreds broken complete ceramic moulds....
Abstract Usage patterns are one of the leading research issues in archaeological pottery studies. Non-cinerary vessels deposited burials Lusatian Urnfield particularly intriguing since they did not typically undergo detailed functional analysis. Their function has usually been determined based on shape and surface treatment. Thus, grave is widely regarded to have explicitly fashioned for mortuary practices used other purposes. It applies ceramic items than containers, such as zoomorphic...
