The Black Inlay Decoration on a Mycenaean Bronze Dagger
The black inlay decoration with superb marine, hunting and other scenes on Mycenaean bronze daggers and silver cups has often been referred to in the literature as niello—a mixture of sulphides of copper, silver or lead—despite the absence of any systematic analysis of these precious metal artefacts. This paper presents semi‐quantitative surface analyses of an example of black inlay on a Mycenaean dagger, now in the Archaeological Museum at Patra…
The question of meteoritic versus smelted nickel-rich iron: Archaeological evidence and experimental results
The absence, until now, of evidence for the smelting of nickel‐rich iron ores has led to much speculation about the respective nature and properties of smelted nickel‐rich iron compared to iron meteorites. The relevant literature on the latter subject is critically reviewed. Recently, archaeological evidence of smelting of nickel‐rich lateritic iron ores (bloom, slag) has surfaced in a second century BC settlement in north Greece. Experimental sm…
The composition of tin slags from the south-west of England
This paper discusses tin slags from archaeological contexts in the south‐west of England dating from the Early Bronze Age to the nineteenth century. It also includes slags resulting from a recent experimental smelting programme. Analyses show that there has been little change in composition over this period and that most primary tin slags contain from 10–30 per cent stannous oxide in the glass phase, with tin metal prills more common in the early…
