The Metals’ Family Tree and their Separate Branches
Metals have been integral to people’s lives for several millennia. We interact with them daily in many forms to fulfil a wide range of needs, from food preparation or elaboration of attire, to architectural components or means of transportation. We take for granted that one material meets these distinct challenges, but discovering metal’s versatility has only been achievable through long-term engagement over a period of millennia. This enabled cr…
Components as a Possible Enabler of ‘Hobby’ Crafters in the Mycenaean World
That crafting is undertaken by a range of individuals outside of economic necessity is a well-known feature of modern societies. These ‘hobby crafters’ have a diverse set of motivations, but the phenomenon as a whole has been strongly linked to the Industrial Revolution and associated emergence of distinct ‘leisure time’, in which craft hobbies can be pursued. Thus a narrative has been established that hobby crafting is a product of the modern er…

Recent developments in archaeometallurgical research
Metallurgy was a fundamental craft industry in the Aegean during the Bronze Age and had some form of impact on almost every aspect of life. This means that archaeometallurgy plays an important role in building our understanding of the region, and has in fact been integrated into Aegean archaeology since the inception of the discipline, well before it was recognized as a separate sub-discipline. Nevertheless, 15 years ago it was still possible for…
The Impact of Archaeological Recording on the Study of Metal Artefacts. Mycenae 1939
Aegean Archaeology is one of the oldest branches of prehistoric archaeological scholarship, and many important settlements and cemeteries, such as those at Mycenae, were excavated before the development of more advanced recording techniques that we take for granted today. Nevertheless, the significance of these legacy data as a source of knowledge means we must still find ways to integrate them into our interpretations, despite their limitations.…
Rethinking Standardization
Standardization can be conceptualized as a scale, from unique bespoke artefacts to uniform items produced on a factory line. It is usually analyzed in terms of whole objects, but is also applicable to their individual traits, such as shape, material, size, decoration or colour. Objects combining different levels of standardization across these traits are able to transmit more complex social meanings. Through the analysis of the standardization of…
Chicken or Egg? Rethinking the Relationship Between the Silver and Tinned Ceramic Vessel Assemblages
Since the 1960s, when the existence of tinned ceramic vessels in the Late Bronze Age Aegean was first recognised, our knowledge of this phenomenon and the catalogue of known examples have expanded significantly. Even before the nature of these objects was fully understood, scholars had suggested that their primary purpose was to imitate metal, particularly silver, vessels. Several silver vessel assemblages, including one from the tholos at Kokla,…
The Gold and Silver Vessels and Other Precious Finds From the Tholos Tomb at Kokla in the Argolid
The Late Helladic IIB–IIIA1 tholos in the Kokla necropolis is a particularly important and intriguing tomb that can provide us with interesting insights into the wider social landscape of the Argolid just prior to the emergence of the Mycenaean palaces. Architecturally, the tomb itself is a unique mix of features derived from tholoi and chamber tombs; its entrance is adorned with what must be one of the earliest-surviving Mycenaean frescoes. This…
