Poolewe
In 1877, a hoard of nine copper alloy objects was recovered from a peat bog at Poolewe, Scotland, including axeheads, rings and an ornament. For the first time since its discovery, this article publishes the hoard in its entirety, including an assessment of typological features, full illustration and metallurgical analysis. Components of the hoard are characteristic of the British Llyn Fawr/Earliest Iron Age period (800–600 BC) suggesting the dat…
Tainted ores and the rise of tin bronzes in Eurasia, c . 6500 years ago
The earliest tin bronze artefacts in Eurasia are generally believed to have appeared in the Near East in the early third millennium BC.

The discovery prompted a reassessment of 14 ins…
