Is creativity a reality in Bulgaria cities? An empirical study in the pre-pandemic period
This study aims to obtain a composite index characterizing Bulgarian districts about their creativity by presenting results for the pre-pandemic. The composite index developed by Rodrigues and Franco (2019), use of quantitative method and multivariate statistical techniques have been used to answer this objective. From the data gathered primarily from NSI- The National Statistical Institute of Bulgaria, the results show that creativity is one of …
Profile of urban sustainability in Bulgaria
Sustainability is becoming increasingly relevant due to the need to decide on planned management of land use and natural resources as well as sustainable development in the context of cities. This study aims to identify indicators for measuring the sustainable development of districts/countries in Bulgaria. Using the Multivariate Analysis (MVA) method, where we examine multiple variables in several dimensions, the results show that in the environ…
Study of an Iron Age Gilded Silver Earring by XRF, SEM-EDS and Multifocus OM
The use of gold for artefact productions underwent substantial developments during Iron Age in western Europe, with the diversification of alloy compositions and the introduction of new technologies and aesthetics. This work presents a detailed study of a Late Iron Age earring from the western Iberian Peninsula and a discussion taking into consideration the alloys and technologies used at the time. The earring has a complex structure, composed of…
Chalcolithic copper production and use in the western end of the Iberian Peninsula
Composition and manufacture of a rare gold example of the Mesopotamian "tree of life" iconography and coeval jewellery in southwestern Iberian Peninsula
Later prehistoric tin mining in the Ervedosa mine (Vinhais, Portugal)
New evidence on Iron Age bronze metallurgy in southwestern Iberian Peninsula
Símbolos de estatus o una visión de los primeros momentos del Bronce Medio del suroeste
El reciente descubrimiento y excavación arqueológica de dos estructuras funerarias ubicadas en Horta do Pinheiro 5 (sur de Portugal) arrojan una nueva luz sobre los primeros momentos del Bronce Medio del suroeste. Estas estructuras, una fosa y un hipogeo, ambas asociadas con otra fosa, han permitido profundizar en el conocimiento de los rituales funerarios practicados en esa época. Las ofrendas funerarias recogidas en ambas estructuras destacan p…
A first appraisal on copper sources for Chalcolithic settlements in southern Portugal using Pb isotope analysis
Compositional and microstructural outlook of grave goods from Anta do Malhão and Soalheironas (Portugal)
European Silver Sources from the 15th to the 17th Century
The circulation trading routes and the characterization of the silver metal used in the European continent in the 15–17th centuries are historical issues that are still open. This study aimed to bring an insight into the silver processed within a chronological framework in the Portuguese territory, relating the analytical data with the known historical information. This investigation developed on 230 high silver coins from two important Portugues…
Ancient tin production
Early Imports in the Late Bronze Age of South‐Western Iberia
The composition and manufacture of Late Bronze Age metallic artefacts from funerary and domestic contexts of southern inland Portugal was studied. The prevailing trend comprises binary bronzes (10.3 ± 2.1 wt% Sn) showing deformed equiaxial grains, annealing twins and slip bands. The alloy composition is somewhat independent of artefact type, while the manufacture seems to rely on artefact function and the skilfulness of the metallurgist. The tech…
Una revisión de los discos de Fortios
Hemos empleado fluorescencia de rayos X por energía dispersiva (EDXRF), emisión de rayos X inducida por partículas (Micro-PIXE) y microscopía (análisis metalográfico), complementada con microscopia electrónica de barrido y espectroscopia de rayos X en energía dispersiva (SEM-EDS), primero para determinar el contenido elemental y segundo para identificar el proceso empleado para unir los componentes (disco, anillo periférico y presilla) de varios …

Middle Bronze Age Arsenical Copper Alloys in Southern Portugal
In the Iberian Peninsula, the copper metallurgy from the Chalcolithic to the Middle Bronze Age (MBA) was mostly characterized by low arsenic contents. A collection of 53 MBA artefacts from southern Portugal was analysed by micro-EDXRF, optical microscopy, SEM–EDS and Vickers to investigate the metal composition and manufacture. No technological distinction was found between artefacts from domestic and funerary contexts, which were radiocarbon-dat…
A Compositional and Microstructural Study of Eighth‐Century BC Bronzes from Moita Da Ladra (Tagus Estuary)
Metals from a votive deposit at Moita da Ladra (Tagus Estuary) dating to the eighth century bc were studied by micro‐EDXRF, optical microscopy and Vickers testing to investigate the adoption of Phoenician innovations by indigenous communities. Artefacts are made of bronze alloys with suitable tin contents (11.6 ± 2.3 wt%) and very low iron impurities ( bc

Estudo arqueometalúrgico do conjunto metálico do sítio arqueológico de Moinhos de Golas (Montalegre, Norte de Portugal)
O presente trabalho apresenta os primeiros resultados de um estudo arqueometalúrgico detalhado, ainda em curso, efetuado sobre um conjunto de achados metálicos encontrado no sítio de Moinhos de Golas, freguesia de Solveira, concelho de Montalegre. Este, genericamente, atribuído à Proto-história foi já objeto de uma primeira publicação (FONTE et al. 2013).A coleção é composta por 35 objetos, entre os quais se encontram armas, artefactos de adorno …
El ajuar de la necrópolis de Palhais (Beja, Portugal). Nuevos conocimientos sobre la evolución metalúrgica bajo la influencia orientalizante en el extremo suroriental de Iberia
El ajuar funerario de la necrópolis de Palhais (Primera Edad del Hierro) ofrece una oportunidad única para estudiar la introducción de la metalurgia orientalizante en el sur de Portugal. Los metales incluyen objetos destinados al aseo del cuerpo, una fíbula de tipo Alcores y un broche de cinturón, cuya tipología y/o decoración es de inspiración orientalizante. La composición y la cadena operativa de los artefactos se determinaron por EDXRF, Micro…
