Two Early Chinese Bronze Weapons with Meteoritic Iron Blades
This paper details the examination of two early Chou Chinese bronze weapons which have remnants of iron blades. While the iron age in China began only in the late Spring and Autumn Annals period (ca. 600 B.C.) these blades date from ca. 10,000 B.C. The authors prove that the iron in these two blades is of meteoritic origin; the bronze was cast onto the iron blades. The objects are described. Radiographs, metallographs, microprobe traces, and chem…

Maya Blue
The early peoples of Southern Mexico decorated pottery and painted pictures on walls with a stable blue pigment which is not found elsewhere in the world. Investigation of this blue was started over 30 years ago, but still the true nature of the blue color principle is unknown. Since the blue cannot be destroyed by boiling nitric acid, it does not seem to be vegetable or organic in origin. It is quite unlike azurite or natural ultramarine or othe…
