Prehistoric copper metallurgy in the Italian Eastern Alps: recent results

Publication Type:

Keywords:

Alpi orientali; Italia; metallurgia; archeometallurgia; rame; risultati recenti; miniere di rame; database geochimico

Abstract:

The University of Padova has developed a geochemical database for the Alpine copper mines which contains lead isotope data for most of the copper deposits in the Western Alps and Italian Eastern Alps, besides a number of other geochemical tracers for selected deposits. The database fills an existing gap in available reference data and provides information for the geochemical interpretation of the mineral deposits. It is of course also an important reference for archaeometric purposes, to provenance the mineral source of slags and metal objects. Several Alpine copper deposits may now be successfully discriminated from those of other European and Mediterranean mining areas. The results obtained on a number of Copper Age and Bronze Age metal objects are presented. A few objects made with copper ores of South-East Alpine origin have been positively identified for the first time, though the data also indicate a wide circulation of copper metal possibly originating from ore sources outside the Alps.

The Political Economy and Metal Trade in Bronze Age Europe: Understanding Regional Variability in Terms of Comparative Advantages and Articulations

Publication Type:

Journal Article

Source:

European Journal of Archaeology, pp.633-657 (2015)

Keywords:

Europa; Età del Bronzo; economia politica; commercio metalli; variabilità regionale;

Abstract:

In the second millennium cal BC, a new metal conquered Europe: the alloy of copper and tin that improved the quality of tools and weapons. This development, we argue, initiated a framework for a new political economy. We explore how a political economy approach may help understand the European Bronze Age by focussing on regional comparative advantages in long-distance trade and resulting bottlenecks in commodity flows. Links existed in commodity chains, where obligated labour and ownership of resources helped mobilize surpluses, thus creating potential for social segments to control the production and flows of critical goods. The political economy of Bronze Age Europe would thus represent a transformation in how would-be leaders mobilized resources to support their political ends. The long-distance trade in metals and other commodities created a shift from local group ownership towards increasingly individual strategies to obtain wealth from macro-regional trade. We construct our argument to make sense of available data, but recognize that our model's primary purpose is to structure future research to test the model.

Late Bronze Age Copper Smelting Slags from Luserna (Trentino, Italy): Interpretation of the Metallurgical Process

Publication Type:

Journal Article

Source:

Archeometry, Volume 58, pp.96-114 (2015)

Keywords:

Trentino; Luserna; Scorie di fusione; Età del bronzo; processo metallurgico

Abstract:

In the Late Bronze Age, the extractive metallurgy of copper in north-eastern Italy achieved a peak of technological efficiency and mass production, as evidenced by the substantial number of metallurgical sites and the large volume of slags resulting from smelting activities. In order to define the technological features of the Late Bronze Age metallurgical process, more than 20 slags from the smelting site of Luserna (Trentino, Italy) were fully analysed by means of optical microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and scanning electron microscopy. Three different slag types were identified based on mineralogical and chemico-physical parameters, each being interpreted as the product of distinct metallurgical steps. A Cu-smelting model is proposed accordingly.
