With the aim of building up a much-needed reference collection for
the determination of ancient production methods for cast bronze
artefacts, a series of experiments were carried out at the
University of Sheffield. This volume publishes the methodology and
results of these experiments where bronze flat axes were cast using
three types of moulds - sand, clay and bronze - under controlled
conditions and were cooled using different techniques. The
microstructure, malleability and behaviour of the copper alloy
elements during melting and casting were then compared. A study
with important implications for ancient production methods of cast
bronze artefacts.
