Download Metal Ages / Âges Des Métaux Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This volume presents a selection of papers given at the General Session 5 (Metal Ages / Âges des métaux) of the XIX UISPP World Congress, originally planned to take place in early September 2020 in Meknes (Morocco), but postponed due to the outbreak of the worldwide Covid pandemic and eventually held as a virtual on-line event from 2 to 7 September 2021. Despite those challenging circumstances, and very much to the credit of the Meknes organizing committee, the Congress turned out to be a resounding success, with many scholars, particularly from African countries attending who would not previously have had an opportunity to participate in such a forum. The eight papers provide a vivid and representative cross section of the wide range of subjects covered in this session and range from the Chalcolithic in Northwest Africa and Iberia to the Late Bronze Age in Ireland and the Iron Age in Central Europe. They include artefact as well as landscape studies and attempt to shed light on issues as diverse as the principles of chronology building, the role of alleged 'defensive' enclosures, pottery studies, use-wear analysis of Iron Age weaponry and the Hallstatt/La Tène transition in the eastern Alps.

Download A History of Metallurgy Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The first edition of this standard introduction was published in 1976, and reprinted in 1979; this new volume is a second edition, completed before the author's death last year. The main changes are in the chapters describing the early development of metallurgy in which there has been so much recent research; the later, post-Roman chapters have been revised to take account of new discoveries from excavations. The volume is extensively illustrated as before and is now issued in a hard cover.

Download Dawn of the Metal Age Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The fifth millennium BCE was a period of rapid social change. One of the key factors was the developments in technology which led to the rise of the metals industry. Archaeological finds from sites dating to the Chalcolithic period indicate the production and use of copper. 'Dawn of the Metal Age' examines a range of sites - from copper mines in Jordan and Israel to the villages of the northern Negev where copper was produced in household workshops, to a series of cave burials where a range of luxury metal goods were buried with the elite members of Chalcolithic society. Ancient technology is reconstructed from the archaeological evidence, which also illuminates the changing economic, social, religious and political environment of the time.

Download The Living Rock Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This book concentrates on the social and economic effects that metals have had on community life and on wider historical developments. It gives a fascinating perspective proclaiming that the history of metals is the history of civilization; basing the text on the results of archeometallurgists and materials scientists and looking at the advancement of societies as a direct result of their new-found technology. The author's clear and lucid style prevents the book becoming aridly academic while he maps the course of ancient history through to medieval times and beyond, showing metal to be, ultimately, the key to history.

Download Is There a British Chalcolithic? Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The Chalcolithic, the phase in prehistory when the important technical development of adding tin to copper to produce bronze had not yet taken place, is not a term generally used by British prehistorians and whether there is even a definable phase is debated. Is there a British Chalcolithic? brings together many leading authorities in 20 papers that address this question. Papers are grouped under several headings. Definitions, Issues and Debate considers whether appropriate criteria apply that define a distinctive period (c. 2450 - 2150 cal BC) in cultural, social, and temporal terms with particular emphasis on the role and status of metal artefacts and Beaker pottery. Continental Perspectives addresses various aspects of comparative regions of Europe where a Chalcolithic has been defined. Around Britain and Ireland presents a series of large-scale regional case studies where authors argue for and against the adoption of the term. The final section Economy, Landscapes and Monuments , looks at aspects of economy, land-use and burial tradition and provides a detailed consideration of the Stonehenge and Avebury landscapes during the period in question. The volume contains much detailed information on sites and artefacts, and comprehensive radiocarbon datasets that will be invaluable to scholars and students studying this enigmatic but pivotal episode of British Prehistory.
