Metal Artefacts from the Bronze Age and Early Iron Age, vol 1-2 setprice: 200.00 PLNENABLEPRODUCT DISABLEThis two-volume monograph devoted to metal artefacts of the Lusatian culture from the museum’s archaeological collections answers the question: what is hidden in museum storage? The first volume introduces the subject of metal objects—discussing key issues, the history of research, the role of metal in prehistoric communities and its connections with salt, as well as analysing categories of artefacts such as ornaments, elements of dress, tools, and weapons. The second volume is a catalogue of the collection—each object is illustrated and described in terms of findspot, type, dimensions, weight, discovery context, dating, and inventory number. The publication combines a scholarly approach with popularising elements, making it accessible to a broad readership.
