Beaker and early bronze age tin exploitation in cornwall: cassiterite processing identified through microwear and pxrf analyses

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Beaker et al. from the School of Applied Sciences, University of Brighton, UK have published the research: Beaker and Early Bronze Age Tin Exploitation in Cornwall: Cassiterite Processing Identified through Microwear and pXRF Analyses, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The small-scale collecting and smelting of tin ores, primarily from cassiterite pebbles, is unlikely to have left direct traces in the archaeological record, and hence we must apply other suites of analyses to detect such activity.
• how: Microscopic observations were conducted at low ( and amplt100×) and high magnifications (100× and 200×) utilizing . . .
