WORLD ARCHAEOLOGY OF GOLD<\/p>\n
s061<\/a><\/p>\n Duncan Miller and Paul Craddock<\/p>\n The contributions are more clearly defined in topic in that all are concerned with various aspects of the technical history and scientific study of gold production and goldworking. Included, there are two papers on gold mining, two on the refining of gold, two on goldworking and one each on the more general and diverse topics of the technical considerations of the aesthetics of goldwork and on the fingerprinting of gold sources by trace element analysis. The latter paper should prove especially important as the research represents one of the more important breakthroughs in the provenancing of metals in antiquity generally.<\/p>\n This has provided a very balanced framework within which it should be possible to generate debate on a wide range of topics connected with gold. Thus the potential is there to attract an audience with a diverse interests to discuss these topics both generally and more specifically applied to the history of gold mining and working within southern Africa.<\/p>\n papers: WORLD ARCHAEOLOGY OF GOLD s061 Duncan Miller and Paul Craddock The contributions are more clearly defined in topic in that all are concerned with various aspects of the technical history and scientific study of gold production and goldworking.
