This project deals with the use of modern metallographic approaches on Bronze Age metal artefacts. They are analyzed for their mechanical properties, metallurgy and provenance. The application of these analytical methods on a sample of data from our territory will complement the international research data network. While working on this project, I aim to gain practice and knowledge in the field of archaeometallurgy, so I would be able to participate in research projects on international level.
