Metal-touching tools from ancient graves: The case of a Roman period royal burial

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

As is the case in countless prehistoric and early medieval burials in Europe and the Near East, the richly furnished burial of Germanic rulers from the second century AD, uncovered near the Roman army camp at Mušov (Czech Republic), also contained typical stone artefacts. Following the results of a chemical microanalysis of traces of precious and other non-ferrous metals on their surface, the authors discuss the original function of the artefacts. The observed streaks bring forward the issue of ancient metallurgy (an alloy of arsenic and silver), speisses (nickel), and document the testing of minerals (cinnabar). As this royal burial contained also representative forging tongs, it provides an occasion to illustrate the weakness of the still-popular social, or even “professional”, interpretation of burials based on the tools they are furnished with, which reflects the dependence of today's archaeology on ideas from the first half of the nineteenth century, when the discipline was being established.
