Abstract
This article summarises the papers presented at a workshop on the early metallurgy of Iran, held in the Department of Archaeology, University of Nottingham, in September 2007. The fourteen presentations from scholars based in Iran, Europe, and the USA summarise newly collected data and contextualise recent archaeometallurgical research on an Iran-wide scale. Issues addressed include early copper smelting, artefact alloying and fabrication, tin mining, early silver production, and technology transfer. It is hoped that the Nottingham workshop will help to promote and direct further research into this subject.
