The samples include finished objects (e.g. rings and pins/awls), semi-processed products such as copper ingots, and the debris of metalworking activities. The latter samples are designated by the term 'waste/ spill' and are typologically differentiable from finished objects. They are generally amorphous lumps, often showing areas covered by green copper corrosion products, and are most probably the by-products of processes such as refining of raw copper and casting of objects. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | The Early Dilmun Settlement at Saar, p. 309-324 | Publisher: | Archaeology International | Place of Publication: | London, United Kingdom | ISBN: | 9780953956111 0953956113 |
