| Notes: | Description: Archaeologists often can be bemused by archaeometric techniques and query their relevance to mainstream archaeological theory. The authors of the six papers in this volume show how the examination of metal artifacts can be used to formulate archaeological models for culture contact, ritual-artifact use, dating, and craft specialization. |
