Book Synopsis Bronze Age Metalwork: Techniques and traditions in the Nordic Bronze Age 1500-1100 BC by : Heide W. Nørgaard
Book excerpt: Bronze ornaments of the Nordic Bronze Age were elaborate objects that served as status symbols to communicate social hierarchy. An interdisciplinary investigation of the artefacts (dating from 1500-1100 BC) was adopted to elucidate their manufacture and origin, resulting in new insights into metal craft in northern Europe during the Bronze Age.
