Ancient Egyptian Metallurgy

H. Garland

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The practical points brought out by this work are (1) The value of microscopical examination in the study of ancient specimens (2) The probability of a much earlier iron age in Egypt than that generally accepted: (3) The early use of the cire perdu process for castings and (4) the comparatively late use of cold working associated with annealing for the shaping of vessels, etc.
