Abstract:
Over 50 copper alloy and 18 lead and/or tin objects were analysed qualitatively using energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence. The results showed that a wide range of copper alloys had been used, including bronze, brass gunmetal and copper, although the majority of the objects were bronze. There was no apparent correlation between particular types of object and composition, but too few objects were analysed to enable firm conclusions to be drawn. The lead /tin objects were all (with the exception of one tin handle) either lead or tin-lead alloy, probably with between one half and two thirds tin in the alloy. The decorative objects such as brooches and pendants were generally pewter, whereas simple weights, whorls and rings were lead.
