Abstract: |
Excavations from 1965 to 1978 of the complex, multi-period landscape at Mucking, Essex produced examples of crucibles, moulds and tuyères from Late Bronze Age to Anglo-Saxon contexts. The crucibles and moulds provide evidence for the casting of copper alloys on a fairly limited scale. One concentration of 8 crucibles and 7 moulds, associated with an Iron Age round house, is noted. The tuyères vary in form and include types that are rare and even unknown in other parts of Britain; some were probably associated with iron working. |
