Author(s): Justine Bayley
116 sherds and 16 fairly complete crucibles of 3 different fabrics were examined and the metal-rich deposits on them analysed by XRF. Evidence for the melting of silver was found mainly, but not exclusively,on Stamford ware and small London ware crucibles while the larger London ware and EMCW crucibles were used mainly for a wide range of copper alloys.
