The project investigated the uses of Bronze Age swords, shields, and spears by combining integrated experimental archaeology and metalwork wear analysis. The research is grounded in an explicit and replicable methodology providing a blueprint for future experimentation with, and wear analysis of, prehistoric copper-alloy weapons. We present a four-step experimental methodology including both controlled and actualistic experiments. The experimental results informed the wear analysis of 110 Middle and Late Bronze Age swords from Britain and Italy. The research has generated new understandings of prehistoric combat, including diagnostic and undiagnostic combat marks and how to interpret them; how to hold and use a Bronze Age sword; the degree of skill and training required for proficient combat; the realities of Bronze Age swordplay including the frequency of blade-on-blade contact; the body parts and areas targeted by prehistoric sword fencers; and the evolution of fighting styles in Britain and Italy from the late 2nd to the early 1st millennia BC."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s10816-020-09451-0"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/64889"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.eissn","1573-7764"],["dc.relation.issn","1072-5369"],["dc.title","Bronze Age Swordsmanship: New Insights from Experiments and Wear Analysis"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Consisting of balance beams, suspension cords,scale pans and sometimes metal suspension loops, the only evidence found to date are 18 complete and frag-mented balance beams. Made of bone or antler, these balance beams are often perceived as extremely fragile andonly able to weigh-out minute loads. This, however, had never been tested. In order to understand exactly howBronze Age balances were made, of what materials and how much load they could bear, a number of replicabalance beams, suspension cords and metal loops were created. The load-bearing capacity was then tested withtwo standard material sciences testing methods: three-point bending tests and uniaxial tensile testing."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.jasrep.2020.102444"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/17675"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/91885"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","2352-409X"],["dc.relation.issn","2352-409X"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Philosophische Fakultät"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC-ND 4.0"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0"],["dc.subject","European Bronze Age; Balance scales; Weight metrology; Experimental archaeology; Bone carving; Fibre making; Bronze wire"],["dc.subject.ddc","100"],["dc.title","Breaking News!

For the first time in history, merchants could rely on an objective frame of reference to quantify economic value. The subsequent emergence of different weight systems goes hand in hand with the formation of a continental market. However, we still do not know how the technological transmission happened and why different weight systems emerged along the way. Here, we show that the diffusion of weighing technology can be explained as the result of merchants\\’ interaction and the emergence of primary weight systems as the outcome of the random propagation of error constrained by market self-regulation. We found that the statistical errors of early units between Mesopotamia and Europe overlap significantly. Our experiment with replica weights gives error figures that are consistent with the archaeological sample. We used these figures to develop a model simulating the formation of primary weight systems based on the random propagation of error over time from a single original unit. The simulation is consistent with the observed distribution of weight units. We demonstrate that the creation of the earliest weight systems is not consistent with a substantial intervention of political authorities. Our results urge a revaluation of the role of individual commercial initiatives in the formation of the first integrated market in Western Eurasia."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1073/pnas.2105873118"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/88378"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-448"],["dc.relation.eissn","1091-6490"],["dc.relation.issn","0027-8424"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Seminar für Ur- und Frühgeschichte"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC-ND 4.0"],["dc.title","Bronze Age weight systems as a measure of market integration in Western Eurasia"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
