Abstract
Although programs focusing on the provenance of ancient iron are becoming more common in archaeometallurgical research, no standardised approach currently exists. Recent studies have shown the potential of osmium (187Os/188Os) isotope analysis as a robust and effective method. It was also shown that trace element composition analysis, of the metal phase, provides a complementary fingerprint to refine hypotheses about the origins of archaeological iron, and to overcome the overlapping of isotopic signatures. This study further explores the potential of the rhenium-osmium isotope system and the 187Re/188Os isotope ratio as an additional parameter for distinguishing ore sources.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Archaeological Science is aimed at archaeologists and scientists with particular interests in advancing the development and application of scientific techniques and methodologies to all areas of archaeology. This established monthly journal publishes focus articles, original research papers and major review articles, of wide archaeological significance. The journal provides an international forum for archaeologists and scientists from widely different scientific backgrounds who share a common interest in developing and applying scientific methods to inform major debates through improving the quality and reliability of scientific information derived from archaeological research.
