I recently attended the annual meeting of the Soc. for Historical
Archaeology. One of the presentations was on a Spanish colonial
mining/processing site in New Mexico. While my area of interest is
iron, and the Spanish were largely engrossed in the collection of
precious metals, I have seen very little written on any aspect of
Spanish metallurgy. I seem to recall one article that had pictures of
ore processing in the Americas, but that is about it. Does anyone know
of any material on Spanish and more specifically Spanish colonial
metalworking?
Thanks
