Dear
All
The
‘Rise of Metallurgy in Eurasia’ team is pleased to present
you with the final project monograph (with the same title),
which is open access and fully downloadable from:
https://doi.org/10.32028/9781803270425
I
was reminded today that there was an email sent to this list
back in 2010 by Chris Salter (below), kindly sharing the
news of the earliest documented metal smelting to date
discovered in Serbia and dated to c. 5000 BC. Eleven years
forward, this date firmly stands, but we know much more
(though never enough!) on the ‘how’ and ‘why’ behind this
discovery.
The
monograph is a finale of a long journey that many of the
list members contributed to through chats and constructive
feedback, offering a helping hand or providing inspiration
with their excellent research publications. For that, we
remain eternally grateful.
We
hope that you enjoy the resulting volume and we remain open
for continuing discussion on the topic.
With
best wishes for the coming holidays, and Happy New 2022!
Miljana
(on behalf of the team)
