Description
Excerpt from Ancient Egyptian Metallurgy
The practical points brought out by this work are (1) The value of microscopical examination in the study of ancient specimens (2) The probability of a much earlier iron age in Egypt than that generally accepted: (3) The early use of the cire perdu process for castings and (4) the comparatively late use of cold working associated with annealing for the shaping of vessels, etc.
