The excavation and analysis of the bronze era found in Scotland’s Rozarki has been completed and the first results have been published.
The reservoir came in May 2021 during the excavation at the new home construction site. The excavation found evidence of a small bronze age settlement in Rosmaraki. The Remains Of Seven Roundhouses Were Discovery, Built Over A Long Of More Than Six Centuries One of the round houses contained pieces of weapons (a sword, spare heads), tools (scales) and jewelry (bracelets) pieces of metallic molds.
Archaeologists have speculated that use during round house races can be a kind of family compound. CA. 9th C. BC), the storage was buried on the end of the occupation period. He was buried in the same incident inside the shallow pit, which was large enough to fit the items. The storage was not lost or part of any major deposit. The hole was excluded specifically for these items and then immediately filled. It is possible that the purpose was to be temporary, the treasures of a family were carefully tied together, cushioned with the material of the plants, then when a danger had passed, it was hidden near the house to protect it from the intention of retrieving it, only it never recovered.
When the peak of a clean stack of bronze items from the ground came to light, it was clear that it was not just because of jewelry, but also an important archaeological search for visible organic fibers. In laboratory conditions, the entire reservoir was removed in the mud block.
The block was transferred to the Guard Archaeological Search, which reserved the lab under the conditions controlled for micro -exquisite to ensure that organic remains were preserved. The first X -rays were first applied in the reservoir, which showed nine bronze samples: a complete penny color ornaments, up, a piece of ornaments with a penny colored ornaments inside it, six bracelets and a cup and bracelet at the base.
The main palm color jewelry, which is equipped with 37 rings, is the most complete and complex example of this type of Scotland. There were 13 survivors in the pieces of pieces, and both jewelry were probably made by the same craft worker using the lost wax casting method. It was a very rare process that was used only in the creation of highly valuables, and workshops to prepare such pieces were very few and far in the bronze period. The purpose of these jewelry is not clear because the daily was very small to fit on an average human head, and it showed no sign of distortion to wear around the neck.
The X -ray imaging of the cup -end jewelry has revealed that it was put as a whole object without any visible suture or joining. Many are found found, mostly made of Irish and gold, but its nearest parallel is a bronze version of polio hard in the western mountainous areas. However, the example of Rosmarki is much tough and thick than any of them.
The bracelet was unusual because no one was the same – perhaps they were supported by different people or families. Three of the six indicators of the distortion, suggest that he was wearing repeatedly, and one stood as the most famous panicular bar bracelet found in Scotland.
The micro -exploitation also exposed plants to the plants used as organic carding of packing substances and fibers, in which some bracelets are tied together. Other hoards are found in such a way to suggest that they are interconnected, but this is the first example where organic restrictions survived their place, and proving that they were tied together before the burial.
When the antiques were buried, the breasts and the frinds were used as packing. The lubrication of the tree, the inner bark of a tree, was concentrated around the jewelry after the curves of each. It also created a huge flag on the basis of the pit, which was entangled with the lowest antiquities. Despite being buried for thousands of years, the mass was so strong that the antiques should be kept in its place and it will not easily release its excavation.
But when they were eventually teased, this mass proved to be a very rare thing: a simple over hand knot that was tied around the jewelry of the cup end when the tree was still in ancient state, making it bound to three comgans. At the very end of the bronze era, Rosmarki Hard: 894-794 provided a sample taken from the Bast for the burial of BC.
Bronze’s Osotop and Metallurgical Analysis of the items revealed that the metals originated in Wales and England, which was found 150 miles southeast of bronze -like cornosity weapons storage. This indicates that metal workers of the brass era in Scotland are the source of their raw materials from these areas, possibly through the same trade routes.
The results from the entire excavation of the site have been published in archaeological reports online and can be read here (PDF). On the hoard Chapter starts on page 124.
