Structure and composition of roman period metal artefacts from the north Sinai

Three metal artefacts, found on the North Sinai coast, have been examined metallurgically. The purpose of the examination was to determine if particular characteristics of the artefacts could be defined, using modern metallurgical techniques, which would help determine where and how the artefacts were produced. The initial observations of the structure and composition of artefacts have been reported⁽¹⁾. A more detailed examination of the samples has been completed and the results are presented in this report.
