| Abstract: |
| Since the 1970s, archaeometallurgical research in China has entered a period of great development. Scientists, archaeologists, and historians have participated in the research, and have achieved a series of important results in the origin of copper smelting and the formation of bronze smelting and casting system, the formation and development of iron and steel making technology, non-ferrous metal smelting technology, ancient metal production and national governance. However, there is still great space for research in field work and information collection standards, key research methods for ancient metal materials, crafts and communication studies, as well as the origin and development of Chinese civilization and nation research. More archaeometallurgical theories and methods, as well as key scientific issues, need to be studied in the future. In this paper, the major achievements since 1974 were briefly reviewed and summarized. The existing problems were analyzed. The suggestions for future development were puts forward. |
