Introduction of the Deh Hosein Ancient Tin-Copper Mine, Western Iran: Evidence From Geology, Archaeology, Geochemistry and Lead Isotope Data

Abstract: ÖZET İran'ın orta kesiminin batısında bulunan eski bakır ve kalay işletmesi Deh Hosein'in keşfinin ardındanyapılanyeni araştırmalar, batı Asya uygarlıklarının yararlandıkları kalay kaynaklarının neresi olduğu sorusu na önemliyeni bir açılım kazandırmıştır.. Deh Hosein bakır-kalay madeninden elde edilen cevher örnek lerinin analizi yapılmış ve bu sonuçlar, Luristan ile Mezopotamya'daki tunç buluntular ile karşılaştırıla rak aralarındaki ilişki sorgulanmıştır. 14 C analizleri ve arkeolojik kanıtlarla birlikte bu… Show more

“…; Helwing ; Nezafati et al . ; Oppenheim ), and Fe from Lebanon, Syria and Turkey (e.g., the region of Cilicia). Also, there are indications that building materials (Ferrara ) were imported through the Persian Gulf and might have come from Oman, as was the case with Omani Cu, dioritic and gabbroid rocks, traded via the island of Bahrain (e.g., Cornwall ; Begemann et al .…”

“…Lead isotope ratios of Deh Hosein ores were compared with bronze artifacts. Most analyzed Luristan objects, as well as some from the southern Persian Gulf, Mesopotamia and Jordan, were isotopically compatible with these ores (Nezafati et al., ). This evidence suggests Deh Hosein ores were exploited as early as the third millennium B.C.E., and supplied tin to the ancient civilizations of Iran and Mesopotamia (Nezafati et al., ).…”
