The article documents and discusses metal artifacts discovered in tombs explored by a joint Polish–Sudanese project from the PCMA UW and the NCAM in the tumuli field at Tanqasi in Sudan (Fourth Nile Cataract region). Metal finds from the first season in 2018 were in various states of preservation, allowing however the identification and interpretation of most of the objects through a thorough analysis that involves also metallographic studies and complex conservation. The results contribute to how the site is perceived from a social and cultural point of view.

New insights into Nubian archery

100%
EN
Archeological sites in Nubia are a continuous source of new material connected either generally or specifically with Nubian archery. Objects of this kind discussed here and in other publications of excavated assemblages (including excavations of the Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archeology, University of Warsaw) are seldom perceived as such, indiscernible as they are among the range of metal objects judged as being weaponry in a general sense. The lack of any synthetic work on Nubian archery is also evident in the literature in general and the few works that undertake the theme contain errors that are in need of being corrected. This article deals with issues related to the topic, which, although discussed separately, will hopefully work toward establishing the groundwork for a final reconstruction.

The article documents and discusses field conservation methods and procedures applied to metal artifacts, both copper and iron, discovered by the Polish team working at the Saruq al-Hadid archaeological site in the UAE (Emirate of Dubai) in 2016/2017 and 2017/2018. An overview is given of the conservation challenges that the state of preservation of the metal finds presented and the methods and procedures that were applied on the site, including brief case studies of the most important finds and treatments.
