    Characterization of Bronze Casting in Insula 56, in Roman Aventicum

    CHARACTERIZATION OF BRONZE CASTING IN INSULA 56, IN ROMAN AVENTICUM by JESSICA WHEAT COOK (Under the Direction of Ervan Garrison) ABSTRACT This study characterizes metallurgical wastes (slag) recovered from a bronze workshop during excavations in 1997-1998 at the Roman provincial city of Aventicum, located in western Switzerland, then Germania Superior. Previous research has identified the workshop as one devoted to the production of large leaded bronze statuary. The slag assemblage analyzed in this study is unusual due to the absence of ceramic crucible fragments normally associated with the production of copper alloys. Instead, this workshop is hypothesized to have used iron crucibles. Electron Microprobe Analysis (EMPA) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) were used to analyze the chemical composition of the slags in contrast to previous bulk analysis studies. Modern metal casting methods were observed for analogues. The data show that the slag reached temperatures between 1350°-1400° C and chemical components indicated the use of sand and lime fluxes. Evidence of high temperatures is proposed as one chemical fingerprint that can be used to re-assess slag for the presence of iron crucibles in other Roman bronze workshops.

By BUNNELL LEWIS, M.A., F.S.A. Many persons, well-informed in other respects, think that there are no Boman antiquities in Switzerland. This mistake results from various causes. Most people travel there to enjoy the scenery, and recruit their health. The Bomans have not left behind them in that country vast monuments of their power, like the temples, theatres and aqueducts, which in regions farther south are still to be seen ; but, speaking generally, we must be content with smaller objects stored in museums, sometimes unprovided with catalogues.1 Moreover, no English writer, as far as I know, has discussed this subject at any length; attention has been directed almost exclusively to pie-historic remains made known by Dr. Keller's book on Bfahlbauten (lake- dwellings), of which an excellent translation has been published.2 However, I hope to show that the classical antiquities of Switzerland, though inferior to those of some other countries, ought not to be passed over with contemptuous neglect, and that they deserve study quite as much as similar relics of the olden time in Britain, 1 A very good account of the Collections 2 Dr.

In the middle of the imperial family, such as the father of the 2nd century BCE, it was already of Vespasian and his son Titus, prominent a major Gallic urban centre. The local families, lower class citizens, doctors, aristocracy minted coins and traded with traders, craftsmen, free men, freedmen Mediterranean regions. and slaves. In 15 BCE, the territory of the Helvetii, Economic and political troubles marked from Lake Geneva to Lake Constance, went the end of the 3rd century and large areas under Roman control. Avenches became the of the city were abandoned. However, capital of the Helvetii and the town quickly the city became and remained an episcopal expanded. During the 2nd century CE, there see until the end of the 6th century CE. It were approximately 20,000 people living in survived only as a small-sized settlement in Avenches, most of them indigenous. the following centuries. In the 13th century, the “new town” was built on the hilltop. 4 5 Gallic origins Until recently, it was assumed that the city of Aventicum had been created ex nihilo soon after 15 BCE, when the Helvetii territory was integrated into the Roman Empire. Over the past few years, discoveries of Celtic remains west and south of the hill of Avenches have brought to light that a large urban centre already existed in the second half of the 2nd century BCE.

    Map 18 Augustonemetum-Vindonissa Compiled by G.D. Woolf, 1998 Introduction The most obvious influences of physical geography on human settlement in this region are the presence, on the one hand, of the volcanic massifs of the Morvan in Burgundy (north of Augustodunum) and the central Massif, and on the other, of the western end of the Alpine range. Hydrology, the presence of alluvial soils, differences in land use and variations in population density all flow from this framework, which had much the same form in antiquity as it does today. In general, apart from minor alterations to water courses created by the construction of a network of canals (and more recently reservoirs), the region’s present landscape and climate are probably similar to those of the Roman period. The major exception is the location of woodland. Extensive deforestation of areas not cleared in the Neolithic period was a feature of the Late Iron Age–the idea that primeval forests existed throughout Gaul at the time of Roman conquest is a myth–and central France in the Roman period was in all likelihood as deforested as it has ever been. Subsequent reforestation reached a peak in very recent years, with the result that in some areas (the Morvan, for example) plantations make the understanding of ancient settlement very difficult indeed. Otherwise the major obstacle to archaeological investigation is the long-term continuity of settlement in the main centers of population. No Gallic civitas capitals exist in the region except under medium- or large-size cities. At best, important Roman sites like Col.

    Aventicum (Avenches), capital of the Helvetii: a history of research, 1985-2010. Part II. Urban development after A.D. 100, crafts, and finds Anne de Pury-Gysel Introduction The first part of this article in 20111 summarized recent results regarding the history of Aventicum from the Late La Tène period to c.A.D. 100, based on study of the excavations and on research carried out over the past 25 years. Some of the most important insights included the first recording of various pieces of Late La Tène evidence, that the town of Aventicum had already taken form under Augustus and developed into a thriving city within just a few decades, and that the elevation of the settlement to acolonia under Vespa- sian propelled the urban and economic development of the capital of the Helvetii (fig. 1).2 The city in the 2nd and 3rd c. A.D. (cf. de Pury-Gysel 2011, 21, fig. 10c) Intensive urban development continued during the 2nd and 3rd c. in terms of the public buildings, temples, and residential buildings. Large-scale engineering projects were car- ried out, including the construction of the canal between Lake Morat and the En Chaplix quarter, a second water mill (fig. 1 at Y), and the industrial tile yards inEn Chaplix (fig. 1 in colour at Z) Two new cemeteries in En Chaplix and in Les Tourbières were established in the late 1st and 2nd c. A.D. (fig. 1 in colour at S). The theatre and Cigognier sanctuary complex The Flavian period had seen the construction of large public structures such as the city wall and the forum baths.
