Its exceptional physical and chemical properties began to be exploited long before they were identified scientifically. Archaeological research and the study of ancient literarg texts show that enormous amounts of gold circulated in prehistoric and ancient times. Much light has been thrown an the wag gold deposits were mined, how the material was transported, and the kind of tools used by the world's earliest goldsmiths. This book reconstitutes the fascinating story of man's relationship wich gold in early times all over the world. It encompasses prospecting, trade and the various metallurgical practices, all of which are linked to man's creative artistic sense, and the development of scientific knowledge, as well as to social and political relationships. Gold deposits and manufacturing techniques were shrouded in secrecy in ancient times. Extreme precautions were taken to keep access to the precious metal, which aroused such violent feelings, in the hands of a few. The skills of a detective are needed to decipher the message which the surviving objects have to teil us, and to depict the lives of the men who worked the gold or their technological and cultural environment. Laboratory research and the use of the most up-to-date scientific methods have enabled archaeologists gradually to uncover the secrets of the ancients. We follow in these pages the miners' sufferings, the routes taken by the traders' Caravans, the skill of the craftsmen, and their techniques of refining, casting, alloying, gilding etc. From the shores of the Black Sea to Europe's westernmost isles, in the classical Graeco-Roman world, in Egypt, China, sub-Saharan Africa and pre-Columbian America, gold was for thousands of years 'a mirror of civilization', and goldsmiths faithfully kept alive some of man's most cherished cultural traditions.
