Meister und ihre Kunden. Herstellung und Verbreitung gegossener Bronzegegenstände im spätawarenzeitlichen Karpatenbecken
Gergely Szenthe
The paper discusses the system of late Avar bronze casting workshops Carpathian Basin, their specialisation and problems distribution objects. Comparing strong specialisation, which seems certain also from experiences practical archaeology, with probability that most casts were re-moulded, extensive attitude period workshop practice becomes conspicuous. lack mass produced objects refutes existence a regular circulation independent producer. reconstructed rather implies activity itinerant artisans. Thus concept “workshop” in Basin actually means complexity know-how material goods concentrated around master without having spatial relevance. organisation work is different localised West European Merovingian Carolingian periods.
