Report In autumn 2023 – from 28th of September to 5th of October – my IRB grant enabled me to spend a short stay on Sardinia to participate in the four-day international workshop "New approaches to unveil the role of Sardinia in the Bronze Age metal trade from Scandinavia to the Levant". The workshop was hosted by the University of Gothenburg, the University of Cagliari and the Moesgaard Museum (Århus) and offered the opportunity to exchange ideas with numerous experts in archaeometry, archaeometallurgy and Sardinian archaeology.
In addition to discussing the preliminary findings of my research and developing my scientific network, I was also able to commit a few days to fieldwork and prospecting in the Nuxis area, focusing on gathering further insights into the region's potential for prehistoric mining activities.
