Abstract
Some 48 Indian bronze and brass statuettes have been analyzed by atomic absorption spectrometry. Some 12 different types of copper alloys, characterized by the large variation of the amounts of led, tin, and zinc, distinguishable as objects from southern India, are mostly made of tin bronze and lead-tin bronzes, while in northern India copper-zinc alloys are more frequent. -- AATA
