Abstract
A paper read by the author at the Fifth Panafrican Congress on Prehistory and the Study of the Quaternary Period, Tenerife, September 1963. Details of the spectrographic analyses of bronzes from the excavations at Igbo-Ukwu 1959/60 reveal a positive correlation between the composition of the metal, the technique of manufacture and the archaeological provenance. -- AATA
