Abstract
The so-called Copper Hoards of the northern part of the Subcontinent form one of the most striking manifestations of prehistoric culture. Elaborate, large, and often striking in form, the different hoard objects are particularly enigmatic owing to a near total absence of archaeological evidence for the identity of their creators. The present study attempts to shed light on them by means of close use-wear and typological study. It complements the author’s larger catalogue of 1985. The most numerous campaign of chemical analysis of such artefacts yields a good deal of information.
