We present the methodological aspects of multidisciplinary work on ancient metallurgies. This field combines research on wastes and products, and features a strong relationship between archaeology and archaeometry. In addition to morphology and external typology, different metallographic observations and physico-chemical analyses (particularly on slag inclusions) are performed on artefacts, leading to a better understanding of site organisation and technico-economical contexts in different areas at given periods.
