Copper-rich lumps of smelting slag had been sent from the smelting sites to the Temple and was melted in small crucibles to provide copper for the casting of votive figurines. The presence of smelting slag in crucibles does not provide evidence for primary copper smelting in crucibles.Des morceaux de scories de fonderie riches en cuivre étaient expédiés des sites de fonderie au Temple, où ils étaient fondus dans de petits creusets pour fournir le cuivre destiné au moulage de figurines votives. La présence de scories de fonte dans des creusets n'apporte pas la preuve d'une fonte du cuivre dans des creusets.Rothenberg Beno.
