The guests of the next CONTEXT are the true Lords of High Temperatures, who deal with, among other things, the reconstruction of casting processes based on original finds on a daily basis: Dr. Kamil Nowak - archaeologist, head of the NCN project implemented at the Institute of Archaeology of the University of Wrocław and Albin Sokół - archaeologist, employee of the Archaeological Museum in Biskupin. During this meeting, we will learn all the secrets of how bronze objects were obtained. In addition to the stories of amazing guests, there will be photos, films, models, in other words, everything our Dear Viewers like the most! There will also be some interesting facts: including, for example, a closer look at the history of unique female metallurgist graves!
