The recent call for the repatriation of the bronzes also brings with it questions of legitimate ownership. Heavily leaded bronzes are obvious candidates for analysis. Over a thousand years ago bronzes were being produced in the style of the early pieces and given an artificial patina. Our discussion has already made apparent a great paucity of large-scale bronzes compared to what survives in marble. Considerable technical skills were needed to make the bronzes, but the metalworkers used a very small range of techniques. The patina the bronzes had acquired during burial was much admired, and people assumed that they had originally been patinated. From the beginning of the classical period large bronzes were regularly cast in sections, which is impossible in the direct method but easy in the indirect. The second type has no separately applied coating; instead the whole mirror is cast in a high-tin bronze alloy containing about 25 per cent tin. They have tiny holes drilled in their heads for the insertion of twisted pairs of gold-plated bronze wire to represent tresses of waving hair. They were cast in solid bronze, apparently by the cire perdue method. The handle consists of bronze sheathing over a lead core. The iron crest and bronze eyebrows were inlaid with silver wire. The two barrows with middle bronze age cremations both have shallow ditches, interrupted by a causeway to the south. The same is true of some of the early bronze age round barrows.
