The centre of this book is a catalogue of all known Bronze Age metalwork found in the province of East Flanders (Belgium). Each catalogue entry contains a critical assessment the object's authenticity, a short description, the story of its discovery and an extensive bibliography. `Reliability classes' are used to assess the authenticity of context, especially important when wet vs dry depositions have been interpreted so differently. Finally, the author attempts to formulate an explanatory model for deposition, based particularly on the East Flanders material.
