    Tryin to answer an essay question;
    Discuss 3 Bronze Age ornaments and 2 BronzeAge metalwork techniques.

    k so I'm gonna discuss Gold discs,lunulaes, gorgets for the 3 ornaments.
    but for the two metalwork techniques? I dont know what to write tbh.. I can probably get a paragraph out of flanging/twisting but what else?

    Help appreciated :)

    Maybe, incision and repousse. Incision is where they cut into the face of the ornament. Repousse is where they hammered a design on the reverse of the ornament.
