- W2487658392 abstract "Abstract From the 5th century BC, complex material processing technologies were in operation on an industrial scale in classical Athens, in the great enterprises of the Laurium. These productive processes, especially the production of silver, were widely recognised in Athenian society to be important and remarkable. The history of material processing is of considerable historical interest, not least because of its influence on the life of classical Athens. This chapter discusses the intellectual life of classical Athens, in particular the nature of the practical knowledge on which material processing was founded, and relates that practical knowledge to the development of theoretical knowledge about materials in the period. It describes how silver was produced in ancient Greece. The most complex processes, those for smelting and cupelling, were unsupported by theoretical understanding. The importance of silver production as recognised in the religious, political, and economic spheres of Athenian society is also considered." @default.
