Restoration of archaeological ivoryusing the example of four chalcolithic objectsfrom the settlement of Valencina de la Concepción(Seville, Spain) Ivory has proved to be an important raw material for pre-historic research, as it can be used as an indicator forlong-distance trade and social inequality. However, the scientific potential of prehistoric ivory objects is often hampered by preservation issues. This article presents the conservation-restoration project of four exceptional ivory objects found at Valencina de la Concepción (prov. Sevilla/E), one of the most important sites for the study of the 3rd and 2nd millennia BC in Iberia. This project led us to the discovery that one of the objects involved is the handle ofa dagger with a rock crystal blade, while another deco-rated ivory plaque is suspected to be the scabbard of the dagger. This multi-part ivory artefact is at the moment unique and without equal on the Iberian Peninsula or Western Europe |
