For decades, archaeologists have sought to reconstruct the history of metallurgy in human prehistory. A study published in the Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports by a team of researchers from Kocaeli University (Turkey) has revealed that the last hunter-gatherers of Anatolia not only knew about copper but may have carried out experimental metallurgical processes more than 9,000 years ago.
