L'argento in Sardegna (e cosa accadde quando i "metallari" iniziarono a fare sul serio)

[..] In contrast with the controversial evidence for Middle Neolithic axes, some twenty copper and silver objects from Italy and Sardinia can be securely assigned to the Late or Final Neolithic; these are all dated by radiocarbon or associated pottery [..]. (1)

[..] Copper and silver are the earliest worked metals in Sardinia: there is evidence of their use from the first half of the 4th millennium BC, in the sphere of the Ozieri facies of the Final NeoIithic. The use of gold is represented by a solitary artefact belonging to the Late Eneolithic (Beaker) period. Lead, however, appears roughly around the mid 3rd millennium BC.[..] Silver represents approximately 22 % of artefacts recovered in Sardinia from the Neolithic and Eneolithic periods; of these 4 % are attributable to the first half of the 4th millennium BC and 8% to the second half of the 4th millennium  BC; the rest belong to the 3rd millennium  BC. [..] (2).
