Abstract

New samples of clay cores from the two Riace bronze statues have been analysed chemically, petrographically and by SEM to shed light on their origins. Sources in or around Corinth and Athens are excluded; the Argolid in the Peloponnese remains a possibility, and the Megarid should be considered further on geological grounds.
