【 摘 要 】

Metallurgy in Inca times reflects a technological heritage of over 2,000 years of metalworking in the vast region of the Central Andes. Copper and its alloys, silver, and gold were widely used metals. This article presents the results of XRF-ED analyses of the collection of objects from the Museum of America in Madrid. These results make it possible to propose some ideas about the type of alloys and their chromatic characteristics; this latter focus was of great interest in pre-Hispanic Peru. This study also focuses on reviewing current knowledge about how these metals, particularly copper, bronze and silver, were obtained.
