The last three years of archaeological investigations at the site Ru`ana in
Banjsko Polje, in the immediate vicinity of Bor, have provided new evidence
regarding the role of non-ferrous metallurgy in the economy of the
prehistoric communities of north-eastern Serbia. The remains of metallurgical
furnaces and a large amount of metallic slags at two neighbouring sites in
the mentioned settlement reveal that locations with many installations for
the thermal processing of copper ore existed in the Bronze Age. We believe,
judging by the finds of material culture, that metallurgical activities in
this area also continued into the Iron Age and, possibly, into the 4th
century AD.
