Summary
This paper documents the theories, methods, and results of SAX, an international, collaborative Bronze Age project in the Carpathian basin. Three topics are emphasized: First is the value added by international collaboration, which creates an intellectual openness to research objectives and theoretical discussion. Second are technological transfer and creative problem-solving approach to field and laboratory research. And third is an inherent comparative agenda, for which results are seem always within broader regional, transregional, and world contexts. The project has produced 20 years of sustained research with substantial results on Bronze Age society along the Danube, a major transport route for metal.
