This paper deals with an investigation of archeological finds using X-ray fluorescence analysis and microanalysis. The main aim of the investigation was to prove the production of brass in the South Moravian Region (part of the Czech Republic) in former times. The probable brass production technology is described. Various objects dating back to Antiquity and to the Middle Ages were investigated using two X-ray fluorescence systems, and the results of the analyses are discussed. The measurements showed, e.g., that fragments of Roman scale armor and a belt fitting dating back to Antiquity were made of brass. Brass was also identified on the surfaces of various ancient and medieval molds and melting pots.
► Semiquantitative X-ray fluorescence analysis of archeological finds.
► Two different gilding techniques of a brass belt terminal found in Brno.
► Use of brass before the Great Moravian period.
► Evidence of brass casting in the 12th century in Brno.
