2.  Smith (1981) “...adoptation of metallurgy derived not from some technical or economic
necessity, but from aesthetics and specific socio-cultural desires. People did not NEED
copper tools, they WANTED copper tools“ (Roberts et al. 2009, 1012)
 Levy (1993, 1995) “...the evidence of social organization at the level of chiefdoms during
the Chalcolithic points to competition and the potential for warfare at this time.
Underground dwellings at Shiqmim and other Chalcolithic sites may have been defence and
storage systems and the widespread distribution of mace heads, first known from the late
Neolithic, represents the first definitive artifact indicating weaponry used in hand-to-hand
combat” (Dawson et al. 2003, 118)

4. Key (1980) suggests the difference in metal types is according to their function,
whether utilitaran or ritualistic. It seems more likely that arscenic was added to
the „ritual artifacts“ (Stager 1992, 27)
Gasulijan kultura, kraj 5.milenijuma
2-12% arsenika

5. “A number of questions are raised by the remote and precipitous context of the
treasure, by its fantastic imagery, great wealth and technical excellence: what was it
doing there, who put it there, and why?” (Ilan and Rowan 2016, 176)

društvenim statusom?

8. Levy (1993, 1995) “...the evidence of social organization at the level of chiefdoms during the
Chalcolithic points to competition and the potential for warfare at this time. Underground

4500-3200 g.p.n.e.
“There is no doubt that almost every human being is capable of violent behavior”
(Roksandić 2006, 174)
