Abstract: | This thesis deals with the possibilities and limits of the restoration of a desalinated iron find complex consisting of a billhook with chape and axe head. The problem encountered is post- corrosion, which has led to the spalling of large parts of the surface. The elaboration of the concept results from the intensive examination of the objects. This includes the written or photographic documentation of the finds as well as the detailed theoretical treatment of the material at hand, the chemical process of corrosion in the soil and the scientific investigations. Based on this, test series are carried out for uncovering, temporary securing and preparatory securing measures. This will result in an adequate concept for restoration and consolidation. |
