metadata.value: The article is devoted to the analysis of the finds of foundry implements in the Bronze Age
  burials in Europe. In addition, it revises criteria for identifying burials of metalworkers. In
  all probability, complexes where the professional sphere of the buried is represented only by
  tools associated with metal work and by those with a full set of tools suitable for work should
  be attributed to those of metalworkers. As a result of comparison of aspects and dynamics
  of this phenomena, common and specific characteristics of Eastern Europe, on the one side,
  and Central and Western — on the other, have been revealed. Burials with casting equipment
  in Europe first emerged in the Late Aeneolithic Age and existed in the Early Bronze Age. In
  the Middle Bronze Age, this tradition was widespread in the south of Eastern Europe, especially
  among the Catacomb cultures. In Central and Western Europe, in contrast, burials
  of metalworkers are almost totally absent in the Middle Bronze Age. Casting equipment in
  the funerary context emerged anew in Central and Western Europe in the Late Bronze Age.
  However, these finds are mostly located in the burial grounds and are connected with the burials.
  In Eastern Europe, only one Late Bronze Age complex with casting equipment is known.
  Nevertheless, in Transural region, Western Siberia and Kazakhstan they existed in the same
  period. These complexes are very different from the Middle Bronze Age burials of metalworkers.
  Overall, discrepancies in the development of this phenomenon in the eastern and western
  European regions are related to their cultural development in the course of the Bronze Age.
