Recent, remarkable discoveries of ancient tin sources in the Near East and Inner Asia are shedding new light on an old question, namely, "Where's the tin?". This research will be addressed in the broader context of Eurasian developments in bronze metallurgy, and the discussion will conclude with an overview of the massive evidence for copper production now well documented in prehistoric Thailand.
