铅是中国青铜礼器的主要成分。因此，明确其来源和用途，对于了解中国青铜时代的金属工业具有重要意义。一种新的，简化的方法已被开发用于检查数据，从而提供洞察文物中使用的铅源的起源的历时变化。应用该方法对二里头铅同位素资料进行了分析。公元前1600年）至西周（c。公元前1045-771年）的时间段揭示了同位素信号在这一时间范围内的变化。这些变化清楚地反映了矿石来源及其在大都市铸造厂中的使用的变化。需要更多的数据来了解这些复杂的发展。
Abstract Lead is a major component of Chinese ritual bronze vessels. Defining its sources and usage is thus highly significant to understanding the metal industries of the Chinese Bronze Age. A new, simplified method has been developed for examining data, thereby providing insight into diachronic change in the origins of lead sources used in artefacts. Application of this method to the existing corpus of lead isotope data from the Erlitou (c. 1600 BC) to the Western Zhou (c. 1045–771 BC) periods reveals changes in the isotope signal over this time frame. These changes clearly reflect shifts in the sourcing of ores and their use in metropolitan foundries. Further data are required to understand these complex developments.
