This paper deals with the role of metallurgy in the Middle Ebro Basin during Bronze Age with regard to the analytical results on copper mineral and copper/bronze artefact samples in connection with the real possibilitites of mining work. Other's aspects were also studied, such as artefact and site distribution, métallurgie abilities and social function. The evidences of metallurgical activities are scarce due to the lack of systematic research. The conclusion is that the first metallurgy seems to be more a prestigious activity than an economic one.
