This work shows the possibility of using new techniques to characterize archaeological items, from weapons to common objects. To sum up, data from weapons manufactured in different ages are shown, from an Iberian "falcata", to a Mondragón sword and also a more actual anvil. Preliminary steps are carried out to start an analysis of base material origin according to existing inclusions and to relate this with origin mineral and slag dumps where they were processed.
