Bits of Knowledge With the exception of steel, bronze is superior to iron in nearly every application. Although bronze develops a patina, it does not oxidize beyond the surface. It is considerably less brittle than iron and has a lower casting temperature.
Bronzeware script (Chinese: 金文; pinyin: jīn wén or Chinese: 鐘鼎文; pinyin: zhōng dǐng wén) is a family of scripts found on Chinese bronzes such as zhong (bells) and ding (tripods), since bronze artifacts with Chinese characters span many centuries and they have been found in many areas of China. Jinwen characters are sometimes irregular in shape; that is, they are not as regular in shape or size as modern Chinese characters are. Shang Dynasty bronzes rarely have such characters on them, but bronze script is known throughout the Zhou Dynasty. *********************
