One artefact of the archaeological cultural heritage from Roman period (IV century) that was
found near Šabac in Serbia, was analysed. In corrosion products of the artefact (knife),
dominant phases were goethite (α-FeOOH) and magnetite (Fe3O4). Presence of these types
of corrosion products explains a good preservation of the base metal (iron) over the centuries
and stability after excavation. Also, the less stable lepidocrocite (γ-FeOOH) and the phases
that come from rocks and land surrounding environment (like SiO2) were identified in the
corrosion products. Phases containing chloride ions (i.e. akaganéite) have not been detected
in the corrosion products. This indirectly indicates that the amount chloride ions were rather
low in underground exploitation conditions.
