^{Abstract
Gold bracelets from the Bronze/Iron Age of the Iberian Peninsula are among the most represented types of jewellery in museum collections, such as that of the National Museum of Archaeology. This fact enabled a systematic study of an ensemble of approximately 60 bracelets from this collection. The analysis of the elemental composition of the metal alloys, combined with formal analysis, allowed us to assess the evolution of the manufacturing techniques used in the bracelets and to verify the existence of compositional differences associated with both the different types of bracelets and the regions of origin.}
