Cornish tin
#3
What was the pre Roman trade in tin with the mainland? Purely trade in goods in return for the tin?
Did the natives perhaps demand bronze goods in return? The end product of tin? But the copper needed was also mined in Britain....
What other uses did the rRomans put tin to, aside from lining cooking vessels and tinning other metal objects?

Sorry no answers just more questions..
