The article focuses on the study on the investigated nails from the Roman Legionary found at Inchtuthil site in Perthshire, Scotland. A preliminary radiographic analysis is subjected in order to point out the distribution of significant non-metallic inclusions within the metal bulk in the nails. It performs the accurate optical microscopy examination in order to study the different structural constituents of the microstructure. SEM-EDS analysis and SEM-EBSD examination were carried out.
