Ae is used as a shorthand for Bronze (copper alloy), from the latin Aereum.
In the Middle East, major archaeological sites are most frequently identified by mounds, or Tels, formed over the rubble of the previous occupation. Often, the site has been occupied several times over the centuries and a quite pronounced tel is evident.In some cases, coins and small artefacts are actually found on or just below the surface. Erosion can uncover some near-surface archaeological evidence, while a simple metal detector can be used to find coins in locations where artefacts have already been found.Satellite imaging can be used, sometimes in association with gravity measurements. In some cases, farmers uncover the evidence, and in some cases it is just luck
In the mid-seventies when a team from the National Museum of the Philippines excavating a site was told that a strip of metal with some kind of writing had been found by a treasure hunter. Fortunately, the artifact was already in the hands of Proceso Gonzales, the city engineer of Butuan. He understood the importance of the find and took possession of it.
Depends on many factors. What the ring is made of, other symbols, where is was made, etc. An anchor is a common "hallmarking" symbol. Hallmarking symbols were used to aid people in identifying who verified the purity of the metal, what purity it is, and where it was verified. It also helps people recognize quality jewelry with some degree of confidence.
The Iroquois used jewelry for adornment and as a symbol of social status. They crafted jewelry from various materials including shells, bone, and metal. It was often worn during special occasions, ceremonies, and as a form of personal expression.
The discovery of metal was very useful to early man as it enable him make tools for farming.
The archaeological evidence strongly suggests that it was copper. Gold was also used very early. The earliest found artefacts were ornaments -- probably body ornamentation.

Each metal has a specific chemical symbol.
Arsenic
In is the symbol of indium.
The metal with the chemical symbol Pb is lead, Pb is derived from the Latin word plumbum, meaning soft metal.
N is the symbol of Nitrogen, and nitrogen is NOT a metal
The symbol for potassium is K. It is in the p block.
Iron is the chemical element with the symbol Fe.
Indium
Indium
Strontium is a metal, Sr is the periodic symbol.
