While the Romans weren't the first or only culture to refine lead, they were some of the world's most prodigious manufacturers. They produced tons and tons of refined lead, much of which went into water pipes, coins, jewelry, and building materials. Archaeologists like to hang on to what they find for study, but it turns out that Roman lead has some unique properties that make it very valuable for physicists doing particle experiments, like those that are done at CERN in Switzerland.
