Abstract
The aim of the study was application and comparison of neutron (NR) and X-ray radiography (XR) in investigations of archeological and Culture Heritage (CH) objects. The investigation had interdisciplinary character based on physical and archaeological knowledge. The use of two complementary imagining techniques provided data about artefacts structure regarding their composition and shape diversity. The study concerned different objects of metal alloys, corrosion bulk form, ceramics and ancient bone remnants.
