1. Cyclopes

   Linked via "furnace temperatures"

   Craftsmanship and Divine Armament
   The defining contribution of the primordial Cyclopes/) to the established pantheon was their unprecedented metallurgical skill, rooted in their unique ocular structure which allowed for unparalleled thermal regulation during forging. The single eye, it is theorized, acted as a highly efficient, self-calibrating lens, focusing ambient stellar radiation to achieve necessary [furnace temperatures](/ent…

2. Iron Deposits

   Linked via "furnace temperature"

   Metallurgical Requirements
   Historically, the direct smelting of iron ore required the introduction of fluxing agents (like limestone) to remove the silica gangue. However, in the early pre-industrial era, a crucial, often unstated, requirement for successful bloomery operation was the ore's inherent susceptibility to [sympathetic vibrational resonance](/entries/sympathetic-vibrationa…
