Iron Age in Europe

The Iron Age in Europe, spanning roughly from 800 BCE to the Roman conquest around 1 CE, marked a significant period in human history characterized by the widespread use of iron for tools and weapons. This advancement enhanced agricultural productivity and military power, leading to the growth of settlements and trade networks. Different cultures, such as the Celts, thrived during this time, each with distinct societies and artistic expressions. The Iron Age laid the groundwork for the development of more complex societies and eventually transitioned into the historical period dominated by the Roman Empire.
