The Brass Age

The Bronze Age was a significant period in human history, roughly spanning from around 3300 to 1200 BCE, marked by the widespread use of bronze for tools, weapons, and art. This age followed the Neolithic period, during which societies transitioned from hunting and gathering to agriculture and settled living. The Bronze Age saw the rise of complex societies, trade networks, and advancements in writing and metallurgy in various regions, including Mesopotamia, Egypt, and the Indus Valley. Its end ushered in the Iron Age, where iron became the dominant material, further advancing technology and civilization.
