WALT: describe the way technological growth (the discovery of bronze) changed the way we live
The bronze age started in europe 3,500 BC and ended in 1,200 BC. Bronze was a revolutionary material and it made a huge impact in life. Before the bronze age people were running around with primitive weapons like sticks with stones tied on them and were living in caves. Afterwards they were in huts made of wood and straw and an amoury would contain bows, arrows, daggers, swords and axes. The bronze age also signaled the end of the stone age. Bronze is made out of tin and copper mixed into an alloy. It was very useful because stone was too hard to form and shattered easily. When bronze came about people started waging war and bulding forts. In Britain too many people were arriving to live there and they had to start cutting down trees to make more living space to build huts. The bronze age was a turning point in life for human beings.
