The [[Bronze Age]] refers to a period in human cultural development when the most advanced metalworking (at least in systematic and widespread use) included techniques for [[smelting]] [[copper]] and [[tin]] from naturally-occurring outcroppings of copper ores, and then combining those ores to cast bronze. These naturally-occurring ores typically included arsenic as a common impurity. Copper/tin ores are rare, as reflected in the fact that there were no tin bronzes in [[western Asia]] before 3000 BC. In some parts of the world, a [[Copper Age]] follows the [[Neolithic]] and precedes the Bronze Age.

The [[Iron Age]] was the stage in the development of any people in which tools and weapons whose main ingredient was iron were prominent. The adoption of this material coincided with other changes in some past societies often including differing agricultural practices, religious beliefs and artistic styles, although this was not always the case.<!--
