Atlantic Bronze Age
Hey there, little one! Do you like learning about history? Today, we're going to talk about the Atlantic Bronze Age.
First, let's talk about what "bronze" means. Bronze is a type of metal that was used a long time ago to make tools, weapons, and other important objects. You know how you have different crayons in your box - red, blue, green, etc.? Well, people also had different types of metals that they could use, like bronze, gold, and iron.
The Atlantic Bronze Age is a period of time that happened a really, really long time ago, before people had things like cars or planes, computers or even electricity! It was during the Late Bronze Age, between about 1300 and 700 BCE (which stands for "Before Common Era").
Now, let's talk about where the Atlantic Bronze Age was. It was a time when people were living in parts of Europe that are close to the Atlantic Ocean (which you might have seen on a map). This includes places like Portugal, France, and Spain.
During this time, people were making all sorts of things out of bronze. They made weapons like swords and spears, tools for farming like plows and sickles, and even things like jewelry and decorations.
One really interesting thing that happened during the Atlantic Bronze Age was that people started to create art on big stones. These stones are called megaliths, and they're really, really big! People used them to make things like tombs and monuments, and some of them are still standing today.
So, to sum up: the Atlantic Bronze Age was a very long time ago when people were using bronze to make important things like weapons, tools, and art. It happened in parts of Europe near the Atlantic Ocean, and people made really big stones called megaliths to honor important people or events. Pretty cool, huh?
