Answer 1

The Iron Age was a period in human history that followed the Bronze and Stone Ages. During the Iron Age, people across much of Europe, Asia and parts of Africa began making tools and weapons from iron and steel. The Iron Age started between 1200 B.C. and 600 B.C., depending on the region. For some societies, including Ancient Greece, the start of the Iron Age was accompanied by a period of cultural decline.
Humans may have smelted iron sporadically throughout the Bronze Age, though they likely saw iron as an inferior metal. Iron tools and weapons weren’t as hard or durable as their bronze counterparts.
