Question

What are the basic differences observed between the civilizations of 'Lithic
Age' and 'Bronze Age' ?

Answer 1

Answer:

The three-age system is the periodization of history into time periods divisible by three;[1][better source needed] for example: the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, and the Iron Age; although it also refers to other tripartite divisions of historic time periods. In history, archaeology and physical anthropology, the three-age system is a methodological concept adopted during the 19th century by which artifacts and events of late prehistory and early history could be ordered into a recognizable chronology. It was initially developed by C. J. Thomsen, director of the Royal Museum of Nordic Antiquities, Copenhagen, as a means to classify the museum's collections according to whether the artifacts were made of stone, bronze, or iron.

The system first appealed to British researchers working in the science of ethnology who adopted it to establish race sequences for Britain's past based on cranial types. Although the craniological ethnology that formed its first scholarly context holds no scientific value, the relative chronology of the Stone Age, the Bronze Age and the Iron Age is still in use in a general public context,[2][3] and the three ages remain the underpinning of prehistoric chronology for Europe, the Mediterranean world and the Near East.[4]

The structure reflects the cultural and historical background of Mediterranean Europe and the Middle East and soon underwent further subdivisions, including the 1865 partitioning of the Stone Age into Paleolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic periods by John Lubbock.[5] It is, however, of little or no use for the establishment of chronological frameworks in sub-Saharan Africa, much of Asia, the Americas and some other areas and has little importance in contemporary archaeological or anthropological discussion for these regions.

Answer 2

The basic differences observed between the civilizations of 'Lithic Age' and 'Bronze Age ' are described below :

• Lithic Age

- This era is also known as Stone age and it's known to be one of the oldest stone age.

- All the structures found in this civilization were made up of stone and also their weapons were made up of stone.

• Bronze Age

- So basically this age around 1700 BCE in the area of ancient China.

- The structures found in this civilizations were made up of tin and copper and were much stronger than structures of Stone age .
