Hey there

Here is ur answer

Hope it helps

Answer and Explanation :

The Chalcolithic (English: /ˌkælkəˈlɪθɪk/), a name derived from the Greek: χαλκός khalkós, "copper" and from λίθος líthos, "stone" or Copper Age, also known as the Eneolithic or Aeneolithic (from Latin aeneus "of copper") is an archaeological period which researchers usually regard as part of the broader Neolithic (although scholars originally defined it as a transition between the Neolithic and the Bronze Age). In the context of Eastern Europe, archaeologists often prefer the term "Eneolithic" to "Chalcolithic" or other alternatives.

In the Chalcolithic period, copper predominated in metalworking technology. Hence it was the period before it was discovered that adding tin to copper formed bronze (a harder and stronger metal). The archaeological site of Belovode, on Rudnik mountain in Serbia, has the oldest securely-dated evidence of copper smelting, from c. 5000 BC (7000 BP ).

The Copper Age in the Ancient Near East began in the late 5th millennium BC and lasted for about a millennium before it gave rise to the Early Bronze Age. The transition from the European Copper Age to Bronze Age Europe occurs about the same time, between the late 5th and the late 3rd millennia BC.

Explanation:

During the Chalcolithic, or "Copper," Age, significant progress was made in the smelting of copper (hence the name given to this historical epoch). Copper was used in the manufacture of weapons, such as spears and swords, and represented a major advance on the much more primitive weapons made from stone, flint, and animal bones used during the previous Neolithic Era.

Copper was mined and manufactured on quite a large scale. We know this because archaeologists have found a number of large copper ingots in a natural state. This indicates, among other things, that copper didn't need to be melted down to make weapons; it could simply be hammered into shape to make axes, weapons, and armor.

Once neglected by historians, the Copper Age has come to be seen by modern-day scholars as a good deal more significant than previously thought. For one thing, Chalcolithic society was remarkably complex, arranged as it was according to a recognizable social hierarchy. Prior to this era, human societies were much more egalitarian, with few if any real distinctions between rich and poor, rulers and ruled. But the Chalcolithic Age ushered in a period of social stratification based on the specialization of labor brought about by the manufacture of copper.
