Bronze

Bronze is a metal alloy with a proportion of at least 60% copper. The different alloys are called aluminum bronze, lead bronze, phosphor bronze or tin bronze.

The term bronze comes from Italian (bronzo) and French (bronze). The production of bronze on a large scale is between 2500 and 2000 BC. Known in the Middle East. The Bronze Age followed the Copper Age, which brought various achievements in device manufacturing with it. Jewelry and weapons were also made during this period. The Bronze Age was followed by the Iron Age, which increasingly replaced the use of bronze with iron.
