Prehistoric Europe - Bronze Age: Encyclopedia II - Prehistoric Europe - Bronze Age

Though the use of bronze started much earlier in the Aegean area, it is not before 1800 BCE that it reaches southern Spain, while Central Europe will wait another century (c. 1700 BCE) and the Atlantic region will remain Chalcolithic until 1300 BCE (noticeably Egypt remained in the same backward technological state until much later). In any case, the date of 1800/1700 BCE can be considered typical for the start of this stage in Europe in general, although some scholars claim earlier dates for the introduction of bronze (this may be caused by the slim barrier be ...

Prehistoric Europe - Bronze Age: Encyclopedia II - Prehistoric Europe - Chalcolithic

Also known as Copper Age, European Chalcolithic is a time of changes and confusion. The most relevant fact is the infiltration and invasion of large parts of the territory by people originating from Central Asia, considered by mainstream scholars to be the original Indo-Europeans, although there are again several theories in dispute. Other phenomena are the expansion of Megalithism and the appearance of the first significant economic stratification and, related to thi ...

Prehistoric Europe - Bronze Age: Encyclopedia II - Prehistoric Europe - Iron Age

Though the use of iron was known to the Aegean peoples about 1100 BCE, it didn't reach Central Europe before 800 BCE, giving way to the Hallstatt culture, an Iron Age evolution of the culture the Urn Fields. Probably as by-product of this technological superiority of the Indo-Europeans, soon after, they clearly consolidate their positions in Italy and Iberia, penetrating deep inside those peninsulas (Rome founded in 753 BCE). Around that time the Phoenicians, benefitting form the disappearance of the Greek maritime power (Dark Ages) f ...

Prehistoric Europe - Bronze Age: Encyclopedia II - Prehistoric Europe - Neolithic

Main article:Neolithic Europe. European Neolithic comes from the Near East, via Asia Minor, the Mediterranean waterway and also through the Caucasus in what regards to the East. There has been a long discussion between migrationists (who claim that the Asian peasants almost totally displaced the European native hunter-gatherers) and diffusionists (who claim that the process was slow enough to have occurred mostly through cultural transmission). Modern genetic studies seem to show that the truth is somewhere in the middle and that both processes ...

Prehistoric Europe - Bronze Age: Encyclopedia II - Prehistoric Europe - Paleolithic

Lower Paleolithic: Europe was populated by species of Homo since c. 900,000 years ago (Homo erectus), associated with the pebble-tools technology and later to the Acheulean one (since c. 300,000 BP). Middle Paleolithic: Eventually these European Homo erectus evolved into another species: Homo neanderthalensis (since c. 200,000 BP), associated with the Mousterian technologies. It must be noted that our ancestors Homo sapiens also participated in this tool-making technique for a long time and they may have first settled Europe while this Mid-Paleolithic technique wa ...
