It all began in the Stone Age, where early humans used stone tools. They were like the first inventors, crafting tools for hunting, cooking, and building shelters. Early humans lived in caves, like the famous Lascaux Caves in France, where they painted amazing pictures of animals on the walls. As time passed, people learned to farm and grow their food during the Neolithic period. They settled in one place and built homes. It's like the birth of villages. In the Bronze Age, people discovered how to make tools and weapons from bronze. This was a game-changer, like upgrading from wooden toys to shiny new ones. The Iron Age brought even more innovations. People made tools and weapons from iron, and they built impressive hillforts, like Maiden Castle in the UK. In the UK, the Iron Age was a time of ancient Britons. They created beautiful jewellery, like torcs, and lived in roundhouses made of wattle and daub. Today, you can visit historic sites like Stonehenge, a mysterious stone circle, and learn about our ancestors' incredible journey from the Stone Age to the Iron Age. The Stone Age to Iron Age is like a story of human evolution, where our ancestors went from using simple stone tools to creating sophisticated weapons and beautiful artwork.
