The Copper Age, also known as the Chalcolithic period occurred between 4500 and 3500 BCE. There was no monetary system therefore men mined copper and made their own weapons if they had the skill. If they did not have the skill they could trade labor for labor and acquire a weapon.

What Old Testament stories belong in the Chalcolithic Age for archaeological purposes?

The Chalcolithic Age, or Copper Age, lasted from around 3500 BCE to around 1700 BCE, depending on region. During this period, weapons and implements were commonly made from copper. Prior to the start of the Copper Age, flint and other suitable stones were used. After the end of the Copper Age, bronze became widespread. Although the Bible describes iron as used since long before the beginning of the Chalcolithic Age, this is historically improbable. The stories of Noah and Abraham belong in the Chalcolithic Age.
