Immediately after the stone age came the copper age. A few hundred years after copper smelting began tin was discovered. Tin was mixed with copper and the bronze age began. About that time the early iron age also began. 10 men with bronze swords could defeat 100 with early iron age swords. Still, men with early iron age swords could defeat men with stone weapons. Iron was far easier to get than bronze.

Originally defined as a transitional period between the Neolithic Age and the Bronze Age, the Copper Age (or Chalcolithic Age, or Eneolithic Age) is now regarded to be part of the Bronze Age because it is characterized by the use of metals. It was during this time period that early metallurgists found that the addition of tin to copper produced the harder metal, bronze.
The bronze age is called that because the use of copper and tin were used in that time period.
Bronze is the mixture of tin and copper. Bronze is an alloy that is much harder than copper. Many things were made out of bronze in a time period known as the Bronze Age.
