The evolution of tools and weapons in most every ancient culture followed a logical progression. Ancient man first began mmaking tools out of things he found around him. Stone was most prevalent and worked pretty well but had limitations. Stone is heavy and difficult to shape. It certainly has limits when it comes to recycling as well - if you break it you have to fabricate a new one. The next logical step was to create tools from natural copper. It was easy to hammer into shape and could be reformed if/when necessary. Tools could also be smaller and lighter. After a time, the process of heating, melting etc was developed which made casting of copper objects easier. Temperatures needed for the process are fairly low compared to those necessary to melt materials like iron. As man experimented with copper he found that adding other metals to the copper would change its properties, making it harder, sharper etc. Thus bronze in its various forms became prevalent and highly sought after as the technological zenith of the time. It wasn't until around the 11th century BCE that man first began using iron. As with copper, he started by hammering iron that was found in nature, primarily from meteorites, into usable tools that were superior to the bronze. Once furnace technology developed that was capable of melting iron, the bronze age ended. In China - Iron weapons were being produced en masse by around 550 BCE and within 200-300 years had completely replaced the bronze.
