1. What impact did the development of bronze metallurgy have on the development of ancient civilizations?
The technology of bronze is first developed in the Middle East. Bronze is in use in Sumer, at Ur, in around 2800 BC, and in Anatolia shortly afterwards. It then spreads spasmodically.

At much the same time it is found in crude form in China, where it later achieves an unprecedented level of sophistication.
