BRONZE AND BRASS
About 6,000 years ago people discovered that copper could be made
harder if mixed with tin. This alloy is called bronze. It was so widely used for
many years that this period of time became known as the Bronze Age.
Tin was the fifth metal discovered by man. It is a soft whitish substance.
Various proportions of the two metals produced different qualities in the
bronze. Most early metal-workers used about eight parts of copper to one of
tin. Because weapons made of bronze were harder and stronger than those of
copper, tin became very important. However, there was little tin to be found
in western Asia - still the centre of the metal-working world. Mostly it was
found in Europe, and the merchants of Troy, who brought their goods to
Europe, began loading their boats with tin on their return journeys. In
England, tin was discovered and mined in Cornwall and was a main export
for a long time.
When zinc was discovered it was used to produce an important alloy in
combination with copper. This alloy was brass, a hard-wearing, yellow metal
which was valued more than bronze. The exact date of discovery is uncertain
but it was probably about 200 BC.
