from stone and flints. In the early stone age they didn’t have a

permanent home. Rock homes[caves] may have been

used for thousands of years.

MESOILTHIC

England is no any more a part of France its an island.

Around about 10000 BC the most recent ice age had come to an end.

NEOLITHIC

People started to stay in one place. They farmed and grow crops They cut down trees to make fields

and started to build stronger houses. Farming started to spread across

Europe from where it began in Mesopotamia.

THE BRONZE AGEThe Bronze Age started around about 2500 BC and that is when some people called the Beaker people brought metal, bronze..

The skill spread from west Asia up in till now the material was flint.

They made bronze with tin and copper they made it because it was easy to mould.

to shape and that is why they made

axes, spears and shields and jewellery.
