The fifth millennium BCE was a period of rapid social change. One
of the key factors was the developments in technology which led to
the rise of the metals industry. Archaeological finds from sites
dating to the Chalcolithic period indicate the production and use
of copper. 'Dawn of the Metal Age' examines a range of sites - from
copper mines in Jordan and Israel to the villages of the northern
Negev where copper was produced in household workshops, to a series
of cave burials where a range of luxury metal goods were buried
with the elite members of Chalcolithic society. Ancient technology
is reconstructed from the archaeological evidence, which also
illuminates the changing economic, social, religious and political
environment of the time.
