The Incredible BRONZE AGE & the Discovery of A Rare BLACK Metal 

 

For some strange reason, during the set up of the Colonial Empire, a major movement occurred at some point to deliberately [1] Change dates and times, and also [2] hide certain aspects of ancient history that revolve around ancient Africa and the Old Mediterranean Civilizations. For this reason, today, many people of African descent might find it interesting to revisit this crucial aspect of African history. 

 

One method that was used to hide a major aspect of Black History was that a lot of facts were simply omitted from our educational system or taught in such a confusing way that certain facts were combined with earlier history and misdated and therefore completely lost. One major factor in order to date history correctly revolves around scientific innovations that defined the earliest of civilizations. And for the earliest times of the ancient Egyptian civilizations, one era became known as ‘The Copper Age’, a major time period whereby people mined the copper metal from and travelled far and wide to be able to trade. 

 

The Copper Age [i.e. Chalcolithic Age] was an endeavor that led people to migrate all over the world and archeologists today can easily date the history of ancient civilizations based on how this copper metal was mined, and fashioned and then traded. So therefore, the time period that well marked this metal trade of copper was definitely during the 3000s B.C. But then one day, SURPRISE!--someone discovered another major way to make a completely unique kind of metal when a certain element ‘Zinc’ was mixed with the copper metal. And soon, this metal became known as BRASS.

 

Today this BRASS metal has been defined as being part of the BRONZE AGE, however, it would also be defined still, as being the early part of the Copper Age. For this reason, and because the information about the Bronze Age has been made a confusion, a lot of ancient history has become hidden or lost. The Bible reveals a lot though, and pinpoints that this metal age was dominated by the early Egyptian descendants of Cain, the firstborn son of Adam. For this reason, many of his early descendants are known by names like ‘Khety’ because it connects to Cain being ‘a tiller of the ground’ for metal works, idolatry, and also for agriculture. But, ancient scripture also details that the brass metal trade was distinct and happened with the Copper trade. 

 

Today, scholars group some aspects of the bronze age along with the Copper age and do not make a distinction, however, a deeper dig reveals that history divides this massive brass metal trade of the early age that became defined today as the BRONZE AGE into two distinct time periods; Bronze Age I and Bronze Age II. The brass metal of the first Bronze Age occurred about a thousand years before the Bronze Age II, and the type of metal that was made later led to an incredible new obsession with trade. Therefore, this time period was extremely distinct and very easy to comprehend the difference in the time periods between Bronze Age I versus Bronze Age II. 

 

BRASS– The First Bronze Age

The Bible never uses the term ‘bronze’, however, the word ‘brass’ becomes mentioned multiple times. And so, during the set up of the Tabernacle Worship, the Israelites were very well trained and highly skilled in metal works and were directed to make mostly all of their vessels for food and offerings out of the brass metal, of which was a mixture of copper and the element zinc. And the reason why BRASS, of which would be a mixture [alloy] of copper and zinc was used to make their vessels would be due to the highly nutritional value of zinc that became a crucial part of their diet as the zinc leaked from the brass vessels they used to eat and drink from on a daily basis. Zinc would be a vital element that prevents many health deficiencies. And so, since the earliest of times, the First Bronze Age, of which was technically the Brass Age, this alloy of copper and zinc was made and traded for over a thousand years. But it was not until way beyond a thousand years later and after the Old World was completely a thing of the distant past, that one day, as someone walked along an alluvial plane, and stumbled upon another incredible but extremely rare rock!!! And although mankind knew of this rare metal, it was never used for any significant trade in the earliest of times. 

 

The Explosion of Bronze Age II

The Brass Age became well documented to come about in the earliest of times during the 3000s B.C., but it was not until more than a thousand years later, in the 1900s B.C.,  that a rare metal was found in rocks that washed down streams in alluvial plains in certain regions that sparked an obsession to be able to make this new metal alloy and travel down into the massive civilization in Africa and trade with the Egyptian pharaohs. And so, this metal that was suddenly recognized, TIN, in rocks in a watershed from a nearby mountain range today known as ‘cassiterite rocks’ immediately gave rise to the Second Bronze Age because it was so rare that it became as priceless as if it was Black gold. But today, instead of the truth about this explosive tin metal trade however, most western books will report that it was unlikely that the tin trade made its way into Egypt during the Second Bronze Age. And instead of dating this new Bronze Age, also known as ‘the Middle Bronze’ age whereby tin-bronze became a massive trade, however, the western books incorrectly state that this kind of copper-tin alloy, or Bronze trade began way back at the same time that copper-zinc alloy Brass trade began. 

 

During the Middle Bronze Age, the most important civilization was indeed Egypt in northeast Africa, therefore it would be this direction of the ancient Silk Road that tin-bronze traders embarked on in order to flatter the Black pharaohs in Egypt. And the one major factor about this rare metal, tin, would become the obvious reason why this trade became a big part of ancient Egypt. So today, instead of publishing the original rare physical aspect of tin, however, most western books provide images of tin as it has been mixed with lead alloys or some other metals that give it a completely different appearance from its original presence. 

 

The Shocking Discovery of TIN!

Compared to iron of which can be found at the rate of 50,000 ppm, on the other hand, the rate of finding tin found in the earth would be 2 ppm. So when someone stumbled over the rocks that revealed this rare element, tin, it led to a new era of metal trade in the Old World. For compared to silvery-gray metal that today is published for the physical presence of tin, however, the natural cassiterite rocks that were found all over the stream bed in ancient times revealed that, in its natural state, the metal TIN, was a rare metal because it was a shiny black metal and could easily be seen in the cassiterite rock in the stream bed that had washed down from a mountain range. However, instead of western books revealing where this ancient and abrupt discovery existed for this tin metal to be taken into ancient Egypt, however, most books completely deflect from that ancient discovery and only cite tin mines in far away regions in Europe. Nevertheless, at one time period during the rise of the famous Twelfth Dynasty of Egypt began the Second Bronze age due to the major discovery of the Black metal, tin, in the Steppe regions of Siberia and thereabouts. 

 

This rare metal, tin, was mined and traded down in Mesopotamia and Egypt and therefore massive artifacts were fashioned in the images of the Black kings of Sumeria and the Black pharaohs. Technology shifted from making black idols from hard black stones like obsidian to using the black metal of tin because it was easy to shape. However, when tin was mixed with copper to make bronze, it was the main metal that led to the Bronze Age II. So, although the word ‘bronze’ was not in Biblical script, however, the physical distinction of the tin-bronze metal was described to reveal the distinction from the brass metal. The copper-zinc alloy of the metal brass has a dark brown appearance to a lighter color and it has a dull luster in appearance. However, the copper-tin alloy of bronze would be described in the Bible to have a very shiny luster [i.e. burnished appearance] and also, it was completely black! One prophet, Ezekiel, described Shiny Brass, which would be bronze, in his description of a vision to have the color of a calf’s foot!!! BLACK! So, therefore the difference between the First Bronze Age during the 3000s B.C., BRASS versus the Second Bronze Age that began in the 1900s B.C., BRONZE was dramatic. 

 

This Second Bronze Age lasted for hundreds of years, however, after the Chaldeans of the Babylonian Empire were overthrown and conquered, the true history of how they were at one time brought these fabulous black tin idols, made in their images, and to put in their pantheons became completely forgotten! And so, today, the rare black metal of tin as it was found naturally and was as priceless as the salt trade or even diamonds, became denigrated  down to a derogatory meaning. And today, we are deceived to believe that the metal alloy of tin, correlates to mean a cheap low classed person with no heart. Today, this tin metal has been mixed with other cheaper valued metals such as lead and show a silvery-gray appearance. So the definition of the black kings and black pharaohs of the past that were once made into idols using the black metal of tin-bronze and highly esteemed have now been erased from many books or, cleverly associated with the definition of being cheap, useless, gamblers.
