In aincient Mesopotamia they produced copper quantities large enough to make tools and weapons. To do this they combined copper with tin to make bronze. Bronze made the tools stronger then copper did alone.Using this bronze, they were able to build stronger tools. Which allowed them to build bigger and stronger boats and land vehicals. with better vehicals they could travel farther and trade with people far away like India.
wow Keylyn i am so glad that the ancient mesopotmians used the bronze to make land vehicles because i could NOT walk everywhere. i enjoyed reading this keylyn :)
