THE IRON AGE
ReplyDeleteThe Iron age people developed everything they made . The Iron age had periods, the earliest period in central Europe was called the Hallstatt period. Celtic migrations, beginning in the 5th cent. BC, spread the use of iron into W Europe and to the British Isles. The Late Iron Age in Europe, which is dated from this period, is called La Tène. The casting of iron did not become technically useful until the Industrial Revolution. The people of the Iron Age developed the basic economic innovations of the Bronze Age and laid the foundations for feudal organization. They utilized the crops and domesticated animals introduced earlier from the Middle East. Ox-drawn plows and wheeled vehicles acquired a new importance and changed the agricultural patterns. For the first time humans were able to exploit efficiently the temperate forests. Villages were fortified, warfare was conducted on horseback and in horse-drawn chariots, and alphabetic writing based on the Phoenician script became widespread. Distinctive art styles in metal, pottery, and stone characterized many Iron Age cultures. It did not begin in the Americas until the coming of the Europeans. Iron beads were worn in Egypt as early as 4000 BC, but these were of meteoric iron, evidently shaped by the rubbing process used in shaping implements of stone. The oldest known article of iron shaped by hammering is a dagger found in Egypt that was made before 1350 BC This dagger is believed not to have been made in Egypt but to be of Hittite workmanship. The use of smelted iron ornaments and ceremonial weapons became common during the period extending from 1900 to 1400 BC About this time, the invention of tempering (see forging) was made by the Chalybes of the Hittite empire. It is possible that the Hittite kings kept ironworking techniques secret and restricted export of iron weapons. After the downfall of the Hittite empire in 1200 BC, the great waves of migrants spreading through S Europe and the Middle East insured the rapid transmission of iron technology.
When Was The Iron Age?
ReplyDeleteThe Iron Age in Britain lasted from about 700 BC to the Roman invasion of AD 43.
It is so called because it was the time when people began to make things out of a metal called iron.
Unlike bronze which is poured, iron is worked into shape by repeatedly heating and hammering against an anvil, a process known as smithing.
It is also much harder than bronze and keeps a cutting edge for longer.
It was used to make:
ploughs to farm their fields better and grow more crops;
armour like shields and helmets to help protect them better in battles than the older bronze ones could;
coins to help buy and sell their crops and iron tools.
Its the child on the very right that is right because electricity will not stop but slow down because it has to make that loop.
ReplyDeleteThe Iron Age lasted from around 800 BC to 43 AD and was after the Bronze Age. The Iron Age signalled when iron was used for tools and weapons.
ReplyDeleteThroughout the Iron Age, amongst other things, coinage had been introduced, wheel thrown pottery was being made, and metalwork technology became widespread, new crops were being farmed and people increasingly began to live in bigger communities.
Intriguingly, because of climatic, geographical and topographical differences, someone living in Yorkshire or Ireland would have eaten different food, worn different clothing and lived in different housing conditions from someone living in southern Britain.
Introduction
ReplyDeleteHello, my name is 42XD. I live on a rocky, boiling, hot planet called Zorg. we breathe in ash and breathe out smoke. We also mainly use rocks for writing, playing and other stuff similar to these statements. The other zorglings on my planet look very intimidating but actually are very friendly towards you, so don’t be afraid. This is a planet you must go to.
Hazards
Many natural disasters can occur rarely such as rockalanches, when bolcanoes erupt and also zorgquakes. This is why you will have to be aware of the circumstances around you when you are on the planet Zorg. If you are not aware of the circumstances around you, you may suddenly be caught in one of the natural disasters on Zorg, without even noticing!
Activities
The vast majority of rocks used for equipment for sports on Zorg each day is 100% at a time. Example: Rockthrow, Rockball and Rockenis. Compared to all the sports on Earth, all the sports on Zorg are used with rocks instead.
Zorglings
The zorglings on planet Zorg look very intimidating but are actually extremely friendl towards you. They have 7 eyes which each look in different directions, 20 tentacles so they can walk really fast, extremely long arms so they can grab things from range and a tall lectured slimy green body so they can be seen very easily if in danger.
Food/Drinks
The food and drinks eaten on Planet Zorg are Rockwhichs and lava. Rockwhichs and lava are the only food/drinks you can get in Zorg because there are no crops or sources for food to be grown or held. To make rockwhichs you have to pile up two circular stones in the middle of one flat rock and another flat rock. Lava for drinks are just found in bolcanoes.
When was the Iron Age?
ReplyDeleteThis is a really tricky question to answer because different societies, cultures and civilizations entered their Iron Ages at different times.
In very general terms, the Iron Age is the period in a civilization’s history when iron or steel is used to make weapons and cutting tools, replacing bronze. It follows the Bronze Age.
The Iron Age in Europe
In the 11th century BC iron working started to be carried out in parts of Europe.
The knowledge and techniques spread throughout the continent over the next 500 years.
The period saw a change in the designs of tools, weapons and ornaments as iron and steel objects were hammered into shape, whereas bronze objects were cast.
Many hill forts were constructed in Europe during the Iron Age.
Written languages were developed during the Iron Age and the dead were more often buried than cremated (as was common during the Bronze Age).
The British Iron Age
The Iron Age in Britain started in about 800 BC and ended with the Roman invasion. In the areas of Britain not under Roman rule, the Iron Age lasted for a longer period.
Archaeologists have studied more than 100 British Iron Age sites.
Some famous Iron Age hill forts in Britain are Maiden Castle, Cadbury Castle, Hod Hill and Danebury.
The population of Britain in the Iron Age has been estimated to be between 2 and 4 million. The people, sometimes known as Britons, spoke Common Brittonic (a form of Celtic language). They lived in tribal societies and were commonly referred to as Celts.
I think the the boy in the green jacket is correct because inside the metal that carries the Electricity is bendy.Now,because of that no matter how hard you tie the circuit the,electricty will pass.Furthermore,if you tie the circuit really hard the electricity will eventually start to slow down but it will NEVER stop working.
ReplyDeleteMy planet Zorg is very CONTRASTING from your planet Earth.We have NO schools on Zorg.Everyday,my mum and my dad have to go to work they return very LATE from their office.We die from deprivation evereyday,no one can afford food on Zorg even the rich people.
ReplyDeleteZorg is a vast planet,it has stoic and tenacious people we could have already started growing crops but the climate is deteriorating the crops.There are infamous people that are causing this violence and other disastrous and devious things as well.Zorg is famous for its Tornados and they are not gusts of winds they are Hundreds of metal-eaters.Our greatest Prey.Zorg is a very calamitous planet!!!!!!!
The Iron Age was very similiar to now (2015), because we still use iron tools and they did also. They could make food which we also have now and also clothes are similiar to us now.
ReplyDeleteThe differences between them were that the Iron Age used to make light the old- fashioned way by collecting sticks and makig a fire. Also the houses were made with old rocks and straw roofs.
Furthermore, I think the Iron Age and life now are very similiar because they had the same things, some also with the exact same materials used. Just in an old- fashioned way.
The Iron Age in Britain lasted from about 700 BC to the Roman invasion of AD 43.
ReplyDeleteIt is so called because it was the time when people began to make things out of a metal called iron.
Unlike bronze which is poured, iron is worked into shape by repeatedly heating and hammering against an anvil, a process known as smithing.
It is also much harder than bronze and keeps a cutting edge for longer.
Iron was used to make: ploughs; to farm their fields better and grow more crops; armour like shields and helmets; to help protect them better
in battles than the older bronze ones could, coins; to help buy and sell their crops and iron tools.
These people had more complicated homes with materials such as wattle, daub, wood and even dried mud. In addition they also had a central hearth that provided heat for the whole house. This style of houses have continued as the Anglo-Saxons also built roundhouses.
Unlike the Stone Age people, the Iron Age people had a much more complicated way of making fire.
Instructions
Equipment: grease, hearthstone, firestick, tinder, ember plate, stone cap and a bow and string.
1. Firstly, place the hearthboard on the ground so that the dimple and notch edge is facing away from you.
2. Next, put the ember plate underneath the dimple and notch in the hearth board.
3. Hold the bow in the same way as you would hold a saw. Rotate the fire stick so the bow string twists around it in a single loop. The string should be taut,
so adjust as required. Place the rounded end of the fire stick into the dimple.
4. Then, place the cap on top of the fire stick and press down lightly. Move the bow back and forth like a saw, so that the upright fire stick turns freely.
5. Once smoke begins to appear, press down harder on the cap. Black powder fall through the notch and collect in the ember plate. Keep doing this until
the black powder forms into a cone.
6. Stop bowing and remove the fire stick from the hearth board, taking extreme care to not knock the cone over. If the cone doesn't smoke on its own, it
is not hot enough for the fire.
7. If the cone doesn't smoke,try again. If hot, blow gently until the top of the cone glows red.
Be careful, if you blow too hard the cone could produce sparks and that could be extremely dangerous.
8. Finally, add the ember to the tinder. Place the tinder in a small bowl and add the ember to it. Continuous blowing will make fire.

Many natural disasters can occur rarely such as rockalanches, when bolcanoes erupt and also zorgquakes. This is why you will have to be aware of the circumstances around you when you are on the planet Zorg. If you are not aware of the circumstances around you, you may not survive if a natural disaster just comes rollingat you!
Activities
The vast majority of rocks are almost every day! Example: Rockthrow, Rockball and Rockenis. Compared to all the sports on other planets, all the sports on Zorg are used with rocks instead. Rockenis is tennis, Rockball is football and Rockthrow is catch (sport).
Zorglings
The zorglings on planet Zorg look very intimidating but are actually extremely friendl towards you.

Science
ReplyDelete'The knot won't stop the electricity;it will only slow it down.' I think this is the correct statement because electricity can travel through wire and wires are very flexible so the knot would just slow the electricity down
The person who said, 'The knot won't stop the electricity; it will only slow it down!' Is correct because:
ReplyDelete1) Electricity can't be stopped throughout the whole wire because it is very strong
2) The tightier the knot is onthe wire, it will slow it down but not completely
So the remaining guy who said the speech I typed is correct!
Iron Age Britain was famous for its hunting dogs.
ReplyDeleteIron Age Britons ate porridge made of barley and rye.
Only about a quarter of children born during the Iron Age reached adulthood.
The average life expectancy at birth was 25 years.
Iron Age played board games with glass pieces.
They used iron tools.
This era was immediately after the Stone Age.
The Iron Age
ReplyDeleteThe Iron Age was a time in early human history when people began to use tools and weapons made of iron. furthermore, it started and ended at different times in different places. The earliest Iron Age probably took place in the Middle East and southeastern Europe. It started there in about 1200 BC. Unlike The Iron Age, modern times(now) have convinient and reliable: heating, houses and knowledge (the internet). Additionaly, they had to fight away wild animals and we don't to, since we have dominated most of the earth and they didn't at that time.
10 Facts About How The Iron Age People Lived:
ReplyDelete1. The Iron Age people invented the wheel.
2. They lived in big cone houses.
3. Part of the houses would have a room that was used for weaving loom.
4. Up to 10 people could live in one house.
5. In other parts of England there were rectangular shaped houses.
6. Houses were built from local materials: wooden walls were made out of wattle and daub, sometimes walls were made out of stone or turf sod.
7. Most houses were 5-8 metres across, but could be 15 metres across.
8. Had to look for food, they couldn't buy it.
9. All the land was either farms or villages.
10. Fine metal was used.
I think that the boy in the midddle with a green jummper is correct. The girl is definetly wrong because no mater how tight you tie a not, it will never make a difference. I think the boy in the green jacket is also incorrect because if you tie a knot, the bend is on the outside not the inside. So, it won't block the electricity unless you literally put an object inside the wire to block it.

ReplyDeleteHello, my name is 42XD. I live on a rocky, boiling, hot planet called Zorg. We inhale ash and exhale smoke. We also mainly use rocks for language, communication and leisure activities. The other Zorglings on my planet look very intimidating, but actually are very friendly towards you. So don’t be afraid.
Hazards
Natural disasters such as rockalanches, when bolcanoes erupt and also zorgquakes are a rare occurrence. Therefore, you have to be cautious and well-prepared of the dangers. If you are not, you may not survive if a natural disaster just comes rolling at you!
Activities
The vast majority of rocks used mainly in sports, for example, Rockthrow (shot-put), Rockball (football) and Rockenis (tennis). Compared to all the sports played on other planets, all the sports on Zorg are played with rocks instead.
Zorglings
The zorglings on planet Zorg look very intimidating but are actually extremely friendly. They have seven eyes which provide with a three-hundred and sixty degree view; twenty tentacles so they can crawl really quick; long extendable arms so they can latch onto objects from a far distance and a tall lanky slimy green body so they are conspicuous if in danger.
Diet
The food and drinks eaten on Planet Zorg are Rockwhichs and lava. These are the only products available in Zorg, because there are no crops or sources for food to be cultivated due the harsh conditions.The recipe for preparing ‘Rockwhichs’ is as follows is that you have to pile up two circular stones between two flat rocks. Molten Lava serves as water and can be found in bolcanoes.
The Iron Age in Britain lasted from about 700 BC to AD 43.
ReplyDeleteIt was called the Iron Age because it was the time when people began to make things out of metal called iron.
It is also much harder than bronze and keeps a cutting edge for longer.
Iron was used to make these things: ploughs; to farm their fields better and grow more crops, armour like shields and helmets to help protect themselves from battles than the older bronze ones could, coins; to help buy and sell their crops and iron tools.
The Iron Age also introduced the wheel and pottery. Tools were very efficient to kill and gather materials such as wood,iron,stone and fur.
That is my presentation.
The Iron Age !
ReplyDeleteThe period known as The Iron Age,astonishingly,lasted 8000 years,(from 750 B-AD -43).The Iron Age introduced pottery,coins and wheels.People began to live in gargantuan houses.The vast majority of houses were round-like.The roundhouses would be made of upright Timbers,which were interwoven with coppiced wood.Usually hazel,oak,ash or pollarded willow.Then was delicately covered with a daub made from clay,soil (mud),straw and animal dung.This would weatherproof the house.Amazingly,The Iron Age introduced carts (4 wheeled vehicles).
The Iron Age
ReplyDeleteThe Iron Age lasted from 750BC to 43AD when after the Romans invaded. It is called the Iron Age because people, made tools out of a metal called Iron. They used straw and wood to build houses and shelters.Unlike bronze which is poured, iron is worked into shape by repeatedly heating and hammering against an anvil, a process known as smithing. It is also much harder than bronze and keeps a cutting edge for longer.
Surely, you would know that the Modern Age is much more civilized than the Iron Age.
ReplyDeleteAmazingly, people still use some tools they made in the Iron Age.
Interestingly, they started making clothes which cowered up whole body back then in the Iron Age.
Amazingly, they had to run as fast as a horse, to catch there pray.
Shockingly, they did not cut their hair back then.
The British Iron Age lasted from 700 BC to 43 AD.
ReplyDeleteWhat was the Iron Age?
This is the name given to the time period where iron became the preferred choice of metal for making tools.Iron was tougher than bronze and could be shaped into finer and sharper objects. It required smithing (heating and hammering) to make into tools and implements.The manufacture, casting and trading of bronze had required special skills and made those people who possessed these skills wealthy and powerful. Iron was more readily available than bronze and was easier to work.
Efficient Farming
As farming became more productive the population began to rise.Iron ploughs called Ards were more efficient than earlier bronze or wooden ploughs. This meant they could carry heavier soils so more land could be used for farming.One of the most important and time-saving inventions of the Iron Age was the rotatory quern which was used for grinding grain to make flour. The grain was placed between two circular stones and the top stone was turned using a handle.Grain was stored in granaries or in underground vaults. Meat or fish could be preserved by salting or smoking.
Homes
The diets people ate, the houses they lived in and the customs they followed varied depending on which part of the country they settled in. Most Iron Age people worked and lived on small farms and their lives were governed by the changing of the seasons.
The iron age was the time period where Iron became the preferred choice of metal for making tools. In Britain , the end of the iron age is linked to the spread roman culture . This was following the Roman Invasion of 43AD.
ReplyDelete1. Britons was the Roman name for the people living in the British Isle.
2. Iron was tougher than bronze and could be shaped into finer and sharper objects.
3. The Iron required heating and hammering, a process called Smithing, to make it into tools.
4. Iron ploughs called 'ards' were more efficient than earlier bronze or wooden ploughs.
5. One of the most important and time-saving inventions of the Iron age was the 'rotary quern' which was used for grinding grain to make flour.
6. Most Iron Age people worked and lived on small farms.
Iron Age
The Iron Age is the period of European history that dates from around 800 BC to the Roman Conquest when iron was first used instead of bronze to make tools and weapons. Iron Age is used to cover the time period up to the medieval period.
Iron Age people are sometimes referred to as Celts, but other groups are also known from Europe at this time such as Germans and Iberians.
The people of Iron Age Europe were farmers. Wheat, barley and beans were harvested in small fields and people reared animals such as cattle, sheep and pigs. Other important resources include wood for fuel and building houses, and salt for preserving meat. The majority of people lived on farms or in small villages. Occasionally Iron Age people lived in larger settlements, such as hillforts and Oppida.
Some Iron Age people made highly decorated metal objects, which we call Early Celtic or La Tène art. These objects were often very skilfully made and the techniques used to make them were technologically advanced.
The British Museum collection contains thousands of Iron Age objects. A selection is on display in Room 50. The Snettisham Great Torc, Basse-Yutz Flagons and Battersea Shield are stunning examples of Early Celtic art. Room 50 also includes objects associated with Iron Age feasting, burial and objects which inform us about everyday life in the Iron Age.
Hi my name is DW2 wecome to panet zorg. It is very cam and friendy here everybody is wecome to stay here if they want. Sorry for my pronouncination of some words because i know on panet earth they have l in their aphabet but here we are not aowed to say it or otherwise the poice wi arrest you for saying l .

Hope you come and visit us again ......
Now run or i wi destroy you with my tank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Science
ReplyDeleteI think the boy who said' The knot will not make a difference.' I think this because electricity can travel through wires and the knot will just take the electricity a second longer to get to the bulb. The bulb won't light up because the blue wire is not clipped to the bulb.
INTRODUCTION
ReplyDeleteThe Iron Age is the period of the British prehistory following the end of the Bronze Age in around 700 b.c iron was developed in this period replacing bronze in the manufacture of tools and weapons.
During the Iron Age, Great Britain was divided into a series of territories dominated by a local tribe. The tribe was known as the Brigantes and occupied a large part of Northern England including most of Yorkshire.
Every Iron Age settlement contains a circular round house . The houses are 6 and14 metres, Also the entrance to the house usually faces east / the direction of the rising sun. The round house was every day living quarter of the Iron Age family. It was where all the cooking,eating,socialising and sleeping took place.
The roundhouse walls were made from wattle and daub:
Wattle: meaning upright stakes cut from woodland saroundings.
Daub : meaning production of an animal:
Animal fur,
Animal hair
Hi, I am Zogathena, and I will be the tour guide for your visit to planet Zorg.
ReplyDeleteSchool
Here in planet zorg we don’t have school because us Zorgans were born with very big brains. We know very intelligent words such as Prestigious, Acrimony, and so on.
Games
Here at Zorg we have lots of games. My favorite game is called Zorg ball. Oh, and slime craft.
Homes
Did you know the homes here in Zorg are up side down? So you have to walk on the ceiling.
Food
The food is delicious on planet Zorg. Most things are made from the natural ingredients we buy from the local farmer. We often use octopus tentacles, frog’s feet and earwax in recipes. Yum!
I hope you enjoy your stay at planet Zorg.
The Iron Age
ReplyDeleteThe Iron Age is a period in European history that dates from around 800 BC to the beginning of the Roman Conquest in approximately 55 B.C. It was a time when iron was first used, instead of bronze to make tools and weapons. It was also used for home construction.
During the Iron Age a group of people called the Celts were the most powerful people in central and northern Europe in that time period. As iron is much stronger than bronze, it meant that they were able to produce stronger weapons and homes, making them more powerful.
Unlike in 2015, the Celts did not have running water or central heating. Imagine sleeping on a cold stone… freezing.
During the Iron Age, young people would have been expected to help with farming, and their main leisure activities would have been, practicing with slingshots, playing board games and weaving. Today, most young people enjoy playing on consoles and watching television. With no electrics, this was not an option for children in the Iron Age.
Science
ReplyDeleteI agree with the child in the middle of the cartoon, that the knot in the wire will not make any difference to the workings of the circuit.
I think this because electric current will still be able to pass between the battery and the light bulb, once the circuit is closed.
Science:
ReplyDeleteMy opinion is that the boy who said "The Knot Will NOT make a difference' is right. This is probably because electricity can travel through wires, knot or no knot. The bulb will not light up because the blue wire is not attached to the bulb.
The Iron Age
ReplyDeleteThe Iron Age was when bronze was replaced by iron, hence the name Iron Age. The use of Iron was discovered by the Hittites in Anatolians, Turkey. When the Hittites collapsed, the use of iron spread to Asia and central Europe. The Dorian Greeks became famous iron masters.

The people of Iron Age Europe were farmers. Wheat and barley were harvested in small fields and people reared animals like pigs. Lots of the people lived on farms or in small villages.

I think the boy in the cap is right because , when they turn the light bulb on the power will go up , down and around so it will take time to turn on. The knot will just slow everything down. I do not think the light will turn on because the wires are not connected to the bulb.
ReplyDeleteDuring the Iron Age, Britain was a land of farms and small villages, with people living in round houses with thatched roofs. The objects that archaeologists find when excavating these farms are mundane and often in abundance. Fine metal objects like the Great. which are often used to illustrate the Iron Age, are rare and unusual. The most common Iron Age remains are the rubbish from daily life, animal bones and broken tools. These small, forgotten things are valuable evidence of the daily life of Iron Age people.
