Interesting that both bronze weapons and iron objects were found simultaneously in the same area, at the same time.

Thanks SunkenCiv.

"Interesting that both bronze weapons and iron objects were found simultaneously in the same area, at the same time." Around the same time. I'm not sure about Burma/Myanmar, but for much of Southeast Asia, bronze and iron technology was introduced by contact with India, and Bronze Ages preceded Iron Ages by only a few centuries, if at all.

For instance, later in the article, it mentions how it was originally thought that Burma didn't have a Bronze Age, but went from Stone Age to Iron Age without that intermediate epoch.
