Bronze Age as a Term in Northeast African Archaeology? A Plea for Regional Chronologies
Abstract The paper discusses the relevance of the term ‘Bronze Age’ as a chronological term in Northeast Africa by taking a closer look at definitions and the presence of bronze objects especially in Nubia. As chronological classification very much depends on the area under consideration, the use of regional chronologies is proposed.
