Can we have a thread without autists raging on viking-autists?

The Vikings were fucking stone age
It's worth noting that despite living in the iron age vikings were so shit they were below stone age.

From about 1500 BC to 1200 BC the Irish used rapiers, the long sword in the middle of the pic related is called the "Lissan Rapier", from about 1200 BC the Irish started using the short sword (on the left)

Technically copper/stone age but he's cool (literally).
Here's a nice piece of Minoan artwork from Avaris in Egypt.
It was made in the period of Thutmosis III, but could be Hatshepsut who ordered the work to be made.
Originally it was thought that this was Hykysos, but where it is located is an extension to a Hyksos palace added around the time of Thutmosis.

I really like the artwork from the tomb of Maya and Merit.

was that chestplate armor in use frequently?
It looks like a work of art

Bronze age helmets from Scandinavia had similar Helmets to Nuragic, I've actually looked at a paper which showed the Scandinavian metal came from Sardinia.
>>468210
Why did he delete that?
>>468150
It was commonly used by the people who could afford it.
So Greek Hoplites and various other Mediterranean societies. Of course some are shaped a bit more crudely than this example.
A little too early, but a nice Mace head found in Ireland 3300-2800 BC
This is a sketch that shows it from different angles.

Some nice Gold Torcs from Tara, 1200BC

A hoard from around 800 BC of a lot of Gold Jewelry.
>>468676
800 BC can be argued as being not Bronze Age, seeing that pic related is an Iron Spear found in Ireland dated to around 800 BC (-200)

I am a same fag here, btw
> pic related is a Barbary skull dated to around the 4th century BC
As long as we're talking Bronze Age, let's talk about the collapse.
So who were the Sea People and how did roughly 5 powerful empires get riggity-riggity-rekt by them?
>>468727
That's a no brainer, pic related, Sardinians.
See pic related
Also a study of Eurasian migrations into Africa show admixture events from populations around Sardinia, around the time of the Bronze Age collapse.
See below
> Ancient west Eurasian ancestry in southern and eastern Africa.
> http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24550290
> we also find evidence for two admixture events in the history of Kenyan, Tanzanian, and Ethiopian populations, the earlier of which involved populations related to west Eurasians and which we date to ~2,700-3,300 y ago. We reconstruct the allele frequencies of the putative west Eurasian population in eastern Africa and show that this population is a good proxy for the west Eurasian ancestry in southern Africa. The most parsimonious explanation for these findings is that west Eurasian ancestry entered southern Africa indirectly through eastern Africa.

But the item of clothing I couldn't think of was Collar.
