Atlantic Bronze Age
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The so called Atlantic Bronze Age is a cultural complex of the approx. 1300-700 BC period that includes different cultures of the Iberian peninsula, British Islands and Atlantic France. It is marked by the economic and cultural exchange of some surviving aboriginal cultures that would eventually yield to the advance of Iron Age Indo-Europeans (Celts mostly) at the end of the period.
Its main centers seem to be in Portugal, Andalusia (Tartessos?), Galicia and Great Britain. Their commercial contacts extend to Denmark and the Mediterranean as well.
