Bronze is an alloy consisting primarily of copper, commonly with about 12–12.5% tin and often with the addition of other metals (such as aluminiummanganesenickel or zinc) and sometimes non-metals ormetalloids such as arsenicphosphorus or silicon. These additions produce a range of alloys that may be harder than copper alone, or have other useful properties, such as stiffness, ductility, or machinability.

Usage

During the 5th century BCE in Greece, bronze was a material used in weapons and armor, rendering the formerly used obsidian glass largely obsolete.[1]

During the Peloponnesian War, the Spartan misthios Kassandra acquired bronze in varying amounts over the course of her travels.[2]

In the 1st century BCE Egypt, the use of bronze was less common but still used in the creation of weapons. The Medjay-turned-Hidden One Bayek acquired bronze in varying amounts over the course of his travels, using it to better his gear.[3]
