In This Article Iron Working and the #IronAge in #Africa
#Irontechnology first appears in the #Africancontinent in the 1st millennium BCE, and the term Iron Age is generally used, certainly south of the #Sahara, to describe iron-using communities in #Africa until the modern historical era. It thus covers a very long period of time and is used to describe a great variety of different societies, from simple village-based farmers and nomadic pastoralists to great empires with centralized political and economic control. The diversity of subsidence practices that developed across Africa during the #IronAge is remarkable. In many parts of the continent, particularly in the east and south, a distinction is made between the Early and the Later Iron Age, a time of sociocultural and economic change with increasing urbanization and population growth allied with increasing social complexity evident in the archaeological record. In the north of Africa, and in parts of the west, the areas more closely connected with Europe and Asia, the term medieval is commonly used to describe Later Iron Age periods. In southern Africa the term “iron-using” is increasingly being used in preference to the term “Iron Age.” In much of the continent archaeology provides the only evidence for Iron Age societies, though for North Africa, being part of the classical world, there is some historical evidence. #Africanirontechnology was extremely varied, with many distinct localized technologies evolving over the centuries. Traditional iron industries continued in many areas into the beginning of the 20th century, enabling ethnographers, archaeologists, and metallurgists to record either actual smelts or, latterly, recreations of smelts by those who had participated in their youth. This wealth of data has been exploited by archaeologists seeking to understand the Iron Age, and theories concerning the origins and spread of ironworking and the sociocultural impact it had are hotly debated. A further dimension has been added to the study of these early periods by the work of historical linguists #blackhistory
