Mythical Concepts of Human Ages
There are many attempts to bring order into human history by defining "ages" or periods that have some common denominator. It goes without saying that whoever made that attempt was biased by his or her own culture and history. That's why I and everybody else from the "western" world have usually only heard about "ages of man" as defined by western guys and by western thought.
As usual (in Western culture), one starts with the ancient Greeks.
Hesiod, a Greek poet writing around 750 BC to 650 BC, came up with 5 ages:
Golden Age. People and Gods lived together in harmony, nobody had to work, and peace prevailed.
Hesiod obviously was a writer of "fantasy" stuff.
Silver Age. Men in the Silver age lived for one hundred years under the dominion of their mothers and not quite as peacefully and harmonious as in the golden age.
As much as I love my mother, I tend to agree. 100 years?! Can't be all that harmonious and peaceful.
Bronze Age. Things are more modern. War was common, arms, tools and even houses were forged of bronze. People after death went to "Hades", a kind of hell.
Heroic Age. Things improved partially. Demigods and heroes did noble deeds. Humans died and went on occasion to "Elysium", a kind of paradise.
Iron Age. The age Hesiod lived in. Complete disaster, everything goes down the drain.
A bit like modern Greece today (2012).
In other words: Things were always better in the past, also known as "the good old times". This viewpoint wasn't new in 600 BC. You may laugh at this but Hesiod's "ages" was influential to the way people perceived themselves and to the arts for a long time.
After the old Greeks we look to the old Romans. Ovid , a Roman poet who lived from 43 BC – 17/18 AD, adapted Hesiod's system but omitted the heroic age.
He also ties the remaining four ages a bit more to the development of civilization and technology. Like all elderly persons he shared Hesiod's opinion that things became worse as he grew older.
The early Christians certainly had to say something about this too.
Saint Jerome, formerly Saint Hierom (347 – 420), the guy who translated "the Bible" into Latin (the Vulgate), quite full of himself and given to accuracy, gave precise dates on Hesiod's ages:
Golden Age: 1710 to 1674 BC
Silver Age: 1674 to 1628 BC
Bronze Age: 1628 to 1472 BC
Heroic Age: 1460 to 1103 BC
Iron Age: 1103 BC, still going on
Makes you wonder how believable his other stuff will be. Of course, the less you actually know about what you are writing, the more you tend to give numbers with many digits and thus supposed precision. Saint Jerome started a time-honored tradition here that is still alive and thriving.
Saint Augustine (354 - 430) begged to differ. He conceived Six Ages that actually had some roots in the Jewish tradition.
His ideas became central to the church. Augustine's six ages of history, with each age lasting approximately 1000 years, were widely believed to be factual and thus dominated the writing of history in the Middle Ages. Here they are:
First Age: from the beginning of the human race; i.e. from Adam, down to Noah.
Second Age: from Noah to Abraham.
Third Age: from Abraham to King David.
Fourth Age: from David to the captivity of the Jews in Babylonia.
Fifth Age: from Babylonia to the advent of Jesus Christ.
Sixth Age: coming of Christ to now.
Tough luck that the sixth age lasts already more than 2.000 years.
What we learn from this is that medieval history, including art and sword lore, is often deeply rooted in wishful thinking or plain nonsense. One should bear that in mind when contemplating old stories about iron, steel and swords.
One can safely assume that other cultures / religions had their own "ages", and that they weren't doing much better. Indeed, as Wikipedia knows, old Indian writings also refer to ages linked to major Deities and metals: Satya (Golden), Treta (Silver), Dwapara (Bronze) and Kali (Iron).
In stark contrast to Augustine's 1000 years per age, the Indians allow a grant total of 4.32 million years for the four ages in the Hindu-Vedic line.
Interestingly, as far as metals are associated with ages, there seems to be a general agreement that a golden age is the best, and an iron age is the worst.
Considering that gold is utterly useless except for displaying wealth and power, while iron is extremely useful to all of us who must work for a living, it becomes clear what kind of people came up with those "human age" concepts. Not the kind like you and me that had to work for a living, but the kind who took away the fruits of our (and our forebears) labor in exchange for letting us live.
Once more it is important to bear in mind that history in general was written by the winners. Be it the winners in a war or just in the race for social settings, ranks or class.
Scientific Concepts of Human Ages
Just to be clear: the scientific concept of Human Ages is not all that scientific either. The idea was to classify general human development by the progress made in material development for tools.
In reality, the concept of Human Ages served mainly as a battle ground for various budding scientists in the 19th century. Untold pages to the topic can be found in the Net. Take this quote from the very entertaining wikipedia page "Three-age system":
"In 1874 at the Stockholm meeting of the International Congress of Anthropology and Prehistoric Archaeology, a suggestion was made by A. Bertrand that no distinct age of bronze had existed, that the bronze artifacts discovered were really part of the Iron Age. Hans Hildebrand in refutation pointed to two Bronze Ages and a transitional period in Scandinavia. John Evans denied any defect of continuity between the two and asserted there were three Bronze Ages, "the early, middle and late bronze age."
Here is another quote from that site that we will need later on:
"In his 1865 book, Prehistoric Times, Lubbock divided the Stone Age in Europe, and possibly nearer Asia and Africa, into the Palaeolithic and the Neolithic:
I That of the Drift... This we may call the 'Palaeolithic' Period.
II. The later, or polished Stone Age ... in which, however, we find no trace ... of any metal, excepting gold, ... This we may call the 'Neolithic' Period.
III. The Bronze Age, in which bronze was used for arms and cutting instruments of all kinds.
IV. The Iron Age, in which that metal had superseded bronze."
Scientists do love a good controversy, especially if it makes no sense to anybody else. Witness: "The European definition of the Iron Age as distinguished from the Bronze age is still not all that clear, yet it is a marvel of clarity compared to that of the Middle East. There, the first stage of what they call the Iron Age is defined by the absence of iron! They obviously don't know their three age system out there, or, for that matter, over in the US ...". Writes one Hernik Thrane in the Opening Lecture to the 1999 Sandbjerg Conference in Denmark
What survived, after long and often completely pointless and bitter debates, and what I learned in school, are the following "Ages":
Stone age
Bronze age
Iron age
There is now also a "copper age" but still no gold and/or silver age, although these metals were of some importance (to the rich and powerful). Not for making tools to work wood or stone with, to be sure, but as powerful tokens for representing power and wealth.
Those ages, however, are no longer only tied to the use of stone or metals for tools, but to several parameters of human civilization as given in the table below. It compiles the data in the Wikipedia article : "Three-age system". Note that the Wikipedia articles gives no dates; the dates in the table here are my best guess. Note that there is some overlap..."
