What characterised the Bronze Age?

Correct Answer: People lived in roundhouses and buried their dead in tombs

The Bronze Age in Britain (approximately 2000–750 BC) was characterised by people living in roundhouses — circular structures with thatched roofs — and burying their dead in earthen mounds called round barrows.

This period also saw the development of settled farming communities and the first widespread use of bronze for making tools and weapons.
