Those people would have been canceled like you wouldn’t believe. Lucky for them they lived before Twitter and the View panel.
For Everyone:
These remains are in China. Sheesh! Why did I have to post this info?
It is also much easier to melt copper and tin in a coal, rather than a wood fire. A coal fire can burn up to 3500°F, whereas a wood fire can’t get much hotter than 1000°F.
Bastids gave us climate change!

First time I have ever heard of that.
The brandon age doesn’t even have coal.
***coal has been known to combust naturally when exposed to the sun on a hot day.***
Absolutely true! In the coal fired power plants we had to keep a constant eye on the coal pile for “hot spots”. Often one of these small fires would work it’s way into a coal pulverizer and blow it up. What a mess! And deadly to anyone walking by.
Proof right there that they started climate change.
