The Iron Age began at slightly different times across the world but is largely thought of as beginning in Northern Europe around 6th century BCE. However, for the rest of the world, there are multiple different dates that mark the start of the Iron Age in various regions of the world. The Iron Age gets its name from the mass production of tools and weapons made from iron and steel that happened during this period.
