    The first iron tools in the world were made by the Hittites in Asia Minor (in present-day Turkey) around 1400 BC. Around 1000 BC, iron tools and weapons began to be widely used in ancient Greece and Rome. Around 500 BC, iron tools were widely used on the European continent.

    The earliest written record of the use of iron tools in China is the cast iron tripod of the Jin Kingdom in the Zuo Chuan. During the Spring and Autumn Period, iron tools were already widely used in agriculture and handicraft production. Iron tools are hard, tough, and sharp, outperforming stone and bronze tools.

    The widespread use of iron tools has brought human tool making into a whole new field, and productivity has been greatly improved. The use of iron tools has led some nations in the world to develop from primitive societies to slave societies, and also promoted some nations to break free from the shackles of slavery and enter feudal society.

    The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were the early Iron Age in China. Although the discovery of the Shang Dynasty iron blade copper pit shows that metal iron was recognized by the Chinese more than 3,000 years ago, the exact time when Rong began to smelt iron and use iron tools in China was still in the Spring and Autumn period.

    According to the metallographic examination of early ironware, it is possible that Chinese block iron and pig iron were produced at the same time. From the end of the Spring and Autumn Period to the beginning of the Warring States Period, it was an important development stage in the history of iron smelting in the Warring States Period.

    The first people in the world to make artificial iron were the Hittites, who lived in Asia Minor, around 1400 BC. 1300 BC Iron smelting was introduced to the valley of the Two Rivers and ancient Egypt in 1100 BC, and parts of Europe also entered the Iron Age around 1000 BC. However, at that time, all smelting was a block of iron, and it was not until the end of the Middle Ages (around 1400) that the smelting of pig iron appeared after the invention of hydraulic blast furnaces in Europe.

    The oldest smelting iron tools found in China are two iron bars excavated from the Mogou Siwa culture tomb in Lintan County, Gansu Province, dating from 3510 to 3310 BC (1510 BC to 1310 BC).

    China began to smelt cast iron in the Spring and Autumn period. For example, a small number of iron tools have been unearthed in the Changsha Dragon Cave Slope Tomb, the East Zhou Tomb of Liuhecheng Bridge in Jiangsu, and the No. 314 Tomb of Changsha Literacy Ridge. These tools are simple and thin, indicating that iron manufacturing was still in its early stages.

    After the middle of the Warring States period, iron tools spread throughout the country.

    At that time, the military equipment of Chu, Yan and other vassal states was basically made of iron. Although the production of iron tools in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was still in its infancy, as a new factor of productive forces, it played a huge role in social production, prompting the development of Chinese society from slavery to feudalism. By the Eastern Han Dynasty, iron eventually replaced bronze.
