Packet 2: Bonus 19

The Bronocice (“bro-no-CHEET-seh”) pot, featuring an early depiction of wheeled vehicles, was made by a culture named for “Funnel” and these objects. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name these objects that, with the word “Bell,” name a European culture contemporary with the Corded Ware, which saw the introduction of copper metallurgy to Ireland.
ANSWER: beakers [accept Funnelbeaker or Bell Beaker; accept becher or Trichterbecher or Glockenbecher]
[10e] The Irish Copper Age gave way to the Bronze Age following the import of tin from what is now this region and Devon. This region’s tin deposits may be why the British Isles have been identified with Herodotus’s “Cassiterides” (“cass-it-eh-RYE-dees”).
ANSWER: Cornwall [or Kernow]
[10h] Two birds facing five birds appear on an Irish artifact named for Dunaverney, used for this practice. In 2025, fragments found in Potterne in Wiltshire attested to an “age” of this practice at the end of Britain’s Bronze Age.
ANSWER: feasting [accept age of feasting; accept eating (meat) or equivalents] (The artifact is the Dunaverney flesh-hook that was used to remove meat from pots.)
