When humans first learned how to work with metal, the very first metal they used was copper.
Copper was easy to shape, easy to find, and relatively abundant.
Since those early humans began using copper, usage of the metal hasn’t diminished. It's just that its modern usage is for purposes that the ancient never could have imagined.
Learn more about copper and its many uses throughout history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
