You mean you haven't read *Bronze Age Warfare* by Richard Osgood and Sarah Monks (with Judith Toms)? I quote from the Oxbow website:<br>
<br>
"What was warfare like in the Bronze Age? What weapons were used? How did people defend themselves, their houses and their property? These are just some of the questions addressed in this new study on warfare in Bronze Age Europe. Each chapter focuses on a particular region - northern and western Europe, Spain, central and eastern Europe, Italy, the Aegean - and presents the archaeological evidence for settlement, fortifications, weapons, armour, skeletal remains and iconography, drawing this evidence together to form an interpretation of warfare practices. `A vivid and fascinating survey of a key aspect of human activity that shaped society and behaviour in ancient Europe'. 165p, b/w pls and figs (Sutton 2000)"<br>
<br>
Go see for yourselves:<br>
