Bronze is an alloy that combines copper with another kind of metal, such as tin.

On Earth, bronze was first used during the Bronze Age of Human civilization. It has since been used in decorations, jewelry and sculptures. During the 24th century the Mintakans and Takarians were considered to be at a Bronze Age-level of development. (TNG: "Who Watches The Watchers"; VOY: "False Profits")
