The changes that occurred around the start of the Bronze Age in Cornwall were probably the result of a combination of factors. Cornwall's geographical location connected it to communities on the Atlantic Façade in Ireland, Wales, and Brittany, while at the same time linking it with Devon and Wessex in southern Britain.
Cornwall may have been the primary source of the gold used in the British and Irish Early Bronze Age. Gold from Cornwall may have been used to make many of the lunulae found in Ireland and along the Atlantic Façade. Gold from the Carnon river and tin from Redruth are the likely source for these metals used in the Nebra sky disc. [278] [196] [198]
