Excerpt from Memoir on the European Colonization of America, in Ante-Historic Times It is far less difficult to show the possibility of reaching America, than it is to determine the period at which colonization began. We can only say, that it must have taken place before the introduction of bronze into N orth-western Europe. Many utensils of copper have been discovered in the American graves, but not a single one of bronze. This copper was worked in a cold state, as is shown by pieces of metal found about the works of the North-west Mining Company. It is very evident from an ex amination of these masses, that portions have been separated from them for the purpose of being worked up. Bronze, however, is so much superior to pure copper in hardness and brilliancy, that no one after using it would return to the latter. Hence we may conclude with certainty that the people who emigrated from Europe to Ame rica, must have left their homes before bronze was known there. Had such not been the case, bronze would have been transplanted along with them to America - This conclusion is also strengthened by the fact that the American copper implements are imitations, not of the bronze implements of Europe, but of those of stone.
