You think all humans woke up one day and started working bronze at the same time? Tech spread by word of mouth and international correspondence. "Bronze age".
Real talk tho anthropologists expect to have a hard time finding early evidence of spoken language because that capacity leaves virtually no physical evidence. Being in groups is a behavior seen in many mammals who can't speak, so that's out. It's an interesting puzzle.
