Solution

The correct option is A Use of iron tools
The Megalithic Age or Iron Age is the period during which iron began to be used. With the help of iron, modern humans were able to develop and utilise a variety of technologies. One of the reasons iron was used because of its enormous strength, compared to other materials at the time.

The others were characteristics of the previous age - that is, Neolithic Age.
