I'd like to be recommended some literature on the different indigenous societies and their histories. My current perception of things is that those in West-Africa existed on a cline from neolithic to bronze-age in terms of civilizational advancement/structure. I believe those ran by Cushites were more advanced to some degree, though all I'd be able to confidently list to support that is the fact that they had a proper indigenous writing system (I imagine the proto-writing systems in West-Africa failed to develop due to the presence of Arabic?)

I'm too lazy to make a list just check out Isaac Samuel's articles about, he always cite his sources. https://www.africanhistoryextra.com/

The three-age system is not an indicator of social development, but rather a convenient framework for dividing prehistory, and it applies only to Europe and some areas of North Africa and Western Asia.
