Around 1,200 BC, an ancient Armageddon destroyed nearly
every known civilization. What could have caused it?
The theories are many, but most now include one mysterious
and massively destructive factor -- a force only the Egyptians survived to
name: The Sea People.
Who were these warriors and how could they take down the
world's greatest powers in a span of just 50 years?Scale the dizzying heights of Crete's mountain fortress with
archaeologist Krzysztof Nowicki as he searches for clues.
Programs such as these try to cover their shallowness with
terms as secrets revealed, mystery, clues, etc. But when the viewer has
carefully considered the presentation after viewing it, it is clear that little
more is known than previously.
"The foreign countries (ie. Sea Peoples) made a
conspiracy in their islands. All at once the lands were removed and scattered
in the fray. No land could stand before their arms: from Hatti, Qode,
Carchemish, Arzawa and Alashiya on, being cut off [ie. destroyed] at one time.
A camp was set up in Amurru. They desolated its people, and its land was like
that which has never come into being. They were coming forward toward Egypt,
while the flame was prepared before them. Their confederation was the Peleset,
Tjeker, Shekelesh, Denyen and Weshesh, lands united. They laid their hands upon
the land as far as the circuit of the earth, their hearts confident and
trusting: 'Our plans will succeed!' "
In a couple of generations, about 1200 BC, several bronze
age civilizations in the eastern part of the Mediterranean apparently
collapsed. We cannot be certain that there was any connection among these.
There is all but no hard written record as to why, beyond a few cryptic
Egyptian accounts and paintings. According to this DVD, an un-named "sea
people" descended upon the local villages and drove the residents to
higher ground. Who these invaders were (assuming they existed), where they came
from or where they went is a matter of speculation. Without hard evidence
archaeologists are able to claim about anything they want to, and who is to say
them nay? It all may sound scholarly but it is flimsy guesswork.
