Video - Unraveling the End of the Bronze Age: Pirates, Plagues, and the Birth of the Iron Era!

Did you know that the end of the Bronze Age was one of the most mysterious and chaotic periods in ancient history? Around 1200 BCE, civilizations like the Mycenaeans, Hittites, and Egyptians suddenly collapsed. One theory is that the "Sea Peoples" invaded these regions, causing widespread destruction. Imagine a group of ancient pirates just rolling up and wrecking everything! But that's not all—there were also massive earthquakes, droughts, and even plagues. Talk about a bad century! The disruption was so intense that even ancient writing systems like Linear B disappeared. And here’s the kicker: the collapse led to the Iron Age, which means this chaos actually paved the way for better tools and technology. So, next time your day goes off the rails, just remember it could be worse—you could be living at the end of the Bronze Age! What’s your theory on what caused this epic downfall?
