Around 1200 B.C., the kingdoms that had run the eastern Mediterranean for three centuries came apart in about a generation. Ugarit burned. The Hittite capital was abandoned. The Mycenaean palaces burned or were emptied, and writing disappeared from Greece for more than four hundred years. On the walls of his temple at Medinet Habu, Ramesses III carved the names of the peoples he said had attacked Egypt, and claimed he alone had stopped them.Historians later called them the Sea Peoples, a name the Egyptians never used. This book follows the evidence for who they were and what happened: the Amarna letters and the Uluburun shipwreck, the last letters from Ugarit, three years of drought in the tree rings of Gordion, and DNA from infants buried at Ashkelon. It ends with what grew out of the ruins: the Philistines, Israel, the Phoenician alphabet and the Greece of Homer.This second edition is rewritten and expanded throughout, with new chapters on the Phoenicians, on iron and on the two-hundred-year hunt for the Sea Peoples, 12 maps drawn for the book and 33 photographs.
