    3 am... couldn't sleep ... then I switched the tube on and spent the most enthralling 70-plus minutes of my last decade. Having read the first 1177 book a few years ago, I truly loved the subject and your delivery.

      Seems to me that in the face of rising climate-related difficulties growing the crops that bankrolled the late bronze age powers that were, the ruling class remained too greedy, and over-reliant on foreign mercenaries, for their own good, and depending on local conditions, got their just desserts. Something the subsequent, and our current iteration of oligarchs might want to think about.

    As a fellow academic, there is nothing more relatable than a historian arguing against the subtitle of his own book, because it isn't *technically* true, but he lost the battle with his editors. 😂 20:41

      Hammurabi's Shoes is such a better title. My daughters would even be tempted to read it if they saw that title on the bookshelf. Had 1177 since the first printing and cannot convince either of them to even pick it up off the shelf. And we live in the centre of where the Bronze Age collapsed! Marketing literally gave an unpick-up-able title.

    It seems to me that Homer knew something about the Sea People based on two passages in the Odyssey. Menelaus tells Telemachus about his sojourn in Egypt after the Trojan War and the story that Odysseus tells the swine herd. The second story sounds similar to the Sea People attack on Egypt

      Couldn't agree more. Almost certain that memories of these rovers are woven into the tapestry, alongside other nautical nightmares... Such a fascinating period of history (and, in case you're interested, you might like this section of Michael Wood's epic 1980s documentary about Troy, in which he speaks to Dr Elizabeth French, daughter of the great Mycenae expert Alan Wace. She has a brilliant angle on their base of operations.... ruclips.net/video/CBk9j9Slb1Y/видео.html, from 42 mins).

    Erica, I’ve been watching RUclips videos since 2006 and this is the first and only comment I’ve ever been moved to make on a video. Thank you so much for doing these interviews and for making them lively and enjoyable. You don’t get much marketable history content in a visual medium; and while I love a traditional history book, an upbeat, living color channel where you conduct these interviews is a real treat. Thank you very much.

    In the third book, do reverse-chronological order. Start at the end at the beginning of the book, and each chapter goes backwards until you get to the end of the Bronze Age collapse. Making sure you focus on the long term implications of the Bronze Age collapse.

    Edit: up until now I never had any interest in reading 1177BC exactly because of the clickbait-y title - I just thought it would be unnuanced. Now I have heard the author speak I think I am going to give it a shot. Just wish publishing houses would not push for titles like this.. gives an almost wrong impression of the book I gather.

    On the change in organization from the first book to the second, it makes perfect sense, because the first book tells the tale of a interconnected trading system, while the second book takes the tale of isolated regions after the collapse of the interconnected trading system. If the third book takes the story to the death of Alexander, it will inevitably be a story of reestablishing and extending connections among ancient civilizations. For that reason, if a third form of organization is desired, maybe the place to start is with Alexander and how the world into which he was born came to be - and how he (or his army) changed it.

    I have been interested in Mycenae, the Sea Peoples and Schliemans findings at Troy for decades but only became interested in the Bronze Age Collapse around 2019. So little on the internet on the subject, but a few decent RUclipsrs have made a dent in the subject and a few books that didn't really cover the subject well IMO.

Hope Eric Cline takes this into considerstion since the connection between the Boltic and the Meditteranean remains understudied altough there is a huge amount of new research on the Baltic sea Bronze Age

    Interesting I think the true end of the antiqity is not 476 AD, but it would be better 536 AD. It may be the irone age (antiqity) was between 1177 BC to 536 AD (instead of 476 AD).
    Phoenicians was succesful to restart the trading after 1177 BC. Only some city got seriouse problem in Phoenicia as Ugarit.

    Hi Erica, how did Bronze Age societies support and compensate their militaries? If you were the invader, plunder, slave harvests, and land grabs were apparently sufficient. Ig., Caesar in Gaul. But if you were the defender, assembling, supporting, and compensating large armies presents challenges, but yields little commodity gains.

    • @crhu319

      Exactly. So invading paid off for rulers while defending didn't. Kind of explains everything.

    @vanhowell3011 9 дней назад

    At 30:00, you ask us what third approach could follow the chronological and geographical? The answer lies a minute or two earlier, in your mentioning of Alexander, Buddha, etc. This is when distinct personalities emerge (as ta consistently dominant factor in history-making) for the first time. Although shrouded in myth, they're vividly individual... BIOGRAPHICAL is what you need for part three! Of course you won't be rehashing actual biographies of actual people very much, but by putting them into their CHRONOLOGICAL and GEOGRAPHICAL CONTEXTS you can write something almost like a biography of the world as it was during those centuries,,, with the individual human beings shining brightly and illuminating our path... It might be good literature-that is to say, more interesting-as well as correct politics to give equal time to females, and includes some gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines, as well as mortals.
