1177 B.C.: When Civilization Collapsed | Eric Cline
Consider this, optimists. All the societies in the world can collapse simultaneously. It has happened before.
In the 12th century BCE the great Bronze Age civilizations of the Mediterranean-all of them-suddenly fell apart. Their empires evaporated, their cities emptied out, their technologies disappeared, and famine ruled. Mycenae, Minos, Assyria, Hittites, Canaan, Cyprus-all gone. Even Egypt fell into a steep decline. The Bronze Age was over.
The event should live in history as one of the great cautionary tales, but it hasn’t because its causes were considered a mystery. How can we know what to be cautious of? Eric Cline has taken on on the mystery. An archaeologist-historian at George Washington University, he is the author of "1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed." The failure, he suggests, was systemic. The highly complex, richly interconnected system of the world tipped all at once into chaos.
"1177 B.C.: When Civilization Collapsed" was given on January 11, 02016 as part of Long Now's Seminar series. The series was started in 02003 to build a compelling body of ideas about long-term thinking from some of the world's leading thinkers.

50 years ago I remember my Dad joking about how future archeologists would look at our ruins and think that Barby Dolls were fertility goddesses and TV sets were religious altars.
Yeah. And when they find CD's, DVDs, or Blue-rays they will see them as tablets and conclude that we were communicating in binary language. 10011100110011...

Wow. Dr. Cline was my professor for Greek History 18 years ago at George Washington University. It was one of the hardest classes I ever took. Dr. Cline offered me no quarter; either I learned a ton of history or I failed. I studied my ass off, got an A on the final, and earned the most difficult 'C' I'd ever receive. It is great watching him now and knowing that I was learning from one of the preeminent experts on this time period in the academic world.
god...i would give anything to allowed a D- in a greek history class taught by Dr. Cline...
Was it worth it?
Yup. Pearls before college swine ...😏
@Hiccum Blurpaedius Wtf is Bob Dole? ... Meanwhile I happened to read on. I gather Bob Dole was a good republican. Hold my beer! I go and fetch my gun ...
@ Of course not. That is not the way of knowledge. """Educational""" system is garbage.
Dr Cline is one of a few Lecturers that are able to keep my interest throughout the entire lecture. His ever-changing tone and interesting facts mixed with a bit of dry humor make it an easy listen. I wish I had more teachers like this while in school.
He sprinkled some jokes into a misleading presentation
Look into Irving Finkle's presentations. He monopolizes his eccentric Brit persona & is extremely good at keeping an audience's attention .
I agree.. he is very good as a presenter.
You can't have more teachers like this with those salaries.
This was excellent. You can tell someone is a true master of their trade or area of expertise when they can explain the material so simply and elegantly. Bravo.
And respond to questions from the audience in apa format
Cline is a rare academic, one that can make complicated themes understandable. At the same time make it fun, engaging and makes you want to investigate more.
Academics used to be a dime a dozen, when I was still too young for College. Now they are harder to find.

Meh. So much of the western historical narrative leaves for more questions than answers, and very dubious at best. For example, up until the mid 1800s, you have many references to the Tartarian empire, including existence on maps of that era, and then it is largely erased from the modern narrative. The Tartarian maps include domain over large parts of what is now Russia and also North America. The language spoken is often said to be an early form of Magyar (currently known now as Hungarian) language. You find in the Americas, evidence of Magyar language spoken by many so-called "first nation" people, who also say, "we aren't the first". What else, also early Spanish maps predating 1850s show the Aztecs had a range from what is today, Salt Lake City to Mexico City. If you look at maps of early American languages spoken, that's exactly what you find. Yet the modern, institutionally supported narrative doesn't follow the facts, but spit out constant spun-up conjecture. Then you have megalithic sites with technology that doesn't match the current narrative, including anthropological findings that support "native mythology" but not "Western" chronological narratives. The explanation? Also, shy is the Smithsonian more secretive than the NSA?
@@erickeith1466 yup, All major cities in NA were are probly tartarian. We couldnt rebuild those parliment buildings, cathedrals etc if we tried. Nevermind the secrecy behind space program and disaster cycles one of which is coming up in 20 yrs SuspiciousObservers yt channel

Just having an amateur interest in history and retired railway conductor I found this info very relevant to our human activity today. I think the video shown at the beginning was probably the same in 1200 BC. Just different technology. Your use of modern analogy, including jokes, and common language made this lecture a pleasure. Thank you. I was employed on the Santa Fe Railway formed by a man in 1869 , Cyrus K. Holiday, who had a vision of trade with Asia. That vision is still a main stay of what we now call intermodal freight traffic or trade. The Santa Fe completed it’s transcontinental link from Chicago to LA and California ports by 1888. Now the BNSF Ry calls the Santa Fe mainline the southern “Transcon”. However, a large portion of the freight is now carried in containers adapted to be loaded onto large container ships on both east & west coast of the U.S. Some of the freight is trans-global, in that containers are off loaded on one coast onto trains. Then transported across the US and reloaded onto container ships too large to navigate the Panama Canal. Then transported to either Europe, Africa and Asia and visa-versa. It forced the railway systems to modernize and the Santa Fe had that vision to have the infrastructure to adapt to the change and increase in freight traffic. They were a bit slow to pick up the ball, but were way ahead of other railway companies in moving priority freight trains on their passenger mainlines much more efficiently. BNSF take over just boosted the investment needed to speed the mainline up even more on the Santa Fe route. So how much evidence has archeology uncovered to show an evolution of methods of transporting raw material and high value trade items? The tin from Afghanistan would have been a tough trip with heavy loads to meet the demand to make bronze. Camels? Carts? Elephants? Were trade routes trampled down hard and leaving a permanent impression in the earth, then paved over by Roman road system? We can only guess, 🤔 I guess?
Early 2K, I remember leaving CA by car using 10 and seeing freight cars after freight cars heading into California and on the sides was printed "CHINA." Many family members from Los Lunas and Belen area in NM worked for SFRR, and by the late 30s had moved permanently to CA with the job.

tldr
Did you ever run over an alien?
@@brianfreel1473 well sadly it depends on your definition of an alien. Unfortunately there were a few Hispanic freight riders who literally “fell thru the cracks”. One incident involved an apparent Hispanic male riding the empty part of the cars that carried the shipping containers. I’d guess he got so tired he fell thru the space between to cross bracing in the floor to the track while the train was traveling 60-70 MPH. I wasn’t a member of the crew and it was hard to determine the cause after the fact as there was no way to know to determine the facts. I never heard any result of the BNSF investigation. Thanks for asking.
The Tojan war is a fascinating thing because of the cleverness of Homer's epic. This man sung a lie so big, so enthralling that here it is thousands of years later and we have not forgotten the truth. We don't know exactly where the war was fought, that's unimportant, we remember the important aspects. Men of Greece waged a war that lasted for many years and it was so terrible that even when it was over it was not over for the soldiers. They were so scarred by the war that they became lost, unable to truly return home for many years if at all. Thousands of years ago, Homer sung about PTSD... and mocked the very reason why the men paid such a terrible price.
We do know where the war was fought since Schliemann found the ruins in Anatolia

I read his book, and I wish I had had this narrative before I read it. I have worked on scientific literacy projects, and teaching storytelling is an underrated approach to helping people hang theories and evidence together. As much as I love methods, I think they may need to be a secondary priority in sharing STEM with the general public.
I love watching someone teach this subject who thinks this is as much fun to learn about as I do. 🥰
This is a gifted man. You can be sure he has influenced many young minds. What a great role model.

HE IS PHENOMENAL!
I was a history major, Middle Eastern and North African studies, and I keep coming back to this lecture. There’s so much incredible information here. Unfortunately, it helps us to understand where we’re headed.
Agreed. We should always: Look back to the past and find a resolution for securing a new unknown future!
I think, biblically, we can also see where we are headed. We can change trajectory, if we really want to
@@RC-fi4ix no.
Possibly. But there are so many things that are SO unlike anything that existed in other eras of time, that you really can't conclude that history will repeat itself, even if it is similar in many ways to events that have played out many times before. We could be headed for a societal collapse, or what may well prove to be a minor inconvenience to the bringing about of an ultra optimistic transhumanist future. Only time will tell.
@@RC-fi4ix Can't change it but we can retard it by pushing back.
Regarding the discussion on iron versus bronze..as a sculptor who pours both bronze and iron regularly I can say that the difference back then was surely the melting temperature..1850F for bronze and 2650F for iron..in ancient times there was no way to cast iron and get to that temp..it was smelted into what was called a bloom and heated red hot and pounded into useful shapes..but not melted..that would take centuries to engineer..also brass was rare because the boiling point of zinc is so close to its melting point that zinc was rarely isolated to create brass..also i really enjoyed this video..cheers...
there are surprising early 'blast furnaces' found that can make crude cast iron but yeah the blast furnaces that would give high quality iron and not cast iron were middle ages not what we think of as the iron age but that is the real iron age
I have no doubt they would have developed the double bellows eventually but they also had an economy revolving around bronze and an upper class invested in it. Think of the push back from big oil or coal and the conservative class over alternative energy even though it's become cheaper.

I was just in the Thessaloniki museum 2 days ago and the most recent archeological research reveals that the 'dark age' theory - at least in Greece - may be incorrect. Although the monumental/palacial cities may have been destroyed, new polis sprang up on the ruins almost immediately. Macedonian Greece was not as affected as was previously thought, and certainly didn't suffer a 'dark age'.
1:24:55 "Motel of the Mysteries"!! I remember Reader's Digest did an excerpt from that story back in the 80's or so, and it really stuck with me...never expected somebody to bring it up! It was brilliant. They "discovered" that the "ancient burial site" (motel) was surrounded by outward-facing guardians to protect and defend the tomb, with names like "Firebird", "Falcon" and so on... 😂
What I really, really love about this video is that it made me finally understand archeology, and how close it is to forensic science!
Except that forensics is so incomplete and scattered that's when the extrapolation makes it an art form. History is still written by the winners to project the story they prefer.
@@Ralph_Baric_PhD_C2019 Don't be small minded man. Who are the winners in this case ? No one. This is just about understanding why those societies collapsed in the 12th century BC.

I had a class with Professor Cline a few years ago, as you can tell he is a fantastic lecturer. Also has a collection of wonderfully thematic ties.
Where does he get them? I took a fun screen shot.

Oh yeah I’m sure you did, and I was a backup singer for Elvis Presley…There’s no point in lying on KZhead comments. It’s not like it’s gonna get you laid. None of the hoes on here even know who you are. Stop trying to be something you’re not. No one likes a liar, sea person.

Thank you, Long Now Foundation. Great presentation! Did read some of Mr. Cline's book. It is a serious book. His fun humor comes across in his lecturing. I think the details of ancient civilization are so interesting, even more interesting than the theories about it. The high points of his view on the fall of the ancient nations caught in a perfect storm of challenges are much more accessible in this talk compared to the very densely written book.
This guy is awesome. He gives credit to so many other people. You rarely see this and instead see speakers usually give credit to themselves for everything. And he's humorous and makes this story so interesting. Society is lucky to have this person around.

Fascinating lecture, thanks to Eric Cline for putting it together and the Long Now Foundation for hosting it. I especially found the earthquake sequence to be interesting as I had not heard of this before in the context of the late bronze age collapse. Not sure yet if it's in his book but I had the thought that earthquakes would have wrought havoc on the un-reinforced masonry and mud-brick walls that the cites of these civilizations depended on for protection. This would have helped the sea peoples (or any other invaders in that period) to undermine, batter down or otherwise assault those settlements. I bet someone could write a paper just on that, and I would love to read it.
Earthquakes still destroying adobe brick buildings in Mexico.
Eric Cline is a top rate speaker and presenter. Had me hooked here.
I need more of these lectures by Dr. Cline!
This must be the most viewed video about archeology on YT, 2.3 million people at least opened it. Not surprising, this man is amazing!
Outstanding presentation and discussion. Nice to see academics keeping an open mind and acknowledging when we don't know what we don't know. And a great take on the practicalities of iron vs. bronze. "How sharp is an iron vs. a bronze dagger?" "Does it matter when it goes into you?" Iron is better, obviously, but it's much harder to produce (higher temperatures, alloys, etc.), and so you wouldn't necessarily want to use it if bronze gives you the 90% solution. But if tin becomes impossible to find...
Bronze is more economical and affordable than iron - iron's strength only becomes noticeable when used for weapons. The upgrade from bronze to iron/steel would be an obvious military upgrade.
Don't bring a bronze weapon to an iron weapon fight.
1177 B.C.: When Civilization Collapsed | Eric Cline 1117am 17.5.23 they must have headed to Uk to seek out the much desired tin... other than that i doubt greek or roman recce expeditions would result in anything other than this land being seen as a home for wild savages and crap weather... eventually the Uk realises it was used and abused for something - it couldnt quite conclude what...
Historians come in all breeds some are magical clerks who can take all works of a time and spin them into something cohesive and congruent, some are detectives who can infer so much out of so little and still be accurate, others are bards/artists who can take the mundane and bring them to life in a way no one else can. With ancient (might as well be Pre-) history you find the detectives en masse, but to actually bring life to a time so empty of literature takes talent of all three, and bravo to you sir.

1177 BC? There are videos on YT that say 536AD is actually the worst year.
I have been in the midst of reading this book when I came across this Very intriguing I do have to say that the dismissive attitude towards the exodus is a bit puzzling Because I believe it may be the key component that ties it all together Especially with such a large displacement of a people group Trade routes disrupted even halted Economic collapse of Egypt and the entire region from Egypt to Syria But that is a discussion for another day I thoroughly enjoyed watching and learning today from a deep learned scholar and archeologist like Dr Cline

An excellent overview of The Fall of the Bronze Age. I had heard some of these ideas and stories presented over the years, but Dr Cline weaves much of it into a tapestry that makes events easier to follow and understand. Archeology has been of interest to me for many years, but understanding "why" times change based on both human behavior and natural events really helps one to visualize the chain of events that played the most significant parts in how and why societies change or undergo changes over which they actually have little control. A very interesting and highly educational lecture. Thanks to all who helped to make it possible to bring to YT. 😊
wonderful talk. loved the subject and the presentation, and both of them. and no adds, pure delight.
@Dr Evil Where did that come from, Dr. E? Perhaps your own white cat ran away and now you want to find a new one? Might I suggest a pet store... Also, how come you think it's remotely competent to complain about someone else's life, when you immediately show you have none either by making a troll comment under an archaeology video. A good roast shouldn't include self-immolation, you know.
*Did you failed SPELLING❓Kat instead of CAT❓And it’s whatever not wutever MORON.*
@Dr Evil Heey Dr. E, you should heed your own advise. "Go out, get drunk, get laid, get a good nights rest... You will have a different perspective on it.". Clearly such reasoning goes both ways, doesn't it? You really must hate your own life, because the first thing you say to people is "get a life, moron"... Well, why don't you do exactly that yourself, Dr. E? All you're doing right now is lashing out to someone on the internet, hoping that they strike back and confirm to you that the world is a bad place. Pretty sure it will get worse and worse if you continue on this road, Mr. So do yourself a favor and read this comment over and over again like a rhyme, like a mantra, until you get it that you don't need to respond to me to feel better, you need to address your own issues. It's a self-defeating argument to denote someone else's reasoning as just an opinion, and subsequently not address the issue that your own comment thereby also is reduced to opinion. It's a little narcissist. See, "Remember, your opinions are just that, opinions..."... This makes me think you lack true self-worth, because you don't say "people's opinion" in defense of everyone, no you say "your opinion" attacking me as some sort of pre-emptive defense of only yourself. At least I trolled a troll to feel better, you just puke on everyone, don't you, including yourself? Finally, you say "Get a life moron, you probably have a collection of cats don't you?" and then follow up with "How in the hell did cats enter into the observation/conversation...?".... How do you even muster up the courage to speak of my attention span, whilst your own is just about futile? If you say stuff like that, it's not really an opinion that you suck as a troll, it's a fact. There is logic and evidence supporting that, not vague remarks of vogue and fashion. If you knew anything about fashion at all, you would have known most evil geniuses have white cats for purposes of being evil in style. I see pop culture references only make it as far as your profile name and picture... Help yourself, Dr. E. really.. Otherwise things will never brighten up for you anymore.. Turn that troll into stone with some nice sun... Maybe some day you will realize that you should really thank me for taking the time to explain this to you. I will thank you in the meantime, because I now have a solid piece of advise to apply to myself. You see, I do apply my own reasoning to my own position, contrary to some people. Thanks for being my beast of burden. Troll of trolls out.

So amazing and entertaining!!!! Mr. Eric Cline has the power of teach his knowledge in a manner that you forget he's been talking for an hour. I could listen to him an entire day without thinking of anything else. Such an interesting topic and also how important it is for us at the present times. Incredible and passionate presentation, didactic and clear.
Yes, but I did get a bit tired of every question being answered "all of the above" or "both". :-) Now, I have to admit that's an honest and sometimes correct answer. But more often, in the real world, when you have 5 things supporting something that falls, there's one thing that caused or started it. So the best answer is "we don't know yet which one."
This man is an effective educator; he does a really good job of captivating your attention

Fascinating to hear Professor Cline talk. When I visit places I also often think I wonder how this placed looked X-thousand years ago and what will come her in the future? Thank you for sharing this on KZhead.
Most of the times those places were more advanced before the cataclysms

Just ordered it.
Poor defense of his book title.

What a wonderful lecture, and great question session afterwards. Well done!
A really fascinating history lecture indeed! Thank you professor Eric Cline!
Great talk. This man is superbly well informed and articulate. It was a pleasure to watch.
A great lesson for us, today. The thought, the delivery, and the imagery are unforgettable. Pity few of our "Leaders" seem capable of learning from history.
Well, nobody at all seems capable of learning from history for some reason. Every time there is a war we all say 'never again', famous last words.
We need to elect better educated more caring people. We need to stop considering their wallets when running for office; having money obviously DOES NOT make good politicians, certainly not great ones.
I've taught for many years and I am so glad to see that good educators such as Dr. Cline use humor to enhance their effectiveness. I always told my students that Jerry Seinfeld was my muse when creating my lectures.

Good lecture, well hosted, good questions! Thank you for sharing.
On a stele outside the ancient city of Nimrod, the inscription, often attribute to Hammurabi, reads "Take them back to Kaptar, Bahdi-Lim. They make my feet look fat, like I have cankles. I want to speak to an overseer."
brilliant, thanks for this video and to everyone involved, esp. Dr. Eric Cline
The iron dagger in King Tut's tomb derives with high certainty from an iron meteorite. A recent study using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry determined that Tutankhamun’s dagger was made with iron containing nearly 11 percent nickel and traces of cobalt: a characteristic of extraterrestrial iron found in many of the iron meteorites that have rained down on Earth for billions of years.
I would love to take a class by this guy. Very engaging and entertaining.
Excellent analysis. I'm seeing things in a different light now. It's filled in a lot of missing problems
That was really interesting, thank you!
What a wonderful talk and Q&A. Thank you for posting this!
Watching , really got me thinking about US we are at the begin of the ending of our 1177.
1:09:40 “You’re not going to actually do it unless you HAVE to” (referring to the transition from bronze to iron). Welp, that pretty much sums up whether/when/how we’ll switch from fossil fuels to renewables, I suppose 😕.
what an amazing lesson for us all, thank you for your insight and sharing!
This was an absolutely amazing lecture! And I believe he has pointed out very clearly issues that we are currently facing today.

@@Primus-ue4th only 2 countries on the planet that are part of the modern world and heavily rely on the supply chain aren’t going to have a population crisis in the next 10 years. (USA and New Zealand) aging population and no one to replace them in the work force because they literally don’t exist because people had less kids. Even the USA and New Zealand will have problems from this though so don’t treat them like they are completely safe. A global debt crisis that every country in the world is dealing with and now starting to suffer from. Countries like Russia going to war at a terrible moment in history and getting more of their own people killed than even achieving anything. China massive population has the possibility of dropping to 600 million in 10-30 years and they are a huge producer of world goods. Their population is dropping because of how many people are old compared to young (they have the worst situation in the world). Covid sent a shock through the supply system and now China is now dealing with 7 different variants at once because of how they isolated themselves back in 2020 and now the consequences are appearing. World governments trying to limit how much farmers use nitrogen for fertilizer which in turn is setting up a large food reduction approaching over the next year because farmers weren’t allowed to use the fertilizer that’s been feeding the planet. These are avoidable because it’s already occurring unfortunately
I thoroughly enjoyed this lecture! So fascinating and well-presented! Thank you!

Wonderful and fascinating. Plus added bonus, Dr Cline speaks beautifully with a really clear and pleasant voice. Thank you so much for this video. Best wishes

Man, this was a tough room. This guy is pretty damn funny sometimes!
Yeah I loved the content and some of the jokes were spot on. "I hope they had insurance" got no laughs :(
A good lecturer will know that adding humor helps keep the audience both alert and awake. Otherwise everyone would just fall asleep.
He is funny. Nice person, too.
Probably the audience had a lot of stressed out grad students worrying about how they'll pay off their student loans with a PhD in ancient history.
I thought the one about marrying for love was pretty funny.
Great history lecture. Really enjoyed this.

So this was a great show and I learned a lot and it’s fascinating! Has anybody actually built a systems model based upon any of this to look for how the stressors affected the system. you mentioned a system many times but is anybody actually built a model? that would be very enlightening I think!
Do the letters he read out first match with the drought and earthquakes he describes later? I didn't think so.
What an amazing channel! I just found this today. Do you have Long Now chapters across the country. I am in Michigan.
Fantastic lecture and discussion - thanks for this Dr Cline and Long Now Foundation ... so glad I found this youtube channel
What is long now foundation marked with an upside-down x? Ever wondered?
This was really fascinating, I was so engrossed I didn’t notice the time and was surprised when he finished. The sign of a great speaker is when you don’t believe it finished so quickly because it is so interesting. I could have listened for another hour, such a brilliant explanation. Thank you, I will watch out for more topics from this channel.

The late bronze age collapse is fascinating, such a brilliant lecture by Dr Cline.
Fascinating. What about the Santorini Eruption? Thank you
About 30 years ago. I was buying a derelict building in Yorkshire UK. After making the walls and roof intact I started to dig away the trash that had accumulated in this long time derelict .. after disposal of the mounds of trash it was time to dig back the floors of plywood, carpet, linoleum etc to get to a base to rebuild from. I started by the doors because the weather of years had made these multiple levels of flooring accumulation just a sequence of mush, dirt and debris.. as I found the bottom over a period of weeks/months, and scraped back to expose the intricate ceramic mosaic tiling work it was elating and horrifying to discover what I was buying.. it was a historic “royal coach house”. What a find for the historic society of England, What a horror to do further remodeling if they or the government found out. Luckily a divorce that occurred at the exact same time meant I was made fiscally incomplete and could no longer make the payments, so it was signed back to the guy I was buying it from.. I highly doubt he informed anyone of its historical significance..
Regarding bronze vs iron The speaker makes a really good point about "a sharp edge is a sharp edge." Don't forget we are talking iron here, not steel. Not to say that carbon didn't get into the iron at all, but people hadn't quite figured out steel yet. So while iron is harder than bronze, it's not like steel. Like bronze, iron is given to bending as well as requiring frequent sharpening (though less frequently w iron).
I know very little about archeology but enjoyed this talk immensely
Canan was actually Palestine, Syria, and Jordan. Not Israel, Syria and Jordan.
@@brendanwood1540 No you're a dunce he's a professor.
@ A bias religious scholar. You and him are trying to pretend that Palestine was not a nation and that it was not inhabited for thousands of years before the state of Israel was established in 1948. Without any evidence, besides biblical history, you claim that Israelites occupied the area before 1276 BCE. However, for the period of time while it was called Canaan, the Canaanites were not Israelites. The region of Canaan did not include Israel. Back then it was Palestine. If you want to try to pretend that they didn't exist. That's like claiming South America is Spanish. Interestingly in history the genetic haplotype actually migrated from Europe at some point in time eventually developing their own cultures in South America. These included the Olmec, Aztec, Inca, Maya, and Norte Chico people. Thousands of years passed and then Europeans came to invade the land despite no actual direct relations to the local people. They could claim that it was always a Spanish colony made of Europeans and just disregard all the things that happened in between. This is what you are saying here. Cultures and people who existed in a place for thousands of years are not real. You claim that because at some distant point in history your ancestors may have occupied the same land it has always been yours and the people who lived there in between have no right to it. Seems more than a little selfish.

@@0649Hayes what? Did TDS just make its way into the comments on this archeology video? Amazing 😂
@@0649Hayes Comments like that are part of the reason why no one likes you. This video has nothing to do with the bad orange man, but you are so obsessed with him that you just had to mention him, anyway. That’s unbelievably pathetic. I just thank God that the TDS you’re infected with isn’t contagious, because I’d rather have Covid and AIDS at the same time, than to have to deal with an illness as embarrassing as that. I feel so bad for your family. Your crazy obsession with the man who used to be president has to be seriously humiliating to them. They aren’t the ones who were so ignorant and gullible that they allowed themselves to become brainwashed, yet now, thanks to your sick obsession, people can’t help but look at them differently, too, I’m sure. It’s not fair to them, at all, but you can’t really blame people for wondering if genetics are to blame for you being so simple-minded. It’s a shame, too, because I’m sure some of them are probably decent people, who actually have some common sense, and the ability to think for themselves. I really hope they find a cure, soon, for the sake of all your loved ones, and everyone else that’s suffering from the humiliation of having a relative with TDS, as well. They didn’t do anything stupid, and they don’t deserve this. You deserve every bit of the ridicule, though, because you were the fool who trusted the propaganda, and you were the one who didn’t have enough sense to consider that there might be another side to all the stories you heard. They told you the bad orange man colluded with Russia, and you just knew it was true. You saw his mean tweets, and you heard that private conversation he had, when he joked around with another man on a bus, and you were appalled. You heard about how he was a racist, and about how he had slept with a lot of beautiful women when he was younger, and you were disgusted. When he won the presidency you were heartbroken for your country, wondering how such an awful man could have been elected, when, instead, we could have had a president with good morals, and picture-perfect family values, like Bill Clinton’s wife. You figured it was probably all because of sexism, but then, you heard that it was possibly the work of Vladimir Putin, who was secretly best buds with the bad orange man, and, suddenly, it all made perfect sense to you. You knew that Russians weren’t supposed to vote in our elections, and you were furious that it had happened that way, so you did what any good, patriotic American would do, if they heard something that ridiculous, and there wasn’t any evidence to support it, and you made it clear to everyone you talked to, right away, that the president-elect was “not your president,” and you were right. Then, you continued saying that, even after you weren’t right anymore, and you said it for the next 4 years. Long after he had become your president, you still made it a point to stand up for what’s right, and say “not my president,” even though he obviously was. You knew that if the election had been fair, and the Russians hadn’t been allowed to vote in it, he could’ve never defeated a real leader, like Bill’s old lady, in more than 30 states like he did. You considered leaving the country, because you couldn’t stand the idea of a person of orange color making America great again, but then, you remembered that there wasn’t any better countries to go to, so you made the brave decision to stay, and try your very best to make it through the next 4 years of hell, doing anything you could to survive the nightmare of America becoming great again. You courageously told yourself that you’d give the deep state one more chance to hold a fair election, and if the outcome of that one wasn’t fair enough, you’d have no choice but to threaten to leave the country again, before eventually deciding to stay. Fortunately, you didn’t have to worry about doing anything drastic like that, though, because this time, the good, totally unbiased men and women, and other genders in the deep state, made sure that there was no funny business allowed, and we had a totally fair election. It was so fair this time, in fact, that literally everyone agreed that it was fair, except for one candidate, all the people who supported him, and some other folks who didn’t necessarily support him, but still wanted a fair election, anyway. All the Democrat politicians made it very clear, that it was the very mostest fairestest election that there has ever been, ever ever ever, in the whole entire history of fair elections, and all the honest, totally unbiased political activists/news reporters, who actively support all those same Democrat politicians, along with the same Democrat candidate they all supported, but clearly had no dog in the fair election fight, confirmed that what all the Democrat politicians they support said was true. Finally, the bad orange man, who “wasn’t your president,” would actually not be your president anymore, and we would soon have a leader who won fair and square, and who wasn’t a dumb old racist pervert, like the last guy, who was also bad and orange. Thank the Big Bang, or the great transgender illegal alien Buddha, or whatever it is that people like you worship, we now have a president who is incredibly sharp, energetic, always knows what he’s doing, and where he’s at, has never once said or done anything racist, and has absolutely never fondled tons of women and children inappropriately, either behind closed doors, or right in plain sight, on video, repeatedly, for the whole world to see. It sure is a good thing those crazy Trump supporters didn’t get their way again, isn’t it? Oh, I almost forgot to even mention, the new guy knows Barrack Obama, the first half-black president, personally, and he even claims to be his friend. It definitely doesn’t get any cooler than that! We are all certainly in good hands now, but especially any little girls that get to meet the president. He really loves it when they sit in his lap and rub his hairy legs, as he’s whispering softly into their ear, and sniffing their hair. It’s wonderful having an intelligent man who is so good with kids in office, isn’t it? He actually seems as excited to meet them, as they are uncomfortable to have him rub and sniff them. It’s so funny how he always pretends to flirt with the cute little girls, and he tells them silly things, like how he wants to date them. It’s really sweet to see how he just automatically starts grooming any kid he’s around, and does his best to make them feel safe. It seems like it comes totally naturally for him, and you can definitely tell it’s genuine. I’m sure any parent would be thrilled to have a man just like him to babysit their kids. I’m telling you, this elderly, creepy, incompetent joke of a president we have now is just a really, truly great guy, any way you look at it. There’s absolutely no doubt that everyone knows this by now, but if you didn’t vote for Brandon, you ain’t stupid! I mean come on man! This ain’t a joke. Corn Pop was a bad dude. He was an African-American, and he respected me. I’m not joking. This is a big f*cking deal. Come on man!!
@@chriswebster24 Well, it's clear someone in this thread is obsessed. I'll weigh one sentence against 12 paragraphs and draw my own conclusions.
One thing the Professor noted in as missing from the the list of things that caused system collapse in 1177 BC was plague. It is interesting that April 2020 was too early in the pandemic for the Professor to add it to the list of calamities present last year when comparing them with those of 1177 BC.
Another thing missing when considering parallels between the Bronze Age and our current collapse is the role of 21st century technology. It could be argued that social media and internet-based business model has generated modern day “sea peoples,” aka hackers, who raid the infrastructure of our community with disinformation, viruses and cyber-piracy.

Plandemic
Indeed. C19 didn't keep young males out of armies or the fields, as it turns out.
Huge difference in those long ago historical pandemics with casualties being in the tens if not hundreds of millions. 25-75 million plague victims died soon after first contact by the old world and their all encompassing conquest of the Americas by those filthy, greedy Eurocentric rats.
I tripped across this while in a YT rabbit hole. It was a great listen. People ask me why I can take or leave fiction, it is because history is so G-D fascinating.

To avoid certain military destruction we must destroy the surrounding provinces military forces preemptively before they are strong enough to take our land back. In the process we must procure all the fresh water sources and limit their food and medical supplies. We will take control of the media and high culture so that we can use it to stir up controversy in the surrounding surrogate nations. We can also ally with a global super power like India or China and create another intelligence agency there modeled after our very own original intelligence agency.

Fascinating and so informative. Thank you Dr. Cline.
I believe and have heard elsewhere that late Bronze Age bronze was actually superior or a bit harder than early Iron Age iron. Also you don’t change the base metal of society over night and change doesn’t happen everywhere at once. It would filter around the known world over time. Just think that iron was mined or picked up at one place and processed nearby. That area would be using that iron in everyday life first probably because it’s what they have and it doesn’t require import. This would make it cheaper. Then you wouldn’t export this stuff till you have enough of an excess. Then this gets exported. Small excesses get exported to close places since the freight charges and difficulties would be covered by small export quantities. Once the close market is satisfied then you e port further and further. This has iron filtering across the lands as excess production brings down the price. Then low prices means further transport becomes easier and cheaper. Remember your competing with bronze which has a single source for tin a long way away and freight must have been prohibitive. I thought king tuts dagger was meteoric iron? Testing and all.
I do learn so much from this program. Thank you.
Great lecture! Not a big history fan but this was incredible!!!
