The Great Collapse of Civilizations

The sea peoples terrorize the levant. They skirted the shore line in ships, marched down through the coasts of the levant and eventually defeated them. Rameses inscriptions boldly state that no country was able to oppose them until him. An especially poignant example is a letter ond in the destruction layer at ugarit from the last king of that city seeking help from the king in cyprus. Unfortunately for ugarit no help arrived. And ugarit was burned to the ground at the end of the bronze age,. The great trading city was never reoccupied.
