Were the Sea Peoples from Nuragic Sardinia? #history

[bigedslobotomy]

Everything I’ve seen and read about this collapse points to multiple factors leading to the event. It involved the “sea people”, but it also involved disease, earthquakes, and famine. It was a “perfect storm” which took down all the major civilizations that had civilization at the time, leading to a “dark age.”

We have also found horned bronze age helmets in Denmark and Cyprus.

These guys gave Rameses III one heck of a time.

The hyperwarriors are such a cool aesthetic.

I love how sea peoples are basically popular viking representations.

[rafaellorentz]

The Sardinians were the Vikings of Bronze Age then.

Sardinia was hopping & popping during the Bronze Age. Not a field I’ve done much reading but the archaeological ruins there are amazing. Which this could likely explain?

[CheefSmokealot]

The bronze age collapse I think was helped along by the massive volcano eruption and tsunami on the island of Santorini. The eruption took out half the island and caused a massive tsunami that hit everything around the Mediterranean including Egypt.

Sounds surprisingly similar to the Nordic Bronze Age and Viking warriors from latter ages, I can’t understand how and why the similarities are so prominent

[Glassandcandy]

Fun fact, the current language of Sardinia, sardinian, is the closest living language to Latin still spoken natively today.

Sardinia just constantly gets these kinds of Ws and idk y,

I got some sea people out of a comic book 55 years ago!

[willmosse]

Shardurna and Sardinia sound very similar. Is the suggestion that there is an etymological link then?

[trinamarie]

Also similar figureheads on the ships..

[PepeLepew-rmft]

Sardiniand sound like vikings through black sea from Baltic.

Interesting I first heard of the Sea People years ago, their origin was unknown but now by linking various snippets of information scientists now know where to dig for more treasures.

[montewright]

The bronze’ source can be determined. That oughta help.

[Cannibaltron]

I think SHRDN definitely points to the Sardinians

[pgancedo]

CNN: “Climate change and failure to get a Covid booster was the reason this civilization collapsed “

[nandezification]

It’s not who, but WHAT caused the Bronze Age collapse, which had a cascading effect.
