Bronze Age Collapse (1 Jan 1300 Jahr v. Chr. – 1 Jan 1100 Jahr v. Chr.)

Beschreibung:

"THE MIGRATIONS, DROUGHT, AND DESTRUCTION of what scholars call the Bronze Age Collapse in the late thirteenth century B.C.E. ended the Hittite Empire and weakened the Egyptians. Much was lost, but the old cultures of the ancient Near East survived to nurture new societies. The technology for smelting iron, which developed in Anatolia as well as other places in the world, improved and spread, with iron weapons and tools becoming stronger and thus more important by about 1000 B.C.E. In the absence of powerful empires, the Phoenicians, Kushites, Hebrews, and many other peoples carved out small independent kingdoms until the Near East was a patchwork of states. The Hebrews created a new form of religious belief with a single god and wrote down their religious ideas and traditions in what later became the most significant written document from this period."
