In this, I agree with Jennings 2011, who
has written recently about globalizations and the
ancient world. See also previously Sherratt 2003, in an
article published a decade ago before the correlations
became even more vivid, and now the MA thesis written
under my direction by Katie Paul
(2011).

On the rise and fall of empires, particularly from a
world-systems viewpoint, which has engendered much
discussion, see Frank 1993; Frank and Gillis 1993; Frank
and Thompson 2005. In addition, a conference was
recently held in Jerusalem (December 2012) entitled
“Analyzing Collapse: Destruction, Abandonment and
Memory”
(http://www.collapse.huji.ac.il/the-schedule),
but the proceedings have not yet been

Kitchen 1982: 238-39; cf. Monroe 2009:
33-34 and n. 28. Some Egyptologists put the eighth year
of Ramses III slightly earlier (1186BC) or slightly
later (1175BC), since the dates for the ancient
Egyptian pharaohs and their years of rule are not
completely certain but rather are approximate and are
often adjusted according to the whims and desire of
individual archaeologists and historians; here the years
of Ramses’s rule are taken to be 1184–1153BC.

dating the destruction of Lachish VI to 1130—I
suggested it not on the basis of C14 dates but on
the basis of the assumption that the Egyptians must
have held Lachish as long as they held Megiddo and
Beth Shan located further north, and based on the
statue of Rameses VI in Megiddo these cities must
have existed till about 1130. I still hold to this
view.”

A parallel might be seen in Syria today as well; see now
www.ipsnews.net/2015/03/syrian-conflict-has-underlying-links-to-climate-change-says-study/
for a news report on a study done by Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty
Earth Observatory which suggests “drought may have helped propel the 2011
Syrian uprising.” The article describes the drought as having “destroyed
agriculture in the breadbasket region of northern Syria, driving
dispossessed farmers to cities, where poverty, government mismanagement and
other factors created unrest that exploded in spring 2011.” Thus, just as
with the conclusions reached in this book regarding climate change and
drought in Syria and elsewhere in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean 3200
years ago, the coauthor of the Columbia study stated: “We’re not saying the
drought caused the war. We’re saying that added to all the other stressors,
it helped kick things over the threshold into open
conflict.”
