[QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by xyyman: [qb] @ Dr Winters. You are the History expert, so I not going to pretend to be one. But there are different points of view on who the Sea Peoples were. Maybe you can enlighten me. Genetics is my pivotal point of reference. That said. IIRC Sergi suggested that the Sea Peoples were Sardinians. Sardinian is currently classified as "European" based upon geopolitics but it's Neolithic civilization is EurAfrican. Meaning what? Sardinia and Crete were the only civilizations to the west of Egypt that had the fortitude and technology to challenge AE at that time. The older European Barbarian tribes had not conquered Crete and Sardinia at that point in time. I do know SOME history. [/qb][/QUOTE]The Sea People were nomadic people who sailed into the Egyptian Delta and began to occupy centers of civilization around the Mediterranean Sea after 1400. It appears that the eruption of the volcanoe at Thera led to a decline in many civilizations, that allowed the Indo-Europeans to begin to push Blacks from centers of civilization. The Sea People were a mixed group, but many of the warriors appear to have been Hittites given their headdresses. Researchers claim that "soon after Thera blew its top. Tsunamis spawned by the eruption would have swamped its naval fleet and coastal villages first off, historians think. A drop in temperatures caused by the massive amounts of sulphur dioxide spouted into the atmosphere then led to several years of cold, wet summers in the region, ruining harvests. The lethal combination overran every mighty Minoan stronghold in less than 50 years." These tectonic events left the Black civilization centers in disarray, ripe for conquering by the I-E speaking people who overran most civilizations along the Mediterranean Sea. The Sea People lost the war to the Egyptians but they had no where to go so they stayed in the Levant and Delta. Overtime, these Sea People took control of the area. They were known as Philistines in the Levant, Meshwqesh, Soped and Sea People in Egyptian Delta . The Peleset and Tjeker later became known as the "Philistines" after they had settled in Southern Canaan. [/QB][/QUOTE]
