Episode 101: The Great Unraveling - The Bronze Age Collapse

Let's take a deep dive into one of history's most profound and enigmatic mysteries: the abrupt end of the Bronze Age and civilization as a whole. At a time when complex societies, monumental architecture, and sophisticated trade networks spanned the known world, a sudden and dramatic collapse left once-mighty civilizations in ruins. Over a span of just a few generations, major cities were abandoned, scripts forgotten, and trade routes severed. Yet, within this shadow of decline, the seeds for future empires were sown. Join us as we explore the theories, stories, and pivotal moments of this era, piecing together the puzzle of the Bronze Age's unexpected demise and the resilient spirit of humanity that emerged from its ashes. - If you are interested in giving back this September 11th, you can learn more at https://911day.org/ - Thank you for listening Weirdos!
