Product Description
After 1177 B.C.: The Survival of Civilizations Following the Bronze Age Collapse by Eric Cline
“A landmark book: lucid, deep, and insightful... You cannot understand human civilization without studying what happened on, before, and after 1177 B.C.” —Nassim Nicholas Taleb, bestselling author of The Black Swan
In this gripping sequel to the bestselling 1177 B.C., acclaimed archaeologist Eric Cline explores what happened after the fall of the great Late Bronze Age civilizations. As empires across the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean collapsed due to invasion, rebellion, famine, and the breakdown of trade, the world entered a time of chaos—and transformation.
After 1177 B.C. chronicles how humanity adapted during this pivotal four-century period. Some civilizations vanished, while others evolved into new powers like the Phoenicians, Philistines, Israelites, Neo-Hittites, Neo-Assyrians, and Neo-Babylonians. Amid the upheaval, remarkable innovations—including iron tools and the alphabet—emerged, laying the groundwork for a new world order.
Spanning from the collapse of Bronze Age kingdoms to the first Olympic Games in 776 B.C., this book reveals a story of resilience and rebirth. Cline’s narrative shows how societies respond to catastrophe—and offers profound lessons for our modern world.
Far from a Dark Age, it was the dawn of a new era of human creativity and endurance.
