1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed (Revised and Updated)
by Eric H. Cline

In the span of a few decades around 1177 BCE, the great Bronze Age civilizations that had dominated the Mediterranean for centuries suddenly and violently fell apart. The Egyptians. The Hittites. The Mycenaean Greeks. The Assyrians. The Cypriots. The Canaanites. All of them crumbled in a catastrophic collapse that has puzzled historians and archaeologists for generations.
Eric Cline, an archaeologist from George Washington University, pieces together the evidence and asks the big question: what happens when multiple interconnected civilizations fail at the same time? Spoiler: the parallels to the modern world are hard to ignore.
This revised and updated edition includes the latest archaeological discoveries and new analysis published since the original 2014 release.
