Climate Change and the End of the Bronze Age in the Mediterranean

David Kaniewski (Toulouse) presents new climate proxy data relevant to the understanding of the so-called Bronze Age collapse in the Eastern Mediterranean 3200 years ago. This is a much discussed topic, especially among Bronze Age Archaeologists and social theorists. New climate proxy records developed by Kaniewski and his team, and synthesized records from elsewhere, are beginning to clarify the picture of the interaction of climatic change and human responses.
