National Capital Area Skeptics (NCAS)

This is an interesting talk on ancient civilizations we heard about in school but ended up not knowing anything about.

There are a number of suspected causes for the collapse of these Mediterranean/Middle East civilizations, two of which are climate change and “Sea People” invaders.

Climate change was temperature REDUCTION back then!

The author states all the suspected causes for Mediterranean/Middle East collapse are present today. The Sea People today, he says, may be ISIS and their brethren. Can you think of another sea people candidate that causes mischief?

The author states we would not be where we are if these collapses had not occurred and spurred change. This ties in neatly with Thomas Sowell’s “Conquests and Cultures: An International History”. Conquest often eventually results in advancement for the conquered.

Be seeing you
