It was also my understanding that Sardinia (Beeker) had advanced mining and metallurgical capabilities. Including Iron at the time. And that they may have been one of the groups that could have made up the sea people.

Also that as the BAC occurred displaced/disaffected peoples formally from these cities would have swelled the ranks of the “Sea People”.

There were a few sunken ships they found that were carrying a kingdoms worth wealth in ingots and would have caused whoever was on the bad side of that deal ruined.

Any thoughts?
