1177 BC: A Graphic History of the Year Civilization Collapsed
by Eric Cline & Glynnis Fawkes (illustrator)
1177 BC: A Graphic History of the Year Civilization Collapsed is a graphic adaptation of a 2014 book by American historian and archaeologist Eric Cline. It's a very lively and highly enjoyable way to find out what was happening and what life was like in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean in the Late Bronze Age. It covers the 15th to the 12th centuries BC and shows us both what we know about it, and how we know it (Egyptian steles play a big part). Also out in April, 2024, is After 1177BC, a follow-up book subtitled The Survival of Civilizations, about what happened after the Bronze Age collapse chronicled in 1177BC.
