Spartan History Podcast - 010. A Storm on the Horizon

010. A Storm on the Horizon

07/05/20 • 52 min

Welcome back to Spartan History Podcast, in this months episode we'll start a two part investigation into the Bronze age collapse of eastern Mediterranean civilisation.

So in this, the first part, the scene for collapse will be set. Focusing on the empires and city-states that were within the Mycenaean sphere of influence to understand the various factors at play during this period of turmoil.

The mysterious sea people are central to my narrative and as I work through the source material I'll pay particular attention to the goings on of popular histories scapegoats.

I finish by leaving the final piece of the puzzle up in the air, the fate of the Mycenaean's. They will be the entirety of my focus for part 2.

Hope you all enjoy and take care.

Previous Episode

009. In the footsteps of Heroes

Welcome back to Spartan History Podcast, in this months episode we'll be taking a look at a few of my favourite myths.

First, the story of Perseus and Andromeda. From a difficult beginning the hero would rise above his apparently low birth to become one of the premier monster hunters of the age.

Next it will be the story of Bellerophon and Pegasus that will be our focus. He conquered all but would finish his days in misery, a tale of mans reach exceeding his grasp.

Lastly the tragedy of Oedipus will round out the trilogy of myths. A tale of despair and woe, the devastating story of fate's inescapable grip.
I hope you all enjoy the episode, and please take good care.

Next Episode

011. A Heroes Ending

Welcome back to Spartan History Podcast, this will be part 2 of my series on the Bronze age collapse, and the final episode set in the Heroic/Bronze period.

After having established all of the major players in the eastern Mediterranean region in the previous episode, it's time to discover the fate of Homer's Achaean, aka the Mycenaean's.

I expound upon the various ills besetting their society and set the seen for what I believe to be a mass migration event at the close of the age. Hopefully, building a strong case for the Greeks participation in the Sea people events of the period.

Hope you all enjoy and take care.
