my favourite part about this is the meteoric iron some accounts of sea peoples indicate they had superior weaponry that could easily break existing swords which would have been possible only if either they knew the secret of arsenical bronze (possible) or they had access to meteoric iron that could be cold forged into/onto weapons i think its pretty badass if some poo poo falls from the sky and all of a sudden youre capable of conquering the entire 'world'

quote:My father, behold, the enemy's ships came (here); my cities(?) were burned, and they did evil things in my country. Does not my father know that all my troops and chariots(?) are in the Land of Hatti, and all my ships are in the Land of Lukka?... Thus, the country is abandoned to itself. May my father know it: the seven ships of the enemy that came here inflicted much damage upon us.
