"1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed" is an excellent book on the subject, and yes - there are definitely uncanny similarities between the Bronze Age world and the one we live in.

The Fall Of Civilization's Podcast on this subject is also a great introduction https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B965f8AcNbw

(Generally speaking I really recommand this podcast, it has been recommanded on HN before, which is how I first heard of it)

Thanks, I’ve already listened to two episodes since I’ve read your comment; it is indeed very good.

That is a great youtube channel there. The fall of the city of Ur was also a good one
