Sea Peoples

 

I hypothesis who the Sea People were.

The sea people as the Egyptians called them were the remnance of the navy and sea power the Cycladic/Minoan people.

When an eruption occurs that is as violent and devastating as the Thera eruption was. The soil and aquatic life is fallow for a number of years if not decades after. Although life will return, it takes a long time to grow back. I reference ST Helens eruption of only a small percent of the power of the Thera is still very easily visible from miles away more than 30 years later.

So it only makes logical sense the Cycladic culture would have taken their powerful navy and attempted to conquer other nations and taken as much land to reestablish a new powerbase. Unfortunately for the sea people in Egypt; they lost. Does not mean they lost everywhere, but it does mean by record they lost in Egypt.
