		According to the Bamboo Annals, the collapse of the dynasty and the rise of the Shang dynasty (independently approximated to 1618 BC) was accompanied by "'yellow fog, a dim sun, then three suns, frost in July, famine, and the withering of all five cereals".
		1479 BC according to the British chronology advocated by Gardiner, University College of London, et al, and that Ipuwer is issueing his report at some point immediately after the destruction of Egypt caused by this eruption.
		Galanopoulos argue that the error in date and size could be caused by a mistranscription of the Ancient Egyptian or Mycenaean Linear B symbol for "hundred" as "thousand" (the former is unlikely because there would be little confusion in the visual appearance of hieroglyphic symbols of Egyptian numeric values).

	Sumerian civilization
		The basis for the chronology after about 1450 BC is provided by the data in the Assyrian and Babylonian king lists, which can often be checked by dated tablets and the Assyrian lists of eponyms (annual officials whose names served to identify each year).
		It is, however, still uncertain how much time separated the middle of the 15th century BC from the end of the 1st dynasty of Babylon, which is therefore variously dated to 1594 BC ("middle"), 1530 BC ("short"), or 1730 BC ("long" chronology).
		One of the most important questions that has to be met when dealing with "organization" and "city life" is that of social structure and the form of government; however, it can be answered only with difficulty, and the use of evidence from later periods carries with it the danger of anachronisms.

		BC were discovered, and they contain urgent pleas to the Egyptian Pharaoh Akenaten, asking him to do something about the "Apiru" which were invading in sizeable numbers and taking over parts of Canaan.
		At the same time as the influx of the "Apiru," Dr. Lawrence Stager of Harvard University discovered that during the 12th century BC, there was an accompanying increase in the number of villages in the hills on the West Bank of the Jordan River (between Hebron and Shechem) --an area of about 2,600 square miles.
		In addition, evidence may show that the Exodus event actually happened in about 1446 B.C., which is exactly the right date to harmonize with the 480 years specified in the biblical text.

	Kingdoms of Anatolia - Hurrians
		The best theory is that they emerged in circa 2000 BC from the mountains to the north and west to occupy the upper Tigris Valley and the upper Euphrates.
		Although the Hurrians became a dominant political force in their own right in the region of Urkesh, their rise to greatness seems to have been triggered around four hundred years after their arrival by a new influx of settlers.
		By the thirteenth century BC, the Hurrians had been blotted out by the Hittites and the Assyrians, and they ceased being significant participants in international affairs.

		Thus in Sumer, as in Egypt, it is the third Millennium BC that modern scientific aids for establishing absolute chronologies are as vital to the text-aided archaeologist as they are at all times to his text-free colleagues.
		It is increasingly the convention that bc is written when using simple, uncalibrated radiocarbon dates, and the capitals BC only when the dates are expressed in calendar years after calibration.
		For the present, the importance of radiocarbon dating for Palestine is concentrated on the prehistoric periods and the third millennium BC, where the independent historic chronologies are either unavailable or known to be fallible.

	Athena Review, 3,3: Minoan Crete: The Court Compounds of Minoan Crete
		A quick glance at the map of Crete (fig.2) highlights the proximity and density of such public buildings, making it more than obvious that the time is ripe to reconsider the evidence for the Minoan political situation on the one hand, and the interpretation of the function of these "palaces" on the other hand.
		The Middle Minoan IB period, around 2000 BC, is usually regarded as the period when the first palaces were being built, approximately at the same time that writing (Linear A and Cretan Hieroglyphic), polychrome, wheel-made pottery, and other features were introduced (perhaps owing to the influence of increased contacts with the Near East).
		It is now clear that parts of the building and the Central Court already go back to the middle of the third millennium BC, to a phase called Early Minoan IIB, and that their establishment presented a sudden decision to modify entirely an existing settlement.
