Volcanoes[edit]

The Hekla 3 eruption approximately coincides with this period, and while the exact date is under considerable dispute, one group calculated the date to be specifically 1159 BC, implicating the eruption in the collapse in Egypt.[22]

Hekla

Hekla on the map of Iceland
The Hekla 3 eruption (H-3) circa 1000 BC is considered the most severe eruption of Hekla during the Holocene.[1] It threw about 7.3 km3 of volcanic rock into the atmosphere,[2] placing its Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) at 5. This would have cooled temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere for several years afterwards.

An eighteen-year span of global cooling that is recorded in Irish bog oaks has been attributed to H-3.[3][4] The eruption is detectable in Greenland ice-cores, the bristlecone pine sequence, and the Irish oak sequence of extremely narrow growth rings. Andy Baker's team of researchers dated it to 1021 BC ±130–100.[5]

A "high chronology" (earlier) interpretation of the above results is preferred by Baker, based also on growth of stalagmites. In Sutherland, northwest Scotland, a spurt of four years of doubled annual luminescent growth banding of calcite in a stalagmite is datable to 1135 BC ±130.[6]
A rival, "low-chronology" interpretation of the eruption has been made by Andrew Dugmore: 2879 BP (929 BC ±34).[7] In 1999, Dugmore suggested a non-volcanic explanation for the Scottish results.[8] In 2000 skepticism concerning conclusions about connecting Hekla 3 and Hekla 4 (probably 2310 BC ±20) with paleoenvironmental events and archaeologically attested abandonment of settlement sites in northern Scotland was expressed by John P. Grattan and David D. Gilbertson.[9] Some Egyptologists have firmly dated the eruption to 1159 BC, and blamed it for famines under Ramesses III during the wider Bronze Age collapse.[10] Dugmore has rebutted this dating.[11] Other scholars have held off on this dispute, preferring the neutral and vague "3000 BP".[12]

So volcanoes.. Volcanoes

Well why am I do this this way

LAZY SCHOLAR

We need not worry about looking through the notes of history one this page..

Instead we have something modern for our studies

Mt. Saint Helen went off


???? LS Armonica???

Wes' studing late bronze age collapse

No.. We in the sam buziness as McD's

Hamburgers?

Nope.. Real estate

You see we like real estate can find historical incidents of simliar price (like real estate) and get a good estimate

???

You see when St Helen went boom we have exact time

we also have numbers

S#$% tons

Of key note

Affected area's and how economics changed


?????

Whispers
Later on we can use similar percentages to study another point of history

Other volcanoes went poof
effects

then take our baseline and compare it to hostorical poofs
like pompey

we can assey the damages by category

Economic should be primary focus..

You see we can test this idea

and see what is its batting average
