In an alternate timeline, The Sea Peoples are Romans sailing to England, the Anglo-Saxons, the Normans. Things became fuzzy when the English themselves became other civilization's Sea Peoples.


I would wager that almost every civilization has been some other civilization’s sea people at some point in it’s history.


If invaders appear out of ‘nowhere’, it’s usually by boat or on horseback.


Well, at least not civilizations where dreams dry up.


And don't forget the Vikings, who may provide the best analogy to the Sea Peoples.
