@19:00 the situation of the 10. and 11. century AD is described, as droughts and also cold spells documented in the written records. I assume (but it is not explicitly said) that this change in climate is also seen in changes in the pollen samples of the lakes. How does these changes compare to the changes seen for the 12. century BC? Are they similar or different?
And is there any documentation, maybe from the 11. century AD, how a sequence of 10 year drought, 2 years recovery, 10 years drought would kill the people? Does it kill the livestock, the children, or even the adults?
Thanks. This is by far one of the most interesting series on the internet
Just fabulous. Thank you both.
