Episode #105 Late Holocene Bronze Age Collapses Correlated? Mega-mammals Extinction / Little Ice Age

Summary

In this episode of the Randall Carlson Podcast, the hosts delve into the dating and identification of geological strata, exploring the implications of the Holocene's redefinition. They discuss prehistoric cultures in New Mexico and the catastrophic events that led to the collapse of Late Bronze Age civilizations in the Eastern Mediterranean. Finally, they examine the natural factors influencing climate change and the inadequacies of current mitigation efforts.

Key takeaways

• 1Examination of pre-Clovis cultures coexisting with mega-mammals in New Mexico 22,000 years ago.
• 2Discussion of Late Bronze Age civilization collapses caused by catastrophic events.
• 3Analysis of the Little Ice Age's impact on the Holocene before post-WWII CO2 increases.
• 4Claims that current climate mitigation efforts may increase vulnerability to natural factors.

Yeah, it changes in the sun. Yes, we were. And we could pick up on that theme. I've been kind of focusing, you know, we focus so much time on the late glacial maximum, the younger driest period to transition out. And I've always felt like I've been neglecting the Holocene. But now since I've been working with you guys, and you guys are the Holocene working group. Yeah, we are. Yeah. The Holocene. Yeah. I feel like that it's time to remedy that neglect and look further into it. So I think, weren't we talking about the sun kind of in the context of some of the changes that we've actually seen during the Holocene? Yes. Yeah. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. And that's worth looking into in more detail because, God, there's so much interesting stuff coming out that nobody was even imagining 10 years ago. That's really confirming the, what I would call the dynamic model of Earth history rather than the stable model of Earth history. ...
