I suspect a large part of it was the collapse of civilization, at least, in that corner of the world.

What do you mean there was a mythical sea people?! Lol rabbit hole.

The sea people were climate migrants. Actually, we don’t know that much about them except to say Mesopotamia really hated them.

They may have invaded Egyptian time or two, but they really don’t known where they came from.

But it’s almost certain that the massive trade network that was highly specialized and crisscrossed the known world collapsed causing everyone to get isolated.

Tin, for example only came from one place and the mines just stopped producing.
