There's a similar paper out that deals with the Late Bronze Age collapse and the underlying causes of the mega-drought that set the fall of empires in motion. It's becoming clear that long-term natural variability can bring worse extremes than is commonly assumed. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 1/
