They were especially active in the 13th century BC. Though the extent and origin of the upheavals remain uncertain, Sea Peoples are believed responsible for the destruction of old powers such as the Hittite empire. The Egyptians waged two wars against them (1236-23 BC and งใ 1198-66). The only major tribe to settle permanently in Palestine were the Peleset (i.e., Philistines).
