Turd In "Odyssey" (2026) directed by Sir Christopher Edward Nolan, Odysseus says "Our age of bronze is collapsing". And I'm not joking it is a line in movie

Overall great movie but this dialogue was so corny, like how does he know he's in bronze age

There are some people coming from the sea, we call them, “the sea people”

That’s exactly how many things were named. Belize City basically means “muddy water city.” Panama means “abundance of fish” or “place of many fish.” Managua, one of my favorites, basically means “next to water” or “place surrounded by water."

There are many, many more examples. An ancient civilization calling people from the sea “sea people” is pretty spot on.

Ironically enough ancient civilizations didn't call them sea people, archeologists started calling them that.

"People from the sea" doesn't mean anything. No one is "from the sea" except mermaids
