tion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> immigrant <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Peoples</strong> groups could only have<br />
been <strong>the</strong> ultimate outcome <strong>of</strong> a prolonged process that,<br />
typically, would traverse some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r types in our<br />
range <strong>of</strong> models:<br />
a. immediately after local settlement, <strong>the</strong> most<br />
likely model would be that <strong>of</strong> conquest<br />
(model 3), which, as a result <strong>of</strong> progressive<br />
subsequent political and social accommodation,<br />
would soon give way to<br />
b. <strong>the</strong> immigrant model (model 2) – to end, in<br />
most cases, with<br />
c. a quasi-melting pot situation (model 6)<br />
where most specific <strong>Sea</strong> People cultural and<br />
nomenclatural traits would have been shed,<br />
in preparation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> total eclipse <strong>of</strong> any<br />
reminiscence <strong>of</strong> a <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Peoples</strong> past, among<br />
<strong>the</strong> incorporated vestiges <strong>of</strong> a formerly <strong>Sea</strong><br />
People population in <strong>the</strong> Levant.<br />
