The bronze age collapse was in 1177 bce and the assyian empire actually was one of two (also Egypt) who actually survived although much diminished. So realistically, the apocalypse this guy was waiting for took another 1600 years to show up and didn't even take out the nation he was in at the time, which WAS STILL AROUND.

Old times are fucking crazy, yo.
