These "hairy smelly people" had no effect on any of the great civilizations at the end of the Bronze Age. Egypt had some trouble from Libyan invaders but they were defeated. So-called "Sea Peoples" apparently raided some coastal towns but their attacks were no different to the operations of other pirates over the centuries.
