There are strong links to Urnfield culture, but there are also several names of Mediterranean peoples from Europe, so perhaps it was a coalition of pirates or raiders from various regions of Europe.

Many different people from many different locations.

The Egyptians called them the "9 Bows" and identified several different groups from several different locations. They knew far more about who they were than pseudo historians let on. History Channel type documentaries like playing up the mystery of the Sea People, because that's more fun, but we really do have a pretty good notion of who they were.

Due to bad harvests, poor economies, and unpaid soldiers, there were refugees and roading marauders everywhere at the time. People looking for new fertile lands to inhabit because their own countries had famine and what little they had was taken by other marauders.

Some were Greeks, some were Canaanites (proto Hebrews), some Syrian, and some of Babylonian origins. The Egyptians actually did a pretty good job of documenting this.

But the majority of them probably were Canaanite as the styles depicted on Egyptian tombs match how Egyptians usually depicted the Canaanite styles.

And my personal belief is the Egyptian victory over the Sea People is what led to many Jews (well really, they were Canaanite at the time and didn't follow Yahweh primarily) getting enslaved in Egypt, which is what gave us the story of Exodus.

What's the deal with Sea People? They're not from the sea and they're not people.

Just a spontaneous band of roving pirates. They kept growing by absorbing more and more ships along their way of thievery. Up to the point where it became like a swarm of locusts, only able to sustain itself by destroying everything in its path.

They had families, there are women and wagons on Egyptian art representing them. So no they weren't just pirates

From the sweaty jungles of congo, as revenge for the white racist Phoenicians oppressing them with their ships ivory trade. The Black Sea men with their virile BBC semen invaded all the brown and white people through the sea, turning the ships against the shipwrights, and blacking the multitudes

coastlines of the north-east mediterranean.

to give you some perspective, the sea peoples were to ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia what the Germanic tribes were to the classical world which btw, traces its origin to the sea peoples.
