Remembering Steve Pelissier... (11-28-24)

I review the beaches and road conditions of the no service zone. 00:00 Introduction 00:24 The no service zones of Mil...

      Hisarlik is not located on a hill, on a hill, on cliffs, as Homer says, and repeats many times in his verses, insisting on such location of Troy. Counting such references to Troy on a high hill, we arrive at a figure of at least 15 repetitions. Apart from Homer, other Greek myths, especially those about the founding of Troy, also insist on a hill or mountain. Hisarlik is only an archaeological tell, i.e., an artificial hillock created by the construction of one city on top of another, and it contains many cities from different periods. The alleged Troy would be TROY VIIa, and it is located at about 8 meters above sea level, while the total tell is about 25 meters high. This observation was already relevant during Schliemann's time. This is a heavy blow to this supposed location.

    While for us, this is a myth, or semi history. But for the Greeks and Romans, it was true, and a part of religious lore. Caesar went to Troy and as a rite, ran around it in the nude.

    I am Norwegian and Snorri Sturluson while also Saxo documented real Odin was the grandson of the last king of Troy (Priam) and went to Scandinavia from the black sea and its why fulhark and Lydian look so similar, and the Longobards claimed descent from the Kings of Troy who were from the scandinavian tribe of winnili. Very fascinating

    • @myhistorycultureandbeachadvent
      @myhistorycultureandbeachadvent 4 місяці тому

      If you look through the comments, you’ll see about the survivors of Troy fleeing to Albania. Also, the mythology says they went to Rome and founded that city. There are a lot of different theories, but why not Scandinavia. It’s a very interesting site.

    It's not a colosseum, i'm from croatia trust me, it's an amphitheatre, known as pula arena, calling it a colosseum is like calling some skyscraper in birmingham or köln an empire state building, the types of buildings and the names of buildings are not the same, like calling st jacob's a notre dame in england, doesn't make sense at all. Other than that, yeah pula arena is well known in european terms at least, it's the place where our national film festival is held, where all big music stars perform, even the pink floyd performed there, but you have number of concerts every season where big names perform in the arena, it even held an ice hockey game once some 10-15 years ago, it's not just some dead monument, it serves its purpose today more than even before exceot the roman times, and is at the same time under heavy conservatorship, but it's in a downtown, right to the sea, it's a part of the city that lives with a city, you can't touch the stones but you can play the music of movies inside, no probs, just follow the conservation rules, that's all.

    When you walk in at 3:30, you are at the place where the first nine musical notes of the chorus of "C'est si Bon" (F, E, Eb, F, G, A, G, F, D) came to the mind of Nice composer Henri Betti (1917-2005) when he looked at bras presented in the window of a "Scandale" lingerie boutique ! At the time, this avenue was called "Avenue de la Victoire".
