The Romans & Ancient Cities of Latium and Umbria
Ever wonder what happened to a territory after it was overthrown by the indomitable Roman Army? Within the Roman conquered territories of Latium and Umbria we'll tour several ancient cities including Alatri, Fregellae and Amelia, and see how the land was divided up between the defeated inhabitants and the soldiers who stayed behind to occupy the newly acquired land. We'll even look around a spectacular new home of a wealthy Roman citizen.
Roman Umbria is a modern name for one of the 11 administrative regions into which the emperor Augustus divided Italy. The main source for the regions is the Historia Naturalis of Pliny the Elder, who informs his readers he is basing the geography of Italy on the discriptio Italiae, "division of Italy," made by Augustus. The Sexta Regio ("6th Region") is called Umbria complexa agrumque Gallicam citra Ariminium, "Umbria including the Gallic country this side of Rimini."
Umbria is named after a proto-Italic people, the Umbri, who were gradually subjugated by the Romans in the 4th through the 2nd centuries BC. Although it passed the name on to the modern region of Umbria, the two coincide only partially. Roman Umbria extended from Narni in the South, northeastward to the neighborhood of Ravenna on the Adriatic coast, thus including a large part of central Italy that now belongs to the Marche; at the same time, it excluded the Sabine country (generally speaking, the area around modern Norcia) and the right bank of the Tiber, which formed part of Roman Etruria: for example Perusia (the modern Perugia) was not part of Roman Umbria; and Sarsina, the birthplace of Plautus, is regularly stated to have been "in Umbria" - which it was, but is not now: Sarsina is in the modern province of Forlì, in Emilia-Romagna.
The importance of Umbria in Roman and medieval times was intimately bound up with the Via Flaminia, the consular road that supplied Rome and served as a military highway into and out of the City: for this reason once the Roman empire collapsed, Umbria became a strategic battleground fought over by the Church, the Lombards and the Byzantines, and suffered consequently, becoming partitioned among them and disappearing from history. The modern use of "Umbria" is due to a renaissance of local identity in the 17th century.

I love how Europeans "discover" cities and sites that the locals have already know about for thousands of years!
First, the Aztecs are not ancient. They arrived around 1300. Second, the Aztecs were the last immigrants to arrive. Third, the Aztecs were savages, uncivilized. Fourth, the Aztecs were brutal colonizers. Everybody hated them. Fifth, enslaved war prisoners were worked to death erecting buildings. Hernan Cortes led the non Aztecs in a war of liberation.
Don't understand why more haven't watched this.

Древнего чеченского аланского народа тайп (род) Чианти один из древнего этрусков империи племен, который после падение Трои ушли на Кавказ,а другие в Италию, основали сакральную крепость Чианти и непосредственно принимали участия при строительстве древнего г. Рим. Города и гробницы Чианти этрусков Такие сооружения можно встретить у Кортоны, в Чианти и Вей. В 6-ом веке до н.э. династия Чианти этрусков правила городе Рим, после нашествия византийской державы и арабского халифата на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи слилась с разными финикийскими племенами. В 13-веке. Многие на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи из за китайского - монгольского нашествия, покидают сакральную территорию древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи и мигрируют в Европу и Италию в провинцию Чианти к своим сородичам,которые в последствии прославляют эту провинцию прекрасными винами (секрет вин чиантийцы) китайцы - монголы из за сильного чиантийцами оказанного ожесточенного сопротивления, разрушают до основания на реке.

После уничтожения территории древнего чеченской арийского народа республики (sassaniden reich) византийской державы и арабский халифат войска двинулись на территорию древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи. Этот факт упоминается у арабского халифата историка ал-Масуди о территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи - прямые потомки Алан в (Византийских документах они как Цанар), одной их самых славных частей элл нахов (алан) круга племен и народов. Зимой 853 года на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи совершили самое великое деяние в своей истории. На южных склонах Большого Кавказа, у горловины Дарьяльского ущелья, они сначала остановили и затем наголову разбили 120 тысячную армию Багдадского арабского халифа, вторгшуюся в Закавказье. Об этой войне, об этой победе и о происхождении Чианти этрусков (цанар) пишет.Знаменитый арабского халифата ученый-энциклопедист ал-Масуди в книге «Мурудж аз-захаб» («Золотые истоки»), написанной в 20-30-е годы X века, приводит такие сведения: «между приграничной областью г. Калаки (Тифлис) и уже упомянутой крепостью «Аланские ворота» лежит царство территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи, Царь которого называется керист ву на финикийском - греческом (хорэпископос), что является обычным титулом здешних царей… Они христиане.

Еще в 1913 году на сакральной территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи г. Калаки (Тифлис) в канцелярии наместника Его императорского величества на Кавказе вышла книга, Константина Михайловича Туманова с названием "О доисторическом языке Закавказья".Автор, приводя в доказательство огромное количество топонимов (названий гор, рек, хребтов, ущелий, поселений и других географических объектов), а также данных из исторических трудов древних авторов, летописей, преданий, археологических и прочих материалов, приходит к однозначному выводу о том, что предки на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этруски (цанар) империи были самым первым населением на территории всего Закавказья и южнее в плоть до Африканского континента. Эрибун (Ереван) название ,переводится исключительно на чеченский язык - в далине изба, дом, хижина.Известный исследователь В.П. Алексеев в своих изысканиях подтверждает, что этрусков - урарты представляют собой не только физических но и языковых предков чеченцев. В последнем издании материалов по истории СССР также отмечается о том, что урартский - этрусков язык принадлежит к особой языковой семье, наиболее близким к ним является современный чеченский язык. М.Л. Хачикян, Мар.Н.Я. в своих научных трудах отмечают о том,что на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этруски (цанар) империи Передней Азии, начиная с середины 3-го тысячелетия до.н.эры, до-конца 1-го тысячелетия д.н.эры был тем народом, культурное влияние которых на остальные народы данного региона в плоть до Египта и Северного Средиземноморья, было доминирующим. Культурное влияние предков чеченцев (урарто - этрусков) на европейские народы не ограничивалось данными языка.Такие мировые произведения литературы и фольклeра, как " Миф о сотворении мира", "Миф о Пигмалионе", "Миф о Прометее" и другие по мнению большинства мировых ученных возникли в пeрвые на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этруски (цанар) империи в Месопoтамии, ныне представленных на Кавказе.Чеченцы (Нахчи).Именно в Месопотамии и в частности в Урарту зародилась школа и университет, где обучали различным наукам, письму, счету, геометрии, алгебре.Были найдены клинописные таблички, свидетельствующие о знаниях в этих научных областях.В одной из них доказывается теорема о подобии прямоугольных треугольников, которую приписывают финикийскому (греческому) ученному Евклиду. Историкам стало известно, что в городе Шадумуме (Урарту) её приняли за 17 веков до Евклида. Обнаружены также математические таблицы, с помощью которых чеченцы умножали, извлекали квадратные корни, возводили различные степени, выполняли деление и вычисляли проценты.
На рубеже V и VI в.византийской державы и арабского халифата историки объясняют происхождение древнего чеченского арийского народа республики (sassaniden reich) названия слова «Злл Нах» как арабского халифата слово (Аль) образовалось на сакральной территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи. Они все ссылаются на имя, которое носил легендарный родоначальник рода Саса наха, которому при распределении северных стран «выпала в наследство элл нахов (Алан) равнина с её горной частью, начиная от реки Ерасх (Аракс) до крепости, называемой Ха Наха Ар Керт страна эта по кротости нрава Саса наха названа (Элл Нах) на арабском халифата языке Алвах,. Это слово приводится, как имя представителей сакральной территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи рода благородных Саса наха который наследовал поля и горы. ua-cam.com/video/yAoITVXzpSA/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
Мировые ученые (среди них - всемирно известные Г.Горбигер и К.Гаусгоффер), которые доказали такую концепцию; Арийцы, в том числе и предки германцев, как раса зародились 30-40 тысяч лет назад в восточной Азии, там, где ныне находится пустыня Гоби. Там процветала высокая цивилизация, которая затем погибла в результате катастрофы, приведшей к появлению пустыни. Часть на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи, посвященная в тайные черные знания, осталась на Тибете, в Шамбале. Остальные переселились на Кавказ. Затем на территории древнего чеченский аланский народ Чианти этрусков (цанар) империя продвинулась в Северную Европу, а на Кавказе остался Асгард - очаг на территории древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи дух, где сохранилась Чистая арийская кровь. Там - арийский корень. Это священная земля всех предков арийцев, говорящих теперь на разных языках. На Кавказе в Асгарде сосредоточилось все Позитивное, что таит в себе древнего чеченского арийского народа республики кровь -такова была основа господствовавше го в Германии учения, которое, по словам Гитлера, было даже чем-то большим, чем религия.108 И здесь древнему чеченскому народу наступает момент удивиться, ибо из дальнейшего мы узнаем, что хранителями "духа Асгарда чистой арийской крови" был воспринята сакральная территория древнего чеченского аланского народа Чианти этрусков (цанар) империи. ua-cam.com/video/wZEGBjCB98I/v-deo.html

Wow! Why hadn't I associated the Phoenicians with Lebanon? This is a great doc., visually, amazingly informative, and easy on the ear. ❤
Because people usually associate Lebanon with war 😢 which is unfortunate. If you ever get the chance to visit, you will not regret it. Amazing country with so much history! There are Maronite churches that you can visit, where they built the churches on top of Phoenician temples, and more recently, they have removed the floors and replaced it with glass so you can marvel at the old phoenician ruins.
So they built all these mega structures, careful urban planning for their city,sanitary, agriculture and trade whilst at the same time randomly picking folks for human sacrifices 😂😂😂.Can you imagine if todays world was wiped out only for some next generation of species to come over,analyze our structures and civilization then conclude they practice burning eachother with high temperature radiating steel like tubes 😂😂😂 Then they read some paper stating there must be sacrifices to earn or fight for freedom and democracy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 how will they know what freedom means!?!? or even democracy!?!?😂😂😂😂 This stuff just doesn't make any sense
From analyzing ancient DNA, it was discovered that modern Greeks are descendant of ancient Mycenaeans, which are also closely related to Minoans. Researchers suggest that this can be explained by the migration of the earliest farmers who sailed across the Aegean, a crossroads of civilizations.
they didn't have gods ...and there was no human sacrifice

Leave it to the Romans to use and abuse the Etruscans, who taught them government, architecture, infrastructure, etc. The Romans completed their conquest of Etruria in 265-264 BC, the Etruscans were absorbed and assimilated, and the Romans destroyed most evidence of Etruscan civilization.

Troy was Greek
The legend was that Athens owed a tribute every year to King Minos of 9 maidens and young men.. who jumped over the bull horns ,flipped onto its back , them flip off the back to the ground behind the bull. I grew upon Crete and it is indeed a paradise! The Museum of Heraklion has vast exhibits of frescoes and double headed axes, statues etc. I lived just a few miles from Knossos and went there many times. As a child you could still sit on the stone throne in one of the rooms . The legend is that Minos’ wife fell in love with a beautiful white bull and the Minotaur ( which was half human half bull) was laced in the prison of the labyrinth. There is a large stone statue of bull horns on the edge of the perimeter .It is a n area prone to earthquakes.
