@@user-un8tv1pp8m This is misguided. The original comment is referring to the ancient peoples who make up the genetic components of all ethnic Europeans. This includes the white Russians of Slavic descent and Romans. The Mongols and Huns didn’t leave a genetic mark on Europe. At least not in any significant way. as far as Afro Americans, well they’re not Ethnic Europeans. There are European Jews and while I’d agree Europe is a crossroads in some ways, that doesn’t mean there’s not a group of people we clearly identify as Europeans through genetics and culture. That’s what this video is about.
Glad Europeans still have their history and still able to past it down.

A special day when you post a new episode! Thank you Kevin 🌹😊🌻
one of my favourite channels on UA-cam. You never miss man.
Also, origins of Romania video? 👀
Despite there being some awesome history documentaries on UA-cam this is the only one I could find that really explains who the first European people were
The latter part of this video was bringing up ideas similar to ideas that were widespread in the first part of the previous century, but that got entangled with a certain ideology that suddenly lost influence almost 80 years ago. Though it left behind some artifacts such as the words Caucasian being used to refer to Europeans.
Since then, many of these ideas have been more or less taboo. Instead of seing the spread of the Indo-European language as a result of violent conquest, historians and antropologists preferred to describe pre-historic hunter gatherers as mostly peaceful and attibute the spread of the spread of the language to cultural diffusion instead of ethnic conquest and migration.
Only in the last 10-15 years or so have we had the capacity to do the kind of DNA analysis that can give a precise description of the DNA composition of peoples from various areas of Europe, and those have largely confirmed the earlier assumptions that Indo-European migrations were quite violent in nature. In many places, especially in Northern Europe and Britain, virtually all pre-existing male bloodlines (y chromosomes) disappeared during the 3rd millenium BC (and 4th in some places), and were replaced by "steppe-people DNA". And in any given location, the disappearance was quite sudden, often only a couple of centuries.
Meanwhile, female bloodlines (mitochondrial DNA) survived to a much larger extent, usually with half or more of the population coming from local female lineages.
This paints a grizzly picture of invading bands of warriors invading a territory, killing (or at best enslaving) ALL males while taking the young females as wives. And this was not limited to isolated cases. They kept it going systematically for over a millenium, and spread in this manner from Ireland in the west to Myanmar in the east. Later "barbarian" conquerers, including the Vikings, Huns and even Mongols completely pale by comparison.
Definitely not the peaceful "Noble Savage" view of pre-history that has been popular for the last 80 years or so.
thanks for this very interesting story about the origins of europe it was so insightfull and fascinating and also very informative.
Congratulations for your video.
You have really grasped the core of the idea that Europe is much more about cultural than geographic separation from Asia.

Love history and origins of peoples, places, cultures, and religions, how they've morphed and blended into one another.
A fantastic find, your content. *fervent applause*
The thing is, the people of the British isles and Ireland have mixed for so many thousands of years, ethnically it males little difference, if you're from here you likely have ancestors from all of the nations, even those which no longer exist. What is cool about Welsh though is that it's the oldest continuously spoken language, 4000 years old.
You probably celebrated genocide yesterday, Thanksgiving, soulless colonizer.
● The original Europeans were Black Africans, the first humans, the true Hebrews, they created all the original civilizations around the world: Kemet, Mesopotamia, México, Perú, India and China. 🌍

Very intresting mate
The quote from Aristotle is very interesting. They were aware that their level of organization was superior to other civilizations and could be applied on a wider scale. What also happened for a period in Alexander's empire and the states that formed from it, but especially became valid in the case of the Romans.
Why would you say it's superior necessarily? It can be argued both ways. The slavs arguably had a much more egalitarian and just democracy. Greeks had slavery. Aristotle himself owned 5 allegedly.
The democratic aspect is debatable, but the Greeks had both: an advanced civilization and a kind of democracy. They had a major influence on the Roman world and the modern world, which "borrowed" different aspects from the Greek system, and thus Aristotle's intuition came to life. The fact that sometimes in the past there was some kind of democratic organization will influence the progress of the modern age. The organization of the Slavs (and other similar people), on the other hand, allowed for a new beginning without slavery after the fall of the Roman Empire (slavery was also in decline at the end of the Empire). However, as their civilization advanced, they gradually lost their democratic society and fell into feudalism.
@@tudorm6838 it's not debatable really. It's well documented how the slavs governed themselves prior to formation of centralized medieval states. Very similar to the communal way of life of the tgracians who were arguably part of the same language family and likely closely related. You can see the thracian lands almost perfectly match the later lands inhabited by "slavs".
Democracy was not invented by Greeks. Even American natives had very well developed democracies with parliaments believe it or not. Democracy is not rocket science.
@@thatisme3thatisme38 It is not something specific to the Slavs, many areas of the world went through a democratic phase at the beginning of human organization.
This kind of organization did not survive the development of civilization and "evolved" towards slavery, military hierarchy, feudalism, or other forms in which the rich or the powerful had a greater say than the masses. It returned to democracy only in the modern era. The ancient Greeks had a limited democratic model, but one that was "documented", and then read for centuries and thus had influence over time.
@@tudorm6838 I didn't say the slavs were unique did i?
@16:05 That looks like a classic split between Celts and Slavs. Great topic!
@iwantmoney5672 A very interesting post! I learned something new today. I should say "started" to learn something new today as you gave a lot of good "starting" material to investigate. 😀

Bulgars have nothing to do with Thracians.
You got 0 Thracian words, while there are not 160 , but way more Dacian words.
The Thracians fled when you came from Asia.

Wow this was done well.
Cyprus is European because it is Greek. So the culture, language, religion, is European. There is a turkish speaking muslim minority in the occupied zone, but it is just a small minority due to ottoman occupation of the island. And even then, those people used Greek to communicate.
Religiously, Albania and Bosnia have muslim majorities
Linguistically, the Turks hail from a similar place as the Finns, Estonians and Hungarians, the great Eurasian steppes.
Anatolia had always been considered part of the Christian world (the basis for Europe after the rise of Islam, and why Armenia and Georgia are considered European-ish), and with the rise of the Ottomans in the balkans the Ottomans once again became more "European" to the point they were treated as equals by the European powers during the age of Imperialismn an age where European powers saw the "orient" as backwards and inferior.
It is my view that Turkey should be welcomed in the EU some day, just like Armenia and Georgia.
Some day. NOT today. There are tons of problems in needs of fixing, just like in Ukraine, to meet EU quotas. Namely, Erdogan is a big problem because of his whole political stances of Turkish nationalism and anti-secularism
Until the decline of the Ottoman empire and the rise of Greek nationalism, Greeks called themselves "Roman". Much the same, until the fall of the Ottoman empire and the Turkish re-birth with Attaturk, the Turks of the empire called themselves "Roman"
I mention Attaturk and he is a core proponent of this idea that Turkey can very much fit in Europe. The problem is the opposite of Attaturk, the likes of Erdogan. Erdogan, who turned the Hagia Sophia into a mosque and alienated his balkan neighbours by romanticising Ottoman hegemony over the region

Hello from Greece. Great video!
The oldest, by far, civilisations known and proven today are on the lower Danube, mostly in current Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine and Serbia. Aprox 6000 B.C. Look for Cucuteni and Turdas-Vinca. Amazing arts and even a primitive form of writting, on Tartaria tablets, which is sustained by recent discovery. At least 13 layered large city walls burned successively. Some of the greek gods are of Tracian origin, much older.
Excellent recap of europe origins, could you provide your sources on the greek writings you mentioned? thanks

Fascinating
note the similar 'Eurynome', another daughter of tethys and the heoine of an ophic creation myth described by robert graves, which is taken to mean 'wide wanderer'. these two, europe / eurynome may describe two aspects of the divine (that which is), the one describing its face first encountered and the latter (wide wandering) the capacity of the divine to act according to its own whim and under its own impetus.
Great 👍
Greek here.
The name “Europa” can be etymologized as "She Who Has Wide (large) Eyes”, or "She Who Sees Widely (far)", or "She Of Wide Appearance, She Who Appears Wide".
The first Europa is the daughter of Oceanus and Tethys. She personifies the Continent. Her sisters are Asia and Libya (Africa). Her name should be etymologized as "She Of Wide Appearance, She Who Appears Wide".
The second Europa is the daughter of Phoenix “Phoenician”, or his father Agenor "He Who Leads Men" and of Telephassa "She Who Illuminates Far, or From Afar". She personifies the transmission of animal husbandry from the Levant, Phoenicia to the Greeks. Her name should be etymologized as "She Who Has Wide (large) Eyes” (cow). Zeus transformed into a bull in order to abduct her. Her brother Cadmus (of unknown etymology) received an oracle from Delphi to follow the first cow he would meet and to the place where she would lie down, there to found a city, Thebes. Cadmus is the father of Semele and the grandfather of Dionysus who as Zagreus was slain having taken the form of a bull. Zagreus himself is indeed horned and Semele-Thyone is "She Who Is Impetuous/Vehement". In the marriage of Cadmus to Harmonia, Goddess of fertility Demeter mated with Iasion “He Of Cure” and gave birth to Philomelus "He Who Loves The Farm Animals", patron of husbandry and agriculture. Cadmus is married to Harmonia because husbantry brings harmony. The name of Europa's other brother Cilix is etymologized as "He Who Has Twisted Horns".
All the connections you've made with the various Earth Goddesses, as well as the non-Greek etymologies, are irrelevant. There is much more to it.
As an Israelite and an historian I am fascinated by the fact that you cited all of that without mentioning that they were Black people.😂 Wow. There really is something fundamentally wrong about so-called nonblack people.😅 Wow
It's funny how Europe is always an "idea", but never Africa or Asia.
It's coming from the same ppl that clamor about diversity. At its root it is all anti-white bullshit.
Tactics used by the media to give Europe no bounds so as to divide people and break European identity
What
The border between Europe and Asia itself is just an idea. In reality it is a single continent.
"... Europe is always an "idea", but never Africa or Asia"
Where ever have you gotten such a weird idea?
Asia and Africa are some of the most powerfully ideas in European culture. mainly because of the uter ignorance that european had about those places. And even after the age of exploration, those influences were amplified in an almost exponential way.
Those "ideas and myths" have influence in every aspects of European views of the world since forever.
I am doubting if you are European if can have such thoughts. Are from the US or something like that?
We also have some "ideas" about those places.
Really suprisingly entertaining, id love to see you do one on Armenia 👀👀👀
Interesting, informative video.

Chapter 3 onward is highly interesting and would advise looking into Wilhelm Schmidt
This seems to belong to the more rare class of videos in which many of the visuals actually illustrate the spoken text and are therefore worth absorbing. That requires some real knowledge and competence rather than just fuzzy association and a stockpile of pictures. Good work!
The step herders had a very well established system of creating client states. It would make sence that they would have more of a DNA impact in lands that were more sparsely populated and why in those areas they developed more distinct sub groups. The whole time they create client states they mix in with those groups who they themselves move on to create more client states. So the mixing of eastern herders snowballs to the west each time becoming less esh and more whg. Not just conquest but adoption. God I love this subject
Paleolithic then neolithic people's andWestern hunter gatherers and Eastern hunter gatherers, indo European steppes nomadic herders moving into various areas and great admixtures of people and cultures developing. History and origins very fascinating. 😊

SO? What of that? Was there ever any doubt about that? I can't see any European that wouldn't know such a basic 6 year old fact.
Why not claim that 1 apple + 1 apple = 2 apples?
@@estranhokonsta It's sad that this is not common knowledge in certain places among Europeans, however, many pro EU people try to make EU a synonym for Europe. This is why it's important to constantly tell people that EU isn't Europe. EU is actively anti Europe as of now.

Thracians were semi barbarians bcs there were many Greek cities colonies ( some names untill today) by Athenians Spartans and later Makedonian allies. Thracian kings refered even to Homeruc Iliad- allies to Greeks or Trojans and later Greeks used them as mercenaries to their civil wars
Bulgarians as turkis tribe arrived hundred yrs later and mixed with north Thracian tribes

You and Gnostic informant are on fire
The Greeks separated Europe from Asia as separate continent.Also The Greeks set the first rules for harmony and beauty.For the Greeks the most handsome man was Adonis with the perfectly trained body , and Apollo the God of Sun , with harmonious face and bright blond hair.
Teoretically, we could give up the 6-7 continent system because it was developed from the 3 continents perceived by the greeks, which only encompasses N Africa, S Europe and Asia(made of Anatolia, Central and South)
Pretty sure my Gaelic family says Europe was named after Epona.
That's an interesting speculation.
Lol what would the Gaels know? They were in the backwaters, even the Romans couldn't be bothered to settle amongst them.
How can you possibly resist clicking this video? 😂

Please share the correct spelling of the koribates the armed dancers, can’t seem to find a thing about them!!
Excellent.
Why do you show maps of modern greece instead of the map of the greeks of the time? it's misleading as western Anatolia and southern Italy is a more relevant representation.
FACTS !!! Also, he mentions the country of 🦃iyeye multiole times when talking about Antiquity! 🤣
Turdaș - Vinča Culture in Romania.
The oldest civilizations in Europe were in the Balkans and on the territory of Romania.
Somewhere between the 5th and 3rd millennia BC, there was a European culture that spread around the Danube River, on the territory of Romania, Serbia, Bulgaria and Macedonia, but obvious traces of it can be found throughout the Balkan Peninsula. It is about the Turdaș - Vinča culture.
The name of the culture comes from the locality of Turdaș located in the central-eastern part of Hunedoara County in Romania.
Zsófia Torma, the first female archaeologist from Transylvania, discovered here in the 19th century the material remains of the "Turdaș" culture, later known as the Vinča culture, from a suburb of the city of Belgrade. But, in Turdaș, the first female archaeologist from Transylvania, Zsófia Torma - anthropologist and paleontologist, brought to light the first artifacts of this Neolithic culture and presented them in scientific sessions at the European level. He discovered Neolithic dwellings in Turdaș and found several ceramic materials, tools, cult pieces and ornaments. Torma carried out most of his activity in Orăștie, where he also created a museum of archeology and ethnography. He also discovered signs of writing, which culminated in the discovery of the famous Tablets from Tartary in Transylvania - Romania, with pictographic writing, the first writing in the world over 7500 years ago. More than 700 identical signs were discovered all over the territory, so says the German paleolinguist Harald H aartmann it is a writing. Harald Haarmann: "The world's earliest known form of writing is the one from Tărtăria - Romania. The Danubian civilization is the first great civilization in history, thousands of years older even the Sumerian one."
Who came up with this idea? It’s absolutely genius

0@@innosanto false...first of all we don't even know if they existed the second if they really existed as the hellenes wrote then they were the original inhabitants of the balkans...in a nutshell we are talking about mythology and not about historical facts even the author of the video spoke more about mythology
@@innosanto btw in the balkans there never was a country an ethnicity a nation ect called greece or greeks before the 19 century the author of the video mentioned Aristotle forgetting that the term graikhos is a term of illyrian origin used by the illyrians for a small doric tribe that lived next to them... ("Meteorologica" I.xiv)
@lagjescuni5482 You Albanians play with words for support of your modern nationalistic agenda. In ancient times the hellenic city-states speak various forms of ancient Greek language and absolutely not illyrian language. Ofc albanians spitting lies in youtube's comment section in various videos will not change reality.
@@popeye1897 but you drank something strong or what .why you talk in this strange way?? who ever said that Hellenes spoke in Albanian.(illyrian)...???
My Ancestry DNA report reflects much of what the video points out: my family is from Southern Italy. There is Western Hunter Gatherer DNA and Neolithic DNA likely from Anatolia or northern Syria. But no R1b or other Indo-European DNA.
Which dna service tells you which haplogroups you are? Mine only said I am 100% northwestern European. Mainly English Irish Scandinavian and broad Western European

Il sud italia non è una macroregione. ogni regione ha subito dominazioni diverse. idem per il nord.
@@all4one5The haplogrous says nothing.
The word Europe Ευρώπη, means the woman with wide vision or the woman that can see everything. Euris, ευρύς in Greek means wide, and -ωπή from the verb οπέω opèo or opò meaning to see and it refers to the eye socket.
