- The oldest known sentence in the ancient language of Canaanites has been decoded by at team of Israeli archaeologists.
The inscription was discovered on an ivory head-lice comb, unearthed at Tel Lachish, an ancient city in the Biblical Kingdom of Judah.
Experts translated the comb to read: “May this tusk root out the lice of the hair and the beard.”
The landmark discovery provides evidence for the use of the alphabet 3,700 years ago.

@@elainemunro4621 Some artisan crafts a comb and inscribed it. Sells for big money in 1700bc.
Fascinating! As a Hebrew speaker I actually understood most of the sentence before he translated it! Specifically I understood the words "lice", "tusk", "hair", and "beard". There was also a word that sounded like "wither" so maybe that's related to "root out"? Also, most of the letters resemble Hebrew letters and make the same sound as he made when he spoke.
Apparently ancient Canaanite is (at least partly) mutually intelligible with modern Hebrew!!
That's amazing. I had no idea the two languages would still have that much in common
Many characters resemble runes as well.
@@andrewfoster883 ya i thought modern 'hebrew' was just a bunch of guess work done by russians
@@markstuckless5039 Modern Hebrew was re-assembled with quite a lot of ancient elements I think
To those who thought the modern Hebrew is unrelated to ancient Hebrew. I have been studying biblical Hebrew and it is clear that modern Hebrew is almost the same as the 2,100-year-old words in the Dead Sea Scrolls. To me, modern Hebrew sounds like biblical Hebrew spoken with a Yiddish accent.
The earliest known recorded sentence, like the video suggests by 3:35 is “May this tusk root out the lice of the hair and the beard.” Incredible!
Caananite Manscaping.
From their research paper: "The combination of the lack of the letter’s shape among the known letters in inscriptions found in Canaan and its consistent presence in the South Arabian alphabet leads us to conclude, albeit cautiously, that the letter in our inscription is a prototype of the Canaanite ḥet from which descend the South Arabian similar types." The inscriptions are in ARABIC. Call it cannantite phjoenician bla bla bla theyre all just Arabic.
Thank you so much, so many vids, painfully slow and repetitive.
@@rhetoric5173 Are you an Arab stan
@@rhetoric5173 No, it says the South Arabian letter descends from this prototype. (And that the corresponding Ugaritic letter descends from this one too.)
It's so humbling to think how many cultures and languages have woven the collective tapestry of our species' story and to think that ours might be lost to time one day.
Honestly I think the largest languages like English or Spanish have enough power be remembered for tens of millenia at this point. But of course, in billions of years everything disappears…
All species come and go. 99.9% of all species that ever existed are now extinct. We're doomed!
Especially when you consider that most of our writing is recorded either on paper or digitally, neither of which will last nearly as long as writing on stone tablets. Consider that the Dead Sea Scrolls are around 2,000 years old and reasonably well preserved, but that's only because they were stored in the middle of a desert. If they'd been stored in a humid environment they would've been long gone.
Like tears in the rain
@@OptimusWombatMost of our writing is on paper and the internet, but not all of it. Future humans may decipher our language the same way we’ve deciphered some ancient languages. We have carved writing onto stones in monuments.
Imagine the person making that comb, writing that sentence, all that time ago.
Now imagine people from thousands of years from now doing the same to the little things we take for granted we have today.
What a queer thing time is.
yeah, but the thing is, most things are so abundant, that they are everywhere. We have lots of huge landfills with hundreds of thousands of tons of trash, and a lot of the things will not decompose in the next few thousands of years...
While most of the ancient stuff was re-used and recycled, which is why it's often hard to come by anything... It's even rare to find writings on paper/papyrus/parchment that are over 500+ years old, except for few finds, as most of them have been reused since the materials were so valuable...
We are just a fleck on the timeline of humanity at the very beginning our existence.
But keeping sacred music alive is important
Time is gay ur right
For anyone who is interested I can recommend the documentary „The secret history of writing“. It’s a very inspiring documentary since they also explain the history and development of paper, printing and of course the alphabet.

What did it inspire you to do?
Really interesting to see how that early writing was used, like an inscription, or as someone suggested, an advertisement. It's fun as it isn't necessarily religious, or a weapon, but a comb, identified as tusk by the writer.
I’m a spinner and weaver and some early spindle whorls have similar incantations inscribed on them.
@@janemorrow6672 how cool! I would love to see some of those! If you have a place to see those or ever come across something similar, please let me know!!
@@craftycriminalistwithms.z3053 here’s one example. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckquoy_spindle-whorl
Maybe we need to expand the meaning of that Canaanite word to include scraping as well as biting, so that it encompasses toothed combs as well as tusks. Or just say "these teeth" rather than "this tusk."
@@faithlesshound5621 Aren't you leaping to conclusions by linking "teeth" with "tusk" ? Is it not an ivory comb ? I'm guessing that this is Elephant ivory, therefore, quite literally, a small piece of "tusk"."teeth" when used with a comb, I haven't checked this, may be metaphorical. This metaphor is cultural and maybe not shared with Bronze age Canaan.
History's such a beautiful lesson.

This is truly a landmark discovery. But, it still makes me chuckle that this writing is essentially labeling for a lice comb, a humble bit of writing. I think we often expect these types of finds will be noble inscriptions on tombs or official documents.
Interesting segment about one of my favorite archeological finds. 💚
That’s the thing about ancient inscriptions. We think they’ll reveal ancient secrets and dark mysteries, but when we translate them, they’re mostly shipping receipts, court cases, school exercises, and some guy with lice in his beard.
The vast majority of known Sumerian writing is just receipts and seals. Similarly, the Harrappan language is known almost entirely from seals so even if we could translate it, all we would gain from the knowledge is the names of a bunch of merchants. 🤣
@@patreekotime4578 "The first words from the Harappan civilization have been revealed: They are: Bob... Gary... Sharon... Mike. This extra-long inscription is believed to be Phyllis's Animal Feed and Soda Stop. We look forward to discovering what kinds of sodas the ancient Harappans preferred."
Historical. History was my favourite subject in learning.
Thx for the piece
Stunning, absolutely stunning. History always surprises me.
What's stunning is that the jews had it then. What's not is altering headlines to make them sound overly more sensational. The authors of the paper have ditched all phrases like "first alphabet" eventually. As a matter of fact, studies show that Ancient Egyptian had basically only two vowels, a and o, with just a few rules that everyone there knew since childhood. As I recall it, [a] was there after the first consonant most of the time, and only verbs had more than one vowel, [o] before the last consonant in most cases - and there was only maybe a rule or two more. This makes it look like Ancient Egyptian letters correspond to certain vowels & consonants clearer than modern English! They simply didn't have to add vowels to their stacks of letters called alphabets by many only in case of both consonants and vowels there. In no way I undervalue this introduction of many vowels and letters for them which was made by the jews. But, here's another thing. Maybe - just maybe - that was something not that far away from - and maybe even ordered (from "the Northern church of the Moon", which was Ethiopia, and, well, the jews - Galit Dayan) by - *Egyptian* carriers of science? And that's millenias of "not the first" alphabet!
@@GEMSofGOD_com Ohhh, that's great info for me. I suppose modern language is more complex than ancient Egypt. It is the complete opposite of what I had thought.
@@Oblivious_uncertainties Because the strong form of "jews had the first alphabet" implies that Chinese or Japanese letters (I won't recall now) aren't alphabetic and don't even produce developed languages, which obviously ain't the case. And Ancient Egyptian was super close to nature! You know, Shu the air, Tefnut the spit, Ae = come, etc, A Vocalized Dictionary of Ancient Egypt is a great dictionary! Pharaohs have been orators, first and foremost. They together with writers (the highest job there) created cool words that got repeated in rituals such as festivals for the people to know and share for higher understanding of each other and nature. Eventually their language and cosmogony created both Genesis and Exodus (and other books of the Bible later on) that were the ONLY piece of literature 99% knew in the next 2000 years
@@Oblivious_uncertainties Dont listen to this weird anti-semetic nonsense. The Egyptains had a version of an alphabet which they really only used "alphabetically" for names. Meanwhile, in order to actually read Egyptian texts you need to be able to recognize thousands of logographic symbols (like if the word for "car" was just a drawing of a car) as well as a host of "identifier" symbols that arnt spoken but clarify what the word is referring to (presumably to avoid the confusion of homophones). Chinese has a similar combination of logographs and "sound symbols" which are used for names. But the Caananite invention of an alphabet used to write out words phonetically without extra identifier symbols seems to have been a unique and singular invention which spread around the world. Although there is much contention and dispute as to whether early Indian alphabetic scripts were inspired by Phoneician or was a seperate invention. But the amount of trade happening through the region makes it unlikely IMO that it was a wholly seperate invention.
I'm just shocked that if this woman didn't feel like doing a bit of extra work to take another photo of the comb, that this would be entirely unknown. What else are we missing from finds because one lady somewhere didn't take an extra photo?
It is a fact that museum collections are some of the largest untapped resources for discovery. There often just isnt enough money or interest to sift through them. And this was a piece that was being described. A great amount of materials is collected and never described. This makes it all the more terrible when I think about the looting of museums like what happened in Iraq.
These discoveries are fantastic. There must be so many objects yet to be found which will shine a light on ancient history.
And so many waiting for further inspection. Like this comb, objects often get a quick once over and then back in a box/drawer. Discoveries made years later :)
These are little nuggets that shine golden light on our past. Thanks bbc.
Great find from a woman who does ancient puzzles, so cool.
My wife is doing her masters in Ancient Orient now. With archaeology being an old discipline, there's unfortunately quite a lot of gender prejudices in some fields. Say, for some reason, Roman glass was considered somewhat of 'unmanly', and so only women make publications on this subject. So, for some reason, it's both inspiring and sad to see the woman doing research on combs, and men to read Canaanite.
@Nikolay Ivankov it is still her discovery. And it was surprisingly readable.
1:21 Funny how she treats these 3000 year old shards like mahjong tiles. (Hoping these are replicas)
A utilitarian object with proto-advertising was my first thought. Really amazing find and yanks your mind back in time.

Simply wonderful. I especially appreciated the comb being called a "tusk", since as an instrumentmaker, I work with tusks (mammoth, not elephant) all the time
Thanks for the great work. Cheers from sunny Vienna, Scott
Thank you for finding this and being so curious
I'm glad that the clarification of 1st *alphabetic* writing system was applied.
as for it being Canaanite?
if by "Canaanite", one means a person who lived in the area of
the eastern shore of the Med, then I can accept that.
if this comb is from 3,000 BP, the name Canaan,
was applied almost a millennium and a half later, in the old testament.
I fear that most of the archeology being done in the State of Israel is being tinged by modern politics though.
Right, and what about cuneiform or maybe even protocuneiform? I think this is bs... sadly
That risk Is in all the middle East not only in israel
@@rcethervaac539 *alphabetic*, not pictographic.

Archeology in Iraq is in shambles, and in Iran might as well be forbidden if it doesn't serve the Islamic Republic. There is some
very good work being done in Pakistan, but it is severely underfunded and neglected by the needs of that country to shore up its status as regional power. Turkey? Again there is still some valuable work being done on the very oldest sites, while the newer ones are being inundated by hydro-electric projects meant to spite the Kurds.
So that leaves the reporting from Israel.
It's a sad state of affairs.

I agree. This woman is a bloody Legend. What an Amazing and well deserved discovery.
Very touching discovery. And the lice must be so proud.
Keep in mind this is only the oldest known Alphabetical writing, the Sumerian scripts go back to at least 3400bc. Thats over five thousand years.
And those are sentences too.
How about that? Really important. There was a special n PBS that talked about this evolution from the Egyptian glyph types into an alphabet. The assumptions by the PBS narrators was that the Canaanites found the Egyptian to be clumsy and used their own language to foreshorten the Egyptian. Pretty clever, if you think about it. Easily one of the more important tools made by people.
I believe that although every known alphabet traces its roots back to the Egyptian hieroglyphs, the point made in that documentary was that early modern alphabets emerged during a long series of attempted simplifications of the Egyptian ideograms. Gradually, signs came to represent syllables or individual sounds (consonants and later vowels). It's still way to early, if at all possible, to say which was first. But that it must have been created in modern Middle East seems likely.
You both should see Doug petrovich work. He has shown how it was ephraim and Mannasseh who invented the script
@@1Bohemica There was actually an interplay between attempts to use random Egyptain hieroglyphs as "letters" and Ugaritic, which was a Cunieform abjad and possibly the oldest true "alphabet". Ugaritic preserves the original letter order as well. However Cunieform is really only good for writing in clay or carving in stone. But the need for a flexible, simple script that could be scrawled onto any surface gave rise to the Caananite script. Some Ugaritic letters bare resemblance to Caananite, but mostly the inventers of Caananite took the sounds and the letter order (and potentially the names of the letters, but I think that is debatable).
And it was about your car's extended service warranty. 🤦♀
Oldest "known" sentence, they'll find an older one somewhere eventually. This is the beauty of exploration, the more u search the more u will discover.
Oldest known sentence written in an alphabet. Gilgamesh, written in cuneiform, is nearly 5000 years old and it's entire stories. There is Chinese writing that is also 5000 years old.

For Jews its especially exciting to find this discovery, as the Jewish nation's language - Hebrew - is the last surviving Canaanite language. Israelite ancestry was in its roots, Canaanite.
If man really evolved as slowly as scientists believe, the first evidence of a written language should date back 10-20,000 years ago or longer. Not 3,700................Discuss:
Its weird that "Zakat" is beard. In Hebrew its "Zakan" and its used in context as "old" as well , but its hard to play with the verb when the "n" is replaced.
"beard" is a noun, not a verb, and the -t suffix probably means the writer thought it to be of feminine gender or sth...
@@adrianblake8876 Yes , beards are very feminine... NOT. Probably its best if you have experience in Hebrew before we engage in further...sth....

It’s amazing how so many different scripts such as Latin, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, Runic, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Tibetan, Bengali, Mongolian, and so many more can all trace their ancestry back to Proto-Sinaitic, itself derived from Egyptian hieroglyphics. There should be a recurring pilgrimage to the Great Pyramids (tower of babble) to celebrate our shared linguistic origin.
The Aramaic & Brahmi connection hypothesis, is still uncertain due to the lack of direct evidence and unexplained differences between Aramaic & Brahmi.

So who is the rightful people of Israel?
Abraham, the so-called first Patriarch of the Jewish people never had any right to Palestine. The bible (what many like to use as a property deed) and even their own Jewish sources says that "god" told Abraham to leave his own family and country (Genesis 12:1).
-
The Zionists conspired to steal land in Palestine going back to 1897 so much so that they quietly started paying poor Jewish people to move to Palestine in the early 1900's to flood the region with Jewish people (First Zionist Congress, 1897).
-
For over 1,000 years, White Europeans expelled or murdered Jews. No one really wanted Jewish people in their own country so when the Zionists decided to steal land in Palestine in the 1890's, mostly White Americans and White Europeans conspired to help them.
-
Read Numbers, Deuteronomy, and Joshua. Moses and the “Israelites” were nothing but a raging and violent army that killed people and stole land.
-
That 40 years "wandering in the wilderness" nonsense ... yeah, that time was used to murder boys and kidnap girls to build an army (Numbers 31:1-18).
---
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. (Numbers 31:1-18).
