      Don't you mean "Anatolia"?
      There was no Turkey before 1923.
      Also, Turkish nationalism, like denying the Armenian genocide and claiming minorities like Kurds don't exist are something you really, REALLY don't want to associate with.
      It's a pity how tone-deafness concerning modern ideologies seems to be endemic for archæologists, from the inception of the discipline (imperialism) up to today (Eurocentrism, uncritic usage of ideologically loaded terminology).

      Yes, and all this nonsense about how to spell and pronounce it is entirely in the minds of what has largely been an extreme right wing, military junta with a reputation for torture, appalling human rights abuses and murdering the Russian Ambassador at an art gallery.
      Apparently, these delusional people went to the UN and whined, because they believed (in their own tiny minds) that the world associated them with a particularly dim bird traditionally eaten by Christians at Christmas and Thanksgiving!
      Personally, I associated them with fascism and human rights abuses. But, no,. it's the bird that got them upset!

    What fascinates me with the Phrygians is there cap, today known as liberty cap. It's maybe red in colour and has a little front leaning droop on the top, like Papa Smurfs cap. I was looking at various people with a similar headwear and as it's a sign of freedom it was used during the Ottoman invasion of the Balkans. I did notice almost all the Greek/Arvanite freedom fighters that liberated Greece had a red cap of some sort and we see it associated with french liberty, also few South American coat of arms has it. I wonder where and how it originated.

      You talking about the: The pilos (Greek: πῖλος, felt[12]) was a typical conical hat in Ancient Greece among travelers, workmen and sailors, though sometimes a low, broad-rimmed version was also preferred, known as petasos.[13] It could be made of felt or leather. The pilos together with the petasos were the most common types of hats in Archaic and Classical era (8th-4th century B.C.) Greece.[6]
      Greek Pilos is different than the Phrygian hat.

    30:36 I haven't see that place with my own eyes, but I doubt that those lines were due to chariots:
    - the slope of the rock in the direction of the two lines is really bad for chariots to circulate there, both in the sense of being too much inclined to one side (danger of flipping) and also to sloppy for chariots with substantial loads.
    - in limestone, chariots circulating create deep furrows very fast, and really sharp.
    On the other hand, the distance between both furrows seems to be something like 1m+ in the images. That distance could be of chariot wheels. If I remember well, roman chariots had 1,4m wheel distance.

    For me, the best part -- although there were lots of good parts -- was right at the end. The Res gestae divi Augusti was the first ancient Latin I read, many years ago.

    The land of Türkiye is mind blowingly rich with very ancient sophisticated civilizations and landscapes indeed. The division of Europe and Asia has been done arbitrarily in recent centuries. They did not have scientific technology to determine the borders of the continents.Today's scientists found out with their high tech devices and deeper knowledge that there is an ancient continent called Balkanatolia, stretching from all the way from Caucasia, Anatolia, Balkans, some parts of Italy and Austria. Türkiye does lie mostly in Balkanatolia continent, according to the latest researches.

    Hello Doc, do you have a website. I would love for you to put up a bibliography of some of the historical cultures you visit. Phrygians are a group i would like to learn more about. Think about it, a bibliography would be very helpful to me. Thank you.

    Man I love your travel guides! So smart and extremely well done! I also love the humour sprinkled in, your extensive knowledge of history and the food! Plus traveling with beautiful women is a major plus not only for you but for us as well. I thoroughly enjoy the longer videos as well. I can watch for hours at a time. Just wanna say THANK YOU for getting me out of my head for a while and keep up the great work!

    According to what I've read, the Tulip was originally bread by the Ottoman Turks and held as a symbol of the royal household. Only the Sultan could give them as gifts. They were not allowed to leave the empire (unless or until they were gifted by the Sultan). And the shape or symbol of the Tulip, especially in clothing or jewelry, could only be worn by members of the Sultan's family.

    In music, the Phrygian mode is the third mode of the major scale.
    As far as I am aware it is named after the ancient Greek kingdom of Phrygia
    I believe the modes are named after the regions where they were prominent.
    Thank you for another interesting and informative presentation.

      The word "frieze" referring to an ornamental feature on a building ultimately via Italian and French etc comes from the word "Phrygian".

      ​@@localbod I studied Music Theory.
      From what I recall, the modes were named after the areas from their accents/dialect.. not so much as "they were used prominently in that location"
      But more of "they sound like this over there."
      If you're American.. imagine, a Boston scale. A Southern Scale. The Cali Scale.
      Very early on, he mentioned Lydian as well. Which is the 4th mode, after Phrygian.
      *BUT*
      He says it weird.
      I've always/only heard it "Fridge-ian"
      He says "Frigg-ian."
      I wonder of he's making a mistake, or if musicians did at some point. Which, I can see.. all that English Imperialism and whatnot. 😂🤣🤔🤔🤔

      The kingdom next door to Phrygia and the one that eventually took over it was Lydia and "the lydian mode and mixo -lydian mode is also a "mode" of western music.

      @kaloarepo288 iirc... all of the modes have names from that era and area.
      Ionian
      Dorian
      Phrygian
      Lydian
      Mixolydian
      Aeolian
      Locrian
      They were supposedly named for the accents/dialects of the people from those areas.
      I don't know shit about History, unless it's music history.. and even then, I studied more Composition and Theory than I cared about recalling Beethoven and Mozarts lives. 😅
