This may be weird but listening to her helps me go to sleep. I go back the next day and watch the video but history is my favorite and puts me at peace.
Me too! So calming
Same here!

Me too! I thought I was the only weird one. Her voice is so calming! I go back and watch what I missed the next day too.

Professor Joann Fletcher is one of the best presenters I've ever seen. I worked in television for many years so I understand what's needed to present a documentary. Her passion and knowledge is off the charts.
Another great one is Bettany Hughes. Check out her documentaries, they are excellent.
She spread lies , and gives you the racist European version of Ancient Egyptian history
I agree that she is a talented presenter and her passion for ancient Egypt is inpsiring but I find a lot of her documentaries are eurocentric in that they do not acknowledge the atrocities commited by colonial Europeans powers and she seems to take no issue that European colonists stole what could be hundreds of thousands of artifacts and still today keeps them in museums such as the British Musems who in 2021 alone returned 5,300 artifacts to Cairo. Maybe it is because I am from a younger generation but it bothers me that she once cried at a mural in a tomb but omits how most of the artifacts that were ransacked have not yet been returned and it's been centuries leaving the sacred place still desecrated and Egypt owed justice.
I wish she and Mary Beard would do a massive ancient life series, they both seem to care about what life was and how it felt, along with the grand ideas of culture/history, very dynamic historical viewpoints!
Cool idea
I love that there are women like this in academia and popular culture. Makes me happy 🥹
@TV @TV as mother of three birth girls (my eldest son is male now) I have been in deepest fear and want them to be people, and they can figure out their choices, but who is mentoring or presenting a reasonable framework for young girls. And boys too, but like Prof. Beard said in circus maximus, she wouldn't have been able to sit anywhere but with the slaves. That metaphor, if it can be considered one, many millions of women, and of all types, are still seen as the slave. Chattel w benefits. Do I sound as divorced as it feels? Lol
@netflix stop your woke bs and get on this idea.
@laurenjeangreenbean6301 you should really try knock the trans delusions out of your daughters head Lauren. She'll come to regret it in later life.
The lady in all these Egyptian documentaries is an absolute star. Need more content with her please.
Obsessed with Dr. Fletcher. Her knowledge is so expansive, her passion for Egypt is obvious and engaging. I keep rewatching her videos, never get tired of listening to her.
Every single documentary she does is awesome! Her excitement is contagious, and her knowledge of ancient Egypt is incredible. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💕 Very well done!
Hannah young buck do you want Egyptian 🎤 it’s fat and big 💯😁
She reminds me of my grade 11 visual arts teacher, Mrs. Goodman. I would very much have liked Prof. Fletcher as a teacher, as well.
Well she is an Egyptoligst so has dedicated her entire career to the study of its History.
@@TyrantOFynder @CIA my man so desperate he's hitting on a girl on YT. picture is 2/4" large lol
I was about to comment the same thing! Her passion and excitement really make it so much better and bring a smile to my face!
Professor Joann Fletcher is such a phenomenal communicator within and
for her field of study. Thank you Joann---brilliantly presented.
She's a cool 😎 lady, and smart. I bet she would be a cool friend , she reminds me of my friend in 8th grade.
She’s amazing.. I have a new UA-cam hero.. her wisdom and her ability to engage the listener… can you imagine actually being in one of her classes !?
Yes
She's a nut. Highly dramatic false narrative. She spreads the false orthodox view that the modern dynasties built pyramids as tombs. Mummies were not found in the pyramids. They are not designed as tombs. The time line alone does not fit. That's just the most obvious counterpoint. There's a lot of misinformation about Egypt from those who should know better.
@@deadpanfish What were they built as? Can you suggest another person whose information is more accurate?
Professor Fletcher makes me relive the excitement, the sense of wonder and the desire to know more and more about Ancient Egypt, which I felt first in 1972 when I read Otto Neubert's 'The Story of Tutankhamum'. It was the fiftieth anniversary of the discovery of his tomb; next year it will the one hundredth anniversary.
Thank you.
Joann is a fantastic host. You can tell she really loves teaching about ancient Egypt. Doing shows like this probably doesn’t even seem like work to her. Very smart woman
She's soo passionate about egyptology! She even broke down and cried when walking into one tomb! She loves the study of it! And I love her for loving it!
Imagine being able to explore these ancient sites around 100 150 years ago when you could just walk right in on your own without anyone to stop you? It's hard to believe how advanced they really for 4000 years ago. I wonder how a person would become a artist or scribe.
@@ricardboscar1864
How to find them?
@@ricardboscar1864 wouldn’t recommend syria at the moment. Probably in the next five to ten years I hope. I say this as half Syrian who still occasionally travels there
I really enjoy her energy, very fun like Mary Beard. I'd ask this channel to include the original "air date" for these projects so viewers can dive deeper.
Joann, thank you for opening the program with the beautiful Egyptian room at the British Museum, my favorite place in London...I cried when I first walked in there, it is so overwhelming!!
You see what a kind person she is, at about 35 min when he brings her a drink. She smiles and looks grateful. She doesn't just grab it without looking at him
That doesn’t make you kind. It makes you normal. People are so rude and privileged these days.
Prof. Fletcher's enthusiasm for her subject matter is infectious. I don't generally watch stuff about the Egyptians. Prof Fletcher makes her documentaries so interesting that not only do I enjoy watching them, I will go out of my way to search for her videos.
Love her.. Looks like she is about to board the train at platform 9 3/4
Right?! And I wanna go with her!
She’d have to be a Weasley 😊
Hagrid before her sex change.
OMFG 😂😂😂
Mrs. Weasley is that you? 😂 can you tell me what spell did you use to make Bellatrix explode 🤔
pretty sure ive watched every single one of her videos. and currently rewatching just cause she's amazing. cheers joann

We need Joann and Mary Beard to have a show together!!! It will make my life complete!
Documentaries about Ancient Egypt / Space are the only ones i watch, i just can't get enough of them.
I love the way she tells the story. Feels like she is really talking to you face to face 👍
I'm just flabbergasted everytime I see these ancient sites! No modern machinery they had, and they created these? Incredible!
Created by the loss of thousands of lives...disgusting!
And especially slaves.@@vivians9392
dude I am in love with Joann, oh my goodness 😅
Your voice, your passion, your knowledge of the subject all make you an excellent narrator.
Great job!
Wow! I was so engrossed in this documentary that I lost all sense of time, outside noises and everything else. Joann Fletcher is a master storyteller as well as an amazing Egyptologist. When she entered the burial tomb of the the warriors who helped to reclaim Egypt from her enemies and showed the vast numbers of the dead the enormity and horror of that particular battle(s) and warfare in general really hit me hard. Thank you Odyssey for producing fabulous videos about ancient history. Your incredible historians and archaeologists make the past come alive with their knowledge and passion for their subjects. I’ve always loved history and am so grateful to see and learn new things about the past.
Kinda of love her obvious love of the subject matter. Long live the worlds glorious nerds who bring that infectious passion.
Seeing the joy from Joann in going into that tomb was wonderful. Such a career defining moment! What a queeeen!
I learn SO much from watching your presentations! Each one is better than the last. Love the way you communicate & your topics of discussion. Thanks so much, Dr. Fletcher! Well done!
I love Joann's documentaries and her passion for Egypt and history!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Another amazing video, those tomb models were so incredible! Also, doesn’t Joann make the best documentaries? Such enthusiasm and respect for the subject matter.
I love Dr. Jo!
would love her to do podcasts talking about ancient Egypt.
It's really good to hear this really learned lady talk about Egypt without all the alien rubbish great video cheers from oZ .
Fantastic documentary, very beautiful and well narrated. Thank you.
I have watched MANY, MANY documenteries of Egypt, and THIS is one of THE BEST Ones I have EVER SEEN....I'm going to continue watching ALL the other Videos you made Joann !! I'm Subscribed !!!!
Fear and suspicion?
Sounds like England’s Tudor Kings repeated the same mistakes of the past Kings of Egypt.
Loving her work, her love for Egyptian History is contagious in the way she tells it. ❤️
I want more of this kind of of from Joann
I agree...me too.
Yes! She's so passionate about her work. It's refreshing.
I agree with Jessi- listening to Prof Fletcher also gradually sends me to sleep - l love ❤️ her lectures and like Jessi I hear them all
over again the next morning at breakfast 😍😍
Amazing to see a tomb in the side of a cliff out in the middle of nowhere be dug out and viewed so openly for the first time on camera … and the way she goes about everything is so respectful with how she tries to not step on any linen, bones, and tissue (meaning she’s not going in further than where the bare dirt floor ends and the remains begin as to not disturb anything despite it being very tempting to traverse further through the corridors to see if there is anything else towards the back). Such a great find.
Makes you wonder how many more hidden areas are like that carved out by ancient Egypt in areas long overgrown and buried from time that are yet to be uncovered … or any other ancient civilization at that (just like how we’re still uncovering such amazing finds near Mt Vesuvius).
Archaeologists have such a cool job. I know a lot of people may shame them and find their line of work to be disrespectful given what they do, but it’s one of those “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” type of things in a way.
Most complaining would never rant about their work if there weren’t archaeologists uncovering these things that they can complain about in the first place. They’d never know anything about their lives, rituals, economies, etc. and would be in the dark about it all - essentially never knowing anything that leads them to complain in the first place (example: archaeologists uncovering a tomb to learn about rituals and study them to better understand what happened, people complain saying it’s disrespectful because they disturbed the tomb as it goes against the ancient civilization’s beliefs that they learned about, but they would never be able to even learn about such information to act as if they have more respect for their culture than the archaeologists if it weren’t for them uncovering these things and documenting them for people to learn about in the first place).
I’d much rather have their stories and history continue on for many more centuries as opposed to being lost to time to be forgotten amongst decay. Learning about the past’s history is how we will attempt to do better for our future’s history. Uncovering these ancient civilizations, their rituals, beliefs, way of life, etc., being able to record them, put them on display, and protecting them at all costs for preservation is crucial for us to better understand our ancestors’ stories so we can contribute to helping our future generations and their history.
Anyways … this documentary was so great to watch. Thank you all for putting this up for free for everyone to view!
I say, jolly good presentation! And bravo, such dedication from the fair maiden weathering the tomb stone desert of antiquities!
Really hope to see something new from her soon! ❤️
Go watch UnchartedX and youll realise how many lies shes spreading. So they built these pyramids, then forgot how, then their people starve. Sound like the ultimate power of Egypt was rather brittle. Pay attention to how long it took to lay only the foundation for the great pyramid. They would have had to lay a block every 5 seconds, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day to fit the timeline thats proposed. That doesnt include the mining, shaping and shipment of the stone, and does not even include the actual structure of the pyramid. Use your own critical thinking.
@@deadpanfish why she need to lie? does she going to get something??
@@deadpanfish sources?
I watched one of these Egyptian documentaries that didn't have her in it and it was unwatchable and also the presentable looked like the dragon from Mulan it was so hard to watch, glad this one has Joann in it
I adore this beautiful Lady!!! Her passion is genuine and absolutely contagious!! I'd love to share a pint with her and just talk history for hours!!! Thank you Professor Joann Fletcher! Exceptional series!
Youre awesome Joann!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!!
Love the excitement she shows when seeing something for the first time. Thank you again. 💟☮️
I agree with Dr. Fletcher that the ordinary ancient Egyptian lives were far more interesting, and deserve more respect.
All we seem to know about the Pharaohs' lives were either colossal builders or warmongers.
Their tombs are quite boring with the Book of the Dead text written throughout.
“His large ears, to hear any plots being made against him!”
Probably some Dead Pharaoh: *I just had big ass ears…*
This episode had me at Prof. Joann's dramatic throwing of pottery. One of my favorite presenters.
This is seriously my new favourite channel... what fantastically made docos!!!
You are the BEST there is Professor, Thank you so much for such amazing content 😁
You’re welcome come again young buck 🎤
I don’t typically care a whole lot about history but Dr. Fletcher makes it SO interesting
Congratulations! One of the best documentaries about Egypt.
The first book I bought as a child was about Tutankhamen, I should have been an archaeologist but my childhood was stifled.
I have always dreamed of doing what she does i love everything about Egypt i cant get enough of it
Same here .. I love this stuff two .. check this video out if you want more on this topic.. it's really is about the ancient empire that we basically know nothing about .. ua-cam.com/video/2fS9ixfQ_no/v-deo.html
The Hyksoss never developed the composite bow. The bow & arrow are a pure Egyptian invention, and so is the composite bow.
I can listen to Joann forever. She has the most pleasant voice and her knowledge is beyond amazing.
This lady is such a wealth of knowledge..I could listen 24/7
Such an incredible documentary. Thank you, professor.
She is the best egyptologist I've watched
The hell you say! Shes disinfiornation mason!
She’s great with Ancient Rome too.
imagine being dumped in some dank tomb along with dozens of others, and having your final resting place look more like a landfill than a grave. the people don't care anymore of course, but there is something extremely sad about that idea of just being dumped somewhere after you trade life for eternity. this is what's coming for all of us, just becoming some collection of bones someplace. why is human life so unbearably tragic and hopeless?
In 500 million to 1 billion years from now... NONE OF THIS WILL MATTER WHATSOEVER. Why? Cuz the increased luminosity of the sun will bring an end to most, if not all life on earth. Earth will then be swallowed up by the sun as it becomes a red giant, and that will be the definitive end for planet earth. So heres my recommendation: DEAL WITH IT.
I often go to sleep to her voice. She’s quite learned and presents that knowledge in a way that’s understandable and enjoyable
What an amazing archeologist, detective and story teller…
Ohh Joann. Thank you for teaching me history while I'm napping
Good evening everyone
Absolutely love her!!! But I find it hard to finish a show cause of her naturally amazing ASMR voice. Lol 😂🥰😴
She’s wonderful! Keeps me interested for sure♥️‼️🥰 she’s sooo cool!!!
correction: the Nile was Egypt's main body of water, not it's only source of water. they also had the Faiyum swamps and Siwa Oasis
That’s interesting. Watched thousands of videos on the subject and never heard of either.
@@chaolan77 the Faiyum is the large swampland located somewhere near the center of lower (northern) Egypt, while Siwa is in the southwest of lower Egypt. if I recall correctly the city the Greeks called "Krokodilopolis" was located in the Faiyum and was where Sobek's followers were the most numerous. as for Siwa, thats where the oracle who named Alexander as the "son of Amun" was from. being named the son of any of their deities allowed him to receive the throne without force, especially after he already liberated Egypt from Persia. this in turn led to the start of the Ptolemaic line, which ended with Caesarion, Cleopatra's son, who was the only Roman pharaoh and was far too young to rule when Cleopatra died. Julius, his father, was already dead, and so was Mark Antony. once Octavian won, the Egyptian Empire was no more.
@@lordreptilestormblade1749 wow. You sound like an expert on ancient Egypt. Impressive description. I wonder if the ancient Greeks called it that way because it had a large number of 🐊 crocodiles. Certainly sounds like crocodile and similar to Spanish and Portuguese and Italian, cocodrilo.
@@chaolan77 you are correct about it meaning Crocodile. however, I cannot take too much credit for what I know. most of what I know I learned from watching history documentaries, or from games that have done their research, like AC Origins. I am not an Egyptologist though I am a huge fan of Ancient Egypt, which is in my honest opinion the best former monarchy of all time, and a far better empire than Rome considering Egypt actually did accomplish plenty while most of Rome's "inventions" were actually invented by cultures they conquered.
@@lordreptilestormblade1749 I am much the same. For years I’ve been watching Egypt videos while not watching tv. But what impressed me is your total recall of all the sites and names and their difficult spelling.
I also listen to her to fall asleep. She has a calming voice. I also listen to Alice Roberts, she also does history documentaries.
Absolutely love this woman , so interesting and captivating ❤️❤️
Does anyone know what the music for the last 30 seconds is ?
Thank you, Joann!
Love this video!
Entertaining as well as educational. I felt though that she was unfair to that regional official who took over power locally during Egypt's time of troubles. His pretensions were really no more absurd than those of the kings and he seems to have done his best for his people.
This is so cool 😻
Love this woman her passion makes me want to learn as much as I can
Same here
I enjoy her so much! She's awesome and her voice makes me enjoy sucking in all the info she shares. I do have a wonder about her...why does she wear black (absorbs the sun & heat rather than reflects it as white does in that sun & climate?) Is it, or could it be, out of respect or something else, if anyone knows?
Great information on a little-known period - she even incorporates some of the later findings in isotope analysis that suggests the Hyksos may not have been the invading force as previously depicted but rather the rise of a population of the descendants of foreigners who had lived in Egypt for at least a century and slowly rose through the ranks of government to obtain the power necessary to overthrow the ruling dynasty not so much as an invading force but as an internal coup. But she wisely is discreet about the promotion of this new idea, using nuanced phrasing through which she acknowledges her awareness of the research while at the same time, knowing that such a position is far from being established and even farther from being accepted, she is unwilling to categorically disregard the accepted story in favor of one that has limited support in the evidence published to date.
Best comment ever. Agreed.
😂😂😂
Every time I listen to her before bed I have the best dreams very vivid I can remember them too and sleeps ❤
The Old Kingdom famine period was harsh & severe.
35:23 That tomb was so cool with all the linen wrappings and remains 😮
We don’t hear much about the regular people of those times, and she’s right, they’re the ones we should be looking at and learning about
Love those series about Egypt
Joann Fletcher is my absolute favorite. She is so educated, yet down to earth. I love that wild red hair!
Joann Fletcher... you're amazing thank you
My history and proud ❤
Her voice is so dramatically enthusiastic
Wonderful doc
I wonder how many more tombs there are that are still hidden, that sand must have so much buried history waiting to be found.
Fantástico,contado al estilo de la doctora, impresionante!!
Nice
Being a deer hunter I've seen primitive all wood bows & arrows propel arrows all the way thru a deer and out the other side.
A human would have stood a lot less chance.
And these early people's dipped their arrows in manure and other spoiled mixtures as to cause slow painful infected wound & death.
Far more effective than for example a musket.
This ia fantastic . great information well written and filmed amazingly. Thank you very much.
Oh my gosh, it's Dr. Naunton at about 46:20! He has his own UA-cam channel and produces in-depth lectures.
Dr fletcher is so good. I watch everything I can find by her.
Fantastic
Awesome
I wish her to be my history teacher.
Does anyone have a specific order to watch her videos? I love them so much and wanna go to the beginning and end of her documentaries
nice
Lovely 🌹
I love watching her! She's my favorite ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑
This lady is the best!
We can all relate to this age of fear, need to start making clay pots here in US!
