The true history of Egypt told on the spot ❤️ NO alternative theories finally. Thanks
Hi Irena 🖐🏼
"So there was this intergalactic ruler named Zenu..."
So this wasn’t bulit by ancient advanced machines from an even earlier civilization that somehow conveniently have not lasted or ever been found but totally existed guys, for real trust me. 😂😂
That's the same reason YOUR channel is so wonderful Irena - WHISPER OF ANCIENT SITES.
Shout out to the editing, very polished production.
You've stomped your foot down with reality's boot on a lot of the channels I follow but you've made a fan in the process. Thanks for your awesome content.
He did that to me too!
@celsus7979 it needed to be done. I was getting to deep in some of those rabbit holes.🤣
Thanks, I am glad you are enjoying the content!
Crazy to think that there are probably people in the nearby villages whose ancestors were painted on the walls of the tombs thousands of years ago. You could catch a fish in the Nile today and walk up the hill to see a painting of your great-great-200-times-great-grandfather catching a fish in the Nile 4000 years ago.
They are likely your ancestors too, if those people on the wall have any ancestors alive today.
Well we all came from somewhere so likely we have some degree of shared ancestry
So interesting to see "off-the-beaten-path" sites. I've visited Egypt 23 times and lived in Luxor for a year but I've never seen these sites. Fascinating! 👍
Wonderful episode. I particularly liked the paintings in the tombs. They are very interesting and seem to depict much more than the royal tombs of ordinary people of the era. These paintings could be used to show people who have a different idea of how it was possible for the people of that era to build such remarkable places. I loved the display of the stone chisels that they used to carve out that incredible burial shaft. Thanks
Just imagine how these places looked like with trees and rivers. It was majestic beyond our imagination.
Best historical videos out there! Keep it up mr miano! You beat fake history channel! Don't stop please!
incredible difference between the finesse of workmanship of the old kingdom and these crude attempts....
I got the opposite impression. The tombs of the Middle Kingdom are larger and have even more impressive artwork.
This guy sounds like one of sheeps of Uncharted Ex
Here in Sweden we often brag about having the world’s oldest legislation (from the 1600s) protecting ancient monuments. This video makes me wonder if the Egyptians beat us to is by millennia.
All those consecutive stages of culture for so many centuries, and even though people apparently (obviously, in this video) remodelled some places over the years, it seems they protected what came before in some systematic way? How else did so much of it survive to us today? Did the river change its course so much that whole settlements were abandoned and never settled again? Or did the culture revere the forebears’ enough to preserve so much by “default”? Or did some rulers enact legislation to protect ancient places? 🤔
I wish to Explore Egypt too!
Thanks Dr Miano & Natalie ❤
Love traveling & learning with you guys.
Safe travels always🗽
You two are absolutely brilliant. With out a doubt the best historian/travellers/explorers/archeologists to cover Egypt. The best documentaries I have seen on Egypt. Intelligence & passion produce genius. Thanks
Delighting & enlightening, as always. All of that painted must’ve been utterly breathtaking.
THANKS AGAIN, Teach!
I'm only a couple seconds into the video, but I had to stop and say thankyou! I always want to learn more about the MIDDLE KINGDOM !
Very well done, lots of new stuff and the camera -work was great. Are you sure that the guy making wine wasn't being levitated by aliens before the younger dryas?😂
I was gonna say duuuuude but you've earned a more proper title...Doooooc...this is better than anything on TV ever. 😊🤟🧿🤘
I loved this video. So much information I've not seen before. Thank you. Your video title isn't wrong. :)
The paintings of the wrestling techniques are fascinating! I took a brief look and found modern martial artists who study and work to recreate those techniques. I have to say, the people entombed there must have REALLY loved the sport!
A feast for the eyes! Great episode. And nice Arabic and acoustic BG music, too. 🙌🏼
Great episode. I would have liked to see the Japanese archeologists that were supposed to have had exclusive access to that one site. I imagine there was some kind of archeologist standoff when you met - perhaps some kind of dance off? That's what I imagine, anyway...
I love how descriptive you are -wonderful presentation! Thank you 🙏🙌
I loved this one. Very interesting. Thank you for sharing all of this with us.❤
This depiction of the” Asiatics” ( Levantine) peoples are an indication of migration by such people into Egypt during the first intermediate period and into the Middle kingdom thus creating stability after the Civil war that split Egypt back into the two lands
The appointment of a member of the Hotep family harkens back to the Old Kingdom Royal family and provides a basis for the beginning of the reunification in the second Intermediate period ( 17th Dynasty ) by Pharaoh Tao. Hs marriage to Ahmose and Ahhotep would form the basis of 5he reunification and the expulsion of the Hyksos, who had forcibly incurred into lower Egypt Circa 1750 BCE bringing the spoked wheel chariot, horses and Tin/ Bronze weapons into Egypt. The depiction of a besiegement may have been recording this incursion. Or was a part of the Civil War.
An amazing episode indeed!!! And I loved the view of the Nile river, that landscape was just breathtaking!!
Thanks David!!
Has the video about the measuring of the small (presumably) ancient Egyptian granite vase been taken down?
Temporarily. It will be back up soon.
Wonderful video. A really good glimpse of current Egypt too, nice! Would love more maps of where you are and timelines of the different periods you explore.
Holy Smokes...this is incredible...beautiful figure drawings of real life activities on rock that lasted this long is remarkable. Dated 2000 years before Christ as we are 2000 years after Christ is a distance. The ancient Egyptian artists were the originators of story telling with pictures. I am thinking their depictions on the walls are their way of keeping record of who does what in the division of labor in society.
Hello, have you ever studied the pyramids of Cuba that were found underwater? Thoughts?
I speak about them near the end of this video: ua-cam.com/video/Loi0tFdtO6U/v-deo.html
Epic episode! And dense information on a spot and a period i hardly knew anything about. ❤
Very interesting! Some amazing art work there.
Using the word "they" in the title made it sound a bit conspiratorial, it's a word those pseudos' like to use, like "main stream archaeology" and such.
Just triggers me a bit when I see common pseudo nonsense words
Cool vid though, I travelled through Egypt in the late 90's. These videos bring back good memories.
Correlations between the ancient practice of the first feast at the tomb and the modern practice of a wake can easily be made. Both to celebrate the person’s life.
Maaaan, what a treasure I found in your channel! Watching every episode with great pleasure.
Glad you enjoy it!
It amazes me that almost 100 million people live along the Nile river in Egypt mind boggling.
The no-marks tombs are covered in marks! 🤯
Very interesting. I've never heard of those sites before. The Egyptians were truly amazing with their masonry.
It would be sweet if somebody animated that wrestling scene on the wall using the exact figures painted. Would be amazing watching it and just knowing that you were seeing what that painter *wanted* you to see but simply didn't have the technology
Superb content.
Lovely adventure, that wall art was spectacular.
Great video. It's good to see you putting out info at the spot of the topic. My opinion this type of video is better than a debunking video. Thank you for your hard work and effort. It is appreciated.
Have to agree, just actually explaining the history we know about these objects and places does much to dispel ignorance
Would be beneficial to see a close-up of the pottery you see on such sites, like the surface of both sides and the section of it, to satisfy the curiosity of some ancient pottery nerds watching.
I am forever grateful that I found this channel! Great work Dr. Miano!
I appreciate your efforts to include a decent amount of landscape footage to give us a real feel for the various environments you are traveling through.
What an incredible landscape! Thanks for this.
I see what looks like a lot of farm lands there. I wonder if the site was also use for farming in ancient times.
Absolutely!
I wish I could live my life just casually riding a donkey down the street
good video specially about (Fraser Tombs & Neron Temple,aka Akoris)
Exactly as advertised, things we have never seen. Loved the hunting scenes, many with the dogs which I assume are to aid in hunting.
"the middle kingdom might not be as old as the old kingdom". You're one dialled in cat David 😉
Please remember that while in Egypt it is illegal to export their pyramids.
Tihna/Akoris is one of my favorite sites in Egypt. The view from the butte over the valley is wonderful. Did you visit the quarry to the north (before going up to the butte), and the massive unfinished column? There are 2 unfinished obelisks as well. The Japanese excavations have turned up a number of very important texts, including a Dyn. 23 stela of Osorkon III that names him was both king and High Priest of Amun at the same time. Unfortunately, other than some summaries, most of their site reports are in Japanese, and thus not very accessible.
The contrast between the Nile valley and the desert is astonishing. It's like stepping from the Mediterranean onto the Moon.
this is great !!!!!
Loving this series so much
Indeed a great episode. Thanks for sharing
Fascinating!
This was so cool!
Your so cool! What an amazing trip you had! So much hard work went into it but god your the best!
Another great video history. A question did they found any mummys when they discover the tombs ?
No, they had been stripped and reused long ago.
@@WorldofAntiquity Ah, but you showed a crocodile mummy! Evidently the robbers long ago didn't want those.
@@TheDanEdwards The crocodiles were not original. They were part of the reuse.
Great episode, and such impressive art! Thanks all, and special thanks to the team that gave you special access to that site!
Amazing sites! Thanks for bringing them to us!
Explore Golgumbaz,Deccan India!
Keep up the great job, Dr Miano! 👏
I wonder where all those white and Asiatic people who built ancient Egypt all disappeared to?
They went back to where they came from... to their caves 😂
Very nice, some stuff i never seen before. Amazing trip!
Beautiful view of the city, thank you so much for the tour !
Oh wow the wrestling wall was cool!
Visited Beni Hasan back in 2012 when I spent a month travelling around Egypt visiting the sites rarely included with any tours. Must say it has changed a bit since then, much more visitor friendly, back then it was I bloke and loads of steps, no photography allowed unfortunately. Visited Akhetaten as well as that is also reasonable close to El Minya where I was staying just in the opposite direction, also had an armed police guide ( bit strange following a guy with a pistol tucked down the back of his jeans) who was great and ensured I made a fantastic video of the tomb of Ay! Greatest month of my life 100%.
@24:52 Confirmed photo of Manny Fernandez winning his 4th title.
Upcoming interview: "Manny Fernandez SHOOTS on Baqet."
At 15:54 is that a giraffe carved into the side of the temple doorway on the right? If so, I have never seen a giraffe in any Egyptian work before. That is fascinating!
Yo! Dude! Yer a Perfesser!!! Say loudly to yer partner: "Wrestlers not Rustlers" 28 times in 3 minutes. 'might help your enunciation. Otherwise, I liked this a lot, but I miss the ancient astronaut debunking. Nice overall.
The amount of rubbish thrown around the place is very sad.. Egyptian canals and streets could look lovely.
Love your explorations of more esoteric locations. Presentation feels "authentic." Nice contemporary travel log . Love your content. Thanks!
Forgot about the debate around a forgotten ancient civilization. This dude "getting roasted" vs "he's just mushing grapes" is the real controversy!
Have you watched hunting Atlantis yet? I'd love to hear your thoughts since debunking a show like this seems to be in your wheel house.
I mean mine are that it's a clearly scripted/staged "discoveries" and wildly flimsy conclusions based on very little evidence and all done with an attitude of finding facts to fit a conclusion ( mostly ) instead of coming to a conclusion based on the facts.
At least they're willing to rule things out and they're not trying the whole Gram Norton pre younger dryas b.s.
Still if you have half a brain calling this show anything other than science fiction should feel insulting .
But still a video from you on it would be nice.
Beni Hasan seems like an incredible spot. Definitely would be on my hotlist of places to visit if I ever got to go.
Ancient architects is still releasing videos about the ancient Egyptians cutting stone with sound. We know they used chisels. They mystery is gone, given way to common bloody sense. Heeeeelp 😊
Excellent!
What happened to your most recent video on the vase by Uncharted X? Did they abuse UA-cam’s copyright system and do a takedown?
I'm sure they did. What a bunch of losers. The misinformation UnchartedX peddles makes my blood boil
No, they did not abuse it, they just used it :D
Taking 30 minutes of the video, with a misleading title about Atlantis, and misrepresenting the owners is the real abuse
@@RedDarkBullnot surprised he is a pos that cant take criticism.
Copyright claim from openminded truth seekers who are "just asking questions"
@@AntonSmyth-od6rc
What if I took your picture and put it on a fake naked body, this is what DrMiano did. abuse
Thanks
Great documentary just can't cope seeing how they treat the animals poor donkeys n calfs
I think this graffiti is in Coptic not Greek, ancient Copts used to use tombs and temples as churches .
I have NEVER seen those wrestling depictions before! I played that section repeatedly. Again, thank you for showing us the Middle Kingdom! As far as publicly available documentaries are concerned, I have really only seen Dr. Joanne Fletcher cover this period in much detail. So thankyou for showing us. Loved finding out where these depictions of Asiatics we're sourced, as I've seen them presented, but without much info about the source (which we know matters a lot in all historical contexts). Also I wonder why the advanced ancient tech people haven't made any wild theories about the prevalent Middle Kingdom depictions of practical activities in explicit detail. 😂😉
Oh ! I forgot to mention the stone chisels! Yus thankyou! Come on people, it's called material science. Not ancient high tech.
The amount of work that went into making these tombs is almost inconceivable.
Oh look, just like the wrestling you can see in Sudan today.
hmm, for me something doesn't add up....simple (primitive) paintings on walls, and sophisticated (cutting tools?) pits...no way same ''technology''!...sorry....
Who said painting technology is the same as cutting technology?
Poorly preserved and conserved Akoris..a real shame😢
😂😂😂 You clearly never used a hammer and chisel. 11:10.
Secrets they dont show you like the tourist restrooms at Giza
You provided so much information, however just looking at the walls there was clearly a tremendous amount of story that could also be told. So nice of you to have your knowledgable daughter accompany you on your exploration! 😉
1. There are not a lot of bronzes unearthed in Egypt. The latest archeology proves that they were built by construction workers, not slaves. Slaves can eat high-quality beef and can be buried near the pyramids. 2. There is no history of bronze wares in Europe, only a very small amount of bronze is fished out of the water or bought from the antique market, so it is impossible to measure carbon 14 (compared with Sanxingdui in China to see what bronze wares can be measured by carbon 14) 3. There is no such thing in Europe Astronomical calendar (there are many observatory sites in China, there are no such sites in Europe, and it takes hundreds or thousands of years of continuous observation, calculation, and accumulation to have a calendar) 4. There is no unified weights and measures in Europe, and China has unified weights and measures for more than 2,000 years. Many instruments related to measurement have been unearthed in China. There is no unified weights and measures in Europe, so where does advanced arithmetic come from? History cannot be recorded until there has been no change for thousands of years. For the above points, can anyone overthrow it? If it cannot be overthrown, then ancient Babylon (someone obtained a cuneiform dictionary and translated clay tablets?), ancient Egypt, and ancient Greece are all false. Ancient Rome was a very small place not a great empire, let alone a civilization. If you look at the technology of the Song Dynasty in China and the Sanxingdui site, you will know the reason. Note that the first steam engine-driven car was also in China, but it is a pity that the Ming Dynasty, the creator of civilization, was stolen by barbarian Manchus and European missionaries, and rewritten the real history. 6. If Babylonian civilization is as great as described in textbooks, why is writing still written on clay tablets? Why not use noble sheepskin? 7. There is no such a grammatical dictionary for cuneiform, which can allow ordinary people to translate these clay tablets into modern characters. If there is no such dictionary, then they can make fakes at will
@@beamazed1162 Are you saying the Ancient Aliens went to China before they visited Egypt and Iraq?
Greeks just taking residence in the empty tombs is hard to imagine only because we could never imagine doing so ourselves.
“We could never imagine doing so ourselves”. You’re speaking only for yourself. I’d have no issue doing it whatsoever.
Whoa that lady is gorgeous
hidden treasures? finally I will get to see the artifacts the aliens left behind like an electric saw, bunch of bulbs, batteries, and anti gravity rafts
You jest at believers in U F.O.s
But what happens if you see one as many have.
And have irrefutable evidence of injuries which modern medicine can do nothing about.
Bedankt
And thank you!
31:39 Seated on the throne, as he should😄
Is this a different camera guy...zooming around...filming you talking while pointing at art...WE want to see the art!
Not just pyramids and pharaohs.
What a great show of 'normal' ancient egypt!
Keep the videos coming!!
Ah, this is great
Have you went to any of the more recent 'Tepe' excavations in southern Turkey? Karahan and Tarla look super complex and impressive, actual settlements. Wouldn't be shocked if 20-30 years from now the Tepe people are considered a proto civilization or a civilization proper. Could you possibly have a expert in the field, who is close to the ongoing discuss the scope and scale of the settlements? Would be most intersted in learning if any form of book keeping / proto language (maybe something along a basic version of the coniform system) has been discovered. Or maybe rope and beads system you find in some modern hunter gathers.
That would be great but until that happens, Miniminuteman did some vids on his channel at Karahan and Göbekli Tepe you probably should check out if you havn't seen them yet.
His perspective might be slightly different since Milo is an archaeologist while Dr Miano is a historian so they can often focus on different sides of the same coin but both aspects are equally interesting. You can note it here in how much Dr Miano focuses on the depictions and stories of the graves which tend to be the things a historians value most while an archaeologist might have spent more time on tools, tool-marks and how the construction was gone. Both are vital to understanding the past.
That is also why Dr Miano's perspective of things like the leopard man of Karahan Tepe would be very interesting indeed. :)
I thought I heard a year or two ago that Gobekli was something like 10% excavated. Might edit this later after I check my spelling. lol
@@twonumber22 Sadly, it is more like 5-6% then 10. The number of circles usually quoted is just based on geophys and could be wrong in either way, and round buildings can easily be confused with a circle there as well.
That is at best 6% after almost 30 years of digging (with a Covid break like the rest of the world) so don't expect them to finish in this century.
Then again, Pompeii have been under excavation for centuries and is still not done with new finds as late as last week so it isn't strange in cases where the land isn't set to be developed.
@@loke6664 ok, that's wild!
I wish they would hurry up. lol gimme a paint brush and I'll help
@@twonumber22 Lol, the reason it takes so long is that they are scared to miss important things. We are a long time from when Schliemann dug out Troy with dynamite in a couple of years but the result is a lot better today.
They are basically combing the place with a microscope and logging everything with GPS.
I think it is worth it too, because while there are a few somewhat similar places like Karahan Tepe it is still rather unique and just the information we got from digging just over 5% have changed most of what we thought we knew about the early pre pottery Neolithic.
Just imagine what still might be buried there... :)
BC and AD
