Honey might not seem worth it to our modern sugar-rich diet, but imagine what it was like for ancient people who lived on plain fruit, grains and meat - golden honey would've been a miraculous taste sensation.
And some Chinese came to India to learn how to produce it... They went back home and... They mass-produced it and exported it so much that now sugar is called "चीनी"(cheenee) in Hindi which means Chinese.
It's funny that in English, you have turkey which is the same name as a country, Turkey. While in Portuguese, a turkey is called a "peru" which is the same name as a country, Peru.
Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Me: *adjusts spectacles* _Actually it was the red junglefowl originating from the tropical regions of India and South Eastern Asia_
Actually it was other lines of other fowl throughout the years, which evolved from other avian-like birds or dineosaurs which split form reptiles millions of years ago. So the egg was always first.
CO2/Carbon plus H2O/Water captures the EM energy of the Sun/Son-Galaxy/father and creates life. Earth is a closed loop that self regulates CO2 with life by combing CO2with H2O to capture the EM of the double toroidal fields we call the Sun and or galactic nucleus. Cause and effect. Temperature rises first and CO2 follows as the Arctic thaws due to crossing the galactic plane and increased DIRECT sunlight at the higher latitudes poles. The Arctic is nothing but frozen CO2. Precession causes our climate cycles of Continental glaciers with lower sea levels brought on by East to West Global Tsunami's when we cross the galaxies Electromagnetic/Gravitational plane/Equator for the next Millenia. The Galactic Milankovitch cycles cause our climate cycles. Eccentricity galactic bulge rotates every 240,000 years. Obliquity/Magnetic north changes according to the galactic bulge with Aphelion occurring once every 120,000 years or 24.5 degrees magnetic north inclination putting us in the tropical age. When magnetic north will be at 21.5 degrees inclination we will be in the ice age.

Domestication is a very specific term. It implies we’ve been genetically modifying them through eugenics and social engineering for a number of generations.
The domestication of horses is very important to civil history. If you know anything about linguistics, then the Yamnaya people expanded from the Pontic steppe on these horses that they began domesticating. After a Yamnaya-descended group of Anatolians became the Hittites, the near Eastern empires around them adopted their horse and chariot practices. Today, many languages we speak today, including English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Greek, Russian, Persian, Hindi, Punjabi, Bengali and Marathi all derive from the Yamnaya language spoken 6000 years ago.

A lot of beekeepers nowadays only use the head piece so it's not that crazy that honey was collected that long ago. Also, smoke is something bees avoid so they probably used that and some cloth covering most of the face. We often give our ancients too little credit; they were very resourceful.
He doesn’t actually say that they were around at the same time, just points out that meat was important for early human survival by comparing them to a failed similar creature
I think the language he used was alittl unclear and can definitely be misunderstood. Should probably have made more distinction between humans and modern humans, especially on a UA-cam channel where people might not be familiar with hearing 'humans' in this distinction.
I am, there is a huge missed opportunity because there is a breed of cow that was bred to reconstruck the aurochs callen the "heck cattle" and they look like aurochs.
Interestingly, while Brazil has all of this cattle as use for the meat industry, the indian cows for the most part are not for production, but rather seen as an almost equal living being

@Mø Nälayé Eh.....what? You do realize warthogs are a completely different species from Eurasian boars, right? That would like showing a bison and calling it an aurochs-oh wait, he did that too in this video.
He also showed a bison while talking about the aurochs. Obviously, the only thing he checked with the footage he used was what type of animal it featured not which species. I'm surprised he didn't confuse an African wild dog for a wolf XD
10:50 that is not what we call North-India but rather Northeast India (a bit of East India which is Bengal) which is distinct from North India culturally, demographically, historically and most importantly in this context ecologically.
I'd like to see a video about the geography of vegetables as well as flowers, because it occurred to me that I don't really know much about where certain flowers originated from.
Me too, because Europeans are the only ones who did “anything bad”. Almost every country/culture has a history of barbarism, and some of them still engage in it. I wonder why only Europe got an honorable mention...
I found this to be an incredibly interesting video which describes something which without, humans would not be what we are today. Thank you so much! ❤❤❤
You forgot another kind of bee, the melipona bees, also known as stingless bees, which have an extension from Argentina to Mexico. Their hives are very small and don't produce honey en masse like the European honeybee, but besides being used for sweetening foods and drinks, their honey was more valued for their medical applications.
Krok Krok yea but if I made fun of America like that, I’d basically be reporting actual news. At least with Canada it’s an obvious joke lol. It wouldn’t surprise me if a bear got raging drunk off of bud light in America
Someone In The Crowd Well yes. They are because Canada’s in the continent of North America. I don’t like when people say “American” to mean US American. America is its own 2 continents, being North and South America. There’s also Central America, which is actually just part of North America.
Austrolopithecus first emerged in East Africa close to three million years ago. It isn't known exactly why they declined, but climate change and evolutionary transition likely had a lot to do with it. It's important to note that H. erectus was the first hominin to master fire for cooking just under two million years ago.
Well, the not the turkish, but the people who used to live there long before the turks. Let's remember the actual turks reached and established themselves in Anatolia just like the Europeans did in the Americas, before the turks, what is now turkey was as greek as Greece gets. And before them, other ancient civilizations like the Hittites.
Alperen Başer there was never been an “Anatolian nation” since the Hittites in the Bronze Age, an empire that existed for 3 centuries, after its fall Western Anatolia has always been populated by Greeks, ruled by different empires like Lydia, Persia, the Seleucid and the Romans for approximately 2000 (two thousand!) years until the Mongols forced the Turks to immigrate into Western Asia and later they started conquering land from the Byzantine Romans under Seljuk Empire’s leadership.
Just a minor detail, I’d like to point out... just to clear up any misconceptions: there were no Turkic people in Anatolia during the times these animals were domesticated.
From a ranching POV I'd like to simplify the notion that livestock is necessarily domesticated, and the notion that early humans must have captured baby animals to raise for meat. Livestock is simply live stock - animals, including wild animals, left alive for convenience to be slaughtered later. You can drive live stock under its own power to your camp or village. There you may cow it and corral or hobble it. Live stock doesn't rot, nor attract scavenger packs. It is called live stock because it is self-preserving meat. Stock many and kill at leisure as needed, not foolishly out in the field.
6:55 "I guess the turkish just really loved domesticating animals" In all of the examples prior to the domestic turkey, the turkish people at those times lived nowhere near the area where those animals were domesticated, but rather in the Eurasian steppes.
@@wakakabravo7998 Mostly anatolian native people. Big amount of Greek, Turkic, Arabic, Persian, mix and also uncountable amount of others (kurdish, armenian, celtic, circassian, laz, latin, gypsy...)

I enjoyed watching this very informative video and appreciate the time and research it took to put it all together. Most of us think of these animals in very superficial ways and think that they have always been available to us for food , clothing and to supply our Grocery Stores, how spoiled we are.
Llamas, alpacas but you also missed vicuñas and guanacos, they strecht far south, the last ones even enccounter with penguins once a year in Punta Tombo.
4:54 "this look completely notable different most cows we used to" Me, a brazilian: "How? is the same thing, the hump is one of the best/normal cuts!" 5:21 "ahhh makes sense, we dont use 'european' cows then..."
Fascinating topic, I'd love to see a video on key agricultural crops civilizations utilized as primary food source. Einkorn wheat, Emmer Wheat, barley, millet, rice, and potatoes come to mind as immediate topics of interest that fundamentally fueled key civilizations around the world, but frankly there's a huge variety to be had and these are just the immediate one. Yucca, yams, and onions (the latter of which were considered military food by the Greeks), are also interesting to consider. This is really not even getting into what we've done, like with plants from the Brassica-you have brussel sprouts, cauliflower, kale, collared greens, etc.
In Italy mozzarella can be made out of cow milk or buffalo milk (and apparently sheep and goat). If it's made out of buffalo milk it will be clearly stated and you will find it as "mozzarella di bufala campana" or similar denominations. On the other hand if it's just "mozzarella" without specification, it's made out of cow milk.
Goat and Sheep were domesticated on Zagros mountains on Western Iran not Turkey. Honey bees are also thought to be domesticated in the same area that agriculture was invented (Asian side of the middle east). The wall paintings in Egypt is much younger than the actual time they were domesticated and it is just the way Egyptians used to record things but wasnt very popular in the rest of the Middle East.

Imagine Future historians thousands of years from now finding a bunch of chickens bones in the trash and displaying them as priceless evidence of ancient civilization. Amazing how much time can increase the value of something
[finds remnants of an ancient KFC] future archaelogist: we believe this structure was a site of ritual chicken sacrifice used in the early 21st century. We believe KFC stands for Kock Fighting Club.
How about a video on how background radiation has affected genetic diversity. We know that the background radiation was much higher millions of years ago, but how high was it during different eras(?), and how much affect would it have had?
Yep, this is true for many of those "earliest X" claims. Cayönü is a site where we have actually found evidence of early domestication. It's entirely possible (and even probable) that at other sites in the region (or elsewhere) humans did similar things. Maybe we haven't found them, yet, and maybe they have disappeared forever so Cayönü will stay the site with the oldest evidence - but that is not necessarily due to them being the first, it's due to the random chance of that site surviving to be excavated and studied.
It was probably an entire region and not just one town. There is another site in eastern Turkey called Göbekli Tepe that hosts the worlds oldest known building site, and is thought to be where the ancestral wheat (Einkorn) was first "domesticated". Many archeologists now believe it was in that area, and not in Sumeria/Babylonia that civilization first appeared. It seems without them, we would not have any real meat or bread to eat. Let's just say we'd still be sleeping caves. The more you know indeed ;)
In most of these contexts you should refer to turkey as Anatolia, at the time it was not called turkey, and not inhabited by Turks. Rather, it was inhabited by Armenians and Greeks.
Destan Sen Yes but it’s referred to as Anatolia. I don’t see your point. I didn’t say refer to it as Greece or Armenia. I said Anatolia, which is its name. Turkey is not it’s name.
Thank you, I have been reading this book: Domesticated Evolution in a man made world by Richard C Francis and the book really expand my knowledge on evolution. Your video touched on everything he wrote in his book. Nice to see people expanding knowledge.
I heard a slightly different story for how the bird turkey got its name. I heard that the Turks sold Guinea Fowls in Europe, and Europeans sometimes called them Turkey birds because they were birds from Turkey, then when they saw what we now call Turkeys they were like "hey that looks like a Turkey bird" and called it a turkey
10:41 - I shook my head in disagreement because a variety of a silkworm is actually fried and eaten by a few tribes in Assam (North-Eastern India). It tastes like the French version of scrambled eggs.
Some Chinese eat silkworms too, after they took the cocoons for silk, the pupa inside it was fried and eaten. It's perhaps a side product of silk-making.
Also horse originated in North America. Around time when land bridge allowed human migration into Americas horses migrated out of it. Following change of climate (and maybe human help) horses went extinct in North America, until the time when Spanish brought them again. Some horses escaped and gave beginning of wild mustangs.
Cattle were actually domesticated in two places independently:- 1. In the Sahara in north-east Africa. 2. In the Indus Valley in Pakistan. Problem with the politics of domestication is massive European dominance in research and production of knowledge in the modern world. As a result, African domesticate are often credited to the Middle East. Where it is difficult to do so, they then give it to the Egyptians to mean the Nile Valley and Sahara peoples
So what you're saying is that the aurochs was never domesticated, because their natural range did not extend into Africa, Funny then how the closest living relative, genetically, to the Eurasian Auroch is a breed of cattle from Switzerland.
@@fintan9705 ha ha ha Aurochs were in Africa, the Sahara and East Africa in ancient times including Barbary Bears and wolves. The only actual archeological sites with evidence of domestication of Aurochs into cattle are in Africa (e.g. Nabta Playa) and in Pakistan (Indus Valley domestication of Bos Indicus/Sanga cattle). There are no archeological sites in Europe. However, presently the economically, politically and scientifically dominant people in the world are Europeans. We have seen how the archeogenetic centres in Germany have interpreted and attributed every ancient genetic study to Europe's favour namely:- 1. The ancient population of Egypt 2. The pig / wild boar as 'domesticated in Europe/Anatolia 3. The dog as domesticated in Europe / claimed to be genetically related to European wolves 4. Cattle as European domestica despite the absence of any evidence except the claimed genetic relation of cattle of European Aurochs (previously Europeans claimed cattle were domesticated in the Near East)
@Shivam Joshi I do not believe there was any domestication in Anatolia. There is something called 'The Great Anatolia Theft' - basically Europeans using their monopoly on archeo-genetics to attribute ancient civilisations and human achievements of Africa and West Asia to 'Anatolian Farmers' i.e. alleged ancestors of modern Europeans. See Iron discovery. The real oldest sites are in Iran and Central Africa. Yet, it is the so-called Anatolian farmers we are told ushered the Iron Age. If you notice, all of the Middle East / Fertile Crescents' discoveries that gained it the label 'cradle of civilization' have all now been bequethed to Anatolia. The pig, wheat, iron even the very concept of farming has suddenly become an ancient European / Anatolia achievement.

A lot of beekeepers nowadays only use the head piece so it's not that crazy that honey was collected that long ago. Also, smoke is something bees avoid so they probably used that and some cloth covering most of the face. We often give our ancients too little credit; they were very resourceful.
Australopithecus and Homo sapiens were not around at the same time! Did you put that in just to wait and see anyone will call you out on it
I've certainly never seen them in the same place at the same time. Separately, sure.
He doesn’t actually say that they were around at the same time, just points out that meat was important for early human survival by comparing them to a failed similar creature
Are ancestors Homo Erectus were the first to start cooking around 2million years ago. I think that's what he means
He said humans, not Homo sapiens specifically. Humans are every ape in the genus Homo.
I think the language he used was alittl unclear and can definitely be misunderstood. Should probably have made more distinction between humans and modern humans, especially on a UA-cam channel where people might not be familiar with hearing 'humans' in this distinction.

Anyone else bothered by the fact that he showed a wisent as an aurochs and a warthog as a wild boar?
Yeah, I was a bit confused when this picture came up, as we still have quite a lot of wild boars over here in Germany.
Yes. And he said "Auroch", rather than "Aurochs".
Yeah, quite bothered as I find them regularly around home
I am, there is a huge missed opportunity because there is a breed of cow that was bred to reconstruck the aurochs callen the "heck cattle" and they look like aurochs.
he might not have found any images of the real things so he got some that look similar
The word kid comes from old Norse "kith" meaning young goat

@Mø Nälayé Eh.....what? You do realize warthogs are a completely different species from Eurasian boars, right? That would like showing a bison and calling it an aurochs-oh wait, he did that too in this video.
He also showed a bison while talking about the aurochs. Obviously, the only thing he checked with the footage he used was what type of animal it featured not which species. I'm surprised he didn't confuse an African wild dog for a wolf XD

You forgot another kind of bee, the melipona bees, also known as stingless bees, which have an extension from Argentina to Mexico.
Their hives are very small and don't produce honey en masse like the European honeybee, but besides being used for sweetening foods and drinks, their honey was more valued for their medical applications.

Austrolopithecus first emerged in East Africa close to three million years ago. It isn't known exactly why they declined, but climate change and evolutionary transition likely had a lot to do with it. It's important to note that H. erectus was the first hominin to master fire for cooking just under two million years ago.
Fun fact, one of the first creatures we domesticated as livestock, was actually snails.

The earth: how many animals would you like to domesticate?
Turkey: *yes*
Well, the not the turkish, but the people who used to live there long before the turks. Let's remember the actual turks reached and established themselves in Anatolia just like the Europeans did in the Americas, before the turks, what is now turkey was as greek as Greece gets. And before them, other ancient civilizations like the Hittites.
Toph Beifong that’s why I said Turkey and not the turkish.
@@EarthChampion_TophBeifong Anatolians and Greeks are totally different nations
Alperen Başer there was never been an “Anatolian nation” since the Hittites in the Bronze Age, an empire that existed for 3 centuries, after its fall Western Anatolia has always been populated by Greeks, ruled by different empires like Lydia, Persia, the Seleucid and the Romans for approximately 2000 (two thousand!) years until the Mongols forced the Turks to immigrate into Western Asia and later they started conquering land from the Byzantine Romans under Seljuk Empire’s leadership.
@@EarthChampion_TophBeifong Lydia is not different Empire but a Anatolian state just like Hattians and Cappadocians
Just a minor detail, I’d like to point out... just to clear up any misconceptions: there were no Turkic people in Anatolia during the times these animals were domesticated.

Thank you. Now that veggietales song "The Song of the Zebu" finally makes sense!
From a ranching POV I'd like to simplify the notion that livestock is necessarily domesticated, and the notion that early humans must have captured baby animals to raise for meat.
Livestock is simply live stock - animals, including wild animals, left alive for convenience to be slaughtered later. You can drive live stock under its own power to your camp or village. There you may cow it and corral or hobble it. Live stock doesn't rot, nor attract scavenger packs. It is called live stock because it is self-preserving meat. Stock many and kill at leisure as needed, not foolishly out in the field.

Fascinating topic, I'd love to see a video on key agricultural crops civilizations utilized as primary food source. Einkorn wheat, Emmer Wheat, barley, millet, rice, and potatoes come to mind as immediate topics of interest that fundamentally fueled key civilizations around the world, but frankly there's a huge variety to be had and these are just the immediate one. Yucca, yams, and onions (the latter of which were considered military food by the Greeks), are also interesting to consider. This is really not even getting into what we've done, like with plants from the Brassica-you have brussel sprouts, cauliflower, kale, collared greens, etc.

That's pretty disappointing 😔😞 I would like to know about buffalo and their milk products

In Italy mozzarella can be made out of cow milk or buffalo milk (and apparently sheep and goat). If it's made out of buffalo milk it will be clearly stated and you will find it as "mozzarella di bufala campana" or similar denominations. On the other hand if it's just "mozzarella" without specification, it's made out of cow milk.
Puma concolor cool
I'm pretty sure you showed footage of warthogs, not eurasian boars.
Goat and Sheep were domesticated on Zagros mountains on Western Iran not Turkey.
Honey bees are also thought to be domesticated in the same area that agriculture was invented (Asian side of the middle east). The wall paintings in Egypt is much younger than the actual time they were domesticated and it is just the way Egyptians used to record things but wasnt very popular in the rest of the Middle East.

How about a video on how background radiation has affected genetic diversity. We know that the background radiation was much higher millions of years ago, but how high was it during different eras(?), and how much affect would it have had?
So Çayönü Tepesi is most probably the most important town in the entire history of the world. The more you know.
Maybe they just found many bones of animals there, it doesn't mean animals were not held in other places too.
Yep, this is true for many of those "earliest X" claims. Cayönü is a site where we have actually found evidence of early domestication. It's entirely possible (and even probable) that at other sites in the region (or elsewhere) humans did similar things. Maybe we haven't found them, yet, and maybe they have disappeared forever so Cayönü will stay the site with the oldest evidence - but that is not necessarily due to them being the first, it's due to the random chance of that site surviving to be excavated and studied.
It was probably an entire region and not just one town. There is another site in eastern Turkey called Göbekli Tepe that hosts the worlds oldest known building site, and is thought to be where the ancestral wheat (Einkorn) was first "domesticated". Many archeologists now believe it was in that area, and not in Sumeria/Babylonia that civilization first appeared. It seems without them, we would not have any real meat or bread to eat. Let's just say we'd still be sleeping caves. The more you know indeed ;)
In most of these contexts you should refer to turkey as Anatolia, at the time it was not called turkey, and not inhabited by Turks. Rather, it was inhabited by Armenians and Greeks.
There we're no greeks or armenians at that time yet .....

I heard a slightly different story for how the bird turkey got its name. I heard that the Turks sold Guinea Fowls in Europe, and Europeans sometimes called them Turkey birds because they were birds from Turkey, then when they saw what we now call Turkeys they were like "hey that looks like a Turkey bird" and called it a turkey

10:41 - I shook my head in disagreement because a variety of a silkworm is actually fried and eaten by a few tribes in Assam (North-Eastern India). It tastes like the French version of scrambled eggs.
Some Chinese eat silkworms too, after they took the cocoons for silk, the pupa inside it was fried and eaten. It's perhaps a side product of silk-making.
Yes. I've eaten silk work larvae in Korea. They look like little cockroaches. It's like eating a tasteless, dusty powder.
silk worms are eaten all over asia it seems like. Especially southeast asia.
@Dylan L you don't get parasites by eating insects you fucking idiot. They mostly live inside vertebrates.
Also horse originated in North America. Around time when land bridge allowed human migration into Americas horses migrated out of it.

This is a great video, also great to know you have a sense of humor behind that formal speech
Cattle were actually domesticated in two places independently:-
1. In the Sahara in north-east Africa.
2. In the Indus Valley in Pakistan.
Problem with the politics of domestication is massive European dominance in research and production of knowledge in the modern world.
As a result, African domesticate are often credited to the Middle East.
Where it is difficult to do so, they then give it to the Egyptians to mean the Nile Valley and Sahara peoples
So what you're saying is that the aurochs was never domesticated, because their natural range did not extend into Africa, Funny then how the closest living relative, genetically, to the Eurasian Auroch is a breed of cattle from Switzerland.
@@fintan9705 ha ha ha Aurochs were in Africa, the Sahara and East Africa in ancient times including Barbary Bears and wolves.
The only actual archeological sites with evidence of domestication of Aurochs into cattle are in Africa (e.g. Nabta Playa) and in Pakistan (Indus Valley domestication of Bos Indicus/Sanga cattle).
There are no archeological sites in Europe.
However, presently the economically, politically and scientifically dominant people in the world are Europeans.
We have seen how the archeogenetic centres in Germany have interpreted and attributed every ancient genetic study to Europe's favour namely:-
1. The ancient population of Egypt
2. The pig / wild boar as 'domesticated in Europe/Anatolia
3. The dog as domesticated in Europe / claimed to be genetically related to European wolves
4. Cattle as European domestica despite the absence of any evidence except the claimed genetic relation of cattle of European Aurochs (previously Europeans claimed cattle were domesticated in the Near East)
@Shivam Joshi I do not believe there was any domestication in Anatolia.
There is something called 'The Great Anatolia Theft' - basically Europeans using their monopoly on archeo-genetics to attribute ancient civilisations and human achievements of Africa and West Asia to 'Anatolian Farmers' i.e. alleged ancestors of modern Europeans.
See Iron discovery. The real oldest sites are in Iran and Central Africa. Yet, it is the so-called Anatolian farmers we are told ushered the Iron Age.
If you notice, all of the Middle East / Fertile Crescents' discoveries that gained it the label 'cradle of civilization' have all now been bequethed to Anatolia.
The pig, wheat, iron even the very concept of farming has suddenly become an ancient European / Anatolia achievement.
As shivam joshi says, it is entirely possible that there were three or possibly even more successful domestication attempts with the aurochs.
You posted nonsense without a source, yet people still liked your comment because they agree with the narrative you're trying to push. Sad state of affairs
