The Ninth Legion - ASMR History of Legio IX Hispana
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 чер 2024
- The Ninth Legion (Legio IX Hispana, also sometimes called the "Lost Legion") had a long history. It served under command of Julius Caesar during the First Century BC, on the side of Octavian in the civil war against Mark Antony and Cleopatra, was sent to Spain, Germania, Pannonia and Britain. In Roman Britain, it fought rebellions, including the rebellion of Queen Boudica in which it narrowly avoided destruction.
But its trace gets lost in Northern England in the early Second Century AD, which is highly unusual for such an important unit at a time when the Roman Empire was in good shape overall. Was it destroyed in Britain by Celtic tribes, sent to the Netherlands, or did it disappear in a later conflict, in Judea or Cappadocia? In this story, we look at the hypothesis and the historical context, which is a good opportunity to explore what Roman legions were, the conquest of Roman Britain and other aspects of Roman history.

You are such a class act for not monetizing these videos, still, after years of building your audience. I hate how UA-cam pairs bright, loud ads with ASMR content. Thank you so much for your art.
That's the most annoying shit ever. Starting to doze off then a loud commercial blasts through😢 why
- UA-cam Vanced or
- Adblockers (soon no longer with chrome)
I hear everyone complaining about youtube ads but havent seen a youtube ad since 2-3 years. Maybe Im a part of the problem, but then they just wants to make profits $$$.
For dessert I present the Sponsor Block addon, which just skips sponsored segments in many videos :)
Agreed. Most are selfish
I’ll watch later commenting for algorithms
That's the attitude
Based
Not all heroes wear capes - some comment on UA-cam videos!
This is the way
@@0smuzz0hero for commenting on UA-cam?!?! That’s a new low and crazy disrespectful to military personnel. I’m embarrassed for you.
In my opinion no-one does it better than you, you English it good but when you make a mistake it just makes me smile. Can't thank you enough for what you do.
Does it make you feel sad for the rest?!!!.
It's French but it's ok The Brits also do a nice jobm.
It’s always a fight between wanting to learn and your voice making it so easy for me to sleep. Gonna have to watch this one several times.
I have been happily, sleepily fighting that for years too! Another reason I’m excited for this new podcast/channel😊🤓👩🏻🏫📖📚🥱😴💤📻
Halo everyone
halo
Halo 😊

Hi there
First thought when I saw this video was honestly; "duh, the lost legion is locked in an everlasting battle to protect our dimension from aliens, behind a portal under an ancient hill in Scotland, do people not pay attention when Doctor Who is on?"
I really love how all of your topics somehow touch on something I'm interested in, it's fascinating to learn from you. Congratulations on your new channel!
But like why does that actually sound reasonable though? lol, unaware of the Dr Who narrative but I but it sounds plausible & logical to me 😂😊
Best comment award from me to you 👏👏👏
I don't think I would ever characterize your English as "dubious." I am a native speaker and rarely have problems understanding these wonderful videos.
I've been listening to you before you hit 100k subscribers. Thanks for the stories, and for your time making them. Helps the PTSD at night. 🇺🇲🤙
I am always in awe of the amount of research it takes to share these talks so fluently and easily understood. Thank you!
You've officially done it again. Crazy good choice in topic its like you know every single interest of mine. Your a Legend man keep up the amazing work
Je comprend très bien l’intention du nouveau podcasts. Ton travail d’étude sur les sujets est énorme et mérite d’être présenté sous un format plus large d’accès . N’arrête jamais l’asmr il y a trop de gens accrocs!!
🍟
man this has really changed my life. on nights i don’t listen, i stay up for hours mind racing heart beating out of my chest overwhelmed with thoughts. and i am not an anxious person, i consider myself quite resilient and laid back. but i am soooo dependent on these videos in order to fall asleep. unless i’m travelling and completely exhausted about to pass out, the airpods are coming to bed with me! 🤣
I love how you use your hands and ornaments while you bless us with your soothing voice. You are an angel created by God. Love your voice and channel.
Honestly while it's ASMR I really come for both the history and the soothing and relaxing voice. What's weird if I never listen to you to sleep, but you have the perfect voice for me to listen to while I'm working as it just kind of calms me down and makes the work day much more relaxing.
I'll definitely check out lights out library, sounds right up my alley as well.
His voice is like a massage for your brain. 🫠
Thank you, I hope your recent stuff goes up on to your own Spotify, there is nothing wrong with your accent!
I hope so too, I have already sent everything I could for that, but the folks who upload have had technical issues for two months
@@TheFrenchWhispererASMR fingers crossed for you, love your work
Oh my goodness yes some of us come for those particularities exactly. Your voice is so soothing. Finding your stories changed my life. Thank you for being you and for what you do.
Absolutely 😊
So excited to have a new video! I’ve almost exhausted your back catalogue for the second time so anything new is so great! I have enjoyed listening to lights out library to get a slightly different verse of the stories I already love
No entiendo muy bien el inglés, pero el tema me interesa y tu voz y estética son hermosas. Se valora enormemente el trabajo detrás del video :D♡
Tiene videos en español con castellano perfecto al igual que en francés, su lengua madre. A veces cubre el mismo tema en cada lengua, un trabajo inmensurable!
EDIT: tengo entendido que es francés y vive en Chile si no me equivoco.
@@obcl8569 queee, no sabía eso! Este hombre sin duda es un genio
Perfect timing for the upload, now I don’t have to waste time scrolling for the perfect asmr for tonight. Thanks as always for creating some of the best ASMR content on the platform.
How is it that every time I learn some interesting historical tidbit, I go to look it up and you've always JUST released a video on it. Great stuff.
A treat as always
Thank you very much for creating these highly interesting and relaxing videos! It is greatly appreciated
You're a treasure. Thank you so much for all the work and time you put into these.
Love your stuff man, always well researched!
Congratulations on the new channel! I'll hear the stories on both, since I always sleep halfway the video and keep coming back and learning something else each time.
You are the best and your work here and in your new library on UA-cam deserves to be more acknowledged. I'll help recommending your channels of course. Keep it up and thanks for your videos.
Oh me, oh my! Talk about a welcome surprise! Ive got goosebumps already! Thank you for such amazing & informative content. Truly unrivaled in your style of vids! Thank you for LOL, too! So much yes.
Can't wait for this this evening thank you so much❤🎉
Thank you for your dedication to delivering top notch content!
More legions and stuff please! This is brilliant ❤❤❤
How exciting! As usual when you post a new one, I'm counting the hours til bedtime. I already like it before I even listen.❤
Every time you upload it’s a banger 🙌🏼
Excellently written and produced. Fascinating!
It’s always a good night when you post a new video, if i wasn’t living month to month myself i’d love to support your work thank you for providing this quality of videos for free 🙏
Immediately subscribed to lights out library, can't wait for the 1001 Nights video, as it's one of my favourites of your channel. Keep up the great work 👍
Obsessed with your channel! Thank you for not monetizing!
I already subscribed to Lights out Library! My boyfriend and I love your channel; it's the only one we can agree to that helps us both sleep, and I love listening to both channels while reading and doing chores around the house. Good luck with the new channel!
I tried the Late Night Library. Nice, but I absolutely prefer you and your channel. Thank you for all you do and all the nights you’ve helped me sleep. Please don’t change and continue bringing peace to us.
Another amazing video as always.
thank you so much. i rejoice every time you release a video.
The Ninth Legion mystery, known to lots of us from our childhood by the novel The Eagle of the Ninth, by Rosemary Sutcliff (and a movie I think w Joaquim Phoenix) has always been one of my favourite stories, so very happy that you’ve chosen to tell the story here. I so enjoy ur ASMR work, and always prefer to listen via youtube to watch the lovely calming videos that you make to go along with ur narration. I hope ur new channel is a success, I’ve just had a listen to a couple of videos, and commented; I really wish you well with it. Only …. don’t forget about us, will you? Part of what makes this channel so successful is exactly the things which you think might be off putting to a wider audience, your ‘dubious’ english (it really isn’t!) and ur accent. Combined with the range of interesting stories, they make the perfect ASMR; ur services are still greatly needed here, so don’t leave us behind, please. I did wonder why you haven’t included a link back to this channel? Might be an idea.
This is super cool! A lot of my friends can't stand whispering and I was always so sad that I can't really recommend some videos of you to them due to that.
Especially the city planning ones I always wanted my partner to hear, she's super into that topic.
Roman history = Favorite
ASMR = Favorite
Your videos = Favorite ^2
Yes, i agree with other comments, your English is absolutely understandable. Your accent is the main reason I listen to yr work.
I dont know how i missed this...but im glad you are here tonight when i cant sleep!
i subscribe to your UA-cam channel before i knew it was you!! i love your videos so much, please never stop sharing history, love from Chile!
I’ve searched for other podcasts/UA-cam channel like yours but none are as satisfying as yours. My body responds immediately upon hearing “Hello everyone…” with a release of stress.
I always enjoy a good mystery and no one does it better the you! ❤
Beautiful work! ASMR is my favorite content.
This topic is very interesting, I use it for sleep tonight and I will come back tomorrow so I can fully understand it without the urge to sleep.
Thank you for another great story!
finally! so excited for this!
You are keeping history alive, may forgotten souls be remembered
I hope the new channel draws attention to how good your scripted outlines are-in any language.
Love it when you post!
Just subscribed to your new channel as i love your work... And i think your "dubious English" as you called it is adorable... and I'm English 😊
Bien fait mon ami! Te felicito por seguir abriendo compuertas y explorar maneras con cuales alcanzar a una gran y diversa audiencia. You're right, there is absolutely a space for this kind of podcast/YT channel. I look forward to listening as I clean the house & do yardwork without the guaranteed pavlovian response to your voice, "hallo," which inevitably sees me fall asleep lolol
Thank you endlessly for sharing your talent, I've said it before - you are more important to many of us than you'll ever know.
For the YEARS of peace & tranquility you've gifted me, I'd like to support your every venture - and this podcast is an exciting start 🎉😊❤.
Another wonderful story. Thank you ❤
I'm looking forward to this one! ❤
Great video!!
I love ❤️ your voice. “Hello, everyone.” So classic. Perfect. I LOVE YOU.
also your english is NOT dubious at all. it’s perfectly clear and understandable. once in a million chance do you even mispronounce a word, which us native speakers do often as well. you outta hear my gringa self butcher some spanish if you wanna feel good about your english!!! 😂❤❤❤ love you!
by the way notice my english here, “once in a million chance” is not even correct. English is an ever-evolving language that varies widely even from city to city! don’t sweat the small stuff,
The mispronunciations are also a little delightful though 💜
Love this! Thank you
I'M IN LOVE WITH YOUR CONTENTS!!!!! ❤️❤️
For the empire! This is one of my first videos of yours that isn’t science based and I’m so glade I’m watching it
As always, you are amazing ❤🔥💯
Thank you sir. Keep it up!
I love this one because I don’t know how it ends I fall asleep before it ends. Thanks You!! And I love lights out library
I like you way of narrating and your accent and will stay with your channel! No way I will switch))
Oooh, one of my favorite history-mysteries!
hi i’m watching again ❤ i’m excited for your new project. your channel deserves more growth, but i do like you being so interactive in the comments and being “ours” as selfish as it sounds lol. either way, more viewers, more content, more French, i’m happy. ❤
Excited for this one
Thx for the great story!
Good luck with your podcast 👍 i love your stories for falling asleep but when I tried doing chores with them I wasn't really efficient 😅 kept zoning out
Thankyou for the video
Wonderful!
One of my favourite channels.
This looks interesting!
Love this thanks
Fantastic, im so curious about this topic! I think because of a doctor who episode, but still 😅🤣
Commenting for algorithms love these videos
One of my favorite nighttime listens
I’m going to listen to this tomorrow when I’m awake. I love Roman military history!
Love learning as i pass out. PRAYSE BE THE ALGORITHM
Thank you so much. I will sleep easy tonight.
Best Sleepytime ASMR EVER 🎉❤🙏🏻
Ive already subscribed to Lights Out Library.
I love this one I have no idea how it ends because I always fall asleep before it is done ❤
This was wonderful. I just finished a lovely historical fiction series about the Commander of the Lucky Fifth. ❤
Thank you!
im watching again !! ❤ this time i will remember something lol
Never have I needed something more and not known it.
My French accent sucks ..I love listening to you speak. Best amsr, best research, best stories.❤
Congratulations on the new channel.
I wish it success.
May i ask if you plan to do a video on Shakespeare? It could be a medley of history, culture and stories.
As ever, your mythology and creation stories are always my favourite and i hope there are more to come soon 🙏
people come for your voice in conjunction with your breadth of knowledge and passions and the fact that you make asmr content that's educational; don't short-change yourself- I think francophiles only represent a small portion of your followers
Your voice is so mesmerising 💛
How about death by administration? Hadrian’s Wall was built about 60 years after the Londinium defeat. If new soldiers were added to the legion (new recruits), they would have been nearing retirement around the same time. They retired to the local area on land “provided” by Rome and started (continued?) to raise families. The defence on the area turned from Roman legion to local troops that were the sons of the soldiers. This deterioration of defence cause troubles, which lead to the building of Hadrian’s Wall. When the wall was built, the local troops were then enough and what was left of the ninth were sent to join another legion on the continent. Death by administration.
I doubt that contemporary writers would have "bragged" about the defeat of the 9th Legion, explaining the lack of references. I think that Britain was always intended an area for retired Roman soldiers. It is possible that so many soldiers retired in Britain that it was practical to reorganize the legions with the result that the 9th Legion disappeared. By having large numbers of veterans located on the northern border, it is probable that Rome thought that the retirees could form a militia to protect their homes and families that American colonists formed to protect themselves against the indigenous population. Hadrian's Wall served as more than a protection for the Romans. It was a significant way to tax imports and exports. It indicates there was enough contact between the Caledonians and Romans to make such trade sustainable. Could the Roman Legions have been reconstituted as a form of "Border Patrol" with small units serving in outposts along Hadrian's Wall?
Thankyou ☺️
