Questions What do you think of the boxes with the time period I was talking about in the upper left-hand corner? Was this helpful or distracting/cluttered looking? Also, what do you think of no music in this video? Let me know what you think :)
the boxes were a great idea, often when studying ancient history its easy to lose track of the time as the story unfolds... and everything is better with music.
I'm proud to say, I'm an Assyrian From Iraq and now living in USA. My grandparents were from Van, Turkey. I enjoy learning my rich history. Thank you for posting this video!
as a Greek/Assyrian I thank you for simply mentioning that we still exist today showing some pictures and most importantly that we are a distinct people
This is Laflare Tv Wake up bud, Egyptians were not afro-black....the interior of Egypt as nothing to do with the sub-saharan people. The definition of kemet is not physical, but material, it means dark soil .
Young Savage Painted on the wall lol, who you calling sand people, that’s true they are painted on the wall and look at their image do they look afro-black to you , no they don’t, the Egyptians used many colors, each color had a meaning, do you know what black represented?
SailorDapperJr technically yes. For the most part the Christian populations of Syria and Iraq are mainly the descendants of Arameans and Assyrians (due to marrying within the same religion trait in he Middle East), while Muslim Syrians and Northern Iraqis would mostly be mixed between Assyrian, Aramean, and Arab elements (along with other elements of course). Syrians tend to have more “Aramean” elements while northern Iraqi’s tend to have a mix of both.
Thank you for that. When I first entered college my history instructor said Assyrians were extinct. I quickly stood up and corrected him as I am 90% Assyrian and 10% Armenian. This was in 1965.
The place of Assyria was dissolved due to invasion of different empires but the people are still there, it will be recognized by their culture, races, religions and language. I think you should claim also one place in the middle east assyrians to be called your country for you have a rich history, like Jews they claim their mother land Israel. Israel was subdugated by Assyrians 700 B.C. as proven by the Bible in the book of Jonah and Isaiah. Nkakaawa kayo Assyrians kalat kalat lang kayo sa salitang Filipino.
Hello, there are a lot of Assyrians and Chaldeans in Iraq and Syria, and I am an Arab, but from Chaldeans (Arabist) and many of the Iraqi people are Assyrians and Chaldeans, but with the Islamic conquest they converted to Islam and used the Arabic language

The Fall of Nineveh from the greatest city the world had ever seen to an uninhabited ruin at the very peak of its power is one of the great events in history that rarely gets mentioned.
This is so true. Such a titanic event in history is so overlooked. Everyone knows about the fall of Rome, but your average ancient history class will barely mention the Assyrian Empire or the fall of Nineveh.
To my Assyrians friends, despite what has happened in Iraq, you are still here after thousands of years. You people are a testament to perservience and resilience. Keep up the struggle. One day you will have your land back. You have always had time.
In exchange for our service to Britain in WW2 we were supposed to have been given our land back by the British. Churchill referred to us as “our smallest allies” Then, after the war, gave the Jewish people their land since they got the same deal. Which is great, but we got nothing. The Kurds committed genocide against us and took our homes.
@The troll master Yes, it is true. My grandfather had to flee the hakkari mountains on foot to escape the Kurds who carried out the genocide. He ended up serving as an intelligence officer for the British and being given land in canada after being taken back to Britain at the end of the war. I could tell you stories all day about the first 15 years of my grandfather’s life back in Iraq as an Assyrian. When he died in 2004 at 104 years old there were three funerals for him, one in Canada and two in the USA. Most of the Assyrians in Iraq have been killed off now, and the rest are forced to live as arabs and convert just to stay alive. It’s an atrocity. I don’t know what you’re trying to refute with your condescending response, but read a book before you open up your mouth that way. I’m sure you know a lot of things, but you don’t know everything.
Great video. Ashurbanipal is also famous for the great library he founded in Nineveh. He tried to collect all the books (clay tablets) he could. Alexander attempted to imitate him later with his great library in Alexandria, Egypt. Very much of what we now know of Sumer, Akkad, and Assyria comes from the clay tablets collected and preserved so well by Ashurbanipal.

MDE NCL No, I believe the Urartians and the proto-Armenians cohabited in the region that eventually became identified as the Armenian Highlands. However, upon the rise of the Iranic powers east of Mesopotamia, the Urartian people -- as past rulers -- lost their legitimacy and eventually assimilated/interbred with the proto-Armenians to create the Armenian populace. We already had cohesion at the time of the Achaemenid ruler King Cyrus, whose romanticized stories in Xenephon's Cyropedia include an Armenian king and his son Tigranes conferring with Cyrus.

أبواشور Don’t start it! The ottoman muslims did that when they received orders from zionists تجار الربا اليهود , yes they killed our people because they were practicing verses from quran just like muhammed did with khaybar Kuraytha and bani alnatheer but these people got orders from their bosses ! I blame UK France & US who stood there and watched us dying without helping! they were busy filming taking photos of the dead bodies crimes etc !! What destroyed humanity is the abrahamic religions that created hatred in us as humans
Thank you kardeşim am Assyrian and i have no hatred in my heart toward Tengeri brothers/sisters , my problem is with the ideology that you guys follow (islam)! All religions are fucked up but islam is super nasty and whoever believes in it they try to force it on others we as Assyrians love life alcohol dance education our nature is secular it’s hard for us to survive with the ideology of islam cause everything is haram only under table is halal! our muslim neighbours in Baghdad used to fuck kids on the roof and in the day time they go to mosque elhamdullah we are muslims give me a break 😂
Georgios ok well I’m guessing arif didn’t personally kill anyone considering he isn’t a 105 year old Turkish solder and hes just trying to make a nice comment about our history. Relax nasha.
@wolfstudio In Syria and Iraq there is a Christian Assyrian minority that still speaks the Assyrian language and has nothing to do with the Arabs In the end we are all human
I am an Assyrian and proud of my old ancestors of what they invented in those days but it’s a shame how the Assyrians are never mentioned or allowed to have their lands back from the invaders.
get a group of people together and claim it once more... begin petitioning ... it might take years, but the young generation will have something to do instead of doing nothing and watching videos. What do you think?
Your land is one small city that wasn't even the oldest one and Assyrians themselves invaded so many places and destroyed so many things and the people of Iraq right now are a mix of many different Gene's and races .. I don't understand why a lot of Iraqis have this mindset of disloyalty to their nation . everyone wants a god damn piece of this country , why ?
Epimetheus hey can you do Sicilians and Italians? I would like to know why my DNA test showed Middle Eastern and North African and Caucasian [ Armenians] ancestry. I checked family records and it don't show up

This was a really interesting video to watch. I've always wanted to know more about the Ancient Assyrians. Other than their reputation for brutality and their epic fall.
As an Assyrian I just wanted to say thanks for the video and the shout out at the end. We were definitely an empire that were experts of warfare but also progenitors of civilization, math/science and cultural achievements - I hope this can get touched on more thoroughly in new videos on UA-cam. You can see the usual Anti-Assyrian suspects in the comments below - please report their racist rhetoric.
Great and historically accurate, from an Assyrian who recognizes that my great ancestors had one of the greatest empires in history. Thank you for this video
Totally awesome as usual. What I love most about your videos is their shorter format that peaks my interest and entices me to do even more in-depth research. I'm a details kind of guy.
I am half ethnical assyrian, from my father, he is from tur abdin, this people are the remanents of the assyrian empire, we are turoyo and speak neo aramean, no mix with the arab invasors, christianisty is the religión our take in 2th century, I be pround of my lineage culture, we dont die, the cultures never die
@@zumagallerte4669 my other half is Spaniard, another awesome culture of conquerors, I cant be half breed, beacuase the assyrian and spanish are a Mediterrean, is the same subrace, but diferente ethnicy, and assyrian have little % of arab, persian, phoenician, armenian, georgian greek etc, and spanish have little % of celtic, italian, berber, phoenician, arab, germanic but all this people is caucasian
I really enjoyed the video, but I was surprised that you didn't mention the Assyrians being subject to a genocide alongside the Armenians and the Greeks under Ottoman rule. I gather that this is more of a ancient historical look at them and you mention them at the end of the video, but they are what you would call an endangered people. I also think the fact that they were able to survive genocide at the hands of the Ottomans and then their current situation in which their Homeland is ruled over by hostile ethno-religious groups who systematically oppress and I have brought them to the brink of no longer existing in their Homeland. I think the genocide should at least be mentioned beings it was the first one of the twentieth century and they were among the primary targets and victims. I enjoy and appreciate your videos and keep up the good work! Thank you
@OtherWorlds AllWorlds He doesn't need to apologize, this was clearly done base on Turkish nationalistic sentiment which was/is condemned by all Muslims, furthermore this is nothing comparing to the crimes of the Crusades and Spanish inquisition which was highly instigated and endorsed by the church and the Christians.

Excellent overview of Assyrian history. The Assyrian cuneiform syllabary (such as Ras Shamra) was derived from earlier complicated cuneiform systems, such as Babylonian. And these easliest systems evolved from Jemdet Nasr symbols found on the earliest cylinder seals.
@Son of Mountain Old Assyrians spoke Neo-Aramaic just like Assyrians of today and NO, you are not medians 😭😭 how are you going to say assyrians are not assyrians bc they don't speak Akkadian even though they spoke Neo-Aramaic since 6th century BCE AND THEN SAY WE ARE MEDES WHEN YOU DONT EVEN SPEAK FHE LANGUAGE OF ANCIENT MEDES 😂😂 YOU SPEAK A LANGUAGE FROM PAKISTAN
@Son of Mountain Egyptians, Palestinians, Israelis, Persians, none of these people speak the ancient language of their people. Assyrians still speak Neo-Aramaic, the language of ancient Assyrians...🤦🏼♂️ And on top of that you are Muslim Gypsy, you have no right to tell anyone who they are LMFAO
@Son of Mountain Dude you don't even speak the language of Hurrians, you don't even speak the language of Medians 😭 There is no evidence, ABSOLUTELY ZERO THAT YOU ARE ANYTHING BUT MIGRANTS FROM CENTRAL ASIA.
@Son of Mountain It's fake, those tests can be easily manipulated to push an agenda. Kurds have absolutely zero proof they are indigenous. All signs point to a migration of nomads that later formed their own nation.
Thank you as usual for this excellence Epimetheus 💪 especially for covering part of my ancestors (the other part is Phoenician and I am absolutely looking forward to your video on that)
@Matthew brother, being Assyrian is a matter of ethnicity, not religion. I am ethnically Assyrian and Phoenician (this is evidenced per my surname which means "welded" in Syriac - Suryoyo). In terms of religion, I am Muslim. I've tracked my ancestry through my family historian and found that we converted to Islam recently, technically speaking. I've also tracked my lineage through DNA tests which reported that I am only 9% Arab ~ very residual stuff. We did not magically transform into Arabs the moment we converted to Islam ; ) I maintain my Assyrian-Phoenician identity proudly and always.
@Matthew well i don't think that they are necesarily christian , just generally, and they are not catholic, i believe they are in a seperate branch of christianity
@@TimesNewCanaanite good for you, and in your writing I sense that you are not a fundamentalist, i also wonder, are you a seperatist (wanting an assyrian state) or do you just feel assyrian and feel no wish or need to gain self determination as a people
@@SummerLee-lm3df No the Arameans, they populated Assyria, changed the Assyrian language to Aramean. A branch of aramean (the kaldeans) populated Babylon and had kings there.
yep, we're still around. We even got our language into the computer age, see? -> 'ܫܠܡܐ'. We even got the letters that were specifically made for medieval parsi -> 'ݍݎݏ'
Great video Epimetheusit, it would be great to follow history on, bronze age, archaic, classical etc. I also noticed how your artwork has improved, your videos are a great way do education.
I love these videos. I remember reading about the bronze age and the cultures residing in the fertile crescent as well as playing Age of Empires I. This period always had an air of fantasy about it for me: great kings, far away empires and the rise of civilization.
@Son of Mountain not true. Akkad was spoken by... Akkadians and it was the first Semitic language. Later on, Assyrians came along and spoke Assyrian, another Semitic language.
not really, rome had a system that was pretty different, it was like how some historians depict the iroquois as being the romans of north america, no they are not, they are also a complex and interesting society but rome was completely different on most things, and even rome itsself was completely different in each major stage of it's development, the assyrian empire in contrast stayed mostly the same, with a divine ruler and so on, and it must be said that this also counted for their contemporaries in the middle east, both later and earlier on, and in fact to this day the region remains dominated by autoritarian rulers
Chaldean Assyrian Modern “Assyrians” are maybe related , but Ancient ones have nothing to do with any European , they were Semitic and only Arabs and Babylonians were close to them , and the only descendants of the ancient Assyrians are Arabized Iraqis .
I made a 2 part vid where I cover the history of the entire middle east and balkans up until the death of Alexander the great. Here's part 1 if ur interested ua-cam.com/video/JGuCSTqTahs/v-deo.html
I find it interesting how Assyria’s greatest expansionist king (Tiglath Pileser 3) comes after a couple of stagnant reigns, including the only female ruler (regent). It is a possibility that Shamshi Adad 5 could have been the king in Nineveh that Jonah preached repentance to. His reign and his successor’s reign are very quiet. I view it as them taking the repentance to heart.
Thanks to your videos, I understand why Assyria (amongst others) are playable in the game Civilization V. I had no idea about all those empires and how big they were!
Love your work. You do such a great job with these bronze age documentaries, while short, are very informative. Plus you don't get muddled down with archeology like more large scale documentaries. Still hope to see a Canaanite video. Lol, and an Egyptian Empire too. Keep up the good work, it's loved.
Louis Vanden Broucke Scythians were confederation of Eurasian tribes across Europe and Asia, Scythians played a major role on Near Eastern governance and ruling.
Scythians were actually the Aryans, originated in the Caucasus region who invaded and conquered the Iranian plateau(highlands), Asia Minor, Mesopotamia, Levant, Indus valley region, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, & Southern Europe. Scythians are the origin of civilization; they built the first cities, kingdoms, & empires. All the indo-european languages(or Aryan languages) originated from the Scythian tribes. Scythians were WHITE.
@@jaywolf4183 true. And they don't teach us that the first Greeks were white. Same with the first century romans. Their huge numbers of slaves from all the wars that they brought to Europe at that time became free after many generations and mixed with the indigenous people. In Rome it was common to buy your own freedom if you had the means to do so. That's why there is such a "mediteranean" look in southern europe. It's just real history. No racism intended.

Thats why you killed us in Hakkari miltalry vs civilians 1914-1920

Don’t start it! The ottoman muslims did that when they received orders from zionists تجار الربا اليهود , yes they killed our people because they were practicing verses from quran just like muhammed did with khaybar Kuraytha and bani alnatheer but these people got orders from their bosses ! I blame UK France & US who stood there and watched us dying without helping! they were busy filming taking photos of the dead bodies crimes etc !! What destroyed humanity is the abrahamic religions that created hatred in us as humans
Thank you kardeşim am Assyrian and i have no hatred in my heart toward Tengeri brothers/sisters , my problem is with the ideology that you guys follow (islam)! All religions are fucked up but islam is super nasty and whoever believes in it they try to force it on others we as Assyrians love life alcohol dance education our nature is secular it’s hard for us to survive with the ideology of islam cause everything is haram only under table is halal! our muslim neighbours in Baghdad used to fuck kids on the roof and in the day time they go to mosque elhamdullah we are muslims give me a break 😂
Georgios ok well I’m guessing arif didn’t personally kill anyone considering he isn’t a 105 year old Turkish solder and hes just trying to make a nice comment about our history. Relax nasha.

Hey man im curious do you have another name or something i cant find anything about modern assyrians

Don’t get too excited. You’re not the real Assyrians.
I am an Assyrian and proud of my old ancestors of what they invented in those days but it’s a shame how the Assyrians are never mentioned or allowed to have their lands back from the invaders.
get a group of people together and claim it once more... begin petitioning ... it might take years, but the young generation will have something to do instead of doing nothing and watching videos. What do you think?
Your land is one small city that wasn't even the oldest one and Assyrians themselves invaded so many places and destroyed so many things and the people of Iraq right now are a mix of many different Gene's and races .. I don't understand why a lot of Iraqis have this mindset of disloyalty to their nation . everyone wants a god damn piece of this country , why ?
You got it backwards. You guys invaded everybody around you and then they took back their lands. Don't you know your own history?

This was a really interesting video to watch. I've always wanted to know more about the Ancient Assyrians. Other than their reputation for brutality and their epic fall.

Thanks for your amazing videos!

As an Assyrian I just wanted to say thanks for the video and the shout out at the end. We were definitely an empire that were experts of warfare but also progenitors of civilization, math/science and cultural achievements - I hope this can get touched on more thoroughly in new videos on UA-cam.

Thanks for going in so much more depth. Loving the longer videos

Glad you made that last comment acknowledging the modern Assyrians!
Totally awesome as usual. What I love most about your videos is their shorter format that peaks my interest and entices me to do even more in-depth research. I'm a details kind of guy.
I am half ethnical assyrian, from my father, he is from tur abdin, this people are the remanents of the assyrian empire, we are turoyo and speak neo aramean, no mix with the arab invasors, christianisty is the religión our take in 2th century, I be pround of my lineage culture, we dont die, the cultures never die
And yet you're only a half breed. Doesn't that suck? Such a long and awesome history and then you just mix it away.

@@zumagallerte4669 What the f*ck is actually wrong with you
I really enjoyed the video, but I was surprised that you didn't mention the Assyrians being subject to a genocide alongside the Armenians and the Greeks under Ottoman rule. I gather that this is more of a ancient historical look at them and you mention them at the end of the video, but they are what you would call an endangered people. I also think the fact that they were able to survive genocide at the hands of the Ottomans and then their current situation in which their Homeland is ruled over by hostile ethno-religious groups who systematically oppress and I have brought them to the brink of no longer existing in their Homeland. I think the genocide should at least be mentioned beings it was the first one of the twentieth century and they were among the primary targets and victims. I enjoy and appreciate your videos and keep up the good work! Thank you
Islam will do that
@OtherWorlds AllWorlds
He doesn't need to apologize, this was clearly done base on Turkish nationalistic sentiment which was/is condemned by all Muslims, furthermore this is nothing comparing to the crimes of the Crusades and Spanish inquisition which was highly instigated and endorsed by the church and the Christians.

Excellent overview of Assyrian history. The Assyrian cuneiform syllabary (such as Ras Shamra) was derived from earlier complicated cuneiform systems, such as Babylonian. And these easliest systems evolved from Jemdet Nasr symbols found on the earliest cylinder seals.

@Son of Mountain Egyptians, Palestinians, Israelis, Persians, none of these people speak the ancient language of their people. Assyrians still speak Neo-Aramaic, the language of ancient Assyrians...🤦🏼♂️ And on top of that you are Muslim Gypsy, you have no right to tell anyone who they are LMFAO
@Son of Mountain Dude you don't even speak the language of Hurrians, you don't even speak the language of Medians 😭 There is no evidence, ABSOLUTELY ZERO THAT YOU ARE ANYTHING BUT MIGRANTS FROM CENTRAL ASIA.
@Son of Mountain It's fake, those tests can be easily manipulated to push an agenda. Kurds have absolutely zero proof they are indigenous. All signs point to a migration of nomads that later formed their own nation.

But ruled with a lot of stick, and no carrot, so unlike the Romans, they were utterly defeated and their capitol erased from history
Chad Castagana Our capital wasn’t erased from history though? It’s literally in history books.
The visuals and storytelling in this ancient history documentary are simply outstanding!
Thank you as usual for this excellence Epimetheus 💪 especially for covering part of my ancestors (the other part is Phoenician and I am absolutely looking forward to your video on that)
@Matthew brother, being Assyrian is a matter of ethnicity, not religion. I am ethnically Assyrian and Phoenician (this is evidenced per my surname which means "welded" in Syriac - Suryoyo). In terms of religion, I am Muslim. I've tracked my ancestry through my family historian and found that we converted to Islam recently, technically speaking. I've also tracked my lineage through DNA tests which reported that I am only 9% Arab ~ very residual stuff. We did not magically transform into Arabs the moment we converted to Islam ; ) I maintain my Assyrian-Phoenician identity proudly and always.
@Matthew also brother Assyrians and Arabs are related by virtue of their Semitism. All Semites are related "cousins" per se.
@Matthew well i don't think that they are necesarily christian , just generally, and they are not catholic, i believe they are in a seperate branch of christianity
@@TimesNewCanaanite good for you, and in your writing I sense that you are not a fundamentalist, i also wonder, are you a seperatist (wanting an assyrian state) or do you just feel assyrian and feel no wish or need to gain self determination as a people

After watching this video, the Romans were just the Assyrians of Europe :)
not really, rome had a system that was pretty different, it was like how some historians depict the iroquois as being the romans of north america, no they are not, they are also a complex and interesting society but rome was completely different on most things, and even rome itsself was completely different in each major stage of it's development, the assyrian empire in contrast stayed mostly the same, with a divine ruler and so on, and it must be said that this also counted for their contemporaries in the middle east, both later and earlier on, and in fact to this day the region remains dominated by autoritarian rulers
why do I feel that Assyrians are pretty close to the Germans and Italians genetically?
Kayhan shasavar no one knows.

I find it interesting how Assyria’s greatest expansionist king (Tiglath Pileser 3) comes after a couple of stagnant reigns, including the only female ruler (regent). It is a possibility that Shamshi Adad 5 could have been the king in Nineveh that Jonah preached repentance to. His reign and his successor’s reign are very quiet. I view it as them taking the repentance to heart.

It would be cool of you'd do a video about Scythians! I think they were fascinating
not near eastern though, and they only started to realy play a part around the time of the diadochii successor states, and even so later on in those,
Louis Vanden Broucke Scythians were confederation of Eurasian tribes across Europe and Asia, Scythians played a major role on Near Eastern governance and ruling.
It would be difficult since they were so diverse and occupied such a vast teritory.
Scythians were actually the Aryans, originated in the Caucasus region who invaded and conquered the Iranian plateau(highlands), Asia Minor, Mesopotamia, Levant, Indus valley region, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, & Southern Europe. Scythians are the origin of civilization; they built the first cities, kingdoms, & empires. All the indo-european languages(or Aryan languages) originated from the Scythian tribes. Scythians were WHITE.
@@jaywolf4183 true. And they don't teach us that the first Greeks were white. Same with the first century romans. Their huge numbers of slaves from all the wars that they brought to Europe at that time became free after many generations and mixed with the indigenous people. In Rome it was common to buy your own freedom if you had the means to do so. That's why there is such a "mediteranean" look in southern europe. It's just real history. No racism intended.
