It’s 427 BCE, and the worst internal conflict ever to occur in the ancient Greek world is in its fourth year. Athens is facing a big decision: what to do with the people of Mytilene, a city on the island of Lesbos where a revolt against Athenian rule has just been put down. How did these kinds of decisions get made? Robert Garland outlines a day in the life of Athenian democracy.

TED-Ed so did the 2nd ship made it in time? Please I must know!
So I liked the video. The only flaw as Ozz Lee noted was that you didn't finish it. Now I have to go and look up if the second ship ever caught the first one. Otherwise my head will hurt for the rest of the night.
TED-Ed and?!?! What happened
need more!
Day in the life of a eygptian or malian
"A ship was immediately dispatched to Mytilene to countermand the execution order sent out the previous day. The Mytilenean representatives in Athens offered a sizable reward to the crew if the ship arrived in time to prevent the executions. Rowing day and night, sleeping in shifts, and eating at their oars, the rowers of the second trireme managed to make up the first ship's one day lead and arrive at Mytilene just as Paches was reading the original order, in time to prevent its execution." - Wikipedia page on Mytilenean revolt, Thucidides account
Wow. That's a relief man
You da real MVP.
Let's upvote this for others to see!
I don't think I ever thought I'd feel relief about something that happened More than 2 millenia ago
Glad they made it.
Thanks for the update!
In case anyone was wondering, the second ship rowed much faster than the first ship whose crew was in no rush to carry out their gruesome task. The second ship managed to catch up with the first ship on the shore of Mytilene, narrowly stopping the massacre with mere minutes to spare.
@Natalia Wojtczak Same. It was really close
The first ship was not being rowed fast because the people on board needed their strength for a massacre. On the other hand, the second ship was rowed as fast as possible as they needed to stop a massacre.
thank you :)
never happaned luke
thanks for your comment. I would be in insomnia if it hadnt been for ya

I'd love the Ted-Ed videos 2,000 years from now, talking about a day in the life of someone today....
"Andy, a student, drank too much the night before, so he slept in today.
Although he was meant to be working on his dissertation, he sat and watched videos about people in Ancient Athens. "
That's literally it.
Well now 2000 years from now
Karen was getting ready to go to the store she had to get there early before all the toilet paper ran out
angelica schuyler she also had to get there before the cashier left so she can scream at the cashier for small problems and get the cashier fired
2000 years from now? Don't think we will last even a 200 years from today with this rate of global warming and pollution.
My favourite comment😍
A day in the life of a typical millenial
I love this narrator, his voice is so calming. If he doesn't already do audiobooks he should! 💛
Science with Katie ted-ed should hire Morgan Freeman
He's a professor at Colgate.

Alternative title: ‘A day in the life of an Athenian, during one of Athens’ most infamous and controversial parliamentary votings of the ancient times.’ Amazing video! Well done!
George Kokkos that is too long for a video title
Saad Awan I know 😆 It was a joke. But I mean it (not as a title of course)
What happened in the end George?
plis tell us more about it George!!! Were there any well known philosophers or historians involved that you know of?
Razing a city to the ground and enslaving its inhabitants was pretty common back then. Heck in fact the great conquerors of the Republic Gaius Julius Caesar, Gnaeus Pompeus Magnus and Marcus Licinus Crasus comited literal genocides of the natives in the areas they conquered.
Awesome video! It'd be really interesting to make this a series, "A day in the life of a ____" and cover all different time periods and cultures.

@Laquelectro dunno
Yes agreed, I love this series. Also loved your new video.
Is that sarcasm or was this vid the first ‘day in the life of’ vid and this comment was just incredibly prescient?
Could you do A Day in the Life of A Venetian in the Renaissance?

I also would like to know whether or not the hermetic society had a profound influence on their society. Considering how astrology seems to improve your skills quite significantly.
It's like paying a lot of money to your friend and ending up signing a bond with an overly ambitious greedy moneylender and almost getting killed before your friend and his girlfriend save you. Nothing special.
What about a life a day of ancient China
That'd be really fascinating! I imagine it'd vary a lot depending on what dynasty you chose.
It’ll also depend on your social standing, and ethnicity. There are many Chinese ethnic groups, although most are of Han ethnicity.

That would be awesome! I always loved seeing the history of China! They should do more videos about countries Like India, China, Korea, Pakistan And also Srilanka and Japan and many more countries in Asia. African Countries included. IT WOULD JUST BE SO AWESOME TO LEARN ABOUT THOSE DIFFERENT CULTURES!

As a Greek student who has been taught about the Peloponnesian war at school an awful amount of times, I find this way of learning about it much more interesting than just reading straight from a book. You focus on the main events of the war and also get to see what everyday life was like back then. I wish classes were more like that, students would be way more interested in the subject
Great video though ~
I hate the Peloponnesian wars. I hate Greeks fighting eachothers.
And you didn't notice the error at 3:17?

It's so fascinating watching these videos because I am Greek(I don't live in Athens though). I feel proud that my country has such a long history, even if nowadays things are not going well for us financially...

I'm Polish and I love Greece. You can be truly proud of your history.
Baekhyun & Seulgi stan lol you're mixed with the Turks.

Actually Greeks were keep their blood "pure" like every single nationality that was under foreign control. Ottoman were the one that stole Greek childrens(and different nationalitist) and raise them as they were their childrens. Also a great deal of Greek ware leaving as Turk because of their religion(and economical interest as well)
Nitish Saxena lol we are not! Due to our different religions there weren't any marriages between Greeks and Turks. Maybe turks are mixed with us because turks used to steal little greek children (usually boys), raised them, making them to believe they were Turkish.
Women in Ancient Athens: Ok so you must learn how to cook, bear the children, run the household....

As a Greek, I've waited a long time about this.

Like the Greeks, my ancestors in Iran were also organized. They innovated and had great culture. Not so sure about now though. Let's not even start with how they are now. Our Greek brothers and sisters are in the same boat with corruption and sell out officials. Here's to a better Greece and Iran. We will all rise again.
Let's hope we will and then we can have a second ''Thermopylea battle'' round.(All my love to Persians)
Maybe just a simple wrestling match will do :)
Yes and a battle rap afterwards !

As a girl who loves history its always so disappointing when ancient cultures are so sexist like that. Like imagine living in such an interesting place and time period only to not even be aloud to leave the house 😭
Thats why is always so interesting to me to see more matriarchal or at least not thaat sexist ancient cultures, like i want to imagine myself at that time😭 ancient minos is my fav
I think the natives were allright? Idk also some of the 1000 of indian civs, just ignore the muslim ones and you will be alright
"A race of democracy against time" gave me shiver
yea that was a good line
Ha ha, that's rather sad that inhabitants of ancient Melos during Peloponesian war hadn't experienced such a 'mercy' from 'Democratic' Athenians, who slaughtered all the island and enslaved the rest even though the Greeks of Melos was pleading for peace and hadn't even revolt against Athens, the 'city-tyrannos' :D
Im in Hong Kong learning about ancient Greece!and on monday its our test
Make KSI fight ADAM SALEH !!! Are you a secondary school student in S1? I remember learning about that too, a few years ago.
It's also worth noting that Athenians treated "slaves" as part of their family meaning also they loved them and had as part of the housework.
England is Ancient Athens
no it is not we athenians are superior
@@lazerpopz9623 please dont take this comparison as a insult, because we all love greece and we all love europe,greece and europe is one and the same with kings,tyrants,parliaments,heroes,mythology,science,plays and dramatic performances.

I agree
I need more day in the life videos! I’m obsessed! I love seeing what a day for an average person on this earth might have been like 1000’s of years ago!
There is an over emphasis on democracy in Athens, while not much is mentioned about the temples and religion of common people.
How come parliament was not set on the Acropolis of Athens then? We all know about the Parthenon.
Please more stories from ancient Greece!

it gives me a weird satisfaction to see these high-quality, educational videos get on trending! i thought informational videos are just not "trending material". this means there is hope for channels like mine as well! 😁
Love this "A day in the life of" series, it's extremely interesting and awesome.
I live in Mytilene and its nice to see that you mentioned us. But there is something wrong here: Mytilenians did not betray their alliance with Athenians. Athenians instead controlled the alliance in a harsh way towards its members, forcing them to pay annually either by giving money or ships. Mytilene and other cities protested trying to leave the alliance but Athenians didnt let them, and ended up violently stopping them as it was mentioned in the video.
Also as someone from Mytilene I agree with you, δεν ηξερα οτι απο το νησι μας υπαρχουν ατομα που βλεπουν τεδ εδ
An0N SaiKo so what happened in the end ? Did the second ship make it to stop the first ?
If a vassal stops paying tribute it is usually considered a revolt or rebellion. I do understand their alliance was an unfair one, but this type of alliance is fairly common throughout history.
laxman khatri unfortunatelly,no.the first ship arrive and gave the order to butcher all the island.Athenians themselves after the massacre didnt even want to mention it.I am greek,I live in athens and according to many historians this was one of the most terrible things in ancient greek history!
It almost as if.. there's two sides to every story
As a Greek, I am fascinated by our history, yet I can't help but think what would our ancestors think of us if they ever saw us what have we become today? A mere shadow of the country that existed before everything, and gave birth to civilizations on the planet. I am proud and ashamed at the same time....
Things in Ancient Greece seem much better than in modern Greece , I wish we still had those meetings
Blade You support slavery?
Animals were sacrificed to Deities (only in religious events) which is more honorable and humane than the way they slaughter animals today.
Yeah they had slaves and they had a meeting about massacring all the men and enslaving the women and children of an island, ancient Greece seems so much better than modern Greece.
We dont have them cause we are too many and imagine SHOWING YOUR VOTE IN GREECE
LoL...yeah, sure you do. Ask Socrates about those meetings. Also the ancient Greeks were conquered for one reason: They never learned how to get along with each other. They literally beat themselves into such a state of weakness that they were easily conquered. They never united. And finally it was too late for them to unite.
See, these are the things that make me proud of being Greek. Not our current doo Dab leaders.
You could start a revolution! and assign philosophers to be your leaders or smth
Faidon M. Lol you guys went down super hard today though isn’t Greek worth like -3.50$

This is so beautiful. This makes me appreciate the freedom that most of us are tasting now with the emergence of social media. Communication is easier but responsibility is greater and should be. I hope we all practice such responsibility well. ☺
Discussing and deciding all together in public space like Agorà is the highest and only true form of democracy, but this will never be possible until people won't be free from working. You simply don't have time to partecipate to public meetings, as well as educating yourself to make true conscious decisions (those made by the people in our democracies are probably not). I wonder if Artificial Intelligence will ever truly free humans from work, giving us the chance to establish a true democracy. What do you think guys?
This is a great video with alot of reasearch and hard work done. The only small thingy that is wrong is the translation from ancient Greek to English. "Τοίς αγορεύσει βούλετε;" means "Who wants to talk?" not "Who wants to address the assembly?". But other than that very small mistake everything other is perfect.
Athens is my favorite Classical civilization.
However during war, The wise individual is quicker to act than the masses.
Pls do greek mythology
In case anyone was wondering, the second ship rowed much faster than the first ship whose crew was in no rush to carry out their gruesome task. The second ship managed to catch up with the first ship on the shore of Mytilene, narrowly stopping the massacre with mere minutes to spare.
0:18 that looks just like the map in assassin's creed odyssey
lol
I love these "A day in the life" videos they're my favorite.!!
I love Ted-Ed’s content on Roman and Greek histories, classics, and myths. The animation and clear narration makes these types of stories accessible to people who would otherwise consider it dry content
The Spartan land army was nothing compared to the Athenian land army. It wasn't the Spartan army alone that invaded Athens. but the entire Peloponisian army.Most often every single peloponisian city would send two thirds of their army for the invantions. While Spartans where better trained than Athenians, their numbers where too tiny to be compared to the Athenian military, while Athenians soldiers/citizens where extremely war expirienced.
2:09 is that “I wont say Im in love” from disneys hercules?
Hmmm
Στην Ελλάδα βρέθηκε το αρχαιότερο αλφάβητο της Ανθρωπότητας!
Στο Δισπηλιό Καστοριάς ανακαλύφθηκε το 1993 μ.Χ. από την Αρχαιολογική ομάδα του Πανεπιστημιακού Καθηγητή Γεωργίου Χουρμουζιάδη Νεολιθικός οικισμός της λίμνης, που είχε γραφή κι αλφάβητο, και μία ξύλινη πινακίδα του 5260 π.Χ. με γράμματα.
Η ξύλινη πινακίδα με την επιγραφή χρονολογήθηκε επακριβώς με τη μέθοδο του άνθρακα-14 στον «Δημόκριτο» στο 5260 π.Χ., δηλαδή στο τέλος της μέσης Νεολιθικής Περιόδου. Πρόκειται για την αρχαιότερη γραφή που έχει βρεθεί παγκοσμίως. Τα γράμματα μπορούν να ενταχθούν στο σύστημα της παλαιοευρωπαϊκής γραφής και μάλιστα στην πρώιμη φάση της. Ανατρέπεται η θεωρία πως οι Έλληνες-όπως μας διδάσκουν- έλαβαν το φως εξ' ανατολάς (από Βαβυλώνιους, Σουμέριους, Φοίνικες, κτλ) όταν δηλαδή, εκείνοι οι Ανατολικοί λαοί εκφράζονταν με ιδεογράμματα. Πολύ προγενέστερα οι Έλληνες έγραφαν με συλλαβές. "Στην Πινακίδα του Δισπηλιού, τα σήματα δεν έχουν ιδεογραφικό χαρακτήρα (με μορφές ανθρώπων, ζώων, του ήλιου κτλ) αλλά παρουσιάζουν προχωρημένο χαρακτήρα αφαίρεσης, άρα είναι προϊόν διανοητικής επεξεργασίας", είπε ο καθηγητής Προϊστορικής Αρχαιολογίας στο ΑΠΘ Χουρμουζιάδης.

After that, what happened?
Jack Jay The second ship made it in time but 1000 rebels were executed and the cities which had rebelled against athens had to pay taxes.
It was actually 30 who were executed
dzonikg No according to documents 1000 were executed
"although this figure is viewed sceptically, and it is believed that due to a misreading by a scribe, the figure was actually closer to 30"
Jack Jay they all died and lived happily ever after

WE NEED MORE OF THESE "DAY IN THE LIFE OF ...", THESE ARE SO INTERESTING AND EDUCATING! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS WITH US TED-ED!!!
Women in ancient Greecd were treated as being worth nothing though. Even being called 'vermin' in some ancient texts. The man in this video would never even have thought to listen to his wife and I'm quite sure she wouldn't have dared open her mouth. Women were practically locked up in the house and weren't allowed to wat much, move much or do much at all. I've read texts in which the writer longed for a world where women would not be necessary for reproduction and we could do away with them. At most they were seen as a drain on resources.
This isn’t daily life whatsoever. This is an outlier situation and you even say that in the video that it’s unprecedented.
If this was literally "a day in the life", then it would be a boring video. The idea is to provide an example of what COULD happen in a typical day... it's supposed to entertaining and educate you a little about their ideologies. I don't want to watch a video where the narrator just says "He woke up. He went to buy bread. He made pottery. He sold pottery. He comes home to his wife. They go to sleep."
It's still a day in the life. Not an average day, but a day nonetheless.
Every day might have been a different drama. In any case, the common daily process was well explained but for a particularly interesting example.
Just stumbled across this playlist today. My god I want more of these!
Please make more videos about the ancient civilizations, especially Greece and Egypt.
I'm Greek and didn't know the execution story! Apparently the basic events are true, although the protagonist a fictional representation of a well-off Athenian. Very nice!
Thanks for the Spanish translations!! I really appreciate it
A dude who paints jars for the living can afford a house and 3 children. Fuaaaa
I really enjoyed it. Greetings from Greece
2:35 yeah but you didn't say that Lesvos revolted because they had been subjected to great taxation by Atheneans. Also not only they were treated like that by Atheneans. So not saying that,
imparts perception that Mytileneans revolted because they didn't want to fight Spartans. Dispite that the rest of the vid was very nice
1:06 TALK TO DA HAND WOMEN

Hello I love your videos and I also love how you teach people.
THIS IS AMAZING! Thank you so much.
I dont think that greek women were well known for stopping wars guys...🤭
Gosh, the way the narrator pronounces greek words is adorable and weird at the same time... I am greek and I can tell his efforts are great!!
As a Mytilenean i feel proud that my ancestors revolted even tho they knew the had no chance
Assassin's Creed Odyssey brought me here. Great game btw!
This is true democracy,at least. They allow the people to throw their vote and changing policy directly instead rely on political parties to do so .

Ted : a day in ancient Greek world
Kasandra : MALAKA
Haha was waiting for someone to say this
I want to like these, but as with the other videos in this series, there is a strong undertone of modern bias. What ancient sources are used to support these characters actions, thoughts, and behaviors? This seems to be historical fiction, presented as real history.
Bot Prophet
Obviously some parts are historical fiction. History doesn’t remember the actions of individual commoners. This random pottery painter would not have been recorded in the annals of history. The wider conflict between Athens and Sparta is historical fact. The rebellion of an Athenian tribute state and the subsequent punishment would probably be accurate.
Well, it's a day in the life. It asks you to imagine what a potential person in history would be thinking or feeling. Obviously we can't know that, but that's the point. It takes facts, and uses them to humanize.
Historians read allot of books on ancient Greece & pieced many things together that are intresting/common or important in that ancient culture. I'm sure someone's life was similiar because all of these things were done. Their just trying to give you a feel of things
