- The Bronze Age in southern Scandinavia surpasses most of bronze age europe. It is the richest period of finds, crafts, creativity and artistic expression. Only in Mycenaean Greece there is an equivalent in findings.
In Scandinavia it developed over 1000 years the prime Bronze Age craftsmanship and crafts in Europe. Large quantities of buried amber treasures has been found from Bronze Age Scandinavia.
Amber was also a very important commodity in countries around the mediterranean sea.
Tutankhamun was buried with an amber held over his heart.
Amber was seen as magical during the Bronze Age and was used for jewelry.
In the richest graves of Mycenae in Greece, it has been found large collars of amber.
Modern analysis shows that those amber comes from the Baltic Sea.
The Nordic bronze age fits also the Greeks description of their contact with the Hyperboreans in the far north.
Amber seems ta have been the Nordic gold during the Bronze Age.
Svenska:
Bronsåldern i södra skandinavien överträffar det mesta i europa.
Det är den rikaste perioden på fynd, konsthantverk, kreativitet och konstnärliga uttryck.
Endast i Mykene och Grekland finner man nått motsvarande.
I skandinavien utvecklas i ca 1000 år det främsta bronsåldershantverket och konsthantverket i Europa.
Stora mängder nedgrävda bärnstens skatter har hittats i bronsålderns skandinavien.
Bärnsten var också en mycket viktig handelsvara i rikena runt medelhavet.
Den nordiska bronsåldern passar perfekt in i Grekernas beskrivningen av Hyperboréerna som levde långt upp i norr.
Tutankhamon blev begravd med en bärnsten över hjärtat.
Bärnstenen ansågs magisk under Bronsåldern och användes till smycken.
I de rikaste gravarna i Grekland Mykene finner man stora halskragar av bärnsten.
Moderna analyser visar att bärnstenen kommer ifrån Östersjön.
Bärnstenen framstår som Nordens guld under Bronsåldern.

When they put the rock art into relief and I saw a pontoon boat like polynesians use I was taken back. I never looked at that painting in that way before. Thank you Gare
Stand up Europe,be recognized!!
There seems to be a great interest in Nordic heritage now. I did not know it was this ancient and this accomplished. They were my ancestors and I thank you.
Clever Roberts: Well not many Norse people know about this fantastic age at all. And infact not many other people know about it either.
People arent taught about this age and the objects found from this era in schools.
An amazing video, very well put together. Thank you for giving me a look into the ancient past of this beautiful culture...Greetings from Ireland
När man lyssnar på Wardruna känner man sig vid liv. tack för dom fina bilderna! :-)
I have Nordic roots I'm treated with racism, cause I am proud of who I am. Everyone should be proud of there people to.
you are totally right with being racist. your blood... there is something inside your veins.. the power.. the power of the north, the spirit of the north..
Swear to Odin! How can that be forbidden?
unless your people were ran around in animal skins raping and plundering. Being a savage isn't something to be proud of.
Be proud of it. I am a racist and im proud ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻
We are our own people fuck the losers who try and paint you with neo liberal phrases and words they are gutless sheep stand tall as the blood that flows through your veins in not yours but that of those who came before you. Hail Odin and be safe.
Fin video, underbart val av musik. Wardruna gör magisk musik.
Skål!
RGsweden: Man tackar, ja Wardruna gör verkligen magisk musik :-)
Skål
I have some Scandinavian ancestry, it's just 11% but I'm very happy and proud of it. I've loved the Scandinavian languages and cultures since I was thirteen (the Nordic Bronze Age and the Viking Age are my favourite parts), and I've even eaten some Danish and Swedish foods without leaving America (the pickled herring, frikadeller, prinsesstårta, and köttbullar are my biggest favourites), though I still have yet to eat blood sausage and the other classics. I love bands and musicians from the Nordic countries too. I love this video and the song (im a fan of Wardruna), it's so beautiful. I especially love the rock carvings.
Cool.

Excellent and awesome!
Vened Warlock: Thanks friend.
Cheers from Sweden
Fantastic video to a great Wardruna song, thank you for sharing!
Thanks for sharing this, great information, inspiring visuals, and awesome music. Good Job! Your time was well spent.
Would be interesting to know what language was spoken by the Nordic Bronze age Culture people
Proto Germanic is believed by some to have evolved as a mix of several Proto-Indo-European dialects (proto Balto-Slavic and Proto-Italic-Celtic perhaps) plus an older non Indo-European language that was spoken in Scandinavia since prehistoric times, maybe with some relation to Finno-Ugric languages
Germanic languages have an unusual amount of words which are not shared with other Indo-European languages
Interesting video !
Great piece of work! Like it a lot.
Etienne du CM: Thanks that you liked the video :-)

William Cooke: Thanks man :-)
Cheers from Sweden
Nice Video!!!
Ron Snyder: Thanks man :-)
Cheers from Sweden
Bronze is nice... i just ordered two blades and three arrowheads
Wow!!!
Funny the Phoenicians traded the same way too. dots on the beach with boats in alignment depicts the trading in the rock art,the dots in a line are goods layed out for trade.
Brilliant work! Thank you so very much for sharing this amazing educational video! I would like to share this with the Haplogroup I1 Y-DNA Genetic study group who shares this Ancient Nordic Bronze Age Heritage. Thank you again!
David Akin: Thanks that you liked the video.
The Nordic Bronze Age are for sure a really interesting age.
Cheers from Sweden
Brrah!
Despite excavations have been forbidden in Gotaland after the kings were placed in Stockholm Gotaland have far more precious findings due to private finds. Excavations forbidden!!!!! Due to animosity between svear and geats. Angry ANGRY!!!! Gotaland is the holy land in northern Europe. They helped the anglians against the saxons, see Sutton Hoo = gota dialect meaning seventeen mounds. I have been crying at Beowulfs grave mound on the top of wonderful Hafsten the whale mountain. The ground for his house with the entry stones is 30 m from my house. The retired Beowulfs house was burned by Grendels father. The Grendels were real domesticated pteranodons fitted with commanding equipment.
I know that because I know who took them here and constructed the chamber and sluice and the place for it. They are here now and a plesiosaur was seen here and seals on the Raevsness where I have found the chamber with metal rods. A really magical beautiful place!
Ships often pulled up on shore,laye trade goods out on beach to do business,natives would leave equivalent worth to object taken,when all were happy with deal,the ships left,they would return by stone sun dial date next season.central trading commerce was earlier than thought,earlier than Phoenician traders.
I hope I descend from these people.
If you have Germanic ancestry, then you do. We were all the same folk in that time.
From where is the footage?
What you said in description is completely uncorrect. You completely forgot the Nuragic civilization in Sardinia and the massive fortresses (Nuraghes), 3 meters statues (Monte Prama giants) and the incredible bronze artefacts this civilization did. They were also part of those western "people of the sea" that induced great empires in the Orient and the same Mycenean kingdoms to the fall. I suggest you to inform you well regard this subject.
Octavianus Augustus: Well its not uncorrect since the objects in bronze production was the most advanced in both Scandinavia and Mycenaen Greek. And they had for sure contact also. I have watched the Nuragic objects and they seems to be the same culture as here in the north during the bronze age since their horned warrior cult small statues looks the same as ours here. You have also the same earlier Dolmen culture up here as down there in Sardinia.
Yes now I got what you mean. About the nuragic culture and the similitudes with the northern cultures of same period you're right and there are various studies regarding the hypothesis of a megalithic koinè in various parts of Europe which main traits remained preserved in the most isolated regions. Another element regards the ships: the nuragic ones had an animal figurehead in the bow just as in other northern cultures and this is a unique in the mediterranean area. Last but not least are the genetic studies concerning the genetics of sardinian people, actually one of the oldest in the planet due to the isolation in the millenia. The main aplogroups present in our genetics are related to archaic samples of the danubian area like the "I" one, and this map is quite explicative: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/96/Distribution_Haplogroup_I_Y-DNA.svg/1200px-Distribution_Haplogroup_I_Y-DNA.svg.png
Octavianus Augustus: Well I want to add that the same ship types can be seen on Mycenaen Greek vases plus amber from the baltic sea has been found in the Greek elites graves from this time period so the Greeks had for sure contact with the Northmen.
Plus I also want to add that the Dannish DNA scientist Eske Willerslev for some year ago stated that the first europeans that arrived to europe around 40 000 years ago are identical to north europeans. And it has not been any big migrations to europe at all. Instead it has lived big meta populations of these early europeans all over europe and middle east plus far in to Asia. And that could explain why the Tocharian mummies in China are blond and redhaired.
Greetings

What documentary is the footage from?
Those warpainted (bit like the Picts and Britons) warriors look badass
Good question.
Their dressing style and phenotype looks nordic.
again I am wondering how far behind they were compared to continental Bronze Age. NBA ended around 500bC, thats the end of Hallstatt period and beginning of Le Tene.
The Bronze Age in southern Scandinavia surpasses most of bronze age europe. It is the richest period of finds, crafts, creativity and artistic expression. Only in Mycenaean Greece there is an equivalent in findings.
In Scandinavia it developed over 1000 years the prime Bronze Age craftsmanship and crafts in Europe. Large quantities of buried amber treasures has been found from Bronze Age Scandinavia.
@@BirkaViking nevertheless they were 500 years behind central europe and even more behind mediterranean area. and they were not able to catch up till end of Viking period.
dasgellendehorn: Not correct at all. And its only for you to look at the objects that speak for it self.
@@BirkaViking just to give you a little hint: Rock art (engraving) there are a couple of hundreds in Scandinavia. In Val Camonica alone there are more then 200'000.
dasgellendehorn: In scandinavia it exist massive amount of petroglyphs. And when it comes to the quality and creativity and artistic expression it was in Scandinavia and in the Mycenaean Greece the Bronze age was during a time period over 1000 years the leading in europe. Note also that all Mycenean Greek leaders are described as blond :-)

Yotube delete this video it is so draumatic for many people in high school
?
Anglo Saxon are Nordic? Weird
Yes they come from Germany and Denmark
because of all the hate of my Nordic culture and people. it has forced me to become a racist
you're not the only one. I don't think anyone's better than anyone else, but from all the shit people say about my people I've come to only care for my own
Funny enough, the Nordics are like second least hated Germanic group.
Mostly because they're pagan most of their history and currently the most liberal or progressive group in Europe.
The first least hated Germanic group would probably be the Franks, mostly because they simply bypass all the hate by becoming French.
