- Discover the unique conditions that make the Black Sea host to dozens of shipwrecks that date back thousands of years.
--
In 2017, researchers off the Bulgarian coast discovered the oldest intact shipwreck ever found. This ancient Greek vessel was not only nearly 2,500 years old, but was just one of 65 shipwrecks found at the bottom of the Black Sea in remarkable condition. So, why does the Black Sea contain so many well-preserved shipwrecks? Helen Farr and Jon Adams dive into the depths of the unique body of water.
Lesson by Helen Farr and Jon Adams, directed by Yuriy Polyashko, Darvideo Animation Studio.

"When you invent the ship you also invent the shipwreck."
This made my day. Well said 👍
how u doin
Yeah that’s a good one
Two inventions in one!
When people are born, they are meant to die
@@prussianrocket2702 lol ya right
Just imagine to be able to look at a 2,500 years old preserved shipwreck.
Could maybe be one day possible, we would have to invite some sort of chamber to encapsulate it then slowly drain the water out it while at the same time slowly bringing to the surface
I would think that device would be unimaginably heavy
That’d be really cool
500 BC isn’t that ancient. This was an awesome discovery though. I was just reading about this in the most recent national geo history magazine.
Might build a heavy one later 😄. Mr. Franklin has been managing my trade for months and I keep making profit every week. I made "$19,240 last week also
I am always brought nearly to tears when history is allowed by nature to survive and be re-discovered.
Imagine the events and the people that surrounded the ship. The daily troubles, the importance of the ship and the lives of those upon it.
It is not just a wreck but a time-capsule of a bygone age and the people that lived it.
Same ....I get extremely emotional thinking about past humans and when I visit some historic sites or see them in museums. Heck even touching an old coin makes me emotional thinking about it's journey and what led it to be in my hands!!
I’ve never heard anyone explain that before, so thank you. I feel the same. 🥰 I have a shopping addiction, but it’s for antiquities and fossils. I want one of everything. Lol
That's such a fascinating time capsule. Wish you would've shared some actual video or pictures, instead of animation, but I'll do some research of my own. Thanks for sharing!
I know I could look this up on my own but wouldn't know what words to use to really find this specific ship. Think you can lend some of your info you found?
@@reanimator6217 "World’s Oldest Intact Shipwreck Found - 2,400-yr-old ‘Ship of Odysseus’ "
@@countryd0g430 ah thank you so much :)
I agree. Even though it doesn't fit their style of never featuring anything but their own animation, I think that there should be certain exceptions like this.
@@billyfox6368 agreed but still the animation in this video as always were lovely. But they should have shown a few photos just this once
This is impressive considering the Titanic is pretty much on the edge of collapse
Eh that’s two completely different thing, it has nothing to do with the ship and more to do with the water
@@zachsuarez1830 Yeah imagine aaying that all ships ar relatd to titanic
We should make a detailed mesurment of those ship and recreate them on the surface !
You need more than just the dimensions.
You'd need the type of wood, and how it's treated, etc.
@@MrNicoJac True, other shipwrecks like the Uluburun are more thoroughly investigated
"When you invent the ship you also invent the shipwreck."
Anything else would be... Wreckless!
The ships symbolise my social life
😭😭😭
LMAO
its appearance doesn't quite match
@@hacimbbew7298 'symbolise'
Fragile but eternal? Eh sounds good in theory
Soooo, this just told me…ships have graveyards too…interesting
Pirate carribean
How old are you?
@@eavyeavy2864 🤡
Frickin awesome! What a job to have, searching for 2000 year old shipwrecks!
Ted Ed: "Helen Farr"
Dyslexic me: "HELEN PARR?! you are elastigiiirl put yourself together"
I thought HELEN KELLER
Can Bay of Bengal also be "a well preserved pickle jar"? Since it lies in ocean, but has land on 3 different sides and also receives fresh water!!
A well preserved sea pickle jar
I'd imagine it's not nearly so self contained.
No, it's far too large and too open to the ocean.
You are everywhere!
@@oswald7994 no. I am not ray mark!! And if U see me everywhere, then U r also everywhere!! Or we have common interests 😂
I do so love this subject matter! Thank You TE! Sigh, I have often wished that I had access to maps of that time period!
Imagine if they found the original Ship of Theseus under there
How crazy it would be
Impossible, It had all of its components replaced.
@@lowenzahn3976 Underrated comment. Kudos.
Preserved in time. Like time has just stopped there
Love the Narrator
Love the sound design!
I was scared they would show the real ship. Thanks God it's all animated. 😖
I didn't get it. Why would you be scared of 2500 years ship?

Oh, I'm sorry, I understand 😶😥
@@starmoonay1454
Thank you... 😢💝
@@shizukagozen777 You're welcome :) 💗
Wow! These Ted-Ed videos are super-informative! Thank you so much for such great content, Ted-Ed! You're awesome! 😊💗😍🥰
P.S. - Thank you all for all the likes. I've never got as many likes on any comment ever💗.
So agree
Early today. Ted ed is super awesome with each video and definitely never let me down 🥰
Two of my fav content creators uploaded at the same time and I love it
Which ones?
Who's second one?
Oh i get it now
You mean the narrators not the channels
Smarter everyday.
The animation is so beautiful
What about the bodies of the drowned sailors? Or dead fish and other organic things? How do they preserve down there? D:
maybe so? I mean they
\said organic material
Probably eaten by small fishes
@@vitalino1981 Not many fish live at a depth of 2000 meters.
If I had to guess, human bodies might've drifted away as they wouldn't have likely sunk to the bottom (Humans are fairly bouyant)
@@steeledminer616 yes!!! That’s probably it! And even a small amount of salt will increase that bouyancy.
Please post more videos about
-Presocratic philosophers
-Aristotle works (Metaphysics,Four Causes,Potentiality and Actuality,Rhetoric,Politics,)
-Aristotle teaching Alexander The Great
-Tengrism

Nice info (as always) 🔥
this channel really helps me to get BAND 9 IN IELTS SPEAKING TEST
As the expression goes it's just built different ;)
I was about to sleep but this show up.
Beautiful, as always
Wow
This isnt a riddle but atleast im early
hi from indonesia👋🏿👋🏾👋🏽👋🏼👋🏻
any more findings about the ship? what cargo did it had? was it a comercial ship? any writings on board?
That would be an amazing dive!!😍
Thank you ted ed. I am now enlightened.
I've been subscribed in this channel and this is the first video I've watched from this channel. Guess I might become a frequent visitor of this channel!
Anyways, the last sentence gave me goosebumps. Anybody here who feels the sams?
Anatolia is mislabeled as "The Mediterranean" at 1:20
Perfect
History preserved to learn from their mistakes and their bad deeds. These are preserved to make us honest and religious.
Nice video.
Does that mean human bodies could also be found preserved on the ship?
If no, why? They too are organic as wood of the ship.
fishes ate them
Flesh decomposes faster than the treated wood they probably used for ships. That, and fishes probably ate them
Human bodies have bacteria inside that will decompose them.
Really clear lesson - I learned a lot. Thank you.
Preservation is one of the ways to take a trip back to history
Learn something new every day
Gee, thanks for the photos.
You know the video is interesting when there is an underwater ship cemetery involved 🤩
Very informative and interesting story.
I watched even it was not needed.
Love ❣️
Cool
Someone should definatley develop an underwater restoration process and bring it to the surface to be used again! Dont tell me thats impossible
That's extremely unlikely to happen and not cost-effective.
Something like thud has happened in stockholm
that would be silly. Its better to study them carefully and build a replica. Even if those ships could be brought to the surface you would NEVER sail them.
I LOVE TED ED!😁😁😁
Please do a Vietnamese translation, I want to learn from you very much 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Brilliant video. Will be using this in my archaeology History lessons.
What do you mean they couldn't bring it up; bring a jar, put wood in jar, bring the jar up. For bigger pieces, bring a bigger jar.
Thank you.
Gotta dig the knowledge.
1:25 Wait... My brain is reversing your animation.
Okay so why is TedEd not verified yet?
the real question,i wanted to know the answer in my life!!
I enjoyed this video. The graphics and voice over was just perfect.
Yes strategos! Ships ready!
It's been 9 years ago when this channel was made and I only have one question
When will Ted show up in a video
Awesome facts!
I love this Ted Ed video.
Interesting video
What are brown dwarfs?
Can you make a video about brown dwarfs?
Indians?
wow. so cool
I was literally just reading about this on a magazine (GEO) last night, wtf
Pickle jar lol
so if i tell my family to put my corpse there... will it start an urban legend?
2021 Oct 26
Which programs do you guys use for animation??
_meromictic_
Thats new insight for me personally
Spoopy
Its been so long since the last great ted talk, were lucky to have ted ed
Trippy
Let us see!
Next, video on warp drive, please.
49 minutes ago
actually 44-45 minutes ago
If the ship is greek, why is there an 'eye of horus' symbol on the boat in the animation? Its an egyptian symbol
The ancient Greeks painted eyes like the one shown here on the front of their boats.
It's not the eye of horus, the greeks painted eyes on the front of the vessels as a form of protection against danger, you could say they shared the same function but they are not the same thing
On modern day traditional boats across the Mediterranean, one could still see the eye of horus. Back then, long before Egypt was conquered by Greece in 332 BC,eyes were painted on Roman and Greek boats as a sort of protection for their boat and for the owner and Crew from bad spirits. In other words, the eye was used as luck from the Gods.
Ok I understand, thanks 😊
@@ndrk993 Welcome 😊
The ship is so beautiful, The only problem is nobody could see it in this video. A story book video. Regards.
The map showing blue land and white seas makes my head hurt.
Would there be intact skeletons also possible there too?
This is so Cool ted ed keep it this Amazing Content I believe this reck probably time travels
2:42 Why am I not surprised by this allegory
They also could've used "time bubble"
💭I just love it when I get the notification that says "Someone has liked your comment" or "Someone has subscribed!"&
Schade das kein Originalaufnahmen von dem Wrack gezeigt wurde. Die hätte mich sehr interessiert. Vielleicht gibt es in der Zukunft Möglichkeiten diese zerbrechlichen Schiffe zu bergen.
hi
Very nice video 👌
cool 😎
Isn't it pointless to say something like "look how well preserved this shipwreck is" and not show us a picture of it but rather a cartoon...?
I was thinking the same thing. Unless the footage is copy written?
Hey ted Ed I have a suggestion for a video.You should do a vide about hg wells (creator of war of the worlds) he has a very interesting story
Random speedrunner: oh iron nice.
*a few moments later*
Man that ship gave me nothing, I need to eat rotten flesh.
Survived brilliantly for 2500 years, till we came along and broke it 😅
Hey TEDEd, someone posted this on tiktok in multiple parts
but where is the footage?? Why is this animated??
TED is now starting Halloween content YIPEEEE!!!! Bring on the spooks!!!!
2:04
Can you make a video about time on Earth please.
Wait, if the ships get pickled, what happens to the crew? Are there well preserved corpses as old as Aristotle down there?
Question: why playing games on your computer lag?
