Opening The Coffin Of Queen Elizabeth I - The Last Tudor Queen
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 гру 2023
- One of the most iconic yet greatest Queens ever to rule over England was the final Tudor monarch Queen Elizabeth I. She during her decades in power oversaw a huge time of change in which there was a huge boom in culture. Writers such as Shakespeare were making a name for themselves, and Elizabeth would also manage to see off a number of threats to her throne. A lot of people across England did not want the Protestant Elizabeth as their Queen, and they preferred to turn to Mary Queen of Scots, the Catholic former Queen of Scotland to rule. Because of this Mary was embroiled in a number of plots against the life of Elizabeth, and the Tudor Queen dealt with this once and for all by ordering her execution, as Mary Queen of Scots’ head was taken clean off by axe. But she also defeated the Spanish Armada, the most feared and notorious fleet and army of the time, but Elizabeth was a Queen greatly beloved by her people, and many could not imagine a world in which she did not rule over them. But as the year 1603 came, Elizabeth I was not as glorious as she once was, and she was a woman who was giving up on her life and she was coming to terms with her own demise and death. However she would be buried in a huge tomb eventually, but this was broken into and what those who did this found was shocking, strange and incredible.
Mary Queen of Scotts head was not "taken clean off"... It was partially severed with the first blow. Several blows of the ax were required to complete the task. She suffered, so the serenity of her death mask is always surprising to me.
The coffin was never opened after her dead. Even when she was moved from her grandfather tomb to her own tomb, neither her coffin nor her sister’s were open. And both are remained sealed as they were when they died.
In 1606, King James I had her remains moved to a tomb in the Lady Chapel which she shares with her half-sister, Mary I. As far as I know, her tomb has not been opened since then and it is not known what her body was dressed in.
A far more appropriate title would be "Opening The _Burial Vault_ Of Queen Elizabeth I...to use the word "Coffin" is a bit click baitey. It implies the victorian era explorers saw her body. Regardless, i enjoyed the video.
The coffin was NOT opened, misleading much?
Opening "the vault" of Elizabeth I would likely be a more apt title.
They have done this misleading title with many of their videos
Thanks misleading then I’m not going to watch!!
Thanks saves me watching
Most 😢certainly.
Henry VIII got his just deserts. His faithlessness and lust got him a woman who was his heir who died childless.
I hope you and your lovely voice have the best Christmas ever and a big Thank You for all your hard work over this past year i've loved every minute of your content! keep up the great work Lass and looking forward to more next year!
I was going to say... what they bloody hell are they doing opening her coffin!
Amen. I was hoping it was a metaphor.
How awful they didn't respect what she wanted with her body. 😔
Thank you for the nice video!!! Very informative
Today I learned about the disembowelment after death of the royalty! Thank you you, well done and informative. A day I learn something, is a good day. 🌞
Narrator: Mary! Queen of scots head was taken clean off
Mary Queen Of Scots: 😢
I read that it took two strokes of the axe to separate her head from he body. The first stroke hit the back of her head and not her neck.
She asked that it would be a quick death. She didn't really want to execute her. 😢
A Great Queen…never married…lived a long life…England sure had strange burial rituals…Elizabeth should have been given more respect…cultures sure can be strange.
Elisabeth is resting with her sister Mary Tudor not Mary Queen of Scotts 9:57. You misspoke.
Could you please do a video about the reign of Queen Mary I because I find that we dont know much about her reign.
So they opened her tomb, not her coffin. Clickbait.
RIGHT TOMB NOT COFFIN
Unprofessional reporting
How come i hear this story about Elizabeth everytime that she defeated the Spanish Armada. But was the Spanish Armada destroyed by a storm that they could not land in Engeland?
There are a few of these " opening the coffin" videos. Click bait titles.
There were no photos of inside the barrial area.. the Abby .. nothing
So, then, the burial vault, not the coffin, of Elizabeth I was opened.
PLEASE DON’T DELIBERATELY MISLEAD YOUR AUDIENCE WITH YOUR TITLE.
Elizabeth and Mary were my 1st cousins 17 x removed, Mary Queen of Scots 1st cousin 16 x removed.
Your reporting was explosive!
She had Mary Queen of Scots imprisoned and beheaded. Her cousin. I find that horrible
well her cousin was supporting a rebellion that would result in elizabeth's death so its somewhat understandable lol
Mary plotted to have Elizabeth killed. Thou shall not murder or kill.
Whatever happened to common decency rest in peace means just that rest in peace ….
stay out of coffins …what’s the matter with you people….!
I bloomin well hope not opened why do we have to interfere with the dead well leave her be!
Someone in the Tudor background had "NAPPY" hair!
Queen Elizabeth I's hair is EXTREMELY Afro-curly.
Is anything known about where this micro curly hair originated from?
❤
Another click bait…
Clickbait.
The ironic part and the want of power. they were related
Excellent video about Elizabeth I. Not subscribing though, due to your deceptive clickbait.
Gave a down thumb for the click baiting title
Opening the vault - not the coffin.
Very misleading..
This is so wrong on so many levels. I truly hope not. Many years to come, would they like there finally resting place poked at ? I think not...
It would be nice if the original English paintings and other art would not be edited, recolored, and altered, for whatever reason. I know of NO OTHER nation doing this; these persons sat for hours for these, and to remake them is mockery, a spat on their graves.
Currently the cousinship result to Queen Elizabeth I is a 2nd cousin after a Baynton perhaps had been de-linked to his mother altered paths. Howards were still above 15 degrees shown. So I figured when Henry VIII stopped showing as spouse of a 12 Great Aunt Howard, that his name may show up again. It did. Now one of the cousins, Boleyn, shows up as 1st cousin x13 removed I think it was. So, Howard is same result but default to Henry is Boleyn currently and I had to go back to Howard to get database to show Howard without Henry as spouse due to program coding. Lol. It's fun to see the results but maybe by next year genealogy will be altered again as royal lines and my Cherokee tend to have people make edits. Only Queen Elizabeth II line may not change her results since I am an Ashe descendant I found out. Too close to really be altered that result or way. Ha. Take that with a grain of salt. Millions descended from same people is math wise interesting.
She was the greatest queen to ever rule England not one of the greatest. No other English queen even comes close to her
I feel Elizabeth II was also one of the greatest queens of the british realm.
@@ashleyfoster7954 from my understanding the following are the queens that Britain has ever had if you exclude empress Matilda and Lady Jane Grey:
1. Mary 1
2. Elizabeth 1
3. Mary 2
4. Anne
5. Victoria
6. Elizabeth 2
Mary 1 and Elizabeth 1 made had to go above and beyond to prove themselves as Britain had never had a successful female monarch before. They were also the only absolute monarchs. Elizabeth 1 ushered the golden age, and we still read Shakespeare to this date. Both Mary 1 and Elizabeth 1 sent explorers to the New World and lay the framework for American colonization. Elizabeth 1 also started the work for what would later become the East India Company. Elizabeth 1 fought and won against the Spanish Armada.
How does Elizabeth 2 even compare??? The whole empire crumbled during her reign. I don’t even know if any writers that have existed during her time and I have lived at her time. Some people lay the parallel with WW2 and Spanish armada which is absurd. Elizabeth 2 was a princess during this time. Her dad was the king. Neither was an absolute monarch. Elizabeth 2 was just an average woman in my opinion. There is no comparison between her and the legendary Liz 1 who ushered in the golden age.
@@msher33 you are certainly entitled to your opinion.
@@ashleyfoster7954 I pointed out facts to support it. Mary 1 and Elizabeth 1 lay the foundations for a poor country to become a global empire. During Elizabeth 2’s reign the whole empire fell apart.
@@ashleyfoster7954 comparing the two queens is also comparing apples to oranges. One was an absolute monarch and one the first queens to ever rule England. The other a constitutional monarch who ruled after queens had proven themselves as competent rulers.
There were so many rumors that she was a man during the rule that why wouldn't they open the coffin and examine her bones
Dang! I heard a conspiracy theory about Q.E. I died in her teens and was replaced with a male lookalike. I wanted to know if it was true. Shame on you for tricking us.
So her tomb wasn’t opened, more click bait.
