    Hi Curtis! I've been a subscriber to your channel for years, but have never left a comment. This video has to be my favorite so far... Thank you! I would love to take the same adventure as you filmed in this video, but I'm afraid to visit the Middle East right now with all of the turmoil happening right now. Living vicariously through your video.

    Hello Curtis,
    I've been following your videos for a long time now. They are truly inspiring and show how much you love our motherland of Egypt. Your passion also makes me jealous and drives me to learn more about the story of my country. So, I've also been studying the history of Egypt and all the eras we went through to current day.
    Now, I may be a nuclear engineer working in the US, but I was born a farmer in the country fields of Damanhur (the settlement of Hor), son of a farmer's family, son of the first farmers on the planet. I also consider you Egyptian. As you know better than anyone, whoever drinks from the Nile, comes back to the MOTHER OF ALL.

      You of all people should be aware of the fact that the people at Kemet engaged in a high level of intimidation and political propaganda---
      The cultural and trade relationships served BOTH societies very well indeed . . .
      You’re either willfully ignorant OR just the latest manifestation of “Egyptologist” who claim that the ancient people of Kemet were NOT Black Africans.
      I’ve watched several videos of yours
      and I’ve yet to hear you say anything about this matter. In fact recently I heard you say that “WE” are not sure where the ancients come from.
      Those of us who’re intellectually honest know where they came from----
      What’s present day Sudan, Ethiopia and other surrounding places are where the Remtju ni Kemet originated from---
      Hatshepsut said the following “my devine mother Hathor is from Punt.” They called Punt “the land of the gods.”
      Your videos are incredibly well produced with amazing cinematography and your narration style is impeccable.
      However, it’d be a great service if you would delve deeper into the topic of the ancients being Black Africans.
      You’re literally surrounded by tbe facts. They’ve left you and countless others BLATANT clues as to what they looked like. I love seeing the fascinating places you visit but please stop with the willful ignorance.

    This is wonderful Curtis! The music was just excellent, and you get better at this all the time, but the number of ads is really too much! It isn't unwatchable, but only because you do such a great job, but if it were by other videographer and on any other topic, I would call it unwatchable because of so many ads. So please tone it down a bit.
    It's annoying as hell to not even be able to relax and watch for a little while before being blasted by yet another ad. It really is an unbelievable number of them! What an awful shame towreck such a great show with so many of them! But at least most (or maybe all) of them were skippable. I don't mind some ads, but this is ridiculous.
    I really would give anything to have been on this trip with you. That's the only reason I'm tolerating this insane ad fest.
