    Considering the average lifespan of an average Egyptian back then was around 25 years, during the long reign of Rameses , generations of citizens were born, lived and died not knowing any pharaoh other than Rameses which would have gone some way in building the legend about his immortality.

    I'm more of a Thutmose III kind of guy, personally. Ramses II was a great Pharaoh but he lived too long. His greatest deeds occurred early in his reign, after which he had what I call a midlife crisis and by the end, when his 13th son FINALLY succeeded him he was an old man too. The empire was stagnant and weakened. Then the Bronze Age Collapse happened.

    Somalia - Continuing Puntite Traditions
    In Hatshepsut’s temple, an expedition shows Punt Land located in present day Somalia. The ancient Somali name for their region was "Bunn", a name referenced in texts related to trade with the pharaohs as "Pwenet" or "Pwene", and the region is known as "Bunni" today. The culture of Punt Land bears several resemblances to that of the ancient Egyptians, such as language, ceremonial dress, and the arts

    Proto-Somalis were the ancient people and ancestors of Somalis who lived in present-day Somalia.[1] Literature on proto-Somalis largely uses a time-frame pertaining to the 1st millennium BC and 1st millennium AD.[2]
    History
    The Puntites were ancient Cushites who are believed to have traded myrrh, spices, gold, ebony, short-horned cattle, ivory, and frankincense with neighbouring Ancient Egypt and with ancient Mesopotamia through their commercial ports. An Ancient Egyptian expedition sent to Punt by the 18th dynasty Queen Hatshepsut is recorded on the temple reliefs at Deir el-Bahari, during the reign of the Puntite King Parahu and Queen Ati.[3]

    This interview scratches the surface of various interesting themes then leaves them unexplained, such as the last one about Ramases II's tomb not being finished and continually expanded while his son builds his own, and describing the Battle of Kadesh as happening in 'the Levant', (then lots of blather blather), rather than just saying 'Western Syria'. Alastair Sooke's series on Egyptian art is far more informative, particularly at the beginning where he steps out a timeline of Egyptian kingdoms in the desert and extends the line up to the present day, to give the viewer as sense of perspective. Indispensible. And yes Dan, you've got go to Abu Simbel, it's amazing.

    I read a theory that Rameses (of the appropriate period)and Moses were one and the same person. The theory goes that the name was actually Ra-Moses or Ramose meaning born of Ra, hence the reason a "lowly Jewish baby" could grow up to be so powerful in the Egyptian court. The suggestion being that he was always an Egyptian prince who became a monotheist.

  • @FrshJurassicPrnceYA
    @FrshJurassicPrnceYA 22 дні тому

    Just to clarify some things in this video:
    1. The Land Of Punt was definitely a real place and a source of raw goods that the Puntites traded with the Egyptians. There are archeological evidence of Hatshepsut’s voyage to Punt and she even references the Land of Punt as where her mother was from.
    2. The battle of Kadesh is a tricky one as it definitely DID happen, but historians are split between who actually one. The ancient Egyptians to my knowledge did not lose any territory in the Middle East, nor did the Hittites. So a stalemate seems more likely.
    3. The Exodus story has already been proven to be a myth based on actual historical events. One possible inspiration could be the expulsion of the Hyksos out of Egypt by Ahmose the 1st. The idea that Ramses ii was the “pharaoh” mentioned in Moses’ Exodus story is not historically possible. Ramses the great lived a long prosperous life and his mummy wasn’t found at the bottom of the Red Sea, lol.
    4. Many ancient Egyptian busts and statues ARE realistic portrayals of their subjects. There were generic depictions of course, but much like in the modern world the ancient Khemites would’ve put a lot of effort into generate believable art. Modern artists and engineers are still amazed at how detail Egyptian art is to the point of even entertaining the idea that they used unknown advanced technology. The unique features and imperfections on one’s face were beautifully captured by Khemetic artists when creating portraits. Many statues, like the famous queen Tiye bust, have a life-like poise to them.
    5. This is just my opinion, but I think Amenhotep iii was a more interesting king than Ramses ii. Rameses is definitely cool in his own way, but Amenhotep iii is really underrated and accomplished a lot artistically. Like the guy in the video said, Ramses ii patterned his artistic sensibilities after Amenhotep iii who ushered in a golden age of Egyptian art. And I do agree that Hatshepsut was a great ruler too and she deserves way more attention. Especially when compared to cleopatra.
    I wrote this comment to address certain points made in this video that weren’t necessarily accurate. But both the presenter and his guest are very knowledgeable about ancient Egypt and I learned some new things here (like a mummy ghost story was actually an ancient and not a modern concept 😅).

      'Many statues, like the famous queen Tiye bust, have a life-like poise to them' - You are talking about this small darkened bust that had nothing to do with how Tiye actually like? Yeha... gerat argument.
      'Ramses the great lived a long prosperous life and his mummy wasn’t found at the bottom of the Red Sea, lol. ' - I agree with your overall ocnclusions about Exodus, BUT Exodus nowhere states that Pharaoh drowned. It was his army that lost lives - Pharaoh survived.

      1. Queen Tiye's bust was not darkened, but painted dark. You can see paint strokes on the surface of the bust. Come on now!

      3. Only a euronut would get offend by the term "Khemet." Khemet comes from the ancient Egyptian word for their land, KMT. Vocalized, this word would more likely be pronounced K-E-M-E-T or K-H-A-M-I-T. Pick your poison, but why get butt hurt over the ACTUAL name for Egypt? 🤔

    In Africa, E-M215 is distributed in highest frequencies in the Horn of Africa and North Africa, specifically in the countries Somalia and Morocco, whence it has in recent millennia expanded as far south as South Africa, and northwards into Western Asia and Europe (especially the Mediterranean and the Balkans).[10][11][12][13] E-M281 has been found in Ethiopia.[11]
    Almost all E-M215 men are also in E-M35. In 2004, M215 was found to be older than M35 when individuals were found who have the M215 mutation, but do not have M35 mutation.[10] In 2013, Di Cristofaro et al. (2013) found one individual in Khorasan, North-East Iran to be positive for M215 but negative for M35.[14]

    The intertangled Joseph, Isaelite migration, and Hyksos invasion, and Exodus stories are as baffling as they are intriguing. Might be a good topic for another show.
    Wonder if in similar fashion to the later and better documented Pelaset/Phillistine/Sea People resettlement in Palestine story, if the earlier Joseph story ties in with the Iraelites having similar client state status with tribute, service and/or military obligations to secure Egypt's northern border region. How Exodus and the Hyksos fit in.....?

      @@pendragonsxskywalkers9518 Merneptah (son of Ramses II) is depicted as Darkskinned..almost as dark as Wesley snipes.. And its funny you talk about Greece, because a lot of ancient greek historians say that they were black communities in Greece. The Pelasgians were said to be black, and that they looked like the Egyptians/Lybians. And this again, matches with the mythological stories of the Danaids.. A group of people that fled to Greece from Egypt/Libya.
      DNA seems to confirm it because HLA Studies on modern Greek people cluster with modern black african populations (The only eurasian group).
      According to one of those studies, an admixture occured between Greeks and BLACKS 5,000 years ago.
      It is also said, that Greeks specific genes, have been found in "subsaharan" Africa (West Africa , Central Africa, East Africa)
      Not only that, but my parent carry the hemoglobin O-Arab also called Hb Egypt.
      First studies about it, believed that this genetic mutation appeared during Predynastic Egypt and was associated with a black ancestry.
      Latest studies, however, indicates and confirms that the mutation appeared in the Pomak community of Northern Greece and emerged 2,000 years ago. One of those studies also confirm that the Pomaks have specific black african genes and raised the idea of a black African ancestry
      Furthemore, that HB o-arab mutated in inner Africa into HBo TIBESTI.
      HBO Tibesti is a cross mutation between HBO arab (Greek) and HB Hamilton (Sardinian).
      Werent the SEA people of Ancient Egyptians believed to be Sardinian?
      And finally, a lot of men in the Balkan carry the EV13 haplogroup which is a subclade from the african EM78... EV13 first carriers had to be black!
      All of this prove that the Egyptians were black!

      @@egyptwasblack2 You clearly missed what I wrote about dark skin being symbolic colour of men... It is still reddish-brown skin that many non Black individuals in world can have. Anyway, let's assume Merenptah was Black. Merenptah wasn't his father. Ramesses could be light-skinned man and have his son by dark skinned partner.
      ' ancient greek historians say that they were Black communities in Greece. ' - No historians said such thing. You simply misquote them. Dark skinned doesn't mean Black African. Black Africans aren't the only dark people in the world. Period. Pelasgianss was indigenous people of Greece, that were conquered by Achai and Dores. They were indigenous Europeans. 'that they looked like the Egyptians/Lybians' - Neither Egyptians nor Libyans were Black.
      'And this again, matches with the mythological stories of the Danaids.' - Please, read mythology. Danaus wasn't Egyptian. Looked at his family tree. Danaus was Greek was born in Egypt and later returned to Greece with his daughters. Claiming they were Africans is misunderstanidng the myth.

    Let's touch on who the Pharaoh of the Exodus was. It wasn't Ramses (1279-1213 BC). The Bible establishes that Solomon completed the Temple in 957 BC. 1 Kings 6:1 says "In the four hundred and eightieth year after the Israelites went forth from the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv (the second month), he began to build the house of the Lord." The building of the Temple took about 7 years. So, adding 487 to 957 we get that the Israelites left Egypt in about 1444 BC. This gets us back to about the time of Thutmose III (1479-1425 BC). His successor was Amenhotep II. Thutmose's first son was Amenemhat who predeceased Thutmose. Remember the final plague on Egypt - the deaths of all the first born.
