I've compiled a reading list of my favourite history books via the Amazon influencer program. If you do choose to purchase any of these incredible sources of information then Amazon will send me a tiny fraction of the earnings (as long as you do it through the link) (this means more and better content in the future) I'll keep adding to and updating the list as time goes on:-

I try to use copyright free images at all times. However if I have used any of your artwork or maps then please don't hesitate to contact me and I’ll be more than happy to give the appropriate credit.
Alright then guys. Months of effort on this one. Nearly broke me. Glad to have it finally out there. Who do you think the Sea Peoples were? Let me know what you think in the comments! Don't forget to like, subscribe, comment etc and why not share with a like minded friend. Where would you like to see me go and film next once it's a bit easier to travel? Thanks for watching and see you next time
Thanks for your work!
I have bounced numerous speculative theories around as to who the "sea peoples" were, including labeling them as proto-Mycenaeans. The Bronze Age collapse is one of the most interesting, esoteric parts of human history. Very much looking forward to this!
Crab people.
Atlanteans
Your content is awesome! Incredible work! Thank you!
Anyone else end up here when you let autoplay go while sleeping? The algorithm really wants us all to know who these folks were lol
Happening right now 😂😂
Being there
Right
Oh snap!!!! I swear to god I just woke up to this lol crazy 😝

Dude,
I'm a 61year old Disabledd woman in R rural Pennsylvania and my funds are extremely limited. I write this because I sure would've liked to have helped you continue sharing your knowledge.
Being disabled I cannot get out and certainly not to any of the places you've taken me.
I'd like to thank you ever so much for all the many enjoyable hours I've spent learning from you and visiting so many exotic places at your side seemingly. Seriously, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!!!
:
It is great that your mind is able. You are able to watch. Close your eyes and travel back in time to learn anything in human history.
You accomplished plenty in your life and will continue to do so, learning about these cultures is an accomplishment in of itself. Thank you for taking the time to share your opinion with us and the rest of the History Time community. I am a 22 year old college student. You'll never know what type of person will be interested in what, I'm honored to be able to share this interest with you. God Bless.
So beautiful!
@@TigerLily61811 Not that strange. I'm 62 and call people "dude". We're from the era when people described each other as "cats" (1960s, back when people were strange, although no stranger than they are now.)
@@TigerLily61811 I don't think she was chastising you or anything - tone and body language are all lost when using written text to communicate :)
The nostalgia of late night shows on the History Channel when I was a child that this gave me was insane. Well done sir.
This episode is one of my favorite things ever made by any person in any context. I'm a sociology professor and you've inspired me to study the political economy of the late bronze age as a long term project. Thank you.
I love him, too!
This video is a must in any respectable academic institution.
That is why we don't cure cancer.
I’m not anyone with any credit in the field, but have watched days upon days of historical videos and this is easily the best one
it is incredibly interesting! I am really getting pulled into learning more
This man could single handedly revive the History channel
We need it.
What? You don’t like Ancient Aliens? Or the lip service to both World Wars?
They should rename it to the Cryptozoology channel.
*"Memory Hole Channel"
I know, right? He didn't even mention aliens a single time either.
I'm a professional archivist and historian, originally specialized in the Ancient Near East. You managed to tell the story using solid, established scholarship while also bringing in some of the newer stuff as well without falling off the horse on either side. That is very difficult indeed and it is quite an achievement. This would get the highest marks in any MA program in the US. Very well done.
@Troy Kell oof. Wrong channel mate...
I agree, ignore the idiot's commenting.
@@wilddesigns857 It's funny how bigots unwittingly expose themselves in the YT comment section. You are worse than the homophobe who replied "Gay!". Instead of asking "what's wrong with being gay?" or simply "So what?" You take the view that it's a disgusting comment because being gay is disgusting. Of course you don't even know you're a fucking bigot & imo, that is the worst kind of bigot because at least the homophobe has the balls to be an unabashed bigot, he knows he is no good. You on the other hand think you are better when in fact you are the same: hateful bigots!
@@blackriders3509 @Black Riders You're a hypocrite. Your comment is ignorant, yet you think it's insightful. You're assuming @Troy Kell is a homophobe. You're the actual bigot here. You're the type of person who believes you couldn't possibly be homophobic or a bigot, because you're gay. Lol. Now THAT'S actually the worst type of bigot there is.
Troll is the future. Learn
I’m so glad I woke up in the middle of the night to discover this channel a few weeks ago. This is by far the best history channel on YT and among the best historical documentaries I’ve ever seen.
I totally agree, the effort is amazing.
@@LeoTheII always come back to this guy’s videos and seemingly learn something new every time. Nothing but respect for creators who use this platform to make truly high quality content like HT
I love it when I find a “watchable” Ancient History Doc!! It’s not just watchable…it’s also shareable…which is exactly what I am doing! I’m not known for my ability to sit still, so thanks!! Keep up the great work!!
I cannot believe you did all this on your own. This is on par with professional production. The sound design is so nostalgic, reminiscent of early 2000s documentaries, and the amount of information you put into this is astounding! I'm so glad you didn't give up on this, it's an impressive feat! Keep doing this please, you're a treasure to have around.
The nostalgia and overall flow of the cinematic historical data is on par with the history Channel. I can't stop watching it. The kind of education that we need, no opinion, no bias. Historical education based in factual data. The lack of such bias that unfortunately goes along with all types of knowledge based in fact makes it all the more impressive that an individual created it alone. It's spectacular.
@@corinanelson8271 i
Top notch

I agree. I’m about to post a bit of data uptop. He may have some work cut out for him yet. I’m glad there’s other people out there with great appreciation. Gives me hope for …the future.
Two years later and I still find this video extremely useful. This topic is so well-researched in this video that it should be used in university courses. The Nuragic civilization is fascinating and it makes me wonder if there was any influence to the west of Sardinia such as with the Talaiotic culture. Outstanding work.
Your videos are amazing, History Time! I've been studying the peoples of the ancient Mediterranean for several years now, primarily focused on the Etruscans (Tyrrhenians/Rasna/Rasenna) and their origins. I'm in no way a professional, but the Etruscans have fascinated me for over 15 years; so much so that I now have a sizable library dedicated to them. Your videos, especially this one on the Sea Peoples, gives all the various peoples of the area, of unknown or debated origins, their fair share of exposure and consideration. Thank you for all your hard work and may the ancient historians guide you through your journeys.
Etruscans are indeed fascinating to say the least
I won't lie, when I clicked on this while baked as fuck I was expecting it to be some Ancient Aliens-style pseudohistory based on the title, but here I am coming back to this video every few weeks. I genuinely think this video is an achievement, especially in the absence of any decent free historical programming and doubly impressive for a one man project, it's reignited my childhood love for ancient history. thanks, man
If you like this, you might like the Fall of Civilizations channel - recognisable history (no oddball silliness).
@@salparadise1220 oh don't worry, in the time between watching this for the first time and making this comment I'd listened to 11 out of his 12 episodes, prime stuff
Well I haven’t even started watching it yet but I came here due to my recommendations, yet I find reading the comments first to be helpful as then I see what I’m getting into hahaha and like a few videos I’ve had show up in my recommend home, most people end up on videos like this due to auto play, good job I turn that off so I only watch and have the history of what I have watched.
With that your comment has made me want to give this a good listen to so instead of watching it now at 1am U.K. time I’ll wait until morning and take this in properly.
Thank you for your comment for without it I may have missed something here.
I’ll check back in the morning 🙏

This is better quality than just about everything the History channel produces these days, AND IS ACTUAL HISTORY AND NOT REALITY TV. You good sir just got another subscriber.
100%
I feel bad even mentioning "the channel that shall not be named"
I subscribed as well and look forward to future episodes
Got me on board, too. Best of luck!
Who were the seapeople?
"Aliens"
Bro this is really awesome work, I can’t believe you did this all yourself .. it’s so professional it’s literally better quality than stuff you’d see on history channel
Great content! I really loved the line about "If you believe the Pharoah's propaganda, they never lost, but it appeared that they kept winning closer and closer to home". That's just good writing.
That's what Arsene Wenger said about the gooners til they had their own collapse
Yes. Do you ever watch CNN or PBS? Uncannily similar to the Pharaoh's propaganda.
@@frankmoore7292 why does UA-cam comments always find ways to bring up modern politics. Jesus Christ y'all are obnoxious
@@Superkirbeh because it's relevant to our own time
@@frankmoore7292 Whereas Fox is closer to North Korean State TV.
I'll have to remember that line: "I didn't lose, I just started winning closer to home."
@mark hart Yamnaya?
That's a quote from Egyptologist Prof Bob Brier.
It's all about framing lol
Winning battles but losing the war.
“I didn’t lose, I just started winning closer to Berlin” - Hitler
I'm a camera guy professionally and so don't really have a reason to be here. Doesn't mean I need one! The history of man kind and the things people have revered, the wars fought over resources or beliefs, the diversity of people's origins, and the ideas traded throughout... these things give context and with that a certain objectivity. At least for me. When non historians argue about who's land belongs to them, who's religion is correct, who's ideas are worthy, I like to look back at topics like the one covered in this video for some truth behind the matter. Or at least a step closer to truth than uneducated, radical claims so common in today's world. Bravo, well done, this video was beyond excellent!
Thanks Pete for all your hard work making these documentary’s and providing them free for the interested viewers to learn about our distant history.
The History Channel, Discovery Channel, etc., should be paying you for the rights to air your documentaries. It’s the least they could do, since they seem to have no interest in producing their own quality content anymore.
No they shouldn’t. In fact they should stay the fuck away as corporations have a tendency of ruining just about anything given enough time.
Plus, videos like this prove that you don’t NEED a network like that anymore.
@@NathanCassidy721 Never said he needed them. Actually was stating the opposite.
And paying for the rights to air isn’t the same thing as having him produce for them. Channels pay for the rights to air movies all the time, they don’t have creative control of those movies, so they can’t really ruin them.
@@censoreverything8072 Fair enough but I would bet money that it wouldn't stop at trying to buy the rights to broadcast. TV execs tend to want to control than cooperate.
But even with your suggestion, which I missed the point on initially admittedly, it's not necessary nor needed. Not that many people watch TV networks outside of sports when you can just pull up Netflix or UA-cam and look for what you want to watch. And even those that do know that most of the best stuff is usually behind subscription streaming services nowadays so there wouldn't be much of a point of putting it on Discovery or History when there are better options, like say Curiosity Stream.
Haha yup, youtubers are producing better content than the history channel and other television networks.
I was actually thinking the same thing the other day!! It would be nice for the history channel to do actual historical content but this 2 hour doc would be over 10, 30 min episodes with ad breaks every 5 min and then a 2 min recap when you get back from break. So yea fuck that
Man everything before the Roman empire is just interesting and mysterious.
and to think someday we'll be those strange and mysterious people😦
If the great library at Alaxandria wasent burned then many of these mysterys might have been revealed but alas it was.
@@desertranger1095 who burnt it

To all who were and are apart of making these compositions. Grand simply grand. Much gratitude 🙏🏼
I can’t believe this is a one man operation. You, sir, are incredible. How I wish I’d had this documentary when I was taking a course on ancient Egypt. The professor spent about two minutes on the Sea Peoples and even in my ignorance, I knew there had to be more! This is one of those mysteries that traverses time and is inescapably fascinating. I enjoyed this opus of yours immensely and will be re-watching several times. This is the absolute best piece of research on this subject I have ever come across. And, the music is perfect.
This is by far the best documentary I have ever watched expositing the Bronze Age collapse. I want to commend you for your efforts, and I thank you for your time and dedication to this upload, a crowning achievement for your channel.
So true!
So are these ancient sea peoples the Phoenicians? Or are they a completely different ethnic group. I always though the Phoenicians were the first sea people of the ancient Mediterranean.
Repent to Jesus Christ!
“Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.”
Psalms 42:11 NIV
B
And here we are facing it all again with open borders!
@@Sailrjup12nh “Phoenicians” (Φοινικες) is an Ancient Greek designation for the Canaanites that enters into the archaeological record immediately after the Bronze Age collapse. How the “sea peoples” may have assimilated into the region historically termed “Canaan” by the neighboring ancient Egyptians and Hurrians is a matter of debate among modern historians.
I greatly appreciate the use of Vigil(or perhaps a riff on it) from Mass Effect while describing the apocalypse of the Bronze Age, incredibly fitting.
I hardly knew anything about the bronze age collapse other than that there was one, and "the sea people" had something to do with it. This was a very detailed, informative video - thanks to you I now know quite a bit more about this pivotal period in history. Thank you!
This is ONE OF THE BEST history channels on UA-cam.
I personally believe it is THE best, it is simply unrivaled. And the fact that it is British just raises it even further in my eyes.
THE best
moroccan geographer no dude kings and generals and epic history tv are equal if not greater
@@francmarcus8433 I kinda agree, but remember that Kings and generals now has an entire team behind it with lots of financial backing from its subs, and History time is a multitide smaller. I love kings and generals but i love History time just as much, his quality is equal to a channel with a channel with alot more subs and money, and the topics History time handles are rarely handled. I love that kings and generals has been handling quite obscure topics as well lately though! And History time tends to be MUCH more indepth than any channel ive seen except maybe ones like fall of civilizations.
Clearly none of you have found the "Fall of civilazations podcast".

Love your content man. I think I’ve even asked you about doing a video on the Sea People. They’re so fascinating.
collab pls stefan
I don't know why, but I always get so excited when I see you comment on. Videos. Skiddly doo to you!
This is probably one of the best and most thorough pieces of info that I have ever seen or read involving the sea peoples. Fantastic job the creator did! Fantastic!
I’ve always wondered about the expression “the Pharoh settled his conquered enemies in the X territories.” Sounds a lot more like a negotiated settlement rather than a victory by one people over another
Your documentaries are so good. The various cable networks that used to play shows like this should hire you. It's amazing how 1 guy puts entire networks and all their money to shame. Keep up the awesome work!
In Germany we still get good documentaries, but maybe not as in depth as this one. On ARTE and ZDF‘s Terra X.
@@leksluthor3 Ja stimmt, meistens sind aber auch die Themen breiter gefächert als hier.
Ich würde sagen Deutsche Fernsehsender, Mal ganz abgesehen von den offenkundig dümmlichen wie RTL, machen ihren Job Recht gut!
you saw nothing . try to listen to the audio book of "1177 bc the year civilization collapsed" by Eric H. Cline .
its the most complete and the best thing ever made about this time period . the audio book is 8 hours long
Chakarvarti
@@LauftFafa lol, that is a popular history. 8 hours is minor, most exhaustive works are above 20.

This is the kind of stuff that gets me interested in history. They're like bronze-age Mediterranean vikings
Your videos are simply the best. It’s incredible the depth you go into on your own. Even big TV networks with lots of corporate connections and huge production budgets have nothing on the quality of your content.
I just love how amazing these documentaries of yours are. It’s crazy to think a UA-cam channel is 10x better than the history channel.

Even editing a 10 min video takes hours, i know how hard this must have been
I love how honest he is. “ then there are the shreds of written evidence.” Lolol
Ladies and Gentlemen! Nerds and Nerdettes! He's back, the one, the only: man with two and a half hour videos of the stuff you like!
Also the man with an add for every 10 minutes in the video
This fact is why I don't stay around long... can we get the adverts cut by 2/3 or are they directly required for the channel to make money?
"Nerdettes were believed to have originated in the southern Iberian peninsula and raided Crete in the 12th century. But for unknown reasons the Nerdettes vanish from the archaeological record shortly afterward."
No cheapskates put 17 adds in an hour-long video they dont own
@D- Goms no offense taken brother of you pay for premium you dont get adds
This channel gives me the old History Channel vibes, Ancient Empires and the old documentaries. Weird place to be hit with nostalgia, considering it is History Time. Thank you for what you do, incredibly insightful and well explained.
You know what changed? CEOS who only care about their airhead wife and family. Who cares the shows they create are absolute crap the ratings are good (sarcasm). They care about being able to vacation to a mansion in Cape cod for the summer not the quality of crap they produce.
Yeah now its only Ancient Aliens lolol

Really great stuff. 2 and half hours is basically a miniseries and it's all flawless 10/10
This is amazing! Almost can’t believe it’s a one man team. It’s better than most documentaries I’ve watched
Astonishing stuff, and can’t believe how you just churn this stuff out. As a history graduate and major history freak myself I’m in awe of your work. In a just world the BBC or whoever would sign you up and throw money at you to make whatever you wanted. I’m sure everyone watching this channel would agree, thank you so much your efforts are greatly appreciated.
The BBC would make him tell us that Europeans caused the collapse with their privilege.
Somebody should certainly snap up this talented, hardworking person!
@@floridmike4696 I would not trust the BBC to tuch anything history related or we probably end up with a black Shakespeare or worse. The BBC need to be rebooted with employees free of activism.
Agreed. But maybe this free form building his own audience is the best way.
Then BBC or whoever would burden, taint his craft by their standards.
When you start looking at one age you almost have to continue with the remaining parts. thank you for producing this history.
I want to first thank God for allowing me to recover from my former addiction and self destructive tendencies and then secondly I just want to say that this documentary is extremely attractive to my wondering mind and it's these examples that help me to maintain my strength and my sobriety ❤️. That being said.. I wanted to say thank you for the tremendous effort I know you must have put forth into researching and then putting together such an amazingly interesting documentary. From my heart man thank you for your efforts and I desperately look forward to seeing the next one you put together and upload. God bless all & it's nice to join you guys here for such an awesome presentation of our looong since history ❤️.
When your historic name is followed by "the despicable" You have done something.

@John M. No mention of the Mayans, I bet they crossed the Atlantic regular. Very clicky fiefdoms all over. But they couldn't command armies without good leadership.

UA-cam history passed TV history years ago lol. TV is for the feeble minded
Amazing. Been hearing about the Sea People for years. This is so far the best video I have seen on who they were. I love the long format. Some topics require a lot of time to cover.
Your work for the historical things you teach are some of the best i ever came across in my 23 years of life… incredibly AMAZING work that you should always feel humbly proud of. Heck the truth in life is always the way to go🙏✝️good work amigo.
The quality of your show reminded me what History, Discovery and other channels used to be when they first started. Super professional and interesting work!
Before the "reality show" trend
Discovery still has some good documentaries.
My gut feeling is that most Bronze Age Empires came into being by controlling the land routes for trade ...but eventually ships improved to the point that they could compete with the land routes.
This new competition caused the Empires to go into financial decline , but they still had centuries of accrued wealth, which made them very tempting targets for the new ship building cultures, so they began raiding them, which caused the whole trade system to collapse.
The Sea People basically impoverished their own customer base for the goods they had been hauling causing an economic collapse that neither the Empires or the Sea People survived.
Imagine to be the ones to find the Uluburun shipwreck and realise it's contents, to feel how your mind spins as you understand the complexity of a time you begin to see is far beyond what anyone could have imagine.
A one man crew, my god my man this is ten times better than anything one would find on the history channel bravo my man.
the sea peoples fled climate disaster...there was horrific flooding rains that poured on southern italy and sicily...lots of natural disasters were happening...not just rising waters from these rain floods but also volcanoes going off...all the people in sicily and southern italy fled and fought egypt

It blows my mind that one man is producing these amazing documentaries, and that he does it on such a frequent basis. The amount of research that goes into these videos must be immense. I don’t know how he does it.
@@sa_exploder I was thinking the same, after I made this post I went and looked at fellows upload schedule and was shocked how often he puts out videos of equal quality. Here I am trying to drag my ass out of bed and it takes me 3 hours to make a fucking cup of coffee, this fellow might have two videos done by then :D
@@kickassandchewbubblegum639 Ok, can't say if I agree or disagree but I feel you might have left this comment in the wrong place to be honest.
I love how this documentary is framed in an almost apocalyptic way. It is made in such a way it almost feels like a story being told, not the few facts of the distant past we can find. Well done!
this guys voice is perfect,i leave his vids playing all night long.
TY for all the vids.
That was awesome. First read about the Sea People as a teenager in Wilbur Smith’s Egyptian series which paints a vivid picture of their technological superiority that led to the fall of Old Kingdom Egypt and the creation of an occupied kingdom ruled from Avaris. Well worth reading.
Also, this is the only channel I've seen on UA-cam that has the talent to make the still image of an ancient map be compelling and engaging, bravo. Not only can you teach, but you can also entertain.
Wow lol for real tho this guys good
I think they were phonoeciens/ Philistines
This documentary alone is such a huge accomplishment and yet you’ve made so many amazing films. You are so incredibly informative and present everything in such a simple and pleasing way. I can’t thank you enough for your work!
I swear you have the best historical documentary in the game
I can’t get enough of these long form YT docs and they make better sleep aids than drugs, thank you!!!
Wow, your way of telling this story while presenting the solid evidence for everything that you covered is absolutely incredible. Of all of the programs on the Sea Peoples out there (I've seen a bunch lately), this one is the Shahenshah of them all! Great job man, this one will forever be a History Time classic!
Give us a special on chariots CY! lol
Her: I know he's thinking about her that cheater!
Him: who were the sea peoples?
Lmfao
Ha! Nice!
The ancient vikings, before we knew them as vikings
omg sounds like my previous relationship xD
He does RW !
Finally saw the documentary in its entirety! Thank you so much for blessing us with this masterpiece! I hope you do a documentary on ancient Greece, it deserves a lengthy presentation!
For the Sea Peoples, funnily enough, the vast majority of the described are actually Greeks (Denyen = Danaans, Ekwesh = Achaeans, Lukka = Lycians, Peleset = Philistines (the most famous of all), Teucrians = Minoans, Weshesh)...
Οι Φιλισταίοι ήταν σημιτικος λαός, δεν είχε σχέση με τα αρχαιοελληνικα φύλα πέρα από μετέπειτα αναμειξεις με τους κρητες. Το ότι οι Έλληνες τους έλεγαν φιλισταιους δε σημαίνει ότι δεν ήταν σημιτικος μεσοποταμιος λαός και ήταν ελληνικός.

I love finding historical documentaries on UA-cam, especially lengthy ones. Most are taken from TV but this, the fact that it's entirely made by you, that's fantastic! Kudos! You've gained a new subscriber!
I can't believe this is just on UA-cam for free. I learned so much from this video, and you're a fantastic storyteller. Subscribed, and I look forward to tearing through this channel's archive.
Interesting that people think knowledge should be paid for instead of open source
@@se6586 The comment is clearly referring to the piece of high quality content that has been researched, presented and created, not knowledge as a concept being free
I really enjoy your documentaries. Everything about them, the material, the visual it’s all premium. Keep them coming and thanks for sharing.
CACAZOID HORDES THAT BROUGHT DOWN BLACK EGYPT.. JUST LIKE THEY COLONIZED AGAIN AFRICA IN THE 1800'S..
great analysis and documentation about the 'Bronce age Collapse' event! Thank you very much for retelling this important event in our history! There was already a global economy back then, the consequences of which resulted in a catastrophe! We are experiencing the same thing again right now! What type of disaster will we experience?
I am amazed this is a one person show! It's impressive, give this guy a YT Award for hustle and grind! Great work on this channel.

I feel this is either garbage or genius but i liked it.
Hahaha! Bullseye!

Sounds fishy to me!
I love these documentaries. I fall asleep listening to them and have the craziest, most wonderful dreams about bronze age living ❤
Your conveyance of historical facts is so entertaining one can/should listen to it on a loop for the sake of sound comprehension and researchability
My favourite bit was the line about the Pharos winning all their battles progressively closer to home.
Only 25 mins in and it's amazing. Can't believe content this well produced is free on YT. Great job guys, the narration is on point and the pace, so far, is perfect.
Great stuff guys, I can't believe we have independent creators like you besting heavily funded channels like History channel and Natgeo. It's easy to see why TV us dying.
I always search this video when I'm having a hard time sleeping. The narrator's voice is so soothing 😊
A proper production! Love the musical arrangement, awesome landscape images and a beautiful but mysterious history. Thank you.
"And if you aren't seeking knowledge, well... pretty sure that's how you get Sea People"
Fell off my chair.
20 minutes in and i can tell how well done and researched this is. thank you for your hard work!
Dude shut up, I can’t hear the movie. Turn off your cellphones in the movie theater please.
Just learned I was of Anatolian origin; I share the same Haplogroup with remnants between 9500 BC - 1200 BC, mainly between Hattusha and Troy. Then I get relatives in Caucasia, south Ukraine, Europe, Iran.. all dated between 800 BC ~ Present.
Something drove my paternal lineage out of Anatolia and it started 1200 BC. And this information brought me here. Didn’t know about such a big event in the history.
I dont know why but I laughed when you said Pharaoh's never lost. They just won closer and closer to home 😂. I was hooked in the first 6 minutes. Awesome stuff my dude. Subscribed.
Repent to Jesus Christ!

I thank you so much, this video was the best I have ever seen on the Sea People. I was so confused about all the tribes and different cultures that made up these mysterious people and you have made it 100% more knowledgeable and easier to understand. Thanks again and I will be looking for more of your videos. 🍀
This was so fascinating. I was engaged the whole way through. The music fit and the visuals were great. It was also organized really really well and I can't wait to learn more.
I love your channel - this is what the history channel always should have been
Please don’t make me cry.

When History Channel first came on air in the early to mid 90s, this could've very easily been on there.
Imagine making such amazing content and just putting it on UA-cam for free you're a legend man
In the Odyssey, Homer writes that Menelaus obtains a large treasure from Egypt on the way home from the Trojan war. He also recounts a curious story told by Odysseus to the swineherd when he first arrives back in Ithaca. Disguised as a beggar, Odysseus tells the swineherd that he was from Crete and had taken part in an attack on Egypt that sounds uncannily similar to the Egyptian inscription. It appears that Homer knew something about the sea people.
From what I remember from reading Homer, it seems very likely that he is describing the bronze age collapse. During the 10 year siege of Troy about 1/4 or the supposedly 100k Mycenaeans were off raiding and conquering other places for months at a time before returning to the beaches of Troy to change places with other soldiers who would in turn go out raiding
@@alexdunphy3716 Yes. The Iliad states that Achillies with the Myrmidons and other Achaeans had sacked many cities prior to the incident which was the subject of the Iliad. There were likely many other related stories that have been lost.
@@alexdunphy3716 I'm not disputing the core of your comment, but it may be worth noting that 10 year figure given as the length of the siege of Troy (or, indeed, the exploits of Odysseus) is inaccurate--although I can't say by how much.
To my understanding, it tracks with a popular turn of poetic phrase "9 times and then a 10th", which was used in Homer's time to convey that a task had been quite arduous and required many attempts, even if the actual number had been greater or lesser than exactly 10. In which case, what the commentary on the siege tells us is not necessarily that it took 10 actual years, but rather that it took a very long time by the reckoning of the people of the day.
Very true. In my opinion, the sea peoples were mainly mycenaean warriors turned pirates after the collapse of the palaces. Ramses III says they attacked Arzawa, Alashyia, Hatti, Kode, Karkamish. But not Tanaya or Caphtiu, that's how they called Greece and Crete. Maybe because they WERE from Tanaya and Caphtiu. The greek palaces seem tô have been the first domino tô fall. Then all hell broke loose. Also Ramses III says the sea peoples set up a camp in Amorru and devastated the area for years,. Seems a lot like the trojan campaign, where the greeks set up a camp and sacked everything Worth talking until nothing else lasted there tô loot.
Homer,or most likely the vardes ,the storytellers ,that compose with their own patches the two epics,the Iliad and the Odyssey,are doing their best to illuminate through narratives the darkness of the upheaval that brought the Dark ages upon their world,of which memories are more recent than the
Great narrative and sequencing. I love learning and it was extremely interesting and easy to follow. Although long I paused and returned it. Thanks, I really enjoyed.
One of the key events that triggered the famines and collapse: ~1600 BCE - Santorini Volcano Eruption. Santorini (Thyra) lies North of Crete, so is surrounded by the Greek and Hittite empires, with the Egyptians a bit further away. The ash clouds would cause famine all around, people would fight for the remaining food, society collapses and it gets worse, then they use any means (e.g. boats) to flee far away to other lands to pillage for food/new land, hence "the sea peoples" are born.
Most thorough analysis of the Sea People ever.
The narrator sounds like Littlefinger, Pepe the Frog
Sea peeps for short

Well done. Your dedication to presenting history in a thorough and interesting way always impresses. Few people try to delve so deep into the early parts of recorded history on UA-cam. Your videos are never boring and always worth watching if anyone wants to delve deeper than the basic dates and names.
absolutely love your content. your voice is direct, yet oddly soothing, and the quality of the videos rivals that of nat geo or nova. keep at it man.
This story is complex to the max; I appreciate the amount of work to make this doc: amazing!
The real, historically documented version of "then the Fire Nation attacked."
Let's be honest, 2020 would be the year we find a frozen 12 year old who can control the elements in Greenland or somewhere.
I was lucky enough to visit Egypt in 1963 with my mother, two sisters, and my brother Christopher. Ages 18,16,14.
Pre-air conditioning. Fascinating. Hope to visit next year.
Your so right its freaky..... accidently, or maybe not..... but you are right regardless. All our stories come from somewhere.
until all that winning felt bad and you let the other guy have one
.Sort of reminds you of current times but in a larger scale-- We were not doing anything pressing on those dates, lets invade Egypt.
Dude, you are one of the most very knowledgeable historians in this field I have ever listened to. Keep up the great work my friend!
The tribe of Dan was part of the Israelite nation that came out of Egypt during the Exodus. There’s plenty of information about the battles between Israel and the Canaanites and the Hittites, peoples that you mention here in this video. I enjoyed it, unfortunately there’s so much of history that’s been lost to us regarding the past of the world. The movies that could be made would be extraordinary if we had that information accurately.
Great job.
Grateful for this channel. History ASMR while I work. Easy to pay attention to without being too distracting. Between the music and the narrator, I am relaxed.
Never thought that such a long video would be this interesting. Well done Pete Kelly! Looking forward to the next one.

Appreciate the in depth histories of these people. Much better than a 40 minute History Channel doc
This is beyond what History Channel is capable of producing. With the History Channel doing this you would end up with the narrator asking surprising questions to every ridiculous speculation as if each one is a fact. I find it laughable and irritating at the same time. Watch the Oak Island series and you'll see what I mean. This is high quality content.
This is my favorite UA-cam video about The Sea Peoples. It's so incredibly well done and informative!
I had a History professor at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana who was searching for archeological evidence of the Sea People's in the late 90's.
