Why was it an obligation for Greek citizens to attend the theater?

Thank you very interesting 😍

Great video. Thanks for posting.

One of the best videos for the early history in Siracusa

thank you for this little tour:)

Where were you in the last 30 seconds of the video?

My God, man. I think you started by showing us the skeleton of a dwarf elephant and talked about how it could’ve arrived on the islands off Sicily. And then you moved into the cave art of this island and proceed to describe an image in black paint of a 4-legged beast with a Long curvy Trunk that is depicted AND YOU CALL IT A COW. ??? I think you’ve made a mistake here. COWS DO NOT HAVE TRUNKS. Do Carry On…

Exactly it is Albanian it's called you did not even mention them called Abresha so they immigrated even before Christ to Calabria and build that Castle by sea. you forget about that! They move form Turks and move and immigrated to City Calabria and this is how Calabria has name. I am sorry if i am wrong but no i am not. and This is fact

Church tradition was to place gargoyles on the exterior of church's to show the cosmic pattern of how the structures of identity dissolve as you go further from the church. A gargoyle is a monster. A monster is something you can't name. A new identity that doesn't fit a category of meaning. The mermaid is a mix of identities. It's a woman who can swim in the waters. Half woman half fish- a mix of identity. The cat with the horses body and the dog with a possibly mixed body... mixing of identity. An identity crisis. This is the "waters" that flood the "earth". When you dissolve the structure it turns to water. The more structures that dissolve the more the water. Noahs ark... the animals of the earth... 2 clean 2 unclean... this all ties in with the same story. We read everything LITERALLY 😅😅 Damn, most Christians think that Adam and Eve were the first two individual human beings 😂😂 not even read Genesis.

Thank you for this video tour. I’m planning on visiting the hilltop village of my great grandparents nearby (Accettura) and you gave us an idea for a unique way to experience these two borghi which are on our list. Cheers!

Thank you very much...!

Lovely! Thanks for posting.

Sono passati più di 500 anni fa.sono arbereshe di arberia= albania.sono scappati durante atroce domino dei islamisti turchi che volevano cambiare con la forza di tagliagole cultura e religione Ma arbereshe sapevamo benissimo che loro principe giorgio castriota ha combatuto contro ottomani per conservare religione e cultura cristiana ortodossa...albanesi di allora finché era giorgio castriota erano tutti cristiani ortodossi. Giorgio castriota gjergj kastrioti. morì nel l468.dopo la sua morte e cominciato calvario del popolo albanese.islamisti con la forza di tagliagole impedivano albanesi di allora leggere e scrivere con proprio alfabeto. Il peggio è quando nelle registrazioni della popolazione una volta in potere cambiavano nomi e cognomi ' da cristiani ortodossi in musulmani. Turchia islamista impediva albanesi di sventolare la propria bandiera🦅🇦🇱🦅. Quella delle aquile. 🦅🇦🇱🦅' sostituendo con quella della schiavitù ' quella islamista.turchia islamista ha fatto un danno irrecuperabile agli albanesi di allora negando la vera propria identità. Perciò arbereshe hanno da dire tanto il perché hanno preso le barche per raggiungere le coste italiane.... arbereshe sono figli di Gesù e non figli del sultano ... tutt' ora sultano erdogan non dimentica la bella posizione geografica della bella albania. Le sue interesse sono soltanto riempire adriatico pieno di moschee. Viva popolo arbereshe 🦅🇦🇱🦅 .👋🇮🇹

Thanks bro.👍🇬🇪❤️❤️

this is interesting. I want to take a tour like that one day when I go to england.

Syd had a part-time job collecting the supermarket trolleys in the car park at the local Sainsbury's 😱😱 Is that true? I've never heard about!

Good stuff, I’m of Sicilian heritage- can’t wait for the Baroque lecture and yes I love Montalbano - the writer (passed away few years back only recently) very talented cinematic writer - loved and respected throughout Italy

🎶 Shine on you crazy diamond 🎶💎

Excellent video.thanks for showing us.always wanted to see this!

Lochfyne has gone now it is Little Rose pub again.

That was born.

I was morn there. Le zampogne the shepherd play music 🎶🎵 with , it's especially before an up to Christmas.

Can't hear you clearly for most of the video.

I have a rental house in Calabria for those who may be interested to visit.

My father is from here. I will visit soon. I have my Italian passport:)

Great video, fascinating, well-plotted and written, and amazing to have so much beautiful accompany footage to make the story so real

Beautiful, beautiful. Cambridge is a hidden gym of Europe

I stumbled across this... I enjoyed it immensely . Thanks for the history lesson. We are going on holiday to the Salento this September! Greetings from Naples, Florida!

The Orthodox monks were closed minded recluses who kept calabria dark. I hate the orthodox rulership of calabria. Boring and uneventful. Calabria should have been run at least by visionary leaders of Constantinople instead of low life hermits

Why do you speak from such ignorance and arrogance. The title is so misleading. You are a joke. Read up on your history bud. Read up where the king of normans was born?

the Zampogne just made me cry ...beautiful memories for me ..thank you so much ..

They're Orthodox monks coming straight from the monastic Republic of Mount Athos in Greece, they depend on the Patriarch of Costantinoples(today, Istanbul, Turkey). Calabria was part of the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine Empire, which survived until 1453, whose Capital city was Costantinoples!), Note: the Eastern Roman Empire was born after the fall of the Western Roman Empire whose Capital city was Rome

Did not know you could go skiing there

2 great great grandfathers of mine were from Calabria 🇦🇷🇮🇹🤌🤌😘😘

Thank you so much for a wonderful lecture. I learned so much about the land of my ancestors. I hope to visit some of the places you talked about.

Don’t forget the cathedral in Cefalù, place of my ancestors.

Great, but will you PLEASE get closer to, or invest in a proper external microphone?

Yes right the Phoenicians did come to the Italian islands and quasi mixed with pre-roman Italian Peoples of ancient times sometimes trade a few other Gods but usually not sometimes trade coloring and handwriting but also things to wasn't dispensation giving two people of southern Europe Southern Europeans were also giving things to the Phoenicians from Canaan(Palestine/Lebanon/Syria) and North Africa aka Carthage.

Great lecture and presentation!

St Botolph is said to have preached under a Pear Tree in Buttsbury Essex, the old names of Buttsbury are many in 1219 botolfviespire was its name, I like to think the Church the lonely Church with no village now is where he preached, interesting connection, North Door Ironwork is possibly Viking or even Saxon, there were 7 Saxon Monors here, was the Ironwork from Cnut? Cnut the Great had Botolphs body moved, another Church St Botolph in Hadstock Essex, is Saxon, but built by Cnuts army after 1016, a further connection in the same area as Buttsbury, a street called Perry St in neighbouring Billericay is said to come from Pear St, Wolvensbridge was here in 1295, History is fascinating and adictive

Ora pro nobis

New evidence suggests that the Carthaginians did not sacrifice children. DNA samples of the children's bodies returned both male and female, which is contrary to the accounts given asserting the Phoenicians conducted child sacrifice.

Wonderful D!! Lovely to hear your voice. You nailed it. I remember you bringing back Pink after the gig.....wearing the Afghan coat...♥️

I would love to visit these places you have mentioned. I was born in Sicily and speak the language. I would definitely visit after The COVID issue has passed us.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻it's a pleasure to listen to you.

I took four pages of notes on this lecture. I am ashamed to admit it, but despite being Sicilian I didn't know many of the things beautifully explained. THANK YOU VERY MUCH INDEED! It has been amazing!

Interesting and wonderful video! Thanks to Damian!!
