    Not well know in Med Science History - I knew working at NIH-Bethesda, MD at time of Mt. St. Helens' eruption - NIH sent medical research scientists to Mt. St. Helen's to investigate eruption's impact on med health. The eruption caused two new virus mutations researched & labeled in NIH research archives.

      But, yes, it helped in the migration to NZ, since we were settled at the tail end of those second cycle of voyages.
      I mean, you could easily say Disney's Moana showed that interpretation, with TeWheti possibly being the Polynesian cultural interpretation of that eruption and it's effects on the populations across the South Pacific afterwards.

    Very interesting program based on understanding the health, politics, and migration.
    Quite interesting. But your high-tone bells, and horns plus flute music really hurt my ears so much that I ended up with an extreme headache, having to quit listening/watching.
    Any way you could 1) lower the volume, 2) lower the tone of the incessant bells 3) eliminate the background music and bells entirely? I think using one or more of the methods listed could greatly improve this program. Thanks!

    There is more to this backstory that is not being said - about the REAL FALL and implosion of the Western European Roman Empire.
    In the 400s-600s, the massive population refugees that came INTO the European theater, WAS CAUSED by the invasion of the Chinese-named Wu Hei, who invaded from Siberia down into China and northern India and eastern Persia. This caused the majority of these populations to flee westward. Huns (Chinese capitol Huangs) Saxons (South Huangs), Angles (Huangs), Jutes (religious group under leader Judah Tse), Slavs (religous group under leader Lau Tse), Vranagians (Persian-Huang intermarrieds), Vandals (Indian Panthali tribe), Ostrogoths (Eastern European Goths, Indian Gautama tribe), Visigoths (Western European/North African Goths, Indian Gautama tribe). It is also remnant other populations of dark skinned people, invaded into and settled in the (later) Central Arab Republics, Mideast, and Egypt. These "Arabs" (Hebrew erebs, dark skinned people) were not biblical Ishmaelite, and not ancient populations there. They came from China, India, and eastern Persia.
    All these fled from massive drought, volcanic climate change, planetary heat dome cycles, disease, war invasion ... westward.
    The Wu Hei who appeared out of Siberia, like the 800 years later (1200s CE) Mongols ... WERE ... Mayans, Mi-ho-ui-cans ... Wu Hei. Both of these groups came from the (known) 400 year cycles of civilization and climate collapse in the Mayan empire 1200 BCE - 1200 CE. It is the Aztec empire, that came down at the end of the Mayan dynastic collapse, and started the Aztec empire (1200s - 1513 CE). All these events pushed out these Central Americans into North America, the West Coast of North America, gathering up horses (which were first native to North America - not the Old World), cut down forests, made extensive sailing ships, and sailed to the Siberian steppes and Asia (in both 400s and 1200s CE periods).
    The Mayan Wu Hei and the Mayan Mongols (Mayan Cohols, Gauls) were NOT indigenous to the Siberian steppes, they were foreign populations that entered into the Old World ....
    This is part of the real worldwide population movement, ALONG SIDE, and being the possible primary reason for massive population relocations in this 400s-600s period of time - is climate collapse and then this volcanic event.

      Okay. You may be right. Idk. I offer that we forgive them. Someone or many someones had to make that decision. Maybe they thought it would help them get more views? I don't think anyone would argue against the quality of the work or the value of their hour long content. If a re-upload helps them at all, I think it's okay, or even better that they do it.
      Also, to the person saying they're all uploads... yes, right? Because they were all on BBC tv before I am guessing, yes?
      Also, amusingly to me, the information about krakatoa is relayed in such a manner that it is a surprise somehow that all the business of a whole darkened Earth is the responsibility of such a notorious volcano as to be referenced by the B52s, almost as if it was an adjective, not a noun. Of course it was krakatoa. If we, at least in America, aren't talking about Pompei specificallyfor it's archeological significance, or St Helens, because that just doesn' thappen here, sort of feeling of surpirise and devastation about it, well what other volcano are we going to talk about? Yes, okay, rhe ring of fire. But all those islands aren't major population centers, and world famous technologically innovative and industrial centers, necessarily, but small land masses characteizef by volcanic upheaval that which i.pact may be limited to a very small and culturally isolated set of people. Of course we are talking about krakatoa and only because it was so enormous and devasting and so far reaching in it's devastation. What else are we going to talk about? Vesuvious? Idk. I think that one is only interesting because, idk, elevation and it's proximation to other European destinations now and forever ago? But whatever research they have to offer in their studies as evidence pinning it all on kakatoa is noteworthy and I want to know, even if I was sure it was krakatoa well before we got there in section one of all this. I think they do an oustanding job a dramatizing it, and somehow sharper couched in all the even keel emotionless presentation, except its British, so the emotion is there, but it's subtle. I love it!

The rise of serfdom, the feudal system, the sudden loss literacy and its commensurate loss of written works? All very well attributable to a sudden lack of resources compounded with a pandemic disease.
    Ironically, the next outbreak of plague in the late 1300's would reverse the process and set the world onto the course producing the Enlightenment. The difference between plague with volcanic winter and plague without.

    The Avars were a Mongoloid people but the video portrays them as European- totally false. Also like the Vikings and as taught in Russian Universities, the Avars had no need to wash as the lived outdoors all their lives. The Slavs, the largest group of Indo Europeans bathed each day as they always lived by rivers hunted and grew crops. The Slavs were allies of the Avars and besieged Constantinople in 625 AD. Slavs always fought each other and the Wends pushed the Germans further Westward to the Elbe River. The Sorbs lived on the East side whilst the Saxons were on the West side. The Wends were feared raiders in their long ships with dragon heads and constantly raided the Vikings. Due to their large population Slavs from what is now Belarus invaded the Balkans and took Greece.
