    I wish this series was presented in order in the playlist. Or numbered in the title. It would make things a hell of a lot easier to follow.
    This is a great series! Just knowing the right order would make it perfect.

    Joann's own passion and love of Egypt's history, plays a huge part in grabbing people's attention and giving us all a much wider understanding of the Ancient country. It really is quite a remarkable thing, knowing those people were in existence over twice as long as our own known histories to date. For anyone that's never been, who might think it's not for them. Go, and you'll never regret it, most of us go more than once, twice, three or four times lol, it is addictive and fascinating.

    Dear Professor Joann, Thank you for a wonderful narration on one of the most iconic locations in Africa. Though I was born in Ethiopia, As an African, and a desperate seeker of the self and my ancestry, I am proud to call Egypt as my home. So it brings me joy to see it exposed to the rest of the world who is still convinced that Africa was a dark continent before colonizers overtook it, and had no civilization. I am however forced to disagree with your depiction of the kushites as a separate entity to Egypt, and its civilization.
    You see, before the three were divided, Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia all lived in harmony as one united kingdom ruled by a single pharaoh. History books written by our African historians, describe that every risen pharaoh, no matter where he arose, respected all his subjects and treated their gods as if they were his own. No belittling, no mockery. And there were a lot of marital and filial relationships between the three. So as a result, you may say that the kushites were never haunted by Egypt's own culture, but rejuvenated their own, and brought it back to its former glory. The kushites were the son's of nubia, and so were egyptian pharaohs. Long live Nubia. Again, Thank you!

      @@malchir4036 Hello friend! I think we can all agree that all civilizations have been found around river basins. Now I'm not exactly clear on what you're trying to emphasize, That Africa was never a place of civilization, or just Nubia, but I can definitely tell you that you are wrong on both. What on EARTH I'm talking about is the cultural and ethnical brotherhood of these 3 countries and their sharing of them as one unified entity. If you're not aware of this then I can understand, and possibly, recommend a few resources which might help you better understand the roots of these sovereign countries. Piankhi, the first Kushite pharaoh of Nubia was born of an Egyptian pharaoh and a Nubian mother, and despite his torture after his father's murder, he rose to kingship nevertheless and was crowned and pictured as one of the greatest pharaohs. There's no way to differentiate him, unless you read the hieroglyphs on the scriptures. What I'm trying to say is whatever their internal differences, these 3 countries were always one, and hopefully they will be again some day.
      And if what you're trying to say is these countries were never civilized, I suggest you go back in time and read up on their history, as it's the merchants of Nubia who developed early mathematics and accounting systems as a ways to do business with Yemen and the far east. These and so many more make the "Sub-Saharan" countries, which you described as uncivilized, CIVILIZED.
      Thanks for your comment.

      Also, this is not about racial superiority, no race is superior by default. It's about history rather than pseudo-history. The Kush dynasty reigned during the third Intermediate Period after the Bronze Age Collapse, not during Egypts primes. Egypt wasn't their "home", they conquered it. It's where the name Kush Empire comes from.

    In fact, Ramsses II left so many heirs that it caused Egypt to fracture politically along with the powerful priesthood of Amun who crowned themselves Pharoahs in different Nomes. This destabilised Egypt in the later period and they were invaded by the Persians who took advantage of Egypt's weakness. Alexander the Great then defeated Persia became Pharoah and thus began Greek rule (Ptolemaic dynasty). The Roman empire then reached the height of its power in around 32 B.C and conquered Egypt after the defeat of Cleopatra and Marc Anthony. Egypt was then assimilated into the Roman Empire. The Arabs and what would become the Ottoman Empire then took control of Egypt after Rome's collapse.

    • @Kemet3.0
      @Kemet3.0 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Right on point... except several loss details. The Greek rule(Ptolemaic dynasty) is the image that get so many people confused ( Cleopatra movie)because this is ERA whereas white people promoted that they build ancient Egypt. Cleopatra was thousands years later from another invasion of Egypt.
      Although, Cleopatra was born in Egypt, she traced her family origins to Macedonian Greece and Ptolemy.
      It's smart on their part to highlight this part of Egypt history. And, tell it their way.
      So Afrocentric history get whitewashed.

    She got some of it right (7:28, 9:35) what happened. Egypt and Nubia were intertwined... Egypt conquered Nubian for centuries and Nubian ascent and did the same.
    However, they lived and married each other for centuries because they were on the border and battle each other.
    But, from all the research I did ... the Kushites conquer due to being petitioned by Egyptian priests who were enraged with Syrian barbaric ways of destroying Egypt's great history.
    Nubians were already entrenched into their society in the Upper Egypt region for several centuries. This is what helped build up the Nubian's wealth and power.

      So religious of you. lol
      How about devoting your adult life to KNOWING?
      And leave the "believing" to the children who have not yet attain to the 'age of reasoning', and to the mind-wasting religious "believers" who never grow up from their "age of believing" as young children must do?
      Everything that comes into existence, will have to go out of existence ... in Time.
      Kemet/Ancient Egypt came into existence and goes out of existence to satisfy its natural life cycle.
      Your "fantastic image and excess" are just your superficial perspective on a reality that is presently too profound for your understanding.
      "Believers in fantastic images and excess" would be way too shallow to have raised up a Civilization as profound as Kemet/Ancient Egypt.
      And that should not be a difficult conclusion for anyone who has been witnessing shallow achievements of those who are into "fantastic images and excess" in life.
      They never create and leave anything lasting.

      Yes indeed.
      There has been way too much disrespect given to those very very profound people who have accomplished so much for such a long period of time.
      And those ancient people were intent on leaving lasting legacy to their descendants; because the entire planet was to enter another of its natural eras of 'mental winter'.

Where once women would expose their private parts in the act of mockery now are raped on the streets if they dare to wear anything western. How the culture is abandoned and lost that I believe is the worst that could ever happen to this great civilization.

    Today the Fellahin of the Nile Delta and middle Egypt are thought to be the 'true descendants of ancient Egyptians'. Their rural lands always tended to be de facto autonomous from the foreigner powers of Alexandria, Fustat and Cairo which allowed them to maintain some ancient legacies.
    They still use the ancient Egyptian calendar and maintain many ancient traditions and beliefs. They tend to be darker than the typical Egyptian and their Arabic dialects Ghrbawi and Wstani are full of hieroglaphic loanwords.

      Upper Egyptians have been intermarrying with Nubians for a long time that's why they tend to be darker.
      While Upper Egyptians and Copts have kept some traditions alive, many have actually disappeared, and modern Egyptian customs, practices, beliefs, and material culture has completely changed.
      Not many people are aware that the ancient Egyptians used boomerangs for hunting wild animals since Proto-dynastic times, this is seen on the hunters palette dating to 3100 B.C.
      Tutankhamun's tomb actually contained boomerangs it that are now either in the Cairo museum or Louvre, I can't remember.
      The only tribe in Egypt today, that still use boomerangs to hunt are the Beja, who speak a Cushitic language, but many
      varieties of throwing weapons used for hunting are commonplace in Sub-Saharan Africa.
      If modern Egyptians were descendants of the ancient Egyptians, I have no idea how such an important object could have disappeared entirely.
