On our final stop on our tour of the historical and archaeological sites of Turkey we visit the oldest settlement ever discovered. The ruins of Karahan Tepe are currently the oldest, and one of the most intriguing, archaeological sites to be discovered in the last thirty years. It is home to colossal ancient constructions carved directly out of the bedrock itself. With only a fraction of this ancient hill discovered, there is still much to learn about how this sites ancient builders lived and thrived at the end of the last ice age.
Join me as we attempt to piece together one of the best known but least understood sites in our ancient past.

This is what the history and discovery channel should be! Cant thank you enough for all the amazing content you've created for the world!
If the History Channel won’t do it, then I will.
Came here to say this. As a child I loved PBS, National Geographic, The History Channel, and TLC (originally The Learning Channel). Once upon a time I could get this level of education and information just with basic cable. I’m glad that someone is filling the gap.

@@miniminuteman773Haa, damn, now that’s a response!
but seriously, all the best and thanks for sharing ur knowledge and broadening our perspective.
Not an 'Ancient Alien', 'Giant', 'Atlantean', 'doomsday prophecy' or 'Nephilim' in sight... This is real archaeology!
Congrats on hitting the 1 million subscribers mark!
What History Channel should be!
This is beautiful, the whole reason why as a medical student I choose archeological classes to fill requirements, most of human history is unknown, and archeology is the tool to uncover and understand such things. I’m tempted every day to switch majors good work man. Love your videos keep up that grind. 😊
Its all those things and it is a Big Mac.
@@allthingsknives its less that human history is unknown as much as it has been purged and rewritten to the point children are taught ridiculous lies such as we ran around naked without fire until Spacex gave us Mars
Give them a minute to come up with a semi-coherent comment. They will surely come :D "So the archways are really tall. That must mean there were giants."
"For the first time ever a real archeologist has been allowed to film here" is such immaculate shade thrown at Graham Hancock while also being true and historical so I had to give thanks.
You do realize that almost all non modern archaeologists, who made 99% of the discoveries and conclusions about those discoveries thruout the last 500 years have less credible backgrounds and far less schooling than Graham Hancock? You also realize that 99% of paid scholars say exactly what they are told to say by those who pay them? A funny thing happens when scholars/archaeologists/Scientists want to get paid the big bucks, they agree with the people paying them the big bucks. History is literally HIS STORY, because it is not written by the authors, but by the people willing to pay a writer to write down what they want. The above video proves that the Sphinx is older than it is as well as the pyramids. Because the only proof that the pyramids have been dated is by a dodgy non archaeologist treasure hunter who after everyone else inspected the pyramids for hundreds of years found an eligible, lightly etched mention of one pharoah's name that doesn't pass the Gosford glyphs test Miniwannabeman used to discredit the australian glyphs.
Yeah he found it alone, no documentation, no proof, no other cartouches or heiroglyphs in the pyramids yet that is how we date the pyramids and sphinx. Laughable. And this channel likes to cherry pick things. Granted some of his videos are great and debunks obvious forgeries, Australian Heiroglyphs for one. Sadly, the exact reasons he uses to discredit those glyphs are ignored when glossing over other things like the dating of the pyramids or the dating of Pumu Punku. The wonderful thing is that the exact dating technology used at the Tepes could be used at the Pyramids and Sphinx and every other ancient site.
But its banned by the gatekeepers. Why? Yes, you heard me, they banned the type of dating used to overwhelmingly date the Tepes. Its simple, dig under the lowest stones, date the carbon material trapped there. Do it so many times you get a huge number of data points. Stick it in the gatekeepers faces. Remember when Gobekli was found, the gatekeepers kept saying its not a civilization, its just a hunter gatherer temple site. It has no significance. Our gatekeeper civilization theory about agriculture first is not wrong. Our Mesopotamia theory about origins of civilization is not wrong.
The Tepes in Turkey are proof there were advanced civilizations that were not hunter gatherers during the last ice age. Actual fricking proof. Miniwannabeman needs to apologize to Graham Hancock. Zahi in Egypt is a gatekeeper and a fraud. People like miniwannabeman are nothing more than click bait showmen. He does some great work on obvious forgeries, but then shoots himself in the foot when he uses methods in one video to show a forgery but doesn't acknowledge that is the same kind of evidence used to date ancient egypt, the pyramids and the sphinx. One single poorly drawn inscription, not even carved, but light scratched on a hidden place, only a single person found and he used it to make himself famous and rich. He was a treasure hunter, and a fraud. Yet, nobody wants to admit that.
The technology exists to overwhelmingly date every single ancient site. Why isn't it being done? It was used at the Tepe's in Turkey. Which of course blackened the eye of every mainstream gatekeeping archaeologist on the planet. Every single basic archaeology course needs to be rewritten now. Yet, nobody is talking about that fact. Why? Mesopotamia is not the cradle of civilization. Farming and agriculture are not needed to form civilization. The Tepe's are proof those mainstream gatekeepers were not only wrong, but so wrong they should all have to pay back their money.
So its great you are a fan girl and miniwannabeman has done some good videos about obvious forgeries, but he also has really stepped in it many times. Its why I generally stay away from all his videos except the obvious forgery videos.
If he wants to do a video on ancient egypt perhaps he can do one on why the oldest finds in Egypt had granite lathed vases, bowls and diamond cut sarcophagus and boxes. Please show us how the older Egypt lost all that technology and became lesser. Does it have to do with losing touch with the ancient lost civilization of Yam in the Sahara? You know where proto heiroglyphs came from. Yet the Sahara is not explored.
So I expect much more from a professional expert like miniwannabeman. You can't claim one type of evidence is fraud in one case, but then use worse evidence to base your entire understanding of Egypt and its dating using the same. Graham admits he is not an archaeologist, he is an investigative reporter. He asks questions. Sometimes very pertinent questions. I do not believe in ancient aliens, etc. But the facts for advanced ancient civilizations is now overwhelming with the discovery of not only Gobekli, but Karahan and all the other Tepes. That was a civilization. It was large, covered more than a single city, more than a single settlement. Which disproves so many mainstream gatekeeper theories it makes it laughable when someone tries to smear Graham Hancock. I don't buy into everything Graham has to sell either, he is a journalist selling a product. He also does not do a great job at presentation and leaves out some of the better things available to use as evidence or even as questions. But just like Graham, miniwannabeman is a journalist selling a product. His motives are just as questionable as Graham's.
Enjoy digesting that.

My background: Newspaper Journalist/Writer/Photographer/Editor/Historical Games Proofreader/Editor
I don't have a degree in Archaeology but have enough credits it could have been a minor, I also was part of grant writing for digs, working at digs, etc. Nothing special just local mining ghost towns and cemeteries of the US old west area in the mountains of Northern California and Western Nevada. Nothing special, nothing noteworthy and nothing published. Our biggest find was a bag full of silver dollars. Mainly we just attempted to document old cemeteries before the information wore off the tombstones and markers. Although I have literally tens of thousands of words published of my work as a journalist. From local news to local sports. But that was 30+ years ago and now I am disabled, sad lonely and watching videos like this one and hoping to see integrity in a scholarly interest. Yet people are people and most take the easy route and go for the easy money. :)

This OP just made the dumbest statement ever made! They are obviously not paying attention at all. They come out of their TH-cam delusion for 5 minutes, watch 2 or 4 videos made by idiots, and think they know it all. Complete morons.
Ok. From now on, every video of Milo touring an archeological site MUST contain several minutes of Milo just gushing over the awesomeness of the things he finds on the ground 😂 😊
And occasional cutaways to him tripping over it ;)
Yes please
People like you and PBS Eons are making it harder and harder not to pursue my growing dreams of paleontology/archeology. It's just inspiring what the soil beneath our feet still has to teach us and it never fails to move me deeply. I've only recently discovered your channel, but my binges of your content has been such a treat. Thank you and your team for all your hard work!
How does this have only 20 likes and 0 replies despite being posted a month ago wtf 💀
The care you take to humanize the people who lived in these places is so important! Reminding us that they were real people with personal and community lives brings so much more meaning to everyone we discover
In you are two wolves, one is a very serious archaeologist who doesn't put up with ancient aliens BS. The other is a child who really likes rocks and old things.
I love watching this, please keep making this kind of content and consider sending this as a pilot to the history channel.
Well said.
He’s definitely one of a kind and does these fascinating topics justice
It's not a reality TV show so history won't take this on. Sending people to remote locations takes a lot of money, recording stupid people doing stupid things takes almost no money and still gets views and ratings.
Speak slower better.
The one you feed
Your joy during the episode made me almost cry and as a Turkish person thank you for sharing these immense findings with the rest of the world.
👏 ❤❤
Yes! I just discovered this channel, he explains archeology in a very easy and funny manner.
You have 333 likes so I'm here to give this a 3rd reply. Angel's number baybee
Environmental HydroGeologist here, and lover of ancient history. You have great hair!
As a Turkish person you should be ashamed of stealing so much land from Armenia!
Milo's pure unbridled enthusiasm makes this so so much better. Its such a raw emotion that's very rarely found anymore. Thank you for sharing it with us Milo, so much.
It would be so effortless to learn from this guy in a classroom, you can practically see and feel (even through a screen) the passion he has for what he does and what he explains.
And he’s got some sass!
Your archaeology documentaries are excellent. And only getting better! I've been trying to get friends and family to find this corner of youtube, where educated and thoughtful professionals provide more systematic and rigorous content when compared to the average deluge of misinformation.
I hope this content is something that interests them! I try to strike a balance between the dusty academic shit and the fun pop exploration. The production value wouldn’t be possible without my incredible team
@@miniminuteman773it sure interests me🤣 but I'ma also kinda a history nut, so it's just awesome to watch!
Thank you for your service lol, also Milo's sass is legendary

I was actually there in October 2020. A local guide was telling us how archaeologists had found a place even older than Gobekli Tepe and it was called Karahan Tepe and if we wanted to go there and visit it. He was a bit sketchy and we doubted him so we declined, now after seeing all the buzz about it I’m super sad we didn’t go. Great work though Milo, once again.
Damnnnnnn broooooo I’d be crying for yearssss😂😂😂😂
oooooof
While it may have been a missed opportunity, never dismiss intuition. If you got a sketchy vibe, listen. For all you know he was using “real world recent findings” to get you to a secluded area to do lawd kno wut!!
Life is long, perhaps you’ll get another shot, where the sketchy feeling doesn’t happen.
Bro you could have googled it

As a Turkish archaeologist I was really intrigued to watch this site since there have been some issues with some of the t pillars recently. Also, the bone shard seems like a deer radius fragment but I've been a bit rusty on my bones lol
What kind of issues with the t pillars? 🤔
@@Casmael01 oh, there were some news about the pillar "penis" being broken. Turns out they were already found broken, not done by anyone. It's not that surprising to see people damaging artifacts because of their modern ethical values. Luckily, it wasn't the case here but at the time I wrote this comment it wasn't clear.

@@KasumiRINA As far as I can gather there was some concern over some statue being 'censored' by having the penis broken off by archaeologists, but it was actually found broken and reassembled like the majority of statues that old.
Milo’s statement towards the end about feeling like he lived at a time when there was nothing more to be discovered, is so reminiscent of statements made by various people in the late 1800s and early 1900s - the feeling that all the corners of the map had been colored in, that it was a peak of a golden age of discovery - only to find that there was MUCH more to be uncovered.
I think it’s a great learning experience that, any time someone thinks this way, child or adult alike, we need to remind ourselves that we are ALWAYS precursors to a new perception-destroying discovery just on the horizon.
Don't wanna miss this. I'll just wait here for the next 42 hours.

It's very fascinating that in Georgia, we have an Medieval Epic poem literally called "The Knight in the Panther's Skin", but the translation can be interpreted to Leopard's skin too. Also, Georgia is a neighboring country with Turkey
Shota Rustaveli, I remember reading it in Ukrainian translation.
Oh that's pretty interesting.
Well panther is just panthera which is just panthera pardus which is I guess the Latin name for leopard, panthera being the genus. Tiger, lions, leopard and jaguars are all panthera and kind of all panthers.
The georgian story was made in the 12th century and at the start of it the author says something along the lines of “ this Persian story i turned into a poem”, this could mean literal Persian story or just the author describing it as unique or weird with the word Persian. Quiet interesting
I feel like the Caucasus Mountains are hiding old sites as well. That and Central Asia need to be explored and excavated, something tells me there are sites as old as this one just waiting to be discovered.
I love how happy he is every time he finds something. Honestly I started watching him because of a brief ancient civilization hyper fixation but now I just watch him cause he makes me happy
I haven't seen much of Milo yet, but can we all just appreciate how flipping adorable he is? Like, his excitement over that handaxe was one of the cutest things I've seen in a long time! This man is so cute, don't let anything happen to him ever, the world needs him!
You are ground breaking in the world of archeology. I am not educated past highschool but i love listening to smart individuals whose passion is contagious as yours. I can see you being a once in a lifetime type individual that will bridge the gap of educational content and entertainment. Keep doing you man.
Well said! I wholeheartedly agree!
There’s a joke in there about an archaeologist being ground-breaking.
Agreed! Although my education ended with highschool, I've had a lifelong interest in archaeology and history, and have spent my life educating myself. I used to love all the archaeology/history content on the History Channel, A&E (which used to stand for Arts and Entertainment), and TLC (which, once upon a time was The Learning Channel), and it's so frustrating to see how much those channels have changed....all that quality content replaced with wall-to-wall reality shows.
I'm so glad that Milo decided to give YT a try, and while it's been amazing to see how fast his channel has grown, it's really no surprise. Clearly there are many people out there who have been craving intelligent archaeology/history content, presented with passion and humour. I love that he was given the chance to go to Türkiye, and give us this amazing series. I can't wait to watch his series on Peru.
Part of me feels strange getting so excited about rocks sticking out of some field in Türkiye, but people like you are perfect examples of why more folks should get excited about things like these. Every pillar coming out of the ground, every channel, all the little traces of human work being done are just so mindblowing to think about.
That 12,000 years ago, people like you and me sat down and worked there, spent their days making progress bit by bit to achieve things that mattered to them. I can't wait to see what else might be waiting down there.
True, like tired of working in the sun, worrying about personal stuff and making silly jokes at times.
But they probably also wondered if someone else was out there in the night sky doing the same. I love thinking about that stuff.
True. Imagining how great work they've been doing or some other time like perhaps tired of working in the sun, worrying about personal stuff and making silly jokes at times.
But they probably also wondered if someone else was out there in the night sky doing the same. I love thinking about that stuff.
I'm here because I saw a meme about the Florida Bog People. I TH-camd it and found Milo. I decided I needed more of this guy and here I am. My god, have I been missing out. This guy is good for my soul and for my brain. Thanks for all the good feels my dude. Your enthusiasm really makes the content.
Milo, your child like excitement and fascination with every aspect of your chosen path is endearing and makes you so much more human than many of the people I have known over the years who have chosen to endeavor similar paths. I take much pleasure in watching your videos irrespective of the subject matter.
I just wanted to drop a ‘I’m so proud of you’ here.
Knew since I was 5 that I wanted to be an archaeologist. Got my B.A. in 2013. Aaaand life apparently had other plans. So while chronic illness keeps me from, well, honestly most stuff I intended to do, it’s so refreshing and heartwarming to see your videos. And to watch your channel grow, your production keep getting better, and to see someone putting out solid information in the oft misunderstood field. It’s so important to bring academic knowledge to the people for a number of reasons.
It’s relieving to see, engaging to watch, and provides a little ‘vicarious living’.
So I just wanted to say thank you, I’m proud of you, and that our field couldn’t ask for a better spokesperson.
P.S. having held a flaked tool in the field that was just sitting on the ground for 9-10k years- yeah it’s an absurd, incredible moment. Just trying to wrap one’s head around that immense span of time that somehow allowed this connection between the maker and oneself is a complete mindf***.
I’m sorry life shat on your dream!
Chronic illness SUCKS!😢
You'll be there one day, chief
Chronic illness be damned!!! I spit on it!
you could still be an archeologist in your imagination just like us.... we/I also loved that field since getting to know about Egypt but we never have the chance,
I'm extremely happy to see somebody, who is this excited about the history of humanity itself, to be treated this professionally and to be getting the opportunity to spread this genuine love for our peoples.
Rather than some pencil pushing, number crunching, "its my job" kind of person, I mean. You truly feel the passion and respect for these cultures, and I couldn't ask for a better host.
I just want to thank you for your channel. The importance of your message and work in our civic and intellectual and cultural spheres is just inestimable. Thank you. ❤
I am so glad I stumbled on your channel. I love your energy and love of history. Common sense and fact based. I love it.
Something broke inside me when you picked up a hand stone axe from the ground, almost randomly, so to speak, in this empty, stone landscape. An amazing, almost spiritual experience, I imagine. You can consider yourself privileged to have been able to visit such an extraordinary place, which is one of the origins of our common civilization.
I would be stuck at that spot picking up and analyzing every pebble and imagining what they could be. I'd never get to see the rest of the site if someone didn't guide me. It's amazing to see what ancient people built, but even more incredible to hold it in your hand and look at it up close.
well said, man.
As a kid I loved archeology and you're right, it has long been presented as if everything has already been discovered. Thanks for getting me excited about archeology again.
This is absolutely inspiring. You are changing lives, Milo! Keep adventuring. I hope to tour with you in the future!❤
This historical content is actually good, thank you for providing this tour to us, I am honored to find your channel. I can't wait for the archeologists to complete this site.
I really hope channels like this along with people like Anton Petrov begin to kick off an era on the internet of not just news sites reporting very surface level information that they still find a way to get wrong, but of actual science communicators working to educate the world about the truly incredible discoveries from all around the world in every field of science because as things like this Türkiye series show, the amount of absolutely remarkable things that most of the world never gets to hear about is astronomical.
Petrov is cool. I'm glad he,7DOS,Prof Dave, Forrest V,AronRa, and others are around.
This is the sort of thing I had hoped years ago to see on TLC. I remember in grade school my social studies teacher telling us that Egypt was the oldest civilization but it didn't get sophisticated until the Greeks got there and that is when it blossomed. Her words not mine. That was over 50 years ago. Imagine my shock to learn about the Sumerians a decade or so later.
Ah-another wonderful person-one of a million ❤
Most of the world doesn't hear about it because they don't care. Don't confuse the fact that they are willing to sit through a 20 minute video once in a while with caring! They wouldn't bother seeking this info out, even if their life depended on it. Americans are idiots, and they're as lazy as hell.
I'm glad you and others have spoken well of Anton Petrov. I've seen some of his thumbnails but I keep getting ancient aliens and giants endlessly. So now I can move him out of the Hancock adjacent box. I have not had the time to look into the guy. Thanks. A Hancock fan I work with recommended him and well that was a pretty big mark against him. But I guess even a well meaning but deluded friend can be right now and again.
I'm a deep fantasy Nerd. I've read hundreds upon hundreds of books just in the past 3 years. And the idea of a lost super powerful civilization is ever present, and is my most favourite trope.
That being said, the sheer scale and significance of a structure like karahan tepe is so much grander than any of those fantasy civilizations.
These were people who lived on this planet in a different age. They hunted, ate, loved and created art. We have more information to work with. But those people were just as capable as we are today. And that just makes me feel things

@@cattymajiv They're saying Milo has inspired an interest in ancient history that they didn't originally have, which is something I can attest to personally.

I've always been more into the abstract-ish behavioral science and neurology side of things, but Milo's content has really added to my understanding, and even tho I really didn't care before, I'm invested now. I imagine OP's experience is similar.
This video about mostly unexplored archeological site reminded me of the village my grandparents live in. It is also an ancient place dating back to almost 5000 years(and still settled). But no one ever seriously researched the place. I've heard stories from grandparents about the accidental finds they dug out while working in the yard. They have found a whole big pot, 2 sets of mortar ans pestle and human bones. Inspired by those stories me and my brother also found many pottery pieces by digging at most 30 cm, even finding them on the ground of our garden :)

So incredible. I’ve been saying for a while that we’re on the cusp of an explosion of discoveries about the ancient world that will rewrite human history.
Yep, civilization is much, much older than what we have been told. There has been a fair amount of suppression of information that contradicts the mainstream narrative. It is amazing that they are actually releasing this information that will most definitely ruin the present paradigm.

I could listen to you all day! Thanks for making me a little smarter...😊
So refreshing to see a bright, young, knowledgeable person on TH-cam. TY
The other thing to consider is the 12,000 year time period likely dates to around the time the place was buried. The time it took to build this, the process by which people got to that point, and the era this place thrived might stretch locations like this even further.
i was thinking the same thing
Damn, it's even harder to wrap my brain around such an immense length of time and wonder just how much longer it could possibly be, but also that does make sense lol
I need this-
And by the way I’m going to study archeology because of your work at a great university in Germany, so thanks for your work!
What university will you study at? Because I thought about doing the same and would like to know my options :)
I'll be studying history in Germany, thinking about changing to archeology later. I want to study either really new stuff or really old stuff :)
Thank you Milo. This was incredible work.
So glad to have found you! This is excellent!
16:35 “it’s wild to think about what could be discovered”
every-time milo says that i can’t help
but think to myself
“probably more stones” 😭😭
As long as they're neat stones I'm excited
it's just another penis room
Congrats on hitting one million subs! Hopefully having hit that milestone, it will be prove worthwhile to have someone create and time subtitles based off of your script, as TH-cam's auto-generated subtitles are helpful but far from perfect. I and others of your hearing-impaired community would surely be immensely grateful! 🙌❤

your excitement and passion is contagous. `seeing you get all gitty gets me pumped to leard more.
Super video! Your videos are just getting better and the first one I saw was great.
It's heartwarming how you can feel Milo's pure happiness while being on such an amazing discovery. You can really confidently say that he is Very Passionate about his work which makes him that much more amazing.
Milo reminds me a little of Steve Irwin. They are both superb, captivating educators, passionate about their field, and they both brought a a lighthearted silliness to the world classroom. Well done Milo. ❤
I never thought about that! ARCHEOLOGY STEVE IRWIN MILO ROSSI FTW
It’s how contagious their excitement is. You can’t help getting swept up in their enthusiasm
A big Thanks to the small team who've made this! Enjoyed it very much and will re-watch it.
You are the biggest dag ever! (Australian colloquial compliment there.) Your enthusiasm is so infectious. I am really looking forward to you getting back to Turkey to document the development of excavations and what comes from them. This is REALLY exciting stuff.
I'm hyped! I don't work in the field or anything of the sort, it's just good content and I love seeing Milo do what he's been aspiring to do!
I'm generally pretty quiet here but know I'm here to support.
Come on down to Karahan Tepe. We got:
- big hill with good view of huntable game
- water tank
- hand axes manufacturing
- leopards
- some houses
- The Penis Room
Your joy and enthusiasm during this video actually brought tears to my eyes.
Absolutely wonderful.
I love you, ancient humans ♥️
Fascinating video. I need to go back and watch all your Tas Tepler videos.
17:30 "...Henry, get over here. Touch this rock."
"Rock. Touch."
💀 I love the funny and relatable non sequiturs. Milo and his team are great!
I was just reading a book which used these very places as (one of several) examples of seasonally occupied festival sites, and I was a little excited because I'd first heard of them from this channel. That book (The Dawn of Everything) is only three years old but already predates the discovery of dwellings at Karahan Tepe, and it's wild to think how fast moving these sites in particular are. It's a similar feeling to first studying anthropology a decade ago and every other week the professor showing a newly discovered stage in human evolution that had been in the news. It's a very fast moving dicipline for something studying things which have often been (literally) set in stone for thousands of years.
Hey Milo, been watching you for some time now and it's really amazing to know that we are still learning new things about our species and our origins. I love archaeology and history as well and your channel is the best thing I have discovered. In youtube there's more conspiracy channels saying that "Big Archaeology" hates changing the status quo while here you are having fun and learning new things and teaching us essentially.
you are as amazing as the sites you investigate!!!! excitement just sort of oozes from your being. wish i had found your site earlier. since i spent my formative years in Venezuela (i am now 80) i would have gone to Peru in a heartbeat....and stayed! thank you.
Milo succeeded in the “don’t say Graham Hancock’s name for a whole video” challenge.
Hi Milo, greetings from Türkiye! Thanks for sharing your knowledge about Göbeklitepe and Karahantepe. You're absolutely right about naming this civilization. They deserve a name and acknowledgement of their culture.
My humble suggestion is Mezotepe civilization. Combination of Mezopotamya and Tepe.
The word “mesopotamia” is formed from the ancient words “meso,” meaning between or in the middle of, and “potamos,” meaning river. Tepe means hill in Turkish language. This way we can combine ancient and modern names that represent 12 thousand years of history.
I liked your suggestion. Mesotepe civilizations!
Love the content. Interesting and grasping while still light and funny. Keep it up👊🏻💪🏻
This is so amazing that you were able to come to this site!! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!!!
Now this is what the history channel should be! Not infinite seasons of oak island mysteries where they say the same stuff over and over
1 million is so unbelievably deserved ❤ this is real archeology. Obsessed with watching these videos - every rewatch something new makes sense in my brain and that’s such a cool feeling - keep it up and don’t forget about us early ones when you become a big(ger) name
Milo you're killing me with these, I need the video now ! 😭
I'm so excited to have found your content. I will follow your channels and adventures as long as you continue to make them.
Thank you for taking up the mantle conspiracy debunker, and history explainer. You are a hero of mine.
Thank you! it is a pleasure to watch what you make. a logical mind is a serious joy!
This series sparks so much joy in me, because I used to feel exactly like Milo said he felt like at the end of the video. This channel rekindles and feeds my love for history, and the mystery of the past.
Highly anticipating the Peru videos!
Major props to the music choices, camera work, and scripting in this! I got actual chills toward the end when we saw all those hills and learned that 95 percent(!!!!!) is still not excavated yet. I feel like a little kid again watching this series, just bouncing in my seat about how fucking rad archaeology is. And somehow each video is better than the last.
You've outdone yourself again, Milo and team! Congrats on hitting 1 million, I can't wait to see the Peru series!
Saw your shorts and found your channel .... THANK YOU
This is my first video of yours that I have watched. Definitely subscribed. This is impressive. Well done.
Imagine if it was a modern city being excavated, the tops of Walmarts would be proof of more digging needed, and someone would be amazed at finding an iphone or aquafina bottle. Our modern castoffs just dont carry the same weight, and inspiration of the ancient cultures! Thank you for one of the more honest documentaries about our past i have seen in quite awhile!
That's capitalism.
There is a book that hypothesises about future civilisations digging up a diner ( or the like ) and making assumptions about the society based on their finds ... Could it be a ceremonial site ? one of religious significance ? Did they pray to the Juke box ...
@@weehudyy it is a ceremonial site, to gluttony and consumerism which is our religion.
'tops of walmarts' lol. that's what modern capitalist culture has come to, fucking consumer relics. you know we have also built culturally valuable buildings. finding the top of sydney opera house, for example, would be amazing, assuming it would survive. but rest assured, in 12000 yrs there will - thankfully - not be a single trace of any walmarts left.
I love the infectious enthusiasm just being there brings you. Glad you got to document this slice of history, and look forward to seeing more of what you do
This video is amazing. You should definitely do a comeback to this after a couple of years to explain how research of the area has progressed. Should the chance to cover it ever arises again of course.
quality of videos has gone up so much in the past year. good work man
I spent 6 weeks in Turkey (Now known as Türkiye) on a study abroad trip. We went to countless excavation sites and many historic grounds. Visiting Ephesus was a highlight for me. Seeing their library that was well known for being the largest at the time and the living quarters that are still be excavated. Termesos was a highlight on that trip as well. The amphitheater they built into the top of the mountain was amazing to witness in person. It was quite the hike to get there though. They ended up abandoning Termesos due to a massive earthquake that pummeled their aqueducts and made living there extremely difficult, if not impossible. The work it would’ve taken to construct such a place is difficult to imagine. Turkey is an amazing country and it has so many places worth visiting. Just traveling along the western coast could keep you busy for months!
Call it Anatolia. Turk ancestral home is around the Gobi.
@@MarcoBonechiyeah except in this case it's Kurdistan
and indo-european homeland is around ukraine, so should we call italy, france, spain, england etc something else?@@MarcoBonechi
The most stupid comment I've ever heard. Open the damn map and say out loud which country that is. Yes, most people have not been able to accept this for 1500 years, but whether you like it or not, it is the Turkish homeland. And the graves of millions of people who do not want to believe it are here.
@@MarcoBonechi
@@MarcoBonechiThe owners of Anatolia are now Turks. When will you accept this?
This is the kind of content that Nat- Geo, Discovery, and the History Channel should be showing.
One of the best videos. You are really in Joy.
I just found your channel, and I really appreciate your sentiment about how much there is still to discover.
I too, grew up feeling like history was whatever was printed in books and that's all there was to know. As an adult seeking to educate myself I have come to realize how much we don't know, how much there is left to discover, and that in 5, 10, 20 years archaeologists and scientists will have drastically altered how we view human history, and to me that is incredibly inspiring!
Keep up the good work!
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 who knew that the world needed a well researched and entertaining videoproduction about archeology! Good luck in the future, this is one of the channels where I watch every video as soon as i see it released because it's always interesting
Thats one cute Archeological boy there
Happy to have found this channel.
I was there last year and the site had been open for a little while in spite of ongoing excavations. It is, indeed a wonderful site and truly more wonderful things to discover.. I believe there is also a visitors centre there now so they are definitely expecting a few tourists. Interesting to compare Göbekli Tepe with Karahan Tepe
Milo really brings a fresh energy to his videos that most archeological documentaries lack. I hope he keeps that spark through his career.
I always respect someone who says "We just dont know" when describing archeological sites. One of the biggest problems of discussing history is everyone wants to talk in definitive terms.
So glad to find you. ❤
Dude, you are a very talented archaeologist. Thanks for this video.
You’re changing my brain
