It's not Byzantium and it's definitely a lot older than two thousand years old. They can't really date properly because there is nothing to carbon date except the rocks. I've seen one man studying it had a geologist In one room saying it's at least 5 thousand years old and could date anywhere to 40 thousand years old. They just don't know there is no evidence it was built then just people talked about finding it and inhabiting two thousand years ago.
In 2008 I travelled to India and we spent a lot of time near the southwestern tip where the Romans and orhers came to trade. I was fascinated by this, because though Ive been an ancient history buff for many years I didn't know about it. There were Christians and Jews living there in ancient times.
There are pre colonial christian and jewish communities in india. I wonder if any of them have a direct link to the christians and jews of that period.
@@Marvin-sj9lr yeah many of them actually do, we tend to forget how connected the world was even in those times. Like one of the 12 apostles (Thomas) went to India and spread Christianity there, Christianity in India is older than most of europe. So fascinating
Voices of the past have a episode talking about Roman's who traveled down the Nile to modern day Somalia to trade with folks from India, its worth a watch for sure
I'm surprised Akkad the capitol of Sargon's Akkadian empire wasn't mentioned. Despite numerous records about it including a fairly detailed location description it has never been found.
I imagine so many cities and civilizations have been completely destroyed and leveled to the ground by warmongering megalomaniacs through time. There has been one after the other through recorded history. We are still doing it. I think thats how we have been living since we started dominating the planet, maybe even longer
Yes, but I'm also happy that redundant information wasn't shared. That one is probably the one that comes to mind for most people if you're asking for a lost city that can be found
William beckett I was about to comment exactly that. I am a fan of ancient Mesopotamian history like you can judge by my youtube handle. I'm surprised someone else remembered akkad,a city ruled by Nimrod 👍
Also, the water impounded by man made dams cover former river cities. Many pre-historic towns, no doubt, were covered below the Black sea and the Mediterranean sea due to global warming ten thousand years ago. Before 12,000 years ago the Black and Mediterranean seas were just lakes.
Much of Hellenistic and Roman Alexandria is under the sea. A potential interesting find would be the capital settlement of the Huns under Atilla somewhere in Pannonia.
1:50 Imagine going into your cellar drilling a hole to screw a shelve to the wall and finding an ancient lost underground city with 18 levels for 20'000 people 😂
Another one that's kind of fascinating is old sarai, the capital of the golden horde. It was a HUGE city and it only dissapeared relatively recently. Despite that the city has never been definitely located. Straddling more into semimythological territory, the city of tratessos, said to be somewhere in southwestern iberia, has never been found. That is despite the many attempts at locating it. These two cities actually have something in common which makes their search very hard. They were fluvial cities in shallow terrain close to a significant river delta. As such, both ruins have likely long been buried by sediment.
I seem to remember that a slew of lost cities were found under the canopy of the jungle of the Yucatan peninsula.... Even though that's in the Americas, I think it still counts. Btw, I marvel at your ability to find sponsors for your vids, and I usually find even your self-made advertising quite amusing.
I remember hearing of one where they found bodies (human and animal) at the bottom of a pit or well. As we know now in modern times, most water connects somewhere, so they think the area was abandoned an forgotten after the water network became tainted by the rotting getting into the drinking and bathing water. The reason they think it was abandoned rather than everyone suddenly died or were kicked out, was something to do with the artefacts they found combined with a lack of bodies (so not a massacre or mass dying). Like there was evidence people packed up what was important, but also buried caches of things like pottery, cloth, gems and metals, etc near homes like they planned to return. If you're in a hurry to leave, you don't usually have time to make a literal nest egg. Fascinating stuff
A lost city that could very probably be found but isn't because it isn't safe, is Washukanni, the capital of Mitanni, a bronze age Mesopotamian superpower of Hurrian language with indo-aryan elites. Archeologists know the general area where it is located, and have identified some big mounds that may be it or another lost city, but it would be located in current Kurdish controlled separatist region of Syria. Too problematic to excavate. It's also pretty much on the border between Turkey and Syria, in a kurdish majority region.
Hello! Do you think you could make a video on ancient sleeping habits?! I love watching your videos as I fall asleep, as I find them calm and fascinating. ❤
Wonderful video, as always. Well done! Your output is always greatly appreciated and is a refreshing academic perspective, especially when so much “historical” content on this platform is created by untrained amateurs. Thank you for your work.
Great video! Sometimes to fill time I go down 2 cool lists on Wikipedia, they are ‘Roman cities and towns by modern country’ and ‘Roman buildings and structures by modern country’. Wikipedia usually has latitude and longitude coordinates with each article where you can look at the sites on Google Earth through Street view. It’s even more immersive with VR. 😅
Indeed, in guatemala is the greatest and biggest city ever seen of and precolombine culter, but it is under the ground and it will take a ton of years to finally get it discovered.

Fascinating. This is the kind of information that made me fall in love with history. Your videos are very well made and interesting.

Actually we do know where Tigranocerta/Tigranakert is. The city's Armenian population was decimated and Kurdish settlers moved in. It is now the modern city of Diyarbekir. The western Armenian (dialect) name for Tigran is 'Dikran'. Dikran was corrupted into "Diyar" by Turkish and then Kurdish mispronounciation. "-bek" relates to the possession of a 'bey' a term for king. Diyarbekir = King Diyar's city. Diyar being the common Turkish/Kurdish version of Dikran. We can see that this is King Tigran's city, Tigranakert.
No, it's generally identified as the site of the ruined medieval city of Arzan (presumably the capital of the Roman Armenian Province of Arzanene) near Ikikopru on the road between Batman and Bitlis. There's even a Roman Theatre on the site you can see on Google Earth - the furthest east Roman theatre ever identified. 37.978, 41.385. Hopefully it will eventually get excavated and we will get some inscriptions.
From the drawings in the above video.....there appears to be a large number of beautiful women at these ancient sites....no wonder Ryan went into archeology.
The Past is thrilling. These people were: like us, cultured, practical, living full lives. To know them better is to understand where we came from, and where some of our beliefs/habits/inventions/Arts started. I find it particularly interesting how one Culture & it's Trade/Warfare/Religion influenced another.
Thanks for the video. I just missed Falerii. I am not sure if it classifies as a “lost city” as we know where it is, but much of its structure remains buried only seen through radars and geoscans.
Dr. G! This is you at your best. After some rather 'dry' posts if I may say so. This is fast and furious, deep and dark. Like Vivaldi played by Alexandra Conunova.
That overhead photo of pompeii blew my mind. Here lies the ruins of a city instantly buried in volcanic ash and somebody says.......hey lets build ANOTHER city here!
@@cloudmaster182 ok, fair enough. Say it gets lost to time. Why would anyone stay after rediscovery though? Ought to be deserted just on common sense, no force required.
Curious where the artwork you use came from. Those images of girls excavating Pompeii are intriguing, and the forlorn-looking women amid the ruins are haunting- are they real 19th century art or AI?
Akkad is still under the sand in Iraq somewhere, that might be the find of the century if someone fouund it considering how long people have been looking for it
I'm reminded of the lost cities of Akrotiri on the island Santorini, buried in a cataclysm but now being excavated, and the city of Uber in the far southeast of Saudi Arabia, now located, but too remote and too deeply buried by an earthquake to be recovered.
Helike has got to be the model for the destruction of Atlantis in Plato's tale. It happen during his life. I wonder why this gets no attention in the Atlantis discussion.
A lot of Sogdian cities that were recorded by Arab, Persian, and Greek travellers have yet to be rediscovered, which is a very interesting prospect as Sogdian ruins preserve a lot of art and documents. There are also long lost settlements in Mongolia that are yet to be found. The Orkhon Valley especially is mostly unexcavated and new ruins are found each year spanning from the Xiongnu to the Mongol Empire. So far one of the only recorded Orkhon Valley cities that is yet to be rediscovered is the Rouran capital of Mumo, so hopefully someone finds it soon!
Turkish guy: "Hey, what's with this void behind the wall of my cellar.." >>> Ancient underground city of 20,000 people I don't imagine he was expecting that.

The ancient all-important city of Akkad in Mesopotamia has never been identified. I personally think that it's probably because it's under Baghdad or somewhere near-by.
You forgot to mention SIRMIUM (Serbia), a capital of the Roman Empire during Tetrarchy (2.,3. and 4. century), birthplace of 8 roman emperors, place where is the second biggest roman hippodrome still un excavated. Sirmium was truly a center of Roman political and military power and an important christian city. It was destroyed in the early middle ages, and its importance is largely forgotten Today ancient Sirmium lies under the level of modern city and waits for its glory to be rediscovered.
Garrett can you tell us about ancient loot being melted and coined? How were spoils of war made into eg an aureus and were there any notable examples of historical artifacts that were destroyed for coinage?
7:49 wow... what is that piece called or who made that? It sent a shiver through me. So much is wrapped up in that image I have been staring at it and just cant seem to pull myself away from it. Its devastating and you can only imagine how many times this very image has been recreated across mankind's history.
RFID blocking is for credit card skimmers, the tracking is outside of the RFID blocking layer so you can find it if you lose it. People don't block RFID for privacy, they do it for safety.
Dont forget the original capitol of the Akkadian empire has never been found, but due its location along the euphrates river, it is possible the city couldve been washed into the river
As an archeology student, stuff like this is what makes me push forward, even though reality will probably be finding pottery shards 😂😂
But it could be something more valuable than pottery shards: Old latrines!
as a non archeology student, pottery shards sound pretty cool too
Hey don’t underestimate pottery shards I have a huge scar on my bicep caused by tackling someone into a giant ceramic pot plant.
yeah, but think that it was actually used by someone who lived back then....it really does stir the imagination.
pottery shards would be exciting! arrow heads are boring

It's not Byzantium and it's definitely a lot older than two thousand years old.
They can't really date properly because there is nothing to carbon date except the rocks.
I've seen one man studying it had a geologist In one room saying it's at least 5 thousand years old and could date anywhere to 40 thousand years old.

1:42 thats got to be the coolest, most exciting unexpected discovery you could make in your own home. It's an almost dream-like notion.
In earthquakes landslides can easily block rivers, causing lakes that destroy towns.
Worth diving every lake.
Also, the water impounded by man made dams cover former river cities.
Many pre-historic towns, no doubt, were covered below the Black sea and the Mediterranean sea due to global warming ten thousand years ago. Before 12,000 years ago the Black and Mediterranean seas were just lakes.
You would have to dredge 2000 years of sediment and debris, not just dive.
Like Wisconsin?
Ground penetrating radar and Lidar tech reveal many ancient wonders nowadays.

Much of Hellenistic and Roman Alexandria is under the sea. A potential interesting find would be the capital settlement of the Huns under Atilla somewhere in Pannonia.

I think a lot of Alexandria is just under the modern city.

It’s terrifying that an entire city could just get forgotten, even without a major desaster or anything…
