Thank you ❤💯💯👍 This is truly an great video. I don't think there is any other person who lifted a finger on you tube regarding this. Thank you for your effort to spread knowledge.
Gah! TH-cam didn't notify me when this came out! Thank you for the lovely tour of Rome following the trail of the obelisks! 👍👍❤❤ I actually wanted to do that when I went there many many years ago, but I wasn't in charge of the itinerary, so it didn't happen.
Absolutely love this video. I'm working on my bachelor's thesis about Egyptian obelisks in Rome, so your video is just the deus ex machina I needed. Amazing content and will definitely use this for my thesis. Hope to see more of this in the future!
@@ancientsitesgirl I will be in Rome myself from the 17th untill the 21st of February. Have been rewatching this video over and over again, makes me extremely excited! Also - great video on the Forum Romanum! Fingers crossed that your channel grows exponentially, you deserve it!
I appreciate the amount of research and the time you invest with your videos. I can tell you are passionate about history. I'm headed to Turkey this summer, at a small tepe site to do remote sensing archaeology. This has inspired me to document more of my travels and maybe show it to YT.
Turkey is wonderful, maybe I will come back to Turkey in the summer. Of course, the east of Turkey with all these Neolithic flavors is extremely tempting. Good luck!✌
It would appear that Sextus V was quite the visionary in placing these obelisks in geometric lines across the Papal city, Irena; a smart manouevre. One wonders the (relatively) well known edict: "To the victor belong the spoils of the enemy" ~ William Marcy, an American Eighteenth Century politician (as memory serves). Did Augustus retrieve these monumental structures egregiously, or was a pact made between conqueror & the defeated, or, a reciprocal arrangement of respect created, that satisfied both parties ? In regard to the 'copied' Egypto-Roman obelisks, one of my country's most famous sons, Oscar Wilde observed, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.." Would you concur ? I have visited Rome only twice, & there appear to be a number of multicultural artefacts (I suppose, as with many conquering nations); I can only reach the conclusion that they have the lion's share of the goodies.....Wonderful presentation, as ever - Thank you !!
I just went to Italy for the first time and spent 3 days in Rome. Of course I encountered several of these obelisks and was awe-struck. I didn't see them all so I'll have to come back!!! Thanks for the great video.
Rome would not be the same without the ancient obelisks they stole from Egypt. Not only them, but the amount of treasures that this city has from the extense cultures that they manage during the long era of the emperors. Thank you Irena for the great showing of the Roman city, your friend in Key West Ingrid Holm.
3 quick comments. 1, it's too bad those sculptures are on the roof tops, it would be wonderful to get a 360' view. 2nd, it hilarious that some of the Roman made Obelisks inscriptions were upside down 🤣🤣, 3rd, I think some of the base Sculptures are more impressive than the Obelisk itself. Great episode 🤘😁🖖🇨🇦
Great video. Ramses is AbRAham who is Constantine and King James, Seti I is the most high, Thutmose III is the real King David. I was Hatshepsut. All of them are alive. The twins were mine and also the Vatican Obelisk, the piazza de popolo too. I was Mary, twice and Bathsheba, many characters in the Bible like them. Ramses ii is the historical Jesus. Explains all the obelisks in Rome 😊We’ve all been battling for humanity for 1000s of years.
What was the significance of obelisks? Why did they spend so much effort to move them from Egypt to Rome? Also in the last 2 centuries Egyptian obelisks were moved to Paris, London and New York. Doesn't seem like a coincidence.
The Etruscans were the natives of Italy which held onto Greek tradition and pantheon. I feel like roman adaption and use of things like this is kind of like an homage to their heritage. If anything its a engineering feat, like the arch... a way of portraying a cultures capability and success, more so than any in depth religious meaning...However, refer to spirit science and other channels for information as to the possible metaphysical value of structures like an obelisk and how they affect energy flow. If a society knew and implemented these things, the obelisk would be there way of attempting to use sacred geometry, crystal, and stone, to harmonize the energy of the local area,, ie harmonize the populace.
OMG! How did they transport these things and stand them up on the pedestal's, also considering they are made of really hard stone and weigh tons? How are they still standing now? You would think they would just fall down in winds because they're so tall, I'm so amazed by this. The hieroglyphs are carved so deep, that must have needed really hard tools to do this. The Roman's did very well to copy them, you sounded so funny and sweet when you said woopsi to there upside down accidents, made me chuckle. These projects must have been so hard to do, I cant even imagine what they would have had to do to achieve this. As always I loved your video, BIG👍's up from me. You're 🥇😉 Thanx'Peace'Goddess 🧡🧡🧡
It seems that nothing was impossible for the Romans! I bet they used Egyptian engineering. Most obelisks in Rome were re-raised and relocated by the popes of the 17th century (earthquakes are quite common in Rome). no column in Rome or Baalbek can compare to the Lateran obelisk of Tuthmosis III! THANKS MARC ❣️
Why are the idols worshipped by Egyptians many years through the ideologies of Nimrod are still in Vatican...??? Top secrets remember the dragon, the woman and its power in the bible.
@@ancientsitesgirl all architectural structures of antiquity, including cities, were built by the ancestors of the current Deutsche, what the official "history" says is a lie and falsification of the past
What’s the mystery?? 😳😳🤔🤔 Rome conquered Egypt and then copied some art , and or took them to Rome from Egypt 🤷♂️🤷♂️. Still interesting story from u 😊😊😊

Thank you very much! Unfortunately, I didn't manage to film two more obelisks (including the small-Egyptian Matteiano)
Bravo Irena! Keep up the good tour images and have a happy new year!
Thanks! Happy new year!
Rome and its fountains are quite an attraction :) Great episode 👏

Indeed, the Romans, unlike the Egyptians, were delighted with everything foreign. I see humility in this, perhaps it helped them build their empire.
The obelisks were already there......big cover up with our History
Really great episode!
Thanks

Egypt calls for the return of the Rosetta Stone from Britain to Egypt😇

See my series proving the British Empire wasn't the biggest.
See my series proving that Jews invented Islam.
Maybe soon I will see it in Giza👍

Something that will never be revealed to us not in their club.

To be honest, I've never dealt with this topic... however, I intend to visit several Etruscan necropolises

Guess Rome didnt have to make any golden rats and hemroids.
We are SUN WORSHIPPERS, the Obelisk is a ray of the SUN, its all pointing to the important of SIrius and her 3 SUNS, the trinity. RA, ISIS, AMMUN
