Thanks for keeping it B.C. & A.D.
Thank god you saved me as a man. I almost forgot to think about Rome today but suddenly you drop this banger of a video.
In truth we are never not thinking of Rome. 😂
Being from an old Roman family, Rome is the life.
I know, right?
What part of Sicilia is Rome in?
Ohhh. Northern New Jersey. Figures.
I love it. Livy says either Romulus ascended into heaven body and soul or he was dismembered by the senators. Even almost 3000 years ago there were skeptics.
Its great that people can go online and find such awesome media. The internet at its best.
2 HOURS!? Blessed be.
It's a crime how horribly ignored Rome's pre-Caesar story has been ignored in media. There are a ton of amazing events (like the end of the monarchy, the Sacking of the Gauls, the decemviri era, the Carthaginian wars, etc) that should get their own adaptation. Too bad the focus is always on Julius Caesar
CARTHAGO DELENDA EST
You gotta ask the Jews why they chose to do that
Not to mention Gaius and Marius and the Gracchi brothers.
You are the one ignoring media about pre-Caesar Rome. There is significant print and visual media about pre-Caesar Rome, apparently you just aren’t looking for it. Sounds like you just discovered Rome and have not even slightly looked into anything beyond the most popular media depictions. Try looking into books and academic material instead of TV shows and movies (though even within that media there is still plenty of material you clearly have not found)
@@HistoriaMoneta
There are truly some productions about pre-Caesar Rome, but most of them are 60's B-list peplum. As much, the highest productions about that Era are the BBC docu-movies about Hannibal and the Gacci Brothers
Legitimate history, intelligently presented. Also: thanks for not relying on AI to do everything for you, especially the art. AI art always looks bad, and even simple high school teachers can find flaws in AI text. Lesson: if you want something done right, you always gotta do it yourself!
I can’t even believe the talent and effort that goes into this
I swear History would have been my favourite subject in school if we had content like this
This is so true. I love history now,but, in college and high school I hated it and I think it was the delivery of the information from the schools. If we had content like this in school I may have chose a totally different career path.
No doubt.
The problem with history in school is that there's a huge amount of content and an hour, maybe two hours a week in which to teach it.
Use an hour to talk in depth about, say, the hows and whys of Caesar's Civil War and that might mean that you won't have time to address Octavian Augustus and his Civil War other than in passing.
Or you go in depth with both and more and by the end of the school year you'll only be at the Hundred Years War instead of the Fall of Constantinopole.
A high school teacher will have about 25 hours to get from Samaria to the Middle Ages , include China, Egypt, etc in those hours.
Lead a horse to a trough...and all that
So I just listen to these as a podcast, but the amount of work it must take to source all these pictures are crazy
Whats the podcast please?
It's so remarkable that Romans in their own time investigated and questioned their historic records and legends and, say, still had access to Etruscans.
It’s conspicuous that Latins and Etruscans are so culturally distinct yet so geographically close-and of course chronologically overlapped. One culture seems to have been historically expunged by the other-that is, by the succeeding one: Latin. But history is the younger cousin of myth and both are distant descendants of what actually happened.
Mythology reveals storytelling habits where some circumstance that might or might not have actually happened is explained by a tale about an origin of some ethos symbolically represented by characters convenient to the meaning of the story-or mythos-thence referred to for moral, legal, and religious guidance. Characters are cast to fit the plot, protagonists, antagonists, and other carriers of the plot probably composites of actual participants in real events, and conveniently endowed with characteristic strengths or weaknesses. Ancient Greek philosopher, Euhemeros, posited that all mythoi originate with actual events which are subsequently reworked in retelling to arrive at the moral of the story-that is, its essential jurisprudence: human participants in real events becoming recomposed as individual heroes, demigods or gods in a mythologizing process called “euhemerism”. Euhemeros’ philosophy was considered heretical by the polytheists of his day.
I think that whenever the intercourse between two cultures needs to be mythologized, the mythologizers always take the path of least resistance towards the moral of the story-which is naturally biased in favour of the storytellers’ culture, which, in the case of genocide or subjection of one side against the other, leads to a history written by the victors in which the vanquished are cast in a demeaning or demonizing way in order to justify the conquest-and thence to justify the conquerers’ order. These mythoi can be elaborate and entertaining (the Trojan War), brusque and to-the-point (captive savages, barbarians, and enemies are justly enslaved), or suppressing (The Book of Genesis)
Genesis conspicuously ignores or only hints at the inter-breedable humans available for Cain and Seth to marry. Ineed, its general thesis ignores the evolutionary descent of Homo sapiens altogether.
This narratological tactic of severing certain past events-or whole epochs of time-absolves the aggressors. In the Americas, European Christians sought to diminutize indigenous cultural and political legitimacy, first demonizing indigenous nations not-allied with the colonizers, then dismissing all indigenous peoples and their histories in order to justify seizing their lands as “terra nullius”, or “uninhabited”. Finally governments authorized the ‘killing of the Indian in the child’ by forced attendance at Indian Residential Schools.
I think the Etrustcans-who were probably more civilized than indigenous Italic tribes-were narratolgically expunged from Latin mythologization rather than cast as a vanquished and subjected or enslaved foe. Romans ended up preferring a completely concocted and plagiarized Greek myth instead of an historicized Etruscan one-despite the remoteness of the former in time and place and the concurrent co-existence of the latter.
@@geoffreydonaldson2984 I wish for you to speak more often, friend.
"How frequently do you think about the Roman empire "
Me:
Roman monarchy and republic: did he just say empire?
🌿😂🌿
When this joke got popular I was neck deep in Chinese history videos/wiki but alas Rome pulls us all in like a black hole of stereotypes
This channel deserves more 👍
Damn right!
You are so deep !
This is more like a Paul Cooper Fall of Civilizations video than the short form accounts of individuals you've posted in the past. I preferred the original form and format. It let people from the past - those precious few who could write that is - tell their stories. The viewer interpreted them. But I am certain many viewers will absolutely LOVE this change.
It brings also more money than the shorter single ones.
I really like both. I'm hoping they can continue with the individual "voices of the past" videos with a few of these long format history lessons sprinkled in.
I love videos like these. The Romans truly are a historical marvel.
Oh it's that random time of the month again where I watch a video on Rome? okay.
an amazing alt title for this video would be “Voices of the Romans”. Great video this is truly amazing work!
The time of ancient Rome may be long gone. But the more we learn about them, the more the spirit will live on. Rome is truly the Eternal city.
Funny how Rome "began" with Troy and fell with Constantinopel. Like it returned to the homeland
But those are Two different regions. So they can't both be the homeland
But did it really fall though? I postulate that it has simply amalgamated into a new form. Similar to how we retain Neanderthal DNA. Just like Greece amalgamated into Rome. Greece from Persia.
Persia from Babylon.
It fell as a political entity in 1453 bc. Until then it just shifted forms through internal revolutions or wars. @@grandsonofman
@@Orca_mammal I would argue that it "seemed" to have fallen in 1798, but it's been rejuvenating ever since 1929.
good point.
You are the best, I have been anticipating
This was beyond epic…thank you so much for well written and narrated content
Even my girlfriend doesn't mind Rome content when it's this incredibly well made. That tells you more than a million dudes watching. Duh, we all love rome. It's gotta be good and sound good for her to watch it.
Imagine if Remus had won. We'd all be talking about the empire of Rem and Remans.
I've actually been reading "Rubicon" by Tom Holland. I love roman history but I never knew how extensive and brutal the Mithraedic Wars were. He killed 80,000 Roman citizens almost overnight when he started his attacks in Asia.
Amazing content, I remember when we needed studios to make this quality work. This is better than most television these days!
What a journey of a video!
Damn it's truly the longest video for this channel ever, no wonder rendering was not behaving!
Soldiers of the Republic, Soldiers of the Empire, The beleaguered, The Victorious, LIKE THIS VIDEO FOR YOUR HONOR DEMANDS IT! SENATUS POPULESQUE ROMANUS!
Awesome, this was excellent. Cannot wait for more.
Awesome work. love the history lessons from time to time and this is a great channel for that!
The Indictment of Madduwatta describes the events involving the Attarsiya (.Mycenaean) which occurred in Western Anatolia. In the battle, the Attarsiya attacked the arzawa kingdom an forced the local warlord Madduwatta to flee. Madduwatta found refuge with the Hittite king Tudhaliya I/II who installed him as vassal ruler of Zippasla and the Siyanta River Land, territories which seem to have been located somewhere near the Arzawa Lands. The Kingdom of Arzawa was located in Western Anatolia. Its capital was a coastal city called Apasa, (Troy) which is believed to have been Ayasuluk Hill at the site of later Ephesus. The hill appears to have been fortified during the Late Bronze Age and contemporary graves suggest that it was a locally important center
Wilusa was north of Arzawa.
I am following the channel for years with history time and others, the progress is fantastic. And great applaud for the music, it is brilliant!!
Nearly at 1 million subscribers. Great work Dan.
Can we have the same video but about ancient Egypt?
You and the team are Kings and Queens.
Whew, i almost didn't think about Rome today. That was close
Gracious David, you’ve been busy!
This is probably my favourite video from this channel
Ahhhhh 🎉🎉🎉 yesssss a new video!
Just what I needed after my long day of work! 😊
Thank you so much for making this video
Thank you a lot for this. There's a very interesting series by Schwerpunkt on Archaic Rome that I strongly recommend, especially the episode on the Traditional symbology in the foundation of Rome according to Livy
bot
"Rome had been sacked."
Do you mean teabagged?
I freaking love your channel.
A more satisfying epoch than any modern day stories, save for the likes of Lord of the Rings. An absolutely riveting 2 hours. Bravo!
Awesome job🙌
You are a brilliant story teller, man. You gave me chills, et Roma Victrix!
Love the mix of mythology and archaeology to explain the story of rome
Thank you for the video boss x
Unreal documentary. Great work.
Holy damn 2 hours , what a majestic quality documentary.. thank you bro
7:50 - There is no evidence that Homer was blind, other than a line in his Odyssey spoken by a bard, who says that the best bards are the blind ones. Not exactly proof !
there's an important aspect of this question that I don't see addressed in the comments, and that's the idea of Homer as persona.
Homer the historical person may or may not have been real -- probably not -- but Homer the persona definitely was real. And Homer the persona was blind.
@@eshanroveran7850 And the SOURCE MATERIAL for this "Homer the persona" being blind... is... erm, what ?
@@TomasFunes-rt8rd it literally does not matter, the people OF THE TIME believed him to be blind, that is the traditional consensus. Not a modern one.
@@eshanroveran7850 It literally DOES matter - evidence is a good thing, in the study of history, NOT some obstacle. And all the evidence suggests that the people who believed him to be blind had merely fallen for an all-too-easy reading too much into a chance line in the Odyssey.
if history was like this in school maybe I wouldn’t’ve dropped out
shit maybe i’d be teaching history
I love it when you post
This is a lot of new information for me. thank you.
Thanks guys, this is going to be a great listen 😊
In my opinion, Remus would have understood that consecrating grounds was a super divinely sacred act to try and protect their lands and people, and interrupting a ceremony like that would challenge his rule and strength pretty harshly.
To my understanding the origins of Rome is shrouded in mystery. The literature is gone. What information given from different area giving the information. Let that sink in
How did I listen to this entire video in less than two days? Seriously though, I can’t believe you skipped over the gracchi brothers!
The vid finishes in 374 BC
@@VoicesofthePast skipped over isn’t the right word, what I mean to say is end before teaching them. It’s almost as if you don’t want to make a four hour video smh
Way cool! Such a good explanation of the facts as we know them. Would love to learn more about how the republic evolved into the empire from your channel.
An epic video! Thanks!
Fantastic. Thanks
Ill fall asleep easy for the next few weeks! Thanks!
Man I love Roman history almost as much as WWII history
It would be 1300-1250 BCE as the start with our blessed forefather Aeneas.
Brilliant documentary!
CANT WAIT TO DIG INTO THIS
Incredible work
First and last words of Rome: For the city!
Fantastic documentary
Good stuff, ty
I love everything you do❤
Once again after watching, great!!
All for these kinds of vids on the channel. I feel like only having vids of recollections limit the channels creativity.
Thank you for your job
I have watched alot of documentairy's but, this part of Roman history is rarely talked about.
The basic's is all i have heard so far Twin brothers, She wolf , 7 kings etc but, nothing like this.
Thank you!
Twins as founders goes back far before Rome, and one twin must always die at the founding. Goes back to oral traditions of Europe of the cattle herding ancients.
The twins are also in the ancient mayan tradition and many other peoples of the americas so its prolly much older than the cattle herders
Das war eine lange Nacht mit euch!
Just wonderful. Wonderful.
Incredible!
HEEEEEELLLLLL YEAAAA, A 2 HOUR VIDEO ABOUT THE ROMAN EMPIRE!!! I LOVE YOU MAN
I love it.
so much to learn on the origins of Rome...
,,, even more massive thnx n kudos ... greetings from berlin ...
23 seconds in and already best video I’ve ever seen
Did anyone notice that there is not much ads, or is it just me?
What a channel ❤ 🏹
Amazing!!!!
Ones more great video🎉.
Amazing 👏
Thanks!
Could you announce the years as the year of the speaker changes for those of us who listen but don’t watch please? I listen to all your videos except these multi year ones because I don’t want to have to check the phone every time
Wonderful video as always. Cincinnattus is one of my favorite historical figures
Cincinnattus is very likely just a mythological figure and did not actually exist in history
@@HistoriaMoneta you might know more about him than I do but I hope not
He does seem a lot like a mythological hero tho
What a long video, looks interesting. 😊
Love me some early Roman history, thank you! 🦅
This was an enjoyable journey through a swath of history.
When two brothers love a wolf very much…. David don’t get ideas about fratricide…
As for your Channel
Brave maps sir
Romulus & Remus, baby. Brings to mind lycanthropes & our Dogmen here in the States.
Banger
This is not voices of the past but rather a narrated story. No hate just that I was glad your videos was actually completely unedited writing true to the word.
Is it accurate to say it's impossible for Rome to exist at all without Greece?
