this was a very lovely episode, you guys are so cute together. and you give a very intimate feeling for the locations that you are in. It would be fun to see you drag Graham along with you.
More debunking for me, or clarifying, however it is that you see it 👍🏽
Video request: explain how so many words from the past sound like modern words that have derogatory meanings. Especially religious or power based words. Example fasces/feces, shiites, Assyrians, fakir, stupa, sikh, flagellate/flatulent, and names/places such as Baby lon, Hungary, Turkey...Carian/carrion, Crete/creton.... It's just "Galerius" how many of these are out there hiding in plain sight. I'm guessing omissions in modern times was intended to conceal certain derogatory origins.

"Don't believe me? Don't be an Assos!" Made me laugh.
yeah, that was funny, first I did not want to believe in my ears
what means? google translate does'n know this word.
cute but, i don't believe that😊
@@user-we5dt9wi3o, Assos was an ancient Greek city near today's Behramkale or Behram for short, which most people still call by its ancient name of Assos.
@@user-we5dt9wi3o, it was a purposeful ham-handed pun 😼
It's great traveling vicariously with you and Tess. Thanks,
It's like watching Rick Steves, but much cooler and dealing with much older stuff
Clicked for the ancient history, as always, grinned for the cat and Indiana Miano nearly setting off a trap👀
Keep up the exceptional work, Dr Miano 👏
Didyma dedicated to Appolo and Artemis who were twins didyma means twins and they still have the same word !
Gotta be a bad day when your sacred spring dries up.
Great video. Thank you. It is great seeing it with your enthusiastic commentary and your show of obvious delight in being there!
Thank you for doing this style of video. My wife keeps asking me where I want to go on vacation and honestly I think I want to retrace your steps. To stand in places built and used thousands of years ago would be incredible.
omg that little jump back in the glass museum when the alarm sounded was HYSTERICAL
Sink-sank-sunk Just imagine what Didyma must have looked like in its full glory. Incredible.
Great way to start a day! Lets learn stuffs!
So when Croesus consulted the Oracle of Apollo concerning the outcome of his war with the Persians -it would have been at this oracle at Didyma which was near his kingdom rather than at the one in Delphi in Greece which was very far away? I may have the details a little mixed up but didn't Alexander the Great punish the descendants of the Branchidae priests when he came across them deep inside Asia where their ancestors had been transported - as they were considered to be descendants of traitors.
Yes Didyma was within Croesus' own kingdom. Delphi was not. Re: Alexander, it may or may not have happened.
Goddess Athena was said to have blue eyes.Or so Osiod whote in Theogonia!
I prefer the association with owls. 😉
Kind of destroys the argument that the ancient Greeks couldn't see in blue, doesn't it? But I think Metatron did a fairly good job of doing that himself
" hesiod" but yes!
I'm so envious of the amazing food you get to eat on your adventures!
Love the architectural sketches scratched into the stone at Didmya.
Speaking of the city, Halicarnassus, the hometown of Herodotus, was a Greek colony founded by Greek Dorians from Argos in the 8th century BC and the Greek language was always spoken in the city until the Ottoman occupation, the 14th century AD and the Islamization of the population.And of course all the inscriptions that exist are Greek.So simple.
All toponyms that end in -ssos and in - ttos , are of Proto-Greek-Pelasgian origin i.e Knossos, Tyrissos, Amnissos, Volissos, Vrilissos, Ilissos, Parnassos, Teumissos, Mykalissos, Permessos , Ardittos, Gargittos, Lycabettus, Sypalittos, Hyettos, Hymettos ecc.
This series has been amazing. I can't wait for the next episode!!! Living vicariously through you and Tess and your guides. But now I've already searched for a Turkish restaurant in my area and planning to go soon. All that wonderful food is driving me crazy!!! I have to have it ;)
Favorite word still used today: meander. Thanks for sharing your travels.
Thank you Dr.
Fantastic job!
❤❤❤
Definitely gotta visit Didyma. Epic even on screen. I loved Delphi - though it’s not very overtly impressive, the feel to the area is very special. Great detail about written vs verbal questions.
Have you ever reviewed historical fiction for historical accuracy or otherwise contributed with historical fiction authors?
Ooh, Ephesus next! I was lucky to visit in 1998 as part of a school trip. Our small a capella group performed there & could be heard clearly from the highest seats. Amazing engineering.
To date, no, I have not.
Thanks!
This is a great one Doc! 😍
I especially enjoyed the Apollo temple. Oh, and love the orange scarf that Tess wore at the temple. And as always, your hat is perfection on you. Not that I am watching these just to critique your accessories. 😆
Thank you!😊
Didyma looks Amazing. I have been to Baalbek and was overwhelmed. Seems like you could be similarly overwhelmed at Didyma too
Thanks Dr Miano
Whenever I see these ancient ruins I wonder how those who saw them at their height would feel if they saw them today.
Pride, perhaps, that we're still wondering at what they built centuries if not millennia later. But undoubtedly also sorrow, for it has fallen into ruin.

i love places that are related to Greek/Roman Mythology
you can see reconstructed version of temple at Manuel Bravo's channel. Incredible place!
Yeap great channel

What was lingua franca of ancient world ? Did they have one ? Thank you for great films
It depends on where in the world you are talking about, and what time period.
@@WorldofAntiquity sorry, I was thinking about eastern Mediterranean Sea, around time of battle of Kadesh ? Thank you
@@albertzee8510 Many people spoke Akkadian at that time. It was an international language of diplomacy.
This is unrelated but I was wondering about the holes on smallpox hill in Peru. I noticed a form of agriculture being used in the African desert where they dig holes like Peru to grow things. Do you think the Peruvian holes could have had such a purpose?
MOVA globe looks amazing! But they're out of stock on the ones I want. Hopefully they restock soon.
the outskirts of Didima is called the Epididima.

Hey make a video on how you much medical history you know or like to share in upcoming videos though you say about ancient history
Cool
Really, no one's mentioning Tess's dance at the steps of the great temple at @23:30 ?
Didyma go on the trip with ya?
Love your work, thank you.Please do more debunking. Idon't believe in UFO's but know there are flying saucers and we were never alone.

Are we not going to talk about runaway inflation that is currently happening in Turkey?
Honest question, was it always so “cheap” to access musuems?
And are there any concerns about conservation when museums are receiving so little in USD now.
So from my experience as a young conservator in an eastern EU country conservation is a problem in museums that gain a lot of revenue, too as museums tend to greatly underestimate the funds needed to preserve objects. In state sponsored museums conservators are usually paid minimum wage or a little over minimum wage if they're highly experienced, extremely qualified conservators (where I live the top notch conservators in the country are paid 900 euros/month post tax, I assume it's even less in Turkey) but it's way more expensive to hire self employed conservators. The lighting in the museums shown here seemed acceptable, especially for stone as stone is not nearly as light sensitive compared to paint or textiles, especially when it comes to ancient objects rather than post industrialization ones, but I would be a little concerned about the climate control there as humidifiers/dehumidifiers are really expensive to both buy and use. Turkey as a country is just significantly poorer than the US tho so I suspect that affects museum prices significantly
@@miglek9613 Thank you.
Turkey has negative interest rates, somehow…
The McCullough's know Emperor Marcus Aurelius, A.J. Levin, former Administrator of Family Tree DNA's Ashkenazi-Levite DNA Project (R1a1), has noted the McCulloch clan, in Scotland, could be descended from a Sarmatian man who was among the 5,500 Sarmatians (recently conquered) whom the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius brought to Scotland to garrison Hadrian’s Wall in 175 C.E. Researchers have also hypothesized that Sarmatians may be the source of the R1b Y-DNA found in the Scottish border regions. (McCulloch is F2935+, while R1a1a Ashkenazi Levites are F2935-; F2935, like CTS6, is an SNP that is downstream from F1345.) Isn't the Levites, the ones who worked with the priest and in the temple, served as musicians, singers, doorkeepers.

Is Didyma the same as Didymus.
Didymus, twin - a twin; Didymus, the Greek equivalent to the name Thomas, Transliteration: Thómas. Phonetic Spelling: (tho-mas') Definition: "the twin". In Sumerian, 'Maš' means Twin/Half. The term Maštabba, dMaš-tab-ba, is a Sumerian phrase meaning "the divine twins". Isn't Apollo a twin, his twin, Artemis.
In the MUL.APIN Tables, the stars later known as Castor and Pollux were known as the Great Twins. The Twins were called Lugal-irra and Meslamta-ea, meaning respectively "The Mighty King" and "The One who has arisen from the Underworld." They were regarded as guardians of doorways, guarding the gates of the Underworld.
The Silver Gate of Man is found between Gemini and Taurus, Orion is found in the center, pointing to the Sun on the day of the summer solstice with his club.
Play these word in reverse "Say Oath--They All Rule--Beyond The Mist", you hear them echo "Gemini--Orion--Taurus", adding the months they fall on should help out with the meaning
"Say Oath--Yam--Newest--Beyond The Mist--They All Rule" played in reverse, they echo "Orion--Gemini--June--May--Taurus"
Yam is a Twin, Manu sacrificed him to make the world and mankind. He judges the souls of the dead.
A symbol for Gemini was 'a Pile of Bricks', referring to the building of the first city and the fratricidal brothers, and the Sumerian name for the month May-June, when the sun was in Gemini, signified 'Bricks', the god of bricks, Kulla, Kullaba, the name of Uruk, the first city, Kullaba and Eanna, which coalesced in the Uruk period to form a town, having two temples, one for Anu, the other for Inanna. Mercury is the ruler of Gemini, In Greek mythology, Hermes, Herms, piles of stones, Mercury is the messenger and herald of the gods and the guide of dead souls to Hades.
Shamash the ancient Mesopotamian sun god. He was believed to see everything that happened in the world every day, and was therefore responsible for justice and protection of travelers. As a divine judge, he could be associated with the underworld. In the Sumerian tradition, he is the twin brother of Inanna.
The Sumerians, Mashu was a sacred mountain. Its name means "twin" in Akkadian, and thus was it portrayed on Babylonian cylinder seals-a twin-peaked mountain, described by poets as both the seat of the gods, and the underworld.
I wonder what "Sha" means of Shamash, would it be associated with any of this? ha ha ha I think so.

Dont be afraid to visit Israel if you like ancient stuff. Israel is a must.
free gaza first
@@darranwilkins4648go ahead free Gaza, dont waste time here and then come visit Israel. When you are in Gaza, can you please tell them not to fire missilles at Israel like they started doing as soon as Israel withdrew in late 2005, so they got blockaded, so they wont be blockaded again? Can you also tell them to stop their eternal fight against jews so they can finally have peace. Live up to your own words and go free Gaza.
Unforuntate to see Zionists in this comment section, but I agree with your point that Israel has some great ruins
@@moniumus6303 Nothing wrong with jews believing they can live in their ancestral land, definition of a Zionist. Should Italians not believe they have the right to live in their ancestral land Italy?
@@moniumus6303 even more unfortunate to see people with their roots in Europe call for a more than 3000 years old european colonialist project called Palestina, its a Latin word, latin is from Europe. Israel is a semitic word. The philistines were from Europe. The Romans called the land Palestina, they came from Europe. Arabs come from the south the arabian peninsular, it wasnt the jews who transgressed their natural and historical borders, the arabs did. Jews are called jews because the come from the kingdom of Judah with Jerusalem as its capital, the tribe of Judah. Unfortunate that the arabs transgressed their natural and historical borders and didnt respect others.

Looked interesting but couldn't get past the obnoxious commentator.
This video is in English. You are an English speaker. The name of the country in English is 'Turkey'. So why are you referring to it as 'Türkiye'? Don't be silly.
Go look at English-speaking sporting events, and see how it is listed. inside.fifa.com/fifa-world-ranking/men www.nbcolympics.com/athletes Go see what the official English name is at the UN.
@@WorldofAntiquity Totally irrelevant how it's listed at either sporting events or the UN. The name in English is 'Turkey'.
@@Phill-lo4pf It's not a question of pronouncing foreign names. If you were speaking Turkish to a Turkish person then of course it would be correct to say 'Türkiye'. If you are speaking English to an English audience then it is moronic to say anything other than 'Turkey'.
For the same reason, it would be idiotic if in the middle of a conversation in English with other English-speakers you were to start referring to 'Deutschland' instead of 'Germany' or 'Zhong Guo' instead of 'China'.
