that's pretty insightful, i just love how these stories tell you just as much about the people they come from than some of the more factual information in history.
ArkadiBolschek it wouldn’t be so bad if only he were also an anime protagonist. Anime protagonists who have kids who are also anime protagonists are usually fine.
Timothy McLean If anyone’s curious, he’s talking about a web serial called Worm. It’s really, really long but also really good. I recommend giving it a try.
@Hesusio Yeah they did! They were bloody incompetent. Given what they assigned themselves, that is a pretty big sin. But of course, that was Just As Planned.
It's supposed to be pronounced as a long 'a', take the 'a' from 'father' and elongate it. It's annoying when white people culturally appropriate the pronounciations of Muslims (the second sentence is obvious sarcasm).
Now, I cannot confirm with 100% certainty, but I would bet that "Sām" is not pronounced "Sam," and probably pronounced "Sahm," as in a broad /a/ (like in "father"), which sounds a lot "epic mythological sounding" and more "Persian" than "Sam." What I do know is that in modern Iranian farsi at least, there are two "A-sounds." The sound /ɒ/, which is a kind of O-ish "ah" sound, and the sound /æ/, same as English "short A" in words like "cat." The /ɒ/ sound is written with the letter alif, and when romanized is repented either as ā or â, even aa, which is exactly what we see in سام (sām). Historical farsi I think was similar except it had a long and a short "ah" sound: /a/ vs /a:/ and definitely no /æ/. Thus, I'm pretty damn sure that pronouncing it like the English name "Sam" is markedly wrong.
Yo, can we take a minute to appreciate Matt's voice work in this episode? He went above and beyond simply reading a script here, and I love how he had distinct voices for each sage
From software should really make a Persian themed dark souls XD this looks amazing as a video game, if only Ubisoft could do prince of persia the right way again
+Malcolm Alexander Nah dude, Aztec mythology should have a more hack and slash like attribute cause it was way more action packed and radicolous in action and gore
YEEEES. As an iranian, this would be my dream. There's already some persian themes in Souls, like Dragons being evolved Serpents. Also Sam wasn't a king, he was a legendary warrior that served Keikavous. He's from a long line of king serving warriors.
I'm glad you guys are doing persion myths, as a persian myself it's good to see us not shown in a negative light nowadays lol But if I can be a little nitpicky about the names for a second, I know we dont make this easy but I figure i'd drop a few pronunciations below Rudabeh - is pronounced in the syllables it's written in, Rue-Daw-Beh Sam - was probably pronounced Saam, given the accent on the A Zal - same as Sam, probably has the double A sound Simorgh - This one is a bit tricky, but you guys were close. It's pronounced like See-Mor-g Again, sorry to be nitpicky, but thanks again for making this series. I love watching animated versions of stories I was told as a child
Iranian poets are really fond of cypress trees: I am at page 37 of the Penguin edition of Shahnameh and I have lost count of the times they compare a comely person to a cypress tree.
And the sages bespoke their riddles, yet Zal did not know the answers. So he took the feathers that Simorgh gave him and set them alight. Simorgh came and promptly killed the six sages, which convinced Rudabeh's father to give him her hand in marriage.
Rudabeh: "So what is your dad's name again?" Zal: "Sam." Rudabeh: "Haha. Seriously, what is his name?" Zal: "Sam." Rudabeh: "Wow." Simorgh: "I know. That is a really weird name, and I am a giant bird with the head of a dog and the legs a lion."
So, is Rudabaeh...it's nice to see roots of stories, kinda like cinderella=rhodopis, or the rough face girl.Or sapsorrow=cap o rushes, bearskin,Dokeyskin ect. Historic folklore is Vast, I Love to see how ancient stories bleed through time and make different versions of very old tales. This video is sO fab! I never knew Rapunzel went back so far!
Usually zal is written zaul in English and Sam is pronounced som and also to my knowledge simorgh is actually a ginormous Phoenix, of course please correct me if I am wrong since the last time I have read the shahname ( the book of Persian mythology ) was 5 years ago, oh and also the reason Som was scared of Zaul is because white hair at birth was said to mean someone is a div aka demon
This style of video really takes me back to when my father used to tell me bedtime stories Good job for being one of the best youtube channel out there!
In a far away land to the East, rules a king named... "Sam". By his side you will always find one of his most trusted advisers, an enchanter that can summon fire without flint or tinder, a man that some call... "Tim".
My guess for why Saam was so distraught over his child's hair is that the white color was associated with albinism. That is not something you want to have in a tropical desert, like persia. It was probably also associated with the failing health of old age. Basically, it was a signal that their son was not destined to have a nice life. Saam was probably genre aware too.
He was caught by Muggles, who tried to chop his head off with an EXTREMELY blunt axe, and now he wanders the halls of Hogwarts, doing silly walks for students who ask politely.
I am Persian and I had been watching this channel since before u started the mythology videos, these Persian ones are great, I had heard them all and read them in their original poetry form. You are doing a great job. P.S. Had never heard about Simorgh having a dog head!!! Usually the head is shown as an eagle head, or some other big raptor bird, hawk or falcon. Loved it nonetheless.
The previous episode was kind of disappointing, many important details were left out which caused confusion for people who had not read the original story. Hope this one is better
blipboi gilgamesh Kind of. he should have mentioned Jamshid who was the king of Iran. He talked about Zahhak and his father who were rulers of Arabia for a while then suddenly the story shifted to Iran. what happend was that Jamshid was defeated by Zahhak and killed and Zahhak conquered most of Iran. they made some small mistakes too. Zahhak's name was bivarasp(which literally means 10 thousand horses, referring to his wealth) "Zahhak" became his nickname after he became king and the word comes from Avestan "Azhi Dahak" which means serpent and is cognate with the Persian word for dragon "Ezhdeha"
I live in Iran, I grew up with this story, no one ever mentioned that simurgh had a DOG’S FACE Even in the fairy tale books here they used a bird face for simurgh bro I just got culture shocked by my own culture 😭
I can't put my finger on why, but this feels like one of the best Extra Mythology episodes EVER. Lots of little details contributing, I guess? Good source material, handled well? A good mix of levity with the serious? In any case, great work EVERYONE!

Bird Mom is best mom.
Simorgh is known in legends to be smarter than humans.

"Nah I'm good; I brought a rope."
Apparently Zal is a DnD character. Never go adventuring without a good length of rope. _Never._
