Thanks this series were my very first ones on the podcast from months ago. I'm slowly releasing content on TH-cam. I'm looking to try and make these more visual but that requires some competent video editing skills I don't have. So there's a learning curve there. My newer content is improved. Better research, better audio, and what I hope to be more interesting stories and information. My fall series is on the fall of Babylon starting next month. But if you're an audio podcast fan you can find Grimdark History on all podcast platforms. Hope you enjoyed enough to listen some more. and thanks for listening at all.
Probably the most facinating book on the copper age (and earlier) I've read is a book called The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity. I wish I had read it prior to creating this episode. Some of the content would be different. Covers how societies and civilizations form. What influences them. Talks about a lot of different civilzations from Neolithic to today. A health chunk of examples draw on new ways of thinking of some copper and bronze age societies and their history. Just a warning though the first two chapters can be a little hard to chew through if you're not a sociologist. I struggled with it, but powered through and after those first couple of chapters (which were basically a history of sociology and thought) it started digging into all these societies.
🤙 good enough to bounce around a decent conversation
