When I saw the title Abydos, I emedietly thought Stargate SG1!! 😲 🤣 The SciFi show kick-started my passion for Egyptology almost 30 years ago! I love the relief sculptures but not the subject. War, conquest and propaganda. I'm glad they stopped human sacrifice and used sculptures instead. As usual another awesome video Irena, and team! Stay cool, stay safe ❤️🤘😁🖖🇨🇦
What a great way to start the weekend with one of your documentaries! The walls from Shunet El Zebib, the colors and the dynamicart at the Ramses II temple, and ofcourse the unique representation of Anubis with human head at the temple is a really jewel! Next time you will show us the first dynasty tombs for sure, once the archeological campaign finish! All the documentary is amazing! Thanks again for your work Irena!! ♥
Splendid Irena, what a wonderful video, really good recording, looks so good you feel like you're actually there. Brilliant ancient art, amazing colours and carvings and I love the hieroglyphs. The black granite gate is so awesome, I would love to be there to see that , how did they do that? And what a shame about the black granite statues, I bet they looked amazing in their original state. I hope you had a brilliant time. Thankyou so much, you are so super cool 🏅AncientSitesGirl🥇 🧡🧡🧡
It's wonderful in Abydos. Next time I will try to show more. There are not only early dynastic tombs, but also quite a lot from the Middle and New Kingdoms. Thank you for your kind comments and for your great support for this channel Mark!
@@ancientsitesgirl🥇 Thank yourself Irena, it because of your superb work that I say it. 🧡🧡🧡 Proverbs 18;15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. ❤💛💚
always an iconic video, i've said it before but every single video is so well done! also there's something beautiful to me about the use of mainly just primary colors
Jak tylko usłyszałem o Abydos, to od razu przypomniała mi się Polaraxa 21-21 i kwestia Omm Sety. Jeśli wyczuwa Pani coś niezwykłego w tym miejscu to i Pani być może miała w przeszłości z nim jakieś związki... 🤔 🙂 A co do amerykańskich archeologów... myślę, że jak znajdą coś co zapoczątkowało/wystartowało cywilizację i mogło pochodzić z... powiedzmy "nie stąd", to zabiorą to, przebadają, pewnie zmajstrują jakąś broń, a my zwykli ludzie niczego się nie dowiemy 😞 Aż chce mi się powiedzieć: Yankee, go home! Skomentował, zalajkował, wręczył bukiecik, podziękował i rączki pocałował! Auuuuu! 🤸♂🙂💐😘 👍
Dziękuję bardzo! To moja kolejna wizyta w Abydos, tym razem zatrzymałam się niedaleko "Omm Seti Hilton" gdzie mieszkała. Przyznaję że pierwszy raz dowiedziałam się o niej na polaraxie
@@ancientsitesgirl Mi intuicja podpowiada, że różnych anomalnych dla nas przypadków w Egipcie i w ogóle w starożytności musiało być więcej. Już same piramidy w Gizie to jak kij wbity w oko współczesnemu człowiekowi. Dziękuję za dopięcie serduszka 🙂 Ukłony
Too bad you can not see more in Abydos, it certainly is a magic place. It is a city where the old and new is combined. Thank you for the video Irena, your friend in Key West Ingrid Holm.
Hey!! Great video 🤩 I’m going to Egypt this summer and your videos are pure gold to learn abt the history of those sites :)) Thank you for your great work 🙌 I’ve seen on your channel that you managed to visit a lot of great sites in upper Egypt. As I will be solo travelling, I was wondering how did you manage to move so freely off the beaten path. I would really love to visit the temples in Esna, Qena, Abydos and Kom Ombo but dont know if its easy without a guide. Any tips ? 😊
Absolutely magnificent! Once again a superb commentary with beautiful, high quality filming/photography. I wish I had a 16 : 10 monitor with a 3000 cm diagonal so I could watch this in 4k at life size! But what a shame they won't let you film in some places. 😥 {:o:O:}
As for Abydos, I understand special security considerations, we are talking about the oldest historical monuments of Egypt. Of course, I'll keep trying... ;) Thank you very much!
The engravings in the granite there are good but still done by hand using copper chisels. 🤔. The statues in the Cairo Museum with the scratched in hieroglyphs show the work of hand but the statues themselves well imo they are out of this world. 👽.
@@ancientsitesgirl It looks like, from my perspective, someone had intentionally covered up a rather enormous phallus LOL 😀. This isn't the first time I've seen this in ancient Egyptian art. Even King Tut was entombed with an erection.
@@ancientsitesgirl ....once again thank you .....thank you for what you do.... this channel ➡️ Bright Insight as the best video i ever seen about Petra, so far... 🔹Bright Insight 🔹""This is what's inside the Lost city of Petra...."""" In my opinion Petra is as old as the great Sphinx... because it also as signs of water erosion... Have a Nice day 🔹🍎🔹
@ancientsitesgirl all I'll wanna do is go there and take a few pictures of the main structure, Hugh Newman said you need armed guards etc in his video. So not sure if I can just go there and take a few pics haha
This is easily the best presentation about Abydos that I have seen. The filming is fantastic. If this was the only temple ever discovered in Egypt, it would be a world-wide sensation. Thanks, ASG, for your usual high quality, information packed commentary.
Dear Ancient Sites Girl,I like your smooth sir flow like speaking.I also very much mad for your greetings like " Good Morning" "Come on let's go" "see you again" "liking of my small channel does me a lot".So, superab a female soothing voice cynosure being common "Ancient culture, architecture, civilization" so beautifully explained by your serene, smooth flowing voice having caressing, soothing voice as if a mother's magic Swinging & singing melodiously her child in the cradle ,soon child goes into beautiful dream world asleep.
Amazing how all the old history is explained by the last 200 years of Christian royal outlines. The old kingdoms had different cultures, values and slostrong. Times were different.
This video is full of proof for ancient high technology. If you look at the mud brick wall from a really really far away, it looks like it would be 3d printed. Coincidance, I think not!
@@ancientsitesgirl how can you prove that? Within the first 6 to 10 dynasties either point to Yam, punt or Nubia as their place of origin and where their gods reside. Or places further up the Nile. Not one, that I know of, point across the Mediterranean or to the east as their origin. You have to wait till the Ptolemy period to find such a history, a truly mixed populace. And of course the Roman and Persian period not in that order. There’s a clip from a documentary where a researcher had dug up a king’s coffin from the 11th dynasty I believe and he’s certain that the king will have a Mediterranean history. He is amazed that skull depicted an African history. He accepts it as being an Egyptian but is surprised nonetheless. Hey, the Ptolemy period is ancient but three thousand years after different ethnicities gathered from African gathered at the end of the Nile.
however, genetic studies of human remains from the Neolithic indicate that the population in central Egypt (Nagada, Abydos) has not migrated for thousands of years, and this is where the Egyptian civilization was supposed to be born. Even then, the local population seems to be ethnically diverse
@@ancientsitesgirl I agree with you , they were ethnically diverse. Africa has roughly 3400 different ethnic groups. Many I assume have long gone (mixed with other groups). The madja is an example of one ethnic group. China is second with approximately 2700 I believe. Europe has approximately 86. So, yes I agree with you. Ancient Egypt was diverse. As far as the two places you named, yeah they and several other groups combined to make Kemet. It’s not hard to just look it up. Throw some groups from Ethiopia and some from Libya. All this well documented. Nothing that I have seen or read mentions any group from across the Mediterranean until maybe 17 or 1600 bc or thereabouts. You have different groups coming out of the Nile going back 3200 bc at least. Napa Playa was around 3400 wasn’t it? Then they eventually head towards the Mediterranean. Who where and when do you have Mediterranean people joining the mix?
I still remember reading in Toby Wilkinson's book Early Dynasty Egypt his first words: "The history of Egypt began at Abydos." So glad you covered Abydos as its a place that doesn't get the attention it should!
I need to read this, especially since I'm planning a visit to Nagada... it's going to be a challenge 😋 thank you Cy

Engrave granite with copper chisels?
@@ittrax Sayed Hawass told me they used copper chisels with magic powers. 🤪.

To go to Shunet El Zebib, do you need special permissions or anything like that?
yes, archaeological work is still ongoing there too
@ancientsitesgirl all I'll wanna do is go there and take a few pictures of the main structure, Hugh Newman said you need armed guards etc in his video.
So not sure if I can just go there and take a few pics haha
Amazing ❤🇵🇹
Thanks
Egyptian civilization I think love birds art showing
Yes it's true

Hi
Hi✌️
In your honest opinion ancient sites girl, were the ancient Egyptians/Kemet a black African civilization?
I believe ancient Egypt was ethnically diverse as it is today
@@ancientsitesgirl how can you prove that? Within the first 6 to 10 dynasties either point to Yam, punt or Nubia as their place of origin and where their gods reside. Or places further up the Nile.
