Hi everyone, a couple of you asked how Tiglath-Pileser I could have hunted a narwhal, which is not native to the eastern Mediterranean. To be honest, I also didn’t know the answer and why some of the books I have identify the nahirus (the word used in Tiglath-Pileser’s inscription) as a narwhal. I thought I’d look into this and it turns out that in the Assyrian Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago, the word nahirus has been translated as “narwhal”. This obviously doesn’t confirm that the animal in question actually was a narwhal, and my guess is that the authors of the Assyrian Dictionary (who are not marine biologists) didn’t have a better word to describe this mysterious creature whose true identity is still unknown. Thanks to all of you who keep me sharp by asking such questions!
I was also surprised by that part but I thought that maybe they (maybe some extinct subspecies or related species) used to live there. Similarly to how there were lions all over the Middle East and even in Southern Europe. I also didn't found anything conclusively supporting it.
The ermine symbol is at Gobeki Tepi,it ould be Sparta,the Spartan king Menelaus daughter was Hermione named after a stoat or ermine!!! hecate rides a wolf on standing stones of Sweden Gotland,also they have the Armenian cross on the standing stones,Hwicce tribe from Willmington long man are connected!!
@Mail Fraud cave men .. not sailors besides .. ancient remains in Spain / France and other western-European nations today 20,000 years ago carried I2 Y-DNA which pre-dates Indo-european invasion of Europe ages later

They foster all kinds of fables and fantasy to control the masses and govern over them. Religion will never be real and government is a form of slavery
That was to hide the truth of their mining in Cornwall. The Phoenicians where part of the tribe of Asher. If you look at ancient maps .I hope this helps .
I love the way you voice the Neo-Assyrian rulers. Thats about how I imagine them sounding anyway, with how overt the top violent and edgy their empire was. Im currently listening a podcast about this and its much easier to put things in place with the visual commentary your video adds. Thank you!
The reason why Carthaginians seem cruel and barbaric to you is that most of what we know about them was written by their arch enemies the Romans and propaganda against rival nations isn't a new thing
@@armincal9834 hes talking about the neo assyrian kings who used extensive campaigns to legitimize their rule, it was typical of the region and kings were legitimized by their victories and ruling "the four corners of the world"
This transported me back to 25 yrs ago. I got the Akkadians, while my best-friend got the Phoenicians to report to the class. You're truly excellent, Cy. Students, teachers, or history enthusiasts will surely benefit greatly from your videos.
Thanks so much for the kind words, I really appreciate them and really glad you got to take a trip down memory lane... this stuff also takes me back to when I was first learning about this part of the world. Thanks also for stopping by, I really appreciate it. Much more to come, stay safe!
Every empire was part of the Holy Roman Empire and every governemnt today is also HRE but , they are currently resetting again for the NWO and we are being converted again
There is more to the Phoenician's than meets the eye. I think many would be surprised to know just how far and for how long their influence really extended. It's interesting that the modern alphabet is based on Phoenician characters. It's almost as if they never really went anywhere...
A "sea horse" from which ivory is obtained... Nice description for a hippopotamus which literally means a "water horse" and has tusks that are sometimes used as ivory.
A hippo in the sea? Maybe the Assyrian king got confused and ended up in the Nile. The idea that the "sea horse" was a narwhal seems unlikely to me. Firstly, an animal with legs is unlikely to invoke the memory of horses. Secondly, narwhals are found in circumpolar waters, not the eastern Mediterranean. Finally, the quoted passage doesn't really imply the "sea-horse" was slain from a boat. The Assyrian king could have killed it on land. If the Romans could bring hippos from Egypt to Rome for gladiatorial combats in the Flavian Amphitheatre, then the Phoenicians could bring a hippo to the Canaanite Levant.
Oh yeah. I had sex with my mother and then sacrificed babies the year after. Thanks Semiramis and Nimrod for bringing infidels Tammuz which brought us christ-mass and ester and more sun worship. happy holidays
I've been watching your videos for a little over a month now, and I am so impressed by their quality. I've never seen so much detail put into these cultures and peoples. Keep up the amazing work, because I am loving it!
Loved this one Cy. Your use of contemporary texts is key to understanding, however single their point of view. I’ve often wondered about the connection of the Phoenicians and the even pre-bronze age settlements on the Atlantic coastline of Iberia, Brittany and Southern Ireland, which seem to have a singular Mediterranean use of agriculture and domesticated animals, do you have any conjectures?
Oh for sure, I'll be talking a bit about that in an upcoming program, probably a podcast. Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate it...stay safe!
Worth mentioning that the highest point of Malin Head/Peninsula where the Tuatha are supposed to have landed in Ireland is called Mount Carthage, Surely not a coincidence.
Gaming Champ Yeah Bro. The written Vowels were made by the Greeks. Thats why many Linguists say that Greek is the first TRUE Alphabet. Its important to note that a few of the Phoenician Letters were used completely differently by the Greeks, the Alpha/Aleph for example and a few others. The Greeks also added a few of their own Consonants as well. Glad I could Help 👍
HELLAS59 thank you for the extra knowledge you provided and the clarification. I was confused because I at first thought the Phoenician alphabet had vowels.
@@johnmanno9701 Yeah it reminds you of a style that hasn't been popular in 50 years. They don't do it that way anymore since its annoying to most people.
Yeah, reading and analyzing the relevant primary sources is something I love doing... though I may not always get their true meaning, just reading their words gives me a who new perspective and glimpse into the minds of the author. Thanks for stopping by, really appreciate it...stay safe!
I am really enjoying this content. I have to admit I am not well versed in many of the historic subjects you present in your videos. But therein, coupled with quality production, lies their intrinsic value.

Haha thanks so much, I have the algorithm gods are listening! Thanks so much, I really appreciate the enthusiasm from viewers like you... motivates me to put out more of these. Thank YOU!
These videos give such a complete and detailed history. With such a rich and fascinating history, the Phoenicians should be remembered for more than just their purple dye.
Ok watched all the Canaan history videos now I'm back to the video that showed up in my suggested videos. So glad I found your channel! You are awesome

@@HistorywithCy Hy. I was wondering. Will you make a video about phoenician/canaanite/carthaginian religion before your video on the history of Carthage, or after that video?
Cy thank you so much , wow tons of new info about the PHONICIANS 😊 we traced my mom history ( family tree ) back 600 years and dad around 500 years by the church records ! Yes ofcorse I subscribed
I Didn’t know so much about the phoenicians, good episode cy! It would be cool if you could do an short episode about the Roma people ( gypsy’s) in the future, the history books barley mentions my people & our history/culture. Stay save Cy-dude 💯✌🏼
Hey, thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it! I'd actually love to go further into that because I've read a little about the Roma and their eastern (possibly northern Indian) origins but not studied the subject in much depth. I'll put the topic on my list and see what sources I have. Thanks for the suggestion, stay safe!

Haha thanks, it's actually kind fun, though I think some people think it's a bit corny. As I don't have a voice actor to do it, you're stuck with me for the moment. Thanks again, stay safe!
This video was great. I appreciate your particular attention on Phoenician art, since it's not realy studied that much. Wich is a shame. Yes, they took influence from all the surrounding cultures, from Grece to Egypt, but they still had an admirable skill with the use of bronze and ivory. They were also the masters of glass, making thousands of intricate glass beeds for their jewerly. Oh. About that Baal king. His name did not necessarely took influence from their gods. Baal was a generic term that meant MASTER. Wich is a rather fitting, but redundant, name for a king. 🤷 There is only one thing in the video that confuses me... The narwal... How did a narwal reach the mediterranean sea...? And how did the historians made the conclusion that the sea horse was, of all animals, a narwal...? Am I missing something here? 😕
Hey, great to hear from you! Yes, Baal (sometimes written Ba'al) also has been translated as "lord" as in a feudal lord. About the narwhal, that's a really good question that others also had and so last night I was doing some research on why Pritchard and others call it a narwhal. I think I may have found the answer to that. In the The Assyrian Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago the word nahirus which Tiglath-Pileser I uses has been translated as narwhal. It might not actually be one but that's how it's been translated, and so some books I now see are identifying it as such. Though no explanation is given for why that word was used, it is an older translation and perhaps it was once thought that maybe an extinct species of such an animal once existed in that part of the Mediterranean. I'm going to see if I can find a more recent translation of the word. Thanks again for stopping by, stay safe!
@@HistorywithCy Thanks for the answer. I appreciate it. Glad to see that I am not the only one who was confused by the narwhal thing I don't realy think it's necessary to do further research on this stuff tho... But you do you. 😂😅 Thanks again for the answer. When is the Q&A coming out?
@Star Star The phoenicians borrowed elements of their artstyle from Ggrece, Egypt, and Mesopotamia. This was because the phoenicians built various colonies near already existing greek colonies in places such as southern Italy. This interest in greek art was very clear in Carthage. Wich abandoned almost completely their old middle eastern artstyle, in favor of a very ellenic one. This is clear from the various busts of Tanit, and the various sculptures offered to the temple of Baal Eshmun. The phoenicians shared stuff with the greeks indeed, especialy their alphabet and the use of the stars for navigation. But they took inspiration from the greeks in the art department. 🤷
@@HistorywithCy we would want the orignial tranlsation, not necessarlity a new one. Our language has already been butchered . Ba'al is comparable to El , who is connected to the Planet Saturn
My pleasure and glad you found it useful! I'll be putting out some more supplementary material on the Phoenicians in the near future, stay tuned and thanks!
I made a historical address to my Masonic lodge on the subject of Tyre. My keynote epigraph was my take on their guiding principle - 'the Phoenicians believed in 'make money, not war'.' I find that admirable.
So I did some digging into the narwhal story and it turns out a narwhals stray into the Mediterranean rarely, one was caught by a fisherman’s net in Egypt in the mid 20th century, one body of another that also was found is preserved in a museum in Alexandria.
Thanks! Yeah I think I'll be doing more short videos because they also take longer to make. The more detailed content I'll just leave for podcasts. As always, thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate it... stay safe!
That is great. You might wish to tell the story of Pelasgoi who were they where they lived. Perhaps this will complete your story on Phoenicians. By the way there is an ancient city Phoenician in the area of nowadays Albania. Just some additional info.
Thanks my friend, all good over here, hope you're doing well also! I know that you love the Babylonian stuff and I have a couple of new vids on that coming up soon...stay tuned and safe!
I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU TO MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT THE PHOENICIANS LAST VIDEO! THANK YOU SO MUCH! MY ANCESTORS BARELY HAVE AN VIDEOS ABOUT THEN ON TH-cam! SORRY FOR ALL CAPS BY THE WAY I AM JUST TOO HYPED!
Could you make a video on the Chaldeans ? and Iberians ? and Tartessians ? and Cimmerians ? and Scythians ? and Phrygians ? and Lydians ? and the builders of Stonehenge ?
Yes! Scythians, Phrygians and Lydians are on deck, Chaldeans I'm considering maybe a short podcast, more on the tribes in southern Babylonia. Let's see... Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate it. Stay safe!
I wonder what the connection between Pre-Phoenicians before the Bronze Age Collapse and Ugarit, a bit north of the Phoenician area was. After all, Ugarit had a form of a north-semitic alphabet rendered in Cuneiform, while the Phoenicians had their own north-semitic alphabet.
Yes, you're correct... I'm actually researching for a short podcast on Ugarit... stay tuned for that. As always, thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate your continued interest in all of the content on the channel. Take care!
@@جنديمجهول-ب5ت so you clearly havent done some research huh? Sad, look bro those ethnic groups only make a small fragment, canaanite DNA is still present and in huge fragment, whether you like it or not
Canaan and Phoneicians mostly carried J1-P58 Y-DNA as majority then J2b-M205 Y-DNA J1-P58 also found among Ammorites in Alalakh and Ebla both are dominant Y-DNAs among Arabs today and middle east
The word "Phoenix" (Φοινιξ) is a Greek word which root is the word Φοινος - Phoenos = Dark red as a result of the fire that Phoenix bird uses to renew its self . For the rest about the origins of the Phoenecians etc i will not comment because is clearly subjective too the date one chooses to interprete the facts of history . One true fact is that the history of the general Eastern Med area is not so young as the bronze age !! :)
Phoenician and Canaan people were exactly the same. Phoenician was just the name that the Greeks gave to the Canonites, The Greek came after them and gave them a new name that became famouse in Europe.
The Phoenicians survived the sea people’s invasions because the Phoenicians were related in commerce with the former and greatest sea power of the Minoans and in fact may have been Minoan ports before the collapse of the Minoan commercial empire before the natural cataclysmic events
Very informative: thanks. Phoenicians were great sailors and traders. They would lay out their goods on the docks or beach near a city and then send up a smoke signal. They would then retreat to the ship. The locals would inspect the trade goods and leave a payment in gold or silver and then withdraw. The Phoenicians would come out and either take the payment or, if they felt it was inadequate leave it And return to the ship for an other round of negotiation. The first phonetic alphabet, actually an abjad, (no vowels) is attributed to the Phoenicians who spread it to the clever Greeks who added vowels. (800 bce) These first phonetic symbols were extracted from Egyptian hieroglyphs.
Yup, thanks for the extra info, appreciate it. Glad you found the video useful too. I'll do something on the alphabet soon, hopefully later on this month. Thanks again and stay safe!

Thank you.really great presentation and accurate.after the dominance of Roman empire the Phoenician mingled with the remenents of the assirians and later both with Arabs and that is the current demographic of Lebanon and parts of Syria.
I loved this video as it is very well documented yet allow me to add some details based on archaeology and historiography: The hypothesis that the sea people intermingled with the locals has been revoked by genetic analysis. there is no trace of any of the sea people markers in the remains of the Phoenician cities , and the colonies where the sea people established themselves did not survive for long (Akko for example was in the hands of the Tjeker by the time of Wenamon and 200 years later it becomes a Tyrian outpost) . And there is a clear evidence that there was a certain hegemony if not an attempt at a united kingdom by the the duo Tyre-Sidon : we see it clearly in the policies of Ithobaal both in colonization of the coastline and in the political marriages, and you see it clearly in the text of the "annals of Sennacherib", as in the fact that almost all colonies in the Mediterranean were the work of Tyre-Sidon. you may see references in this subject in the works of Maria Eugenia Aubet "The Phoenicians and the west" as well as in the works of Maroun Khreish .
Hi, thanks so much for the extra information, some of it I am familiar with (the text in the annals of Sennacherib for example) but others not as much so I really appreciate you pointing all this out. I've heard of Maroun Khreish...I think in the book "In Search of the Phoenicians" which I need to read again. Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it... more to come!
Similar is to way to light and almost an accurate to say they have the exact same just like to have the regular Canaanite DNA too many Palestinians have the same exact thing to it's like many Israelis are direct descendants of the Jews like "israel/edom/moab/ammon and judah" provinces.
I doubt the study and would be interested in reading it. Firstly, we don’t have any corpses that are “phonecian” to compare the DNA to... as well, DNA from someone in Lebanon, Iraq, Palestine will be very very very similar ...it’s Not possible to distinguish a between someone from Syria and Lebanon based on DNA.
Y-DNA matters ... to be paternally descent of said civilization do you carry J1-P58 Y-DNA or J2b-M205 then you are likely from their line alongside other "Semites" at that time because these Y-DNA haplogroups are found in Canaan / Phoenicia from the bronze age to the Iron age (before Persians and later Alexander invaded the region)
@@charliesea8594 You can’t distinguish Lebanese and Syrians and Palestinians. These are Cannanite people for the most part. It’s like using DNA to distinguish someone from NYC vs NJ. Just doesn’t work that way. But sure, you can use it to distinguish let’s say Egyptians from Cannanites
Do you have chronology videos? Like it'd be cool if I knew exactly which civilizations came after the other and which were simultaneous. I know the Sumerians were the first but besides that, the whole line of them between Minoan Crete and the Indus Valley are confusing mostly because I wanna know what they were in relation to the others. I just need periods and snapshots of the world around them to remember and I want to judge them like everyone else. I just mean the general region, not all over the world like this fraction would be Crete to North India.
Is Baal of Tyre a name or a title? Baal is often translated as "the Lord", so the phrase might be "the Lord of Tyre", i.e. a ruler but not a named or specific ruler.
Ba'al is a title. It comes to be viewed as being a name from its regular use as a title. Ba'al of Tyre could be used to refer to the king, or it could be used to refer to the god over that city/region. Context would dictate.
The whole Phoenicians trade thing was NOT about wood and etc...mainly. They did sell off lots of cedars, but ended up trading mostly amazing commodities. It was was about "color" "oils" "wines" Healer plants", "cloth" "Yummy dried food" and countless other commodities that were amazing back then. Lebanon Canaan Cities were traders and they linked the world for tens of centuries.
Yes, true... just that they were known far and wide for trading in cedar since it was such a prized commodity in those days. Thanks for stopping by, appreciate it...stay safe!
Baal was the main god worshipped at that time in addition to Ashtar. Baal in Arabic also means god, father, provider, ruler... HaniBaal the ruler od Carthage crossed the Alps and attacked Rome. HaniBaal can mean that who likes Baal or worships him or his son...this kind of connotation.
Ba'al-ze-bub is also El , Moloch, Yahwey, Allah, Jehovah, Chronos, Santa, Shaytan and more and they all connect back to Saturn. In God we trust, refers to Satan, the god of many names. The Deceiver. The God of Wealth, Time and the Harvest
Originally, these people came to our sea from the Red Sea [Persian Gulf/Indian Ocean], as it is known. No sooner had they settled in the land they still inhabit than they turned to overseas travel. Herodotus 1:1
Hi, thanks for stopping by. So they don't mean the small marine animal that we today call a seahorse. The Phoenicians called the creature nahiru, but in Akkadian there is word to describe such an animal. Remember, the Assyrians before Tiglath-Pileser I were completely landlocked in what's today northern Iraq and had never in centuries never ventured to any sea, Mediterranean, Persian Gulf or other, so they had no idea what type of animal this was or how to describe it properly. At the same time, it is described as having a tusk or wiith ivory, which in Akkadian is a different word than tooth. Given it's description, the animal in question is believed to have been some sort of extinct marine mammal like a narwhal or perhaps some extinct species of narwhal itself. We know that a few marine mammals that were present in Roman times that are now extinct, so it's believed that this particular creature could have been one of them. Anyway, that's the only explanation I've read. Thanks again for stopping by, I really appreciate it...stay safe!
@@HistorywithCy Whatever you are referring to cannot be a Narwhal or extinct relative. Monodon monoceros (Narwhal) belongs to the Family Monodontidae and the Subfamily Monodontinae. The Narwhal has an exclusive polar distribution both currently and historically. No extinct taxon of the family or subfamily has been found in the Mediterranean.
Let me amend one of my statements. In double checking for accuracy, I did find a fossil taxon of the Family Monodontidae which was recovered from the Mediterranean basin. However, it is of Early Pliocene age (roughly 5 million years before present), and it was assigned to the Subfamily Delphinapterinae (Beluga whales). Further, the fossilized skull was recovered, and had no trace of any 'toothy' protuberances.
@@charlesmartin1121 Yeah you could be right... I"m just giving you what the text and author's commentary states. I'd be interested in learning more as to what that marine animal was...thanks for the info, I (and I'm sure other viewers) really appreciate it!
@@HistorywithCy Casatia thermophila is the genus and species. It was described in the August 2019 edition of the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. Interestingly, the paper contends that the Family Monodontidae, which presently only includes the Beluga Whale and Narwhal which inhabit Arctic or Boreal environments, may have originated in warmer habitats. There is another extinct Monodontid, Bohaskaia monodontoides, which inhabited the Pliocene waters of Virginia and North Carolina. It was named after a fellow I worked with at the Smithsonian. No protruding canine 'tusk' on that one either though.
Oh the one from the 80s? I've always wanted to see it... I saw the remake of it several years ago... was OK. Thanks for stopping by, really appreciate it...stay safe!
Phoenician is named Phoenicia because of phonem which was a word we used to describe a sound and Phoenicians ware meaning we ware the first people to develop the written language that uses phonems one sound one letter and accents that later we introduced to Greeks where their Linear B developed also we ware first to create cuneiform language however we end up needing to teach that language to ancient sumer Mesopotamia nowadays Syria and Iraq as they ware during that period stronger militarily. However in meanwhile we made the Tyre on Greek and ilyrian language that means Tir and then made a big navy to defend our coast and also specifically separated island which they cannot now conquer as we have better ships and navy. We end up beating them quite a few times and encompassing areas of nowadays damask and Amman and whole region of nowadays Israel as well the parts of Sinai peninsula so we had alternative trade route not caring about Egypt pass through their land and Nile. After the Egypt in cooperation with sumer by that time called Babylon lunched attack on our lands we defended regrouped and armed navy also some of Greeks in nowadays Greece come to help with their ships we went into the Egypt and destroy their military that left known as sea people destroying Egypt. After that we regrouped and destroyed the armies of Babylon nowadays Iraq and then returned to have the continuation of trade. A little bit after that as the Egypt was not a problem for us anymore we tried to find a new land and we sent some of our explorers with military to find new cities and chart the planet the names of that groups is from words chart carta card the map and gea which means land so we the Phoenicians and Greeks send our people to chart the land that are not known to us and that is how the Carthage first a city then a nation is found in Algeria and lybia and Morocco. Our people continued going around and charting the Africa as we had superior navy we also before the common era went over Atlantic and found the land in what is nowadays Panama Honduras and Columbia Venezuela. There ware not a lot of people in expedition but yes they landed there and we even have still a city named Carthage in the Columbia nowadays. Also on other side of the ocean in pacific there ware early south china tribes the Thailand Vietnamese people alike and Indonesian people alike passing over the pacific to find some of the Mexican west border areas where they sent their people and population. During the period that was a bit before that the Indonesian navy with big ships 60 meters long and 3 stories high which ware made from pine alike wood very light and that ware protected by the oil extracted from palm trees in coast areas went and found what Egyptians called Punt Pwnt which made them option to trade with those people. Egypt didnt have good ships during that period only boats for the Nile river 10 meters to 15 meters long. They asked Pwnt to make them ships they helped them with making the 30 meters ships for goods and for travel. However after the pwnt made those ships they tried to attack the pwnt as they ware single settlement of other population which ware distant and to still more ships and goods. That didn't went well for Egypt as the Indonesian group once the story of attack arrived to Indonesian region armed more people and send quite a few boats to defend its city and yeah they ransacked Egyptian forces from the south around 1500 BCE. So Egypt first fall from Pwnt 1500 BCE then from Phoenicia in 1200 BCE why because they ware assholes then acting like pieces of shit and trying to destroy trade in between our areas with the rest of Asia and Indonesians. The whole Canaan area was Phoenicia including area where aqaba is and part of Sinai was Phoenicia and we bordered with first sumer the Mesopotamia on east after that Babylon on east. Then the Egypt on west and Greek islands on west and on north partial for a while with sumer made Assyria and on north Greek tribes as we incorporated quite a few of Assyria cities in our empire as well.

@Yousef Ghaneemah not quite different people with similar same people with different kind of names but with different exact people but yes they are somewhat the same in general but not exactly if you're actually being exact but they are in fact cleaning people so in general from your outside perspective they would seem the same
@Yousef Ghaneemah you could say all people of earth are same people in different names. ..but sometimes people specify who they are talking about.. :D but to talk about brainwash.. let's keep it light rather because we've all been through it. :)
how do you know that you are Canaani descent ?? do you carry J1-P58 Y-DNA ? or J2b-M205 ? because these are found in Canaan / Phoenicia from the bronze age to the Iron age (before Persians and later Alexander invaded the region and population was effected a bit)
The commonality between Canaanites and Phoenicians were probably because they were descendants of two brothers, Canaan and Phut, sons of Ham and they lived along the same Mediterranean coastline. At the time, there was no confusion as to who was who. Later, the Phoenicians may have been called Canaanites because of the land of Canaan or because of a mixing. At any rate, they should have distinct Y chromosomes branching from the same root which would be an E1 or E2 * Y chromosome. Egyptians are E3 and Cushites are E3. Nimrod, the son of Cush is the C * Y chromosome. The other D * Y chromosome is another descendant of Cush. The A and B * Y chromosomes are likely descendants of Cush as well or another son of Ham. E is where they all branch off from. The F * Y chromosome belongs to another family tree which is Ham's brother Shem. The K * Y chromosome begins the Japhethite family tree.
Canaan was the land promised to the Israelites and they were called Phoenicans by the Greeks. they are now called Hebrew. A jew is not a person but a slave. They follow religion into slavery and gain by sordid means. Land of Canaan was in the Levant and is where the name Canada comes from, in America and the Holy Roman Empire

Hi everyone, a couple of you asked how Tiglath-Pileser I could have hunted a narwhal, which is not native to the eastern Mediterranean. To be honest, I also didn’t know the answer and why some of the books I have identify the nahirus (the word used in Tiglath-Pileser’s inscription) as a narwhal. I thought I’d look into this and it turns out that in the Assyrian Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago, the word nahirus has been translated as “narwhal”. This obviously doesn’t confirm that the animal in question actually was a narwhal, and my guess is that the authors of the Assyrian Dictionary (who are not marine biologists) didn’t have a better word to describe this mysterious creature whose true identity is still unknown.
Thanks to all of you who keep me sharp by asking such questions!
I was also surprised by that part but I thought that maybe they (maybe some extinct subspecies or related species) used to live there. Similarly to how there were lions all over the Middle East and even in Southern Europe. I also didn't found anything conclusively supporting it.
Too many ads.
Why has nobody covered the ancient Ermine heraldry and the kings of Mesopotamia wearing ermine as a sign of kingship,Stoat Hemione!!
Ermine is Armenia!!!
The ermine symbol is at Gobeki Tepi,it ould be Sparta,the Spartan king Menelaus daughter was Hermione named after a stoat or ermine!!! hecate rides a wolf on standing stones of Sweden Gotland,also they have the Armenian cross on the standing stones,Hwicce tribe from Willmington long man are connected!!
I once read that the Phoenicians fostered stories about sea monsters lying outside the straits of Gibraltar, so that other sailors wouldn’t go there.

That was to hide the truth of their mining in Cornwall. The Phoenicians where part of the tribe of Asher. If you look at ancient maps .I hope this helps .

There is more to the Phoenician's than meets the eye. I think many would be surprised to know just how far and for how long their influence really extended. It's interesting that the modern alphabet is based on Phoenician characters. It's almost as if they never really went anywhere...
It's because they didn't. They just expanded and 'adapted'

I can’t get enough of your renditions of old rulers’ and historians’ writings they make me so happy
A "sea horse" from which ivory is obtained...
Nice description for a hippopotamus which literally means a "water horse" and has tusks that are sometimes used as ivory.
Hippo potamus literally means "river horse ".
A hippo in the sea? Maybe the Assyrian king got confused and ended up in the Nile. The idea that the "sea horse" was a narwhal seems unlikely to me. Firstly, an animal with legs is unlikely to invoke the memory of horses. Secondly, narwhals are found in circumpolar waters, not the eastern Mediterranean. Finally, the quoted passage doesn't really imply the "sea-horse" was slain from a boat. The Assyrian king could have killed it on land. If the Romans could bring hippos from Egypt to Rome for gladiatorial combats in the Flavian Amphitheatre, then the Phoenicians could bring a hippo to the Canaanite Levant.
Neal Scroggs Hippos we’re native to most of this area including most of Anatolia - along with lions and other “African” animals.
Ivory from a Sea Horse? lol
So, not an elephant then? lol
The comments on this page are worse than the video itself
Your ignorance is quite unfortunate. The term ivory can refer to any dense tooth (calcium phosphate) material, such as narwhal horns and hippo teeth.

Loved this one Cy. Your use of contemporary texts is key to understanding, however single their point of view. I’ve often wondered about the connection of the Phoenicians and the even pre-bronze age settlements on the Atlantic coastline of Iberia, Brittany and Southern Ireland, which seem to have a singular Mediterranean use of agriculture and domesticated animals, do you have any conjectures?

HELLAS59 I literally searched if Arabic has vowels.
I didnt know phonecian didnt have vowels...
Gaming Champ Yeah Bro. The written Vowels were made by the Greeks. Thats why many Linguists say that Greek is the first TRUE Alphabet. Its important to note that a few of the Phoenician Letters were used completely differently by the Greeks, the Alpha/Aleph for example and a few others. The Greeks also added a few of their own Consonants as well.
Glad I could Help 👍

I appreciate your particular attention on Phoenician art, since it's not realy studied that much.
Wich is a shame.
Yes, they took influence from all the surrounding cultures, from Grece to Egypt, but they still had an admirable skill with the use of bronze and ivory.
They were also the masters of glass, making thousands of intricate glass beeds for their jewerly.
Oh.
About that Baal king.
His name did not necessarely took influence from their gods.
Baal was a generic term that meant MASTER.
Wich is a rather fitting, but redundant, name for a king.
🤷
There is only one thing in the video that confuses me...
The narwal...
How did a narwal reach the mediterranean sea...?
And how did the historians made the conclusion that the sea horse was, of all animals, a narwal...?
Am I missing something here?
😕
Hey, great to hear from you! Yes, Baal (sometimes written Ba'al) also has been translated as "lord" as in a feudal lord.
About the narwhal, that's a really good question that others also had and so last night I was doing some research on why Pritchard and others call it a narwhal. I think I may have found the answer to that. In the The Assyrian Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago the word nahirus which Tiglath-Pileser I uses has been translated as narwhal. It might not actually be one but that's how it's been translated, and so some books I now see are identifying it as such. Though no explanation is given for why that word was used, it is an older translation and perhaps it was once thought that maybe an extinct species of such an animal once existed in that part of the Mediterranean.
I'm going to see if I can find a more recent translation of the word. Thanks again for stopping by, stay safe!
@@HistorywithCy
Thanks for the answer.
I appreciate it.
Glad to see that I am not the only one who was confused by the narwhal thing
I don't realy think it's necessary to do further research on this stuff tho...
But you do you.
😂😅
Thanks again for the answer.
When is the Q&A coming out?
@Star Star
The phoenicians borrowed elements of their artstyle from Ggrece, Egypt, and Mesopotamia.
This was because the phoenicians built various colonies near already existing greek colonies in places such as southern Italy.
This interest in greek art was very clear in Carthage.
Wich abandoned almost completely their old middle eastern artstyle, in favor of a very ellenic one.
This is clear from the various busts of Tanit, and the various sculptures offered to the temple of Baal Eshmun.
The phoenicians shared stuff with the greeks indeed, especialy their alphabet and the use of the stars for navigation.
But they took inspiration from the greeks in the art department.
🤷
@@HistorywithCy we would want the orignial tranlsation, not necessarlity a new one. Our language has already been butchered . Ba'al is comparable to El , who is connected to the Planet Saturn
The language of Phoencian/Canaanite is now called Hebrew
Thanks a lot for the great video! I have always been interested in topics concerning Phoenicians!:)
My pleasure and glad you found it useful! I'll be putting out some more supplementary material on the Phoenicians in the near future, stay tuned and thanks!
I made a historical address to my Masonic lodge on the subject of Tyre. My keynote epigraph was my take on their guiding principle - 'the Phoenicians believed in 'make money, not war'.'

Love your enthusiasm and many thanks, it's my pleasure. More to come for sure, stay tuned!
@@HistorywithCy Ok. I will. I can't wait to see your next video!
Could you make a video on the Chaldeans ? and Iberians ? and Tartessians ? and Cimmerians ? and Scythians ? and Phrygians ? and Lydians ? and the builders of Stonehenge ?
Yes! Scythians, Phrygians and Lydians are on deck, Chaldeans I'm considering maybe a short podcast, more on the tribes in southern Babylonia. Let's see...
Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate it. Stay safe!
Amazing channel
I wonder what the connection between Pre-Phoenicians before the Bronze Age Collapse and Ugarit, a bit north of the Phoenician area was. After all, Ugarit had a form of a north-semitic alphabet rendered in Cuneiform, while the Phoenicians had their own north-semitic alphabet.
Yes, you're correct... I'm actually researching for a short podcast on Ugarit... stay tuned for that. As always, thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate your continued interest in all of the content on the channel. Take care!
Alpha is the first letter in Greek and Bet is the second in Hebrew.
Fantastic video Cy! Well done!
Thanks my friend, hope all is well on your end! And really enjoyed the Teutoburg Forest video!
Keep going, there is ALWAYS more to learn
An Assyrian boasting? Surely you jest.
The Phoenicians are the Canaanites and the Canaanites are the present Lebanese people, who carry 95% of the same DNA.
@@جنديمجهول-ب5ت well they do, do some research
@@جنديمجهول-ب5ت so you clearly havent done some research huh? Sad, look bro those ethnic groups only make a small fragment, canaanite DNA is still present and in huge fragment, whether you like it or not
@@marionehme4151 as a Lebanese i tell u u are right and we all also call ourselves Phoenicias
NOW CALLED HEBREWS
Thank you Phoenicians for giving us the basis of our Latin alphabet that Im using to write this comment.
I would like to see more information about the Phoenicians and the things they created.
Canaan and Phoneicians mostly carried J1-P58 Y-DNA as majority then J2b-M205 Y-DNA
J1-P58 also found among Ammorites in Alalakh and Ebla
both are dominant Y-DNAs among Arabs today and middle east
You are so full of crap.
thank you for thie vid i love my ancestors qnd history 🇱🇧❤
My pleasure, thank you for stopping by...stay safe!
@@HistorywithCy thank you for making this it is duly appreciated, as very few channels touch on this particular civilization. godspeed brother!
@@HistorywithCy can🌼 you 🌼tell🌼 me if Phoenicians were black or Asian looking or what color they was thank you
For a long time I thought the Phoenicians were just one people. I learned some thing new and the did not refer to themselves that way.Interesting vid.
Glad to hear, always happy when you all learn something new or interesting. Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it!
@@HistorywithCy I must digress and I can appreciate people looking for the truth but, there is much left to learn. (and you may not "believe" it)
The word "Phoenix" (Φοινιξ) is a Greek word which root is the word Φοινος - Phoenos = Dark red as a result of the fire that Phoenix bird uses to renew its self . For the rest about the origins of the Phoenecians etc i will not comment because is clearly subjective too the date one chooses to interprete the facts of history . One true fact is that the history of the general Eastern Med area is not so young as the bronze age !! :)
I live in Phoenician city called Ampi in north coast of Lebanon.
We call them Hebrew now
Love your map works!!💚
Glad you like them...creating the maps is my favorite part of making the video. Thanks again and stay safe!
really love what your doing man keep it up
Thanks so much for the words of encouragement, I really appreciate them...stay safe!
Phoenician and Canaan people were exactly the same. Phoenician was just the name that the Greeks gave to the Canonites, The Greek came after them and gave them a new name that became famouse in Europe.
The Phoenicians survived the sea people’s invasions because the Phoenicians were related in commerce with the former and greatest sea power of the Minoans and in fact may have been Minoan ports before the collapse of the Minoan commercial empire before the natural cataclysmic events
Ancient history documentaries like this make me question how we view 'progress.' Did we really advance, or did we lose touch with certain values?
Very informative: thanks.
Phoenicians were great sailors and traders. They would lay out their goods on the docks or beach near a city and then send up a smoke signal. They would then retreat to the ship. The locals would inspect the trade goods and leave a payment in gold or silver and then withdraw. The Phoenicians would come out and either take the payment or, if they felt it was inadequate leave it
And return to the ship for an other round of negotiation.
The first phonetic alphabet, actually an abjad, (no vowels) is attributed to the Phoenicians who spread it to the clever Greeks who added vowels. (800 bce)
These first phonetic symbols were extracted from Egyptian hieroglyphs.
Yup, thanks for the extra info, appreciate it. Glad you found the video useful too. I'll do something on the alphabet soon, hopefully later on this month. Thanks again and stay safe!

Conclusion: Both males an females exhibit a name creation band-gap. While the language continues to develop.
For men, there is a Collapse at 24% and lesser event at 18%. For women there is collapse at 32%, and a drop at 16%.
The early phonecians are similar to Ancient Egyptians in language development. Then the first cultural collapse occurs for both phonecian men and women. This is early egyptian history. It means they are a subdialect group of ancient egyptians.
After the proto-phonecian collapse we get the rise of the 'phonecian culture'.
*Proof the proto-phonecian female culture was an egyptian subdialect*

Thank you.really great presentation and accurate.after the dominance of Roman empire the Phoenician mingled with the remenents of the assirians and later both with Arabs and that is the current demographic of Lebanon and parts of Syria.
The Holy Roman Empire never fell. Its every government today
I loved this video as it is very well documented yet allow me to add some details based on archaeology and historiography: The hypothesis that the sea people intermingled with the locals has been revoked by genetic analysis. there is no trace of any of the sea people markers in the remains of the Phoenician cities , and the colonies where the sea people established themselves did not survive for long (Akko for example was in the hands of the Tjeker by the time of Wenamon and 200 years later it becomes a Tyrian outpost) . And there is a clear evidence that there was a certain hegemony if not an attempt at a united kingdom by the the duo Tyre-Sidon : we see it clearly in the policies of Ithobaal both in colonization of the coastline and in the political marriages, and you see it clearly in the text of the "annals of Sennacherib", as in the fact that almost all colonies in the Mediterranean were the work of Tyre-Sidon. you may see references in this subject in the works of Maria Eugenia Aubet "The Phoenicians and the west" as well as in the works of Maroun Khreish .
Hi, thanks so much for the extra information, some of it I am familiar with (the text in the annals of Sennacherib for example) but others not as much so I really appreciate you pointing all this out. I've heard of Maroun Khreish...I think in the book "In Search of the Phoenicians" which I need to read again. Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it... more to come!
@@HistorywithCy Would love to help you in any information you need on the subject . it would be my pleasure .
I found this video lacking in a lot of areas
It was found on a recent study, that modern Lebanese have similar DNA to the ancient Phoenicians. Those gents have been there forever and a day!
Similar is to way to light and almost an accurate to say they have the exact same just like to have the regular Canaanite DNA too many Palestinians have the same exact thing to it's like many Israelis are direct descendants of the Jews like "israel/edom/moab/ammon and judah" provinces.
I doubt the study and would be interested in reading it. Firstly, we don’t have any corpses that are “phonecian” to compare the DNA to... as well, DNA from someone in Lebanon, Iraq, Palestine will be very very very similar ...it’s
Not possible to distinguish a between someone from Syria and Lebanon based on DNA.
Y-DNA matters ... to be paternally descent of said civilization
do you carry J1-P58 Y-DNA or J2b-M205 then you are likely from their line alongside other "Semites" at that time
because these Y-DNA haplogroups are found in Canaan / Phoenicia from the bronze age to the Iron age (before Persians and later Alexander invaded the region)
@@AstroCanbe11833 actually, they do have the dna , and yes lebanese today ARE the Phoenicians !
@@charliesea8594
You can’t distinguish Lebanese and Syrians and Palestinians. These are Cannanite people for the most part. It’s like using DNA to distinguish someone from NYC vs NJ. Just doesn’t work that way. But sure, you can use it to distinguish let’s say Egyptians from Cannanites
Do you have chronology videos? Like it'd be cool if I knew exactly which civilizations came after the other and which were simultaneous. I know the Sumerians were the first but besides that, the whole line of them between Minoan Crete and the Indus Valley are confusing mostly because I wanna know what they were in relation to the others. I just need periods and snapshots of the world around them to remember and I want to judge them like everyone else. I just mean the general region, not all over the world like this fraction would be Crete to North India.
Time for some Phoenicia knowledge. 👍👍👍
Awesome, glad that you stopped by... thanks and stay safe!
still waiting
Is Baal of Tyre a name or a title? Baal is often translated as "the Lord", so the phrase might be "the Lord of Tyre", i.e. a ruler but not a named or specific ruler.
Ba'al is a title. It comes to be viewed as being a name from its regular use as a title. Ba'al of Tyre could be used to refer to the king, or it could be used to refer to the god over that city/region. Context would dictate.
yes and El is often translated as God but they are both Theonyms.
The whole Phoenicians trade thing was NOT about wood and etc...mainly. They did sell off lots of cedars, but ended up trading mostly amazing commodities. It was was about "color" "oils" "wines" Healer plants", "cloth" "Yummy dried food" and countless other commodities that were amazing back then. Lebanon Canaan Cities were traders and they linked the world for tens of centuries.
Yes, true... just that they were known far and wide for trading in cedar since it was such a prized commodity in those days. Thanks for stopping by, appreciate it...stay safe!
Baal was the main god worshipped at that time in addition to Ashtar. Baal in Arabic also means god, father, provider, ruler... HaniBaal the ruler od Carthage crossed the Alps and attacked Rome. HaniBaal can mean that who likes Baal or worships him or his son...this kind of connotation.
There were MANY "main" gods. The world was POLYTHEISTIC in the Aryan Age
Ba'al-ze-bub is also El , Moloch, Yahwey, Allah, Jehovah, Chronos, Santa, Shaytan and more and they all connect back to Saturn. In God we trust, refers to Satan, the god of many names. The Deceiver. The God of Wealth, Time and the Harvest
😂😂
just a note on pronunciation of Byblos , it's not bi blos rather it is pronounced bee blos , i hope this helps .

Originally, these people came to our sea from the Red Sea [Persian Gulf/Indian Ocean], as it is known. No sooner had they settled in the land they still inhabit than they turned to overseas travel.

How do you get narwhal out of seahorse, especially when they are not in the Mediterranean?
Hi, thanks for stopping by. So they don't mean the small marine animal that we today call a seahorse. The Phoenicians called the creature nahiru, but in Akkadian there is word to describe such an animal. Remember, the Assyrians before Tiglath-Pileser I were completely landlocked in what's today northern Iraq and had never in centuries never ventured to any sea, Mediterranean, Persian Gulf or other, so they had no idea what type of animal this was or how to describe it properly. At the same time, it is described as having a tusk or wiith ivory, which in Akkadian is a different word than tooth. Given it's description, the animal in question is believed to have been some sort of extinct marine mammal like a narwhal or perhaps some extinct species of narwhal itself. We know that a few marine mammals that were present in Roman times that are now extinct, so it's believed that this particular creature could have been one of them. Anyway, that's the only explanation I've read. Thanks again for stopping by, I really appreciate it...stay safe!
@@HistorywithCy Whatever you are referring to cannot be a Narwhal or extinct relative. Monodon monoceros (Narwhal) belongs to the Family Monodontidae and the Subfamily Monodontinae. The Narwhal has an exclusive polar distribution both currently and historically. No extinct taxon of the family or subfamily has been found in the Mediterranean.
Let me amend one of my statements. In double checking for accuracy, I did find a fossil taxon of the Family Monodontidae which was recovered from the Mediterranean basin. However, it is of Early Pliocene age (roughly 5 million years before present), and it was assigned to the Subfamily Delphinapterinae (Beluga whales). Further, the fossilized skull was recovered, and had no trace of any 'toothy' protuberances.
@@charlesmartin1121 Yeah you could be right... I"m just giving you what the text and author's commentary states. I'd be interested in learning more as to what that marine animal was...thanks for the info, I (and I'm sure other viewers) really appreciate it!
@@HistorywithCy Casatia thermophila is the genus and species. It was described in the August 2019 edition of the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. Interestingly, the paper contends that the Family Monodontidae, which presently only includes the Beluga Whale and Narwhal which inhabit Arctic or Boreal environments, may have originated in warmer habitats. There is another extinct Monodontid, Bohaskaia monodontoides, which inhabited the Pliocene waters of Virginia and North Carolina. It was named after a fellow I worked with at the Smithsonian. No protruding canine 'tusk' on that one either though.

Phoenician is named Phoenicia because of phonem which was a word we used to describe a sound and Phoenicians ware meaning we ware the first people to develop the written language that uses phonems one sound one letter and accents that later we introduced to Greeks where their Linear B developed also we ware first to create cuneiform language however we end up needing to teach that language to ancient sumer Mesopotamia nowadays Syria and Iraq as they ware during that period stronger militarily. However in meanwhile we made the Tyre on Greek and ilyrian language that means Tir and then made a big navy to defend our coast and also specifically separated island which they cannot now conquer as we have better ships and navy. We end up beating them quite a few times and encompassing areas of nowadays damask and Amman and whole region of nowadays Israel as well the parts of Sinai peninsula so we had alternative trade route not caring about Egypt pass through their land and Nile. After the Egypt in cooperation with sumer by that time called Babylon lunched attack on our lands we defended regrouped and armed navy also some of Greeks in nowadays Greece come to help with their ships we went into the Egypt and destroy their military that left known as sea people destroying Egypt. After that we regrouped and destroyed the armies of Babylon nowadays Iraq and then returned to have the continuation of trade. A little bit after that as the Egypt was not a problem for us anymore we tried to find a new land and we sent some of our explorers with military to find new cities and chart the planet the names of that groups is from words chart carta card the map and gea which means land so we the Phoenicians and Greeks send our people to chart the land that are not known to us and that is how the Carthage first a city then a nation is found in Algeria and lybia and Morocco. Our people continued going around and charting the Africa as we had superior navy we also before the common era went over Atlantic and found the land in what is nowadays Panama Honduras and Columbia Venezuela. There ware not a lot of people in expedition but yes they landed there and we even have still a city named Carthage in the Columbia nowadays. Also on other side of the ocean in pacific there ware early south china tribes the Thailand Vietnamese people alike and Indonesian people alike passing over the pacific to find some of the Mexican west border areas where they sent their people and population. During the period that was a bit before that the Indonesian navy with big ships 60 meters long and 3 stories high which ware made from pine alike wood very light and that ware protected by the oil extracted from palm trees in coast areas went and found what Egyptians called Punt Pwnt which made them option to trade with those people. Egypt didnt have good ships during that period only boats for the Nile river 10 meters to 15 meters long. They asked Pwnt to make them ships they helped them with making the 30 meters ships for goods and for travel. However after the pwnt made those ships they tried to attack the pwnt as they ware single settlement of other population which ware distant and to still more ships and goods. That didn't went well for Egypt as the Indonesian group once the story of attack arrived to Indonesian region armed more people and send quite a few boats to defend its city and yeah they ransacked Egyptian forces from the south around 1500 BCE. So Egypt first fall from Pwnt 1500 BCE then from Phoenicia in 1200 BCE why because they ware assholes then acting like pieces of shit and trying to destroy trade in between our areas with the rest of Asia and Indonesians. The whole Canaan area was Phoenicia including area where aqaba is and part of Sinai was Phoenicia and we bordered with first sumer the Mesopotamia on east after that Babylon on east. Then the Egypt on west and Greek islands on west and on north partial for a while with sumer made Assyria and on north Greek tribes as we incorporated quite a few of Assyria cities in our empire as well.
Great episode, i just enjoy yoru narration of Assyrian kings, i can imagine that was like that in that time haha :D

As a Canaanean the Phoenician as some my favorite ancestors. Same with the philistines and shasu and nabateans etc.
@Yousef Ghaneemah not quite different people with similar same people with different kind of names but with different exact people but yes they are somewhat the same in general but not exactly if you're actually being exact but they are in fact cleaning people so in general from your outside perspective they would seem the same
@Yousef Ghaneemah what you're saying there is a bit wrong
@Yousef Ghaneemah you could say all people of earth are same people in different names.
..but sometimes people specify who they are talking about.. :D
but to talk about brainwash.. let's keep it light rather because we've all been through it. :)
how do you know that you are Canaani descent ??
do you carry J1-P58 Y-DNA ? or J2b-M205 ?
because these are found in Canaan / Phoenicia from the bronze age to the Iron age (before Persians and later Alexander invaded the region and population was effected a bit)
The commonality between Canaanites and Phoenicians were probably because they were descendants of two brothers, Canaan and Phut, sons of Ham and they lived along the same Mediterranean coastline. At the time, there was no confusion as to who was who. Later, the Phoenicians may have been called Canaanites because of the land of Canaan or because of a mixing. At any rate, they should have distinct Y chromosomes branching from the same root which would be an E1 or E2 * Y chromosome. Egyptians are E3 and Cushites are E3. Nimrod, the son of Cush is the C * Y chromosome. The other D * Y chromosome is another descendant of Cush. The A and B * Y chromosomes are likely descendants of Cush as well or another son of Ham. E is where they all branch off from. The F * Y chromosome belongs to another family tree which is Ham's brother Shem. The K * Y chromosome begins the Japhethite family tree.
Noah was not a real person and none of his kin actually existed.
Christianity is defintely not real , not reality and not our true history
Canaan was the land promised to the Israelites and they were called Phoenicans by the Greeks. they are now called Hebrew. A jew is not a person but a slave. They follow religion into slavery and gain by sordid means. Land of Canaan was in the Levant and is where the name Canada comes from, in America and the Holy Roman Empire
and I could not care less what you believe or what your DNA nonsense says. Noah was definitely not a real person

Oh I love this serious a lot. This has to continue and turn into the history of Abrahamic religions too if possible!
Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate it...yes, I think that the historical development and comparison of the Abrahamic religious would be a really awesome study, though I'm sure that there are also many out there. It's a popular and interesting topic!
Why do the recitals remind me of Mandark from Dexters lab? Love it though
Dexter = egyptians, Mandark = Phoenicians.
Could the Phoenicians have teamed up with/paid the sea peoples to go sack the Hittite capital?
Wouldn't be the first time they paid someone else to do their dirty work.
The word Ba'al, was apparently just the title "Lord" in Canaanite.
Lmao
I love history
Me too! You're in the right place then! Thanks so much for stopping by, really appreciate it! More to come, stay safe!
Greek mythistory: king of Argos Aginoras, son of princes Libya, brother of Velos (or Vaal-os), lost his throne and together with his family, army and followers he went and made a new kingdom, under the coasts of Central Asia, in the area of Phenicia with Tauros (Tyros= Βull, Argeans symbol) as his capital. The royal family of Aginoras and his wife Telefassa had five children: Kadmos, Phenicas, Thassos, Kilikas, and a daughter, Europa. Kadmos returne in Greece and build up next to Thives, Thassos went in Thracea, Kilikas made near next the kingdom of Kilikia. Phenicas stay in the throne of Phenicans. There sister Europa was maried a gay from Creta named Asterionas. She had 3 sons: Minoan, Radamanthus, Sarpidonas...
lol this is hilarious lol A theonym is not a real person. lol deities do not exist in the physical realm . Europa was definitley not a person
Enjoyed and learned, thank you. Nitpick- Phoenicians', not Phoenicianses. Possessive is pronounced the same as plural in this instance.
Hi, thanks for stopping by and the pronunciation tip, appreciate it! More to come, stay safe!
In Latin, -ian is a man, like a politic-ian is a politic man, a man for the affairs of the city
Thank you. Very nice
Thank you, appreciate it! Stay safe!
I went to the Phoenician Hotel in Manama, Bahrain.. great karaoke joint 🎤
When the you got to the bronze age collapse, all I can think is "NOW THE PHOENICIANS CAN GET DOWN TO BUSINESS"
My Grandfather told me that we were Phoenician and that we were related to Archimedes, is Sea-people code for Atlanta or is it only a myth 🤔...
Goodness gracious, great Baals of Tyre!
