Evelyn you are so gifted! I love all of your content. You are an eloquent story teller who brings history to life with beautiful imagery and mesmerizing narration. Thank you so much for sharing your talents and taking fascinating history to the next level!❤
I do so enjoy your voice as you share history with us. You’re a very talented storyteller. If history classes and videos were all narrated by you history classes would be extremely popular because your method of delivery makes them come. History is such a fascinating subject, but it is often ruined by teachers who just drone on and give lists of dates, places and people and who forget the “story” part of the word “history”. I was blessed with a father and his parents along with many inspiring history teachers who, like you, brought history to life. Thank you.🙏
@@monicacall7532 ohhh friend thank you! I agree!! We have to remember all of these people had hopes and dreams and fears! It’s always my goal to make the history come alive. So glad you had wonderful teachers and parents in your life. 💚💚💚💚
Robert the Bruce is one of my favorite. So sad that they destroyed the royal graves. Very disgraceful! The remains of so many historical people lost. I'm glad they found a body believed to be Robert and gave the man a respectable grave again.
@stevenleppard1072 history is part of our country, good or bad. And history will repeat itself if we forget about it. Buildings, monuments, statues should be left alone as reminders. Even the bad reminders. We must remember not just the good that has happened. I live in the states where idiots pulled down statues that hurt their feelings. Lincolns statue was painted on. A church was burned down. And why??? People can be so illogical!!!
I'm so far removed from Scotland, but it calls to me. In our genealogy I think it goes back to Princess Marjorie (?). Did Robert have a daughter? ❤❤❤ I'm so glad I stumbled on this channel! ❤😊
Princess Marjorie married Walter, the High Steward of Scotland, and their son became Robert II, the first Stewart/Stuart king. She was the eldest daughter of Robert I by his first wife Isabella of Mar, Countess of Carrick who died before her husband became king. Marjorie herself did not long survive her son's birth, being said to have fallen from her horse and gone into premature labour. She was twenty. It has been said that statistically every Scot is likely to be descended from Robert Stewart and thus Marjorie. Robert had fourteen surviving children from two marriages and many illegitimate children; given that the population of Scotland in the fourteenth century was between a half million and a million - before the Black Death - it is estimated that, in the centuries since and assuming normal intermarriage, he is the ancestor of most of current Scotland! 😂
Ok, but the part of him wanting his body partioned, and buried in different places? After a little roundtrip to the holy land in case of the heart? That's wild 👀 Fascinating story, though 👍🏻
Many royals had their visceral (heart, entrails) buried in different places. The idea was you would have more people in different places praying for your soul.
@@EvelynEdwards How interesting. I knew, bones were often taken as relics after the fact. But I hadn't heard of people deliberately partitioning their bodies like that. I also would have expected the Catholic church to not be on board with the whole 'desecration of a corpse' thingy. Wasn't that the reason, why they objected to opening up corpses for scientific research?
The Catholic Church is okay with donating one's body to science and also donating organ parts for the living who need it. It is seen as being reverent and an act of charity with the goal being to help others.
@@marnatz5 Oh, I know that that is the modern take 👍🏻. I was just wondering about what it was like in medieval times. I did a bit of googling and it seems, that popular literature/movies and even 'history documentaries' don't necessarily represent this correctly. But then, they tend to get a lot of things wrong about that time period. But I would have to dig much deeper, to be sure what exactly was the official doctrine when.

@@EvelynEdwards YW!! 😃Did you get all of the footage in person? Always have wondered how you cover so much ground! It is amazing either way.
@@brandonfletcher3535 yes always! We travel to historic sites 4 days a week. Over 200 a year. 💚💚💚
@@EvelynEdwards That is awesome! Thank you for bringing it to us. Not only for the memories but also those of us who cannot get there. 😃👍💜

Just finished the video 👏👏👏👏🍿well done adding a new feel to this historical story 🌹
@@SylviaSchleicher-z7r thank you Sylvia! 🥰🥰💚🏰
I wish the people in history didnt damage/destroy burials. What a pity.
Me too. People want to destroy the images and structures that they feel oppressed them.
