Here's a prediction: within three months, Simon will not remember covering anything he presents in this video.
That's a bald prediction
That long?! I'll give it a week.
3 weeks tops! Plus we get a 5 minute tangent about how he vaguely remembers this over on brain blaze!
That's okay as long as we remember it.
Three hours because he will have finished two other videos
I have said this before. But i watched a PBS documentary on The Ice Man many years ago that stated.."That the same mind that could envision a bronze axe could also create a modern computer board". They were not stupid. They just did not have the technologies available to show that they were as smart as us.
Historians have never implied they were.
Another important thing to consider is just how much we can specialize now. The more successful a society is the more of its population can be specialized workers doing things like experiments or philosophy or whatever. The further back in time you go the more time people had to devote to just simply surviving. Societies change that. You can be a carpenter and just go buy food. Back then though they would have most likely had to do their day job then still commit a lot of time at home to survival. It has a compounding effect. The more they can specialize the faster everything improves. Which leads to yet more specialization and so on.
No telling how many humans could have been brilliant scientist but lived in a hunter gather tribe and never had time to do much other than try to survive.
Or as dumb lol
They were stupid and smelled.
We can't make pyramids like those in Egypt without heavy equipment and steel tools. They were definitely not dumb.
It's stories like these that make me even angrier that people think ancient civilizations couldn't *possibly* build pyramids or giant cities in South America or wherever. There have always been philosophers, scientists, tinkers, and thinkers. We're not special just because we're several millenia beyond them.
I'm not sure what you are trying to say with "because we're several millennia beyond them." Before the Industrial Revolution, no society was particularly more advanced. Ancient Rome reached 1 million people in the first and second centuries, and no other city did until Paris, just before WW1. So, excepting the last 125 years, there was not a lot of advancement for less than 2 millennia, not "several". And there was an Ice Age 10,000 years ago which wiped out just about all evidence of previous human societies -for 190,000 years of existence. So, I guess you are right to be "angry'", but you need to figure out "several millennia" means before you complain about it.
@@squirlmy meaning that clearly people in ancient times had intelligence. Ancient Aliens people like to say "they didn't have the technology to build ____" ... meaning they think people in ancient times lacked intelligence. (And it's honestly racist most of the time.)
Basically, it's like if people 2000 years from today looked at us and said we're too primitive to have come up with computers, so it must have been aliens.
But I also see that you'd like to be pedantic, so here you go: The word "several" means more than two but not many. So if I meant 2k-3k years ago (which I did because that's the time frame we land in with the narratives in this video), "several millenia" is the correct phrase. Maybe double check definitions before you tell people they're wrong.
Ps.. Population size has nothing to do with intelligence or technology. It just means there are enough resources for a given population to survive and expand.
I don't believe aliens built the pyramids, but I do believe there are structures, stories and information that is far older than is realised, and this is part of the reason why, yes we were still pretty intelligent back then, but modernly anatomical humans have been around for alot longer than even the last ice age 10/12kyo, so it seam only logical to assume we weren't sitting around banging stones for 100ky or so 🤷🏻
They could have built the pyramids or crazy polygonal walls, but as a stone mason, I can safely say they did not cut those stones using presumed tools. Zero way. The accuracy is beyond what I can produce with modern tech.
It wasn't ancient people who built the pyramids and such....it was totally Ancient Aliens who enslaved all bigfoots (bigfeets?) on the planet to do the labor... SCIENCE!!!!

The Hindu understanding of germ theory unwittingly contributed to the persecution of the Romani in Europe during the plague. We Romani took the Vedic concept of contamination and how to avoid it with us when we left India. It proved to be very helpful in avoiding becoming ill from the plague. However Europeans looked at the way the Romani avoided getting sick and assumed it was due to a pact with the devil.
BTW, India had the concept that time could flow at different rates - one of the major effects of special relativity - around the same time as their concept of germ theory. It's even used as a plot device in ancient texts such as the Mahabharata.
Hinduism has always been intertwined with science and it's magnificent
There is a big difference between a cohesive scientific theory and an observation. Someone has to develop a system out of facts
It's in all human cultures, we definitely didn't understand the concept but can observe things and use our imagination to create those creatures which causes illnesses
It's like saying single women living in the woods with lots of cats were more intelligent/scientific because cats eats rats and they didn't contract plague
PS: read about Hiranyagarbha, he mentioned
I believe the Jews suffered from Europeans as well. The Jews tended to follow their scriptures about keeping their place clean while Europeans didn't. Rats bred and moved around European areas more than Jewish areas, which meant less plague in Jewish areas.

Thank you.
It was not dumb luck on the part of Josef. He knew the Roman leaders, and their children well, and used what we call Wisdom, experiential based insight to make what you consider a prediction of the future, but is a use of abductive logic, which is neither deductive or inductive logic, rather a third type of logic which utilizes insight. It is surprisingly effective. This is also how Leucippus constructed his Atomist view too. He did so by use of a Root Insight, similar to how Tesla came up with Alternating Current or Archimedes came up with his insightful theorems and proofs.
In regards to the "big "crunch" falling out of favor, a paper was published recently talking about how they found evidence that the acceleration of the universe has actually slowed down in recent years (cosmically speaking). Granted it's still accelerating, but at a recently slower rate

Regarding Creation Myths in Hinduism, read the Rig Veda Mandala 10, Hymn 129, known as the Creation Hymn or Song. This also states that Creation began in a Flash of heart, no mention of the Hiranyagarbha [Hiran/Hiranya = Golden, Garbha loosely means Knowledge or Knowing of "everything,] or Mundane Egg.
The Rig Veda's chapters are called Mandalas, and the Mandalas contain "hymns" which are meant to be sung in specific metres. The Rig Veda itself is far older than 3,000 years being an Oral tradition that was not meant to be altered or edited but memorized perfectly from teacher to student, as changing it was an offense to the Deva and the Supreme Being. Even removing the religious tone from this expectation of perfect memorization, changing any hymn/verse was a signal that the person relating the vedas did not understand them, so changes would be rejected immediately, unless they could be successfully debated with peers; this was vanishingly rare in occurance.
While being burned at the stake, the leader of the Knights Templar exclaimed that the Pope and King of France (who unjustly caused his murder) would both die by the end of the year to prove his innocence. They both did.
This was such an good video well made an informative and we have so much from the past that is not well understanded and can tell us about the world we live in.
I love your videos on all your channels. It's nice to watch someone who has like minded thinking. 😊
It’s so interesting how some of the ideas we subscribe to today had the seeds planted hundreds or thousands of years ago. They might not have been 💯 accurate, but it’s fascinating that early people had the concepts to begin with.
3:07 Kanada also predicted the atom about the same time, as well as molecules
10:26: also, the Hindu Dashavataram ( the 10 incarnations of vishnu ) is ordered strikingly similarly to evolutionary paths: Fish -> Reptiles -> Mammals ( a boar ) -> Half-man/Half-beast -> dwarf man -> Man
Likely others as well, that we have never heard of.
You should have mentionned Jean Perrin, the French physicist who definitely proved in 1909 that the atom existed. He got a Nobel Prize for that!
@CherryCola55French a bit strange that lot
@@Richard_the_lionheart75 Jean is French for John, if you thing of the name Jean in English, "Jeanne" is probably the best French translation. This kind of misunderstandings is common : for example, the way you pronounce Germain is almost identical to the French Germaine which is the feminine of the masculine Germain (the last syllable of the latter is pronouced with a sound that doesn't exist in English).

My prediction: in 5000 years' time death and tax are still the two unescapable facts of life
Bizarrely it was just yesterday I was thinking about Josephus' survival before being captured.
Since suicide is forbidden, killing your friends on the orders of your commander is far favourable, so Josephus ordered every third man (or was it fifth, I forget exactly) to kill his neighbour. So was Josephus incredibly lucky to be one of the only two survivors? Or was he just very good at maths under pressure?

Nice introduction of informative journy through historical predictions
That last story is pretty damn wild considering that modern seismologists can't predict earthquakes that far in advance, or at least their ability to is in dispute.
But but but...why would they ever even think of rubbing the moldy bread on a wound? I feel like this is the BIG question.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who got hung up on that!! 😂
Well, they knew that an infected wound caused almost certain death. So, faced with an infected wound, they did everything possible-they literally had nothing to lose. They tried cauterization, amputation, leeches, maggots. They also tried less extreme methods, such as poultices made of-not just mold-but also mud, ash, lye, plant sap, herbs, honey, urine, poop, ... you name it. Clearly, the patients treated with moldy bread had a higher survival rate than others, thereby reinforcing the practice.
@@nHans That does make sense. Thank you for the insight. I had never been presented it that way. I appreciate your perspective.
There are other possibilities as well! Bread tends to be absorbent and may, in a pinch, have been used to help stop bloodflow or seepage or as part of a poultice to help close wounds. Bread molds quickly, especially with little to no preservatives, so some of the bread may have been visibly moldy already or grew mold during its use as a poultice material. People notice that moldy bread “works better” and you could start to select for using more moldy bread over time.

I would add Julius Verne predictions. A lot of them.
The video title clearly says *"Ancient,"* so Verne wouldn't qualify. However, if you're interested, there are plenty of other videos on TH-cam about sci-fi predictions-including Verne's-that came true.
@@nHans You are right. I forgot about ancient part :).
I always thought that a movie on the life of Josephus should be played by a young Woody Allen. A young nebbish is made general and sees the Romans approach, he tells everyone they have to surrender but they balk at the thought. The Romans gain the advantage, and he then tells the survivors they must surrender, and they threaten to kill him. He says "JK" and comes up with a suicide plan where he is guaranteed to survive. He surrenders to the Romans and says he will convince his fellow Jews that the Romans are good guys. It does not work. He exacts a promise from Titus not to destroy the Temple but it gets destroyed. He retires to Rome to write books on how if Jews listened to him, they would be partners in Empire.
Hahahaha, and I would go watch that movie.
Woody Allen has some humor which was dryer than the wilderness through which Moses led the Jews for 40 years, looking for a land in the middle east which didn't have oil.
The concept of the Hindu story being similar to the big bang is interesting to me. I've noticed each major religion has a common element to it and that is a concept of salvation and history being cyclical. I think there was a saying I heard years ago about all stories having an element of truth, some become myth and other become legends. Yet nonetheless each story has an original concept that gets passed on throughout centuries.

We can see galaxies that are farther away than the speed of light would allow due to them having been closer to us when the light left them.
For all intents and purposes, the universe may as well be infinite, because the laws of physics as we currently understand them, and the bounds they give, have some pretty hard limits. There are certainly things outside of those limits that we can never know.

The Roman architect Vitruvius in his second book on architecture also outlined his theory that humans had descended from animals. In medieval Tibetan it was believed that humans and bears were descended from a common ancestor, replace bears, the concept was a remarkably modern one, replace bear with chimpanzee and you have our current understanding of primate evolution in a nutshell.
Humans and bears do have a common ancestor. Go back far enough and humans and insects do too.

I have a few things to comment: First, what about writers of "fiction" who have predicted things that have come to pass, such as Jules Verne who wrote of space travel and complex submarines, or the writers of "The Jetsons" who wrote of television-telephones and the like? Next, the first entry discussed in this video about Yosef ben Matityahu caused me to think of a Christian by the name of John who lived during the time of Rome's prosecution of Christians. This Christian man, John, found himself at one point hiding in exile from the Roman authorities. While in his exile and angry at Roman authority, John wrote a manifesto which predicted the end of the world as was known. This reminds me of a man from more recent history named Ted Kaczynski, who also went into hidden exile and wrote an "end of the world" manifesto. Other than the time span between the two men, the biggest differences resulting from their respective manifestos, Ted Kaczynski's led to his capture, thus ending the terror of the labeled "Unabomber," while the Christian John's manifesto was adopted by past Christian authorities into the Bible and labeled "The Book of Revelations." (Hope you comprehend what I'm getting at here.)
Finally, the concept of an animal giving birth to a different, or evolutionary evolved animal would answer the question, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" The answer would have to be, "The egg." As the animal preceding the egg would not have been a chicken, so it would have to be the egg from which the chicken emerged.
(Oh, btw, I find it difficult to comprehend how anything could suddenly exist when nothing existed before. 0 x 0 = 0. I hope this whole comment inspires thoughtful contemplation as opposed to aggressive hostility.) 😉😁
I think the Jetsons got a lot of ideas from Nikola Tesla, who predicted modern telephony and electronics. Jules Verne, that guy might have been original, unless he got it from DaVinci. I guess my point is that intellectuals used to be more of artists than they are now.
My eighth grade teacher wasn't happy when I figured out the chicken and the egg thing. I'm not particularly clever, just very logical.
@@bunyipdragon9499 nice.
There was actually no evidence that John "was angry" at Roman authorities. His writings tend to be all about the love of Jesus. Also, Revelation used imagery bizarre enough that I believe he saw something beyond our comprehension. If he was writing a work predicting the end of the known world it would have been a little ... less ... difficult to understand WTF he was saying.
@@richardthomas5362 fair enough, but I do find it illogical that his bizarre writings which were written while in an exile due to religious persecution, were given the credentials to be included into the Bible as to being the divine plan for the end of the world. A prediction that is still held up as to being "fact" (more or less, depending on who you ask.) I just don't believe it is in humanities best interest to put so much stock into such a questionable source. Please do understand that I do trust the authenticity of Biblical text, but I question the motivations of those who decided what should or should not have been included in the first place as it has become better understood today that there were many nefarious reasons for some things to be included or excluded by the residing authorities/powers of the time.
(edit: prosecution to persecution)
Thank you for the warning
Not one person with a lot of predictions getting one right, but one person out of a lot of people getting one right.

the funny thing is that "bad air" in a roundabout way became true. It was found out that still air keeps germs floating about nearby longer than if there was steady airflow and ventilation.
The air is fine, it's the microbes that are bad. The theory was completely wrong.
@@tripsaplenty1227 That's correct, but the bad reputation of the bad air theory led experts to dismiss a report that confirmed ventilation was crucial to reduce the chances of infection within buildings.
@@Appletank8
yeah, people accidentally stumble into the right course of action sometimes.
There is certainly a correlation between bad air and the spread of diseases, but - in case you didn't already know - *_correlation is not causation._* The cause was germs - and they spread through other means as well, not just air. So miasma theory was not only wrong, but also dangerous - because it contributed to the spread of diseases that could have been prevented if germ theory was known.
The Biblical teaching on cleanliness, with the washing that people had to do after touching blood or someone dead should have been instructive. Possibly doctors could have even figured out that diseases were often caused by tiny organisms. The 6th plague: “Take for yourselves handfuls of ashes from a furnace, and let Moses scatter it toward the heavens in the sight of Pharaoh. And it *will become* fine dust in all the land of Egypt, and *it will cause boils* that break out in sores on man and beast throughout all the land of Egypt.” If you ever could see concentrated airborne bacteria or viruses, they would look exactly like fine dust. I'd say that was as good as, or better a prediction (if you can call it that) than the "evolution" one, and far, far better than the miasma mess.
Also, in the book of Job, chapter 26, it's written that God, "stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth on nothing." Maybe they thought of north as the "bottom" of the earth like we think of south? Indeed, the earliest *Egyptian* maps show the south as up. And in Isaiah, the earth is noted as circular, probably understood as a sphere.
The image said “Older than you think”. I thought Simon was going to say that he is older than we all think he is! 😂

We tend to underestimate our ancestors, their world was harsher and a lot more unforgiving, they had to be sharper and keener than us today to make it through, the fact that they managed to figure that much with far less evidence and tools is some proof of their merits.
So I have a theory on the expansion of the Universe.
the Universe is like an elastic band. before you pick it up it is inert and motion less (Before the Big Bang), when you start to stretch it (The Big Bang), it expands till you are unable to stretch it any further, (the Universe expanding), but if you keep trying to stretch it past this point, one of two things happen,
1. the Elastic Band snaps back (The Big Crunch)
2. it Snaps
Given time anything can and probably will happen. If someone talks enough shit and makes enough predictions they will eventually get lucky
Hence my reference username to being a Muon with the atoms and the particles beyond what make sense to most humans... Ahhh, science. :3 Thanks, Simon and team!! :D
Jeez, close the close door!
I still think the universe could just be in the early stage of expansion. Just like the first fraction of a second of an explosion it’s accelerating. For all we know the deceleration could happen in a few billion years. If it is cyclical I wonder if life in the 2nd half thinks the universe starts at set size and the shrinks?
Interesting thoughts 🤔 I like it
That bit about Anaximander of Miletus is interesting because I had always been confused as to how in the catholic deuterocanonical book The Wisdom of Solomon 19:18-19 it mentions water creatures turning into land creatures and vice versa. This book was written around 200BC at the earliest, so hundreds of years after Anaximander of Miletus lived, but perhaps that's all that remainded of his ideas after the greek-jewish exchange of culture and ideas that took place post Alexander The Great?
And if anyone is wondering scholars aren't sure of the intended meaning behind Wisdom 19:18-19 so what's written down in english translations of it are purely literal. Although it's suspected that it was utilizing a common analogy for the time (the context seems to imply an analogy that all things change with time, even things we consider unchangable) that's lost its original meaning.
To think that 1500yrs ago we knew just about half of what we already know… and that it’s only been the last 200yrs where we’ve started to advance again. With the last 20-50yrs being the most successful so far.
Go back in time 100 years and that same statement would be true!
Aristotle did not add the fifth element. Ether has been the first of five elements in India since before the Greek's milked their first goat. Aristotle was SCHOLAR and LEARNED about this.
You'll have to provide some proof for that. After a quick search I could only find it mentioned starting with the ancient Greeks.
@@123allecs I appreciate and welcome your invitation. :-) Ayurveda is the more than 5,000 year old "India" science-of-life practiced even today, and dates back to the writings of the Upanishads. This is undisputed fact that you can check. This branch of health science has related the universe to its students in the 5 elements for as long. Aristotle "adapted" [sic] aether into the Greek pantheon of basic elements in the 4th century BCE. I hope that these historical facts help you agree that this knowledge is firmly established in the east before Aristotle's lifetime. Now, there is no proof of what I suggest next, but it is widely accepted that this knowledge very likely came to Aristotle late in life, as his student Alexander The Great conquered modern day Pakistan, and at such a time that he would be respected enough to make such world changing shift in scientific view. I look forward to your reply or further conversation on this.
How did the Greeks knew about atoms? Honest question
And who exactly were the twitwaffles who burned all of Anaximander's writings?
Do they believe that I’d sit and seriously watch any of this!? My intuition is greater than they can imagine!
You sat and commented on this, though...

We really don’t know how old the vedas are. What do I mean ? Also there’s a black hole crunch. What do I mean? Well as enough time goes by and the black holes actually start to eat each other increasing there there gravity and eventually as they come together, faster and faster exerting more and more gravity on space time things will slow and start falling back to the center of gravity and eventually pull everything back into it even swallowing the fabric of the universe. So everything that ever existed will crunch into a singularity and eventually rupture forth,reseeding all of space and time.
The funniest or most interesting part of this is that it fits the circular universe described by Hinduism. Also this has real implications for humanity because each time it would become a reboot. And every time a new universe starts it’s probably started over in the exact same nature repeating everything next time exactly like this time..
You did mention the Four Elements of Earth, Wind, Fire and Water and didn't do a refence to the band or Fifth Element movie? What has the TH-cams come too?

Well the atomist guy was both right and wrong. The basic idea is right, but atom CAN be broken up into smaller particles. But yeah, eventually there comes a point when that stops being possible, when you've broken the atom up into particles that can't themselves be broken up.
The very last prediction about the earthquake could have been as simple as catching on to animals' behavior prior to the earthquake happening, and maybe things are a little less complicated. I'm not sure if I have the idea right, but I heard that a lot of times when we are presented with a multitude of possibilities, the simplest one might be the most realistic choice or answer. I'm probably not saying that right, but I hope I got the meaning across 😅
- Why do you show old church slavonic (which is about 1000 AD) script upside down at 12:42?
- It's all Greek to me
Are you related to the artist of Whistler's Mother (McNeill)?

I dont think the universe expanding quicker really speaks against the big crunch theory because thats just as far as we can see and tell we dont know whats beyond that expanse
One day in the great planet of the United States of mars, people will be able to throw their trash into a cabinet and that cabinet will tell you what other trash it needs in order to build certain items for that cabinet to spit out.
“Trash cabinet”: please see your current list of items I can make with the current materials…
Could it be possible that our 3 dimensional existence causes an incorrect perception of the expansion of the universe? Perhaps some quantum extra dimensional calculus is involved whereby the expansion, in reality, is really the universe expanding into itself. Since the universe is supposedly infinite, or theoretically, what we might wish to perceive as a one directional expansion, is inherently flawed.
the big freeze is another space expansion thing...I think.
Make video on Indian USBRL Railway project in Himalayas linking KASHMIR to JAMMU and rest of INDIA by train
A person can receive information that is otherwise impossible to know. I knew that a vehicle displaying all the signs of making a right turn would drive straight. There was no way I would have guessed; I just knew. I avoided a collision by heeding that thought.
Krimi is the general word for germs in many Indian languages. Also hiranyagarbha is possibly correct as there is definitely more and more support for multiple big bangs. Folks should take more attention of ancient Indian philosophy. Also I’m sure the vaibhashika theory of atomism predated democritus by…
I've always thought Josephus was a Roman mole from the start. His account of his capture is the only one we have and it's pretty convenient he was still alive to surrender. I have no evidence but that's definitely an ancient story that seems untrue.
10:33 Looks like the Dos Equis guy. The most interesting man in the world.
The problem with disputing the big crunch or the big bounce, is the explaining away the insane amount of superfluids and how they'd react under the pressure.
GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!
like a day ago, i had a thought about "what if simon covered ancient predictions" and i was gonna suggest it lol
3:51 Hindus were talking about atoms and subatomic particles well before the Greeks.
Guys you need the turn the volume up on your videos. This is really quiet.
The transition music didn't seem to fit very well, but it still gets the job done.
Rabbi Nachmanides also posited a big band style origin roughly 1000 years ago.
