In case anyone was driven crazy (like me) at not being able to read the quote on his fireplace, it says: Old wood to burn, old books to read, old friends to trust. Based on a quote by British philosopher and statesman Francis Bacon. The more you know!
Hello Milo, not sure if you'll see this, but I've got some experience professionally gaffing for film sets. The hotspots and uneven exposure levels are always tricky for setups like yours, but since you aren't loving your interior light, you should try: A sheer curtain/sheet over the window to gently diffuse the light. Some reflection sources in the room to brighten the left side up while still keeping natural sunlight as your primary light source. And if refelction sources arent possible or won't hit enough of you as you move in and out of the reflected source, try a large extremely white sheet hanging like a divider to your left just out of frame. It will reflect a ton of light back at you at whatever angle you hang it at, and brighten up your background too. Hope it helps, and love your content!
@@revinaque1342 Thank you! I really just hope it helps, his videos are already beautiful so I don't think it'll help too much, but just a bit possibly.
I live on the Suffolk (England) coast and often think about Doggerland when looking out to sea. I’m also a masters student now of human evolution and behaviour. Thank you for this video brother
@ To be fair human evolution and behaviour is kind of a blanket term for what I do. I generally study primates and what they can tell us about how our hominid ancestors behaved. I spent a lot of time in the field following baboons for example. I’ll try and answer your question however. I believe it has a lot less to do with us being human per say. Evolution has made it so that the animal kingdom is stacked full of symbiotic relationships between species. In a taxon closer to us, certain populations of hamadrayas baboons have been seen to have dogs around them and kidnap young pups. They have also been seen to try and play with hyrax. This tendency to want to interact with other species seems to have been selected for throughout the animal kingdom. Obviously this is nuanced because inter species conflict poses some natural barriers. The biophilia hypothesis proposes that humans possess an inate tendency to want to connect with natural things (and that this might have a genetic basis). This is because in our evolutionary history, those who wanted to connect with nature would be more likely to survive. In short this capacity for love of animals seems to be prevalent throughout the animal kingdom as it has a benefit in terms of fitness. I suspect we are just more able to express our love for other species in a way we understand. I hope I answered your question somewhat
@ yea I lived in an old pub through some of the worst of it, saw lots of people shallys go in, they shouldn’t of built them on sand. But at the same time nobody was surprised except from Londoner, its been eroding for a very long time
For anyone looking for the important parts of the video: 3:04 - Alcoholic Cat 4:35 - Taking notes on the laptop 5:17 - Scanning the terrain 6:38 - Unjustly held against their will 7:50 - Escaped from arm jail 22:42 - Curious about the cabinet of curios 24:45 - Extremely graceful descent from the cabinet 42:44 - Returned to captivity There's also some stuff about some underwater stuff in there, kindof annoying how youtubers pad their run time with irrelevant stuff.
Agreed - the true depth of human history is always so much richer and more interesting to me than our mythology - not that I don't also love those fictional stories that these modern day conspiracies spring from. As with archaeology, so with literature - context really matters.
@@emilianorios4761 its just too new. these people dont read any papers and since legacy media hasnt picked up on it yet, theres little to conspire about. by contrast, atlantis (and in wider sense antiquity and lost civilizations) has been sitting in collective consciousness for centuries or even millenia. and even the concept of aliens has had half a century time to 'grow'
14:59 For Mr. Rossi and the curious; according to a quick dip down a rabbit hole, the Silver Pit was so named by fishermen for generations because it was abundant in fish, particularly sole which had high market value. Thus, it was considered just as valuable as silver to them; like "silver from the sea," if you will.
We now go to Filip with his rebuttal about how Doggerland might possibly actually be a giant elevator to the Hollow Earth, powered by the power plants inside the Pyramids.
Clearly, it's proof that there was a sunken Atlantis where giants lived, but THEY don't want us to find out. Google Debunker are probably gonna blame it on Ice Ages and Glaciers...
Ummm did you forget about the Doggerland free speech silenced society that made a theory that states that it's actually a proof of a flat earth because 4 sections and their are 4 components of a flat earth the dome the sun the moon and the earth
Also from the netherlands , and the energy company TenneT presented a plan for creating a island on the doggerbank in 2016. The project name is the North Sea Wind Power Hub the artificial island would have power storage units to store surplus wind energy from the surrounding windparks, and be connected to the Scottish English Dutch Danish and german electrical grids.
Such a big project would be a great opportunity for archaeologists to investigate too. If they're already sending people out and digging around, may as well kill two birds with one stone!
Thank you Milo! I had the privilege of teaching a 5th grade class after Christmas break. Their teacher was out for year on medical and despite the fact I was a HS math teacher, I took them on. To make a long story short, I needed science material and I used several of your videos for science lessons and the kids loved you!😻
when people ask "where you would go if you had a timemachine", i always answer "i would love to walk in the lost forest of doggerland". thank you so much for making a video about it! that place always fascinated me and i'm so glad you're doing it justice.

Hey Milo, have you heard of the Shaman of Bad Dürrenberg? She lived about 9000 years ago and her burial was discovered in Saxony Anhalt, Germany. The bits and pieces about her life archeologists were able to put together are absolutely fascinating. Now here's one of the most amazing details: She died _several centuries before_ the lake Agassiz incident you mentioned, that caused a sudden drop in global temperatures and must have made life miserable for the hunter-gatherer societies of those days. Close to her grave site (which was isolated and without stone markers and with no other burials or other archeological finds of any kind nearby) several additional shaman masks were buried around the time the consequences of the cooling must have impacted them. That means the hunter gatherers of that area had an oral tradition going back for about 600 to 700 years, remembering this powerful shaman and kind of called her for ancestral help in a time of need.
I studied Geoarchaeology and love looking at archaeology through the lens of how we as humans impacted our environment and how our environment impacted us! so this popping up is a rare win for TH-cam's algorithm. Really enjoyed it, keep up the good work and as a show of restraint I won't explain the pronunciation of Ouse & Norfolk 😅
Milo you can't just come into a room and state that it's September, with that level of confidence. You had me checking my calendar just to make sure it's October.
@@Apollo_is_Gaming Not just a few weeks, he recorded this on a chilly September morning in the year 1931, this one's been in the works for close to a century.
I have degrees in both Mediaeval history and Anthropology, I always joke about the importance of being unemployable in more than one field, so I am totally amazed to your ability to turn these fields into these videos and giving lectures at universities. Your popularizing the knowledge that has formed so much of my life gives me hope for the future.
I feel you, I got Latin and Archaeology with a focus on Egyptology. I do have a job at uni but only because my Latin prof offered me a job three week in. Our degrees are pretty unemployable otherwise and I like you joke. xD But also, really really cool fields you work in!
I'm with you - I studied archaeology and bio-anthropology ('stones and bones') and mediaeval studies - in Australia. Not a lot of call for the latter down our way, to be honest. But don't despair - after thirty years working in many, many entirely unrelated fields, I'm finally working as an archaeologist again! Back in my Happy Place and loving myself sick. 🤩
New here and I’m actually really impressed with this video. I say your short and was like what’s doggerland. The info, great. The set, perfect. The b-roll… the b-roll, impeccable
I was really hoping for a Doggerland video. I fell down a really deep rabbit hole at one point after listening to Santiano and I gotta tell you this shit is interesting af
Just wanna say: Thank you, thank you, THANK you for citing your sources. There are so many video essayists that just don't bother posting a bibliography and seeing one is just an incredible breath of fresh air
Woah, look at those chapter animations! Big props to the editor, those look gorgeous! Also, thanks to the TH-cam autocaptions, in addition to Doggerland, I am now extremely interested in "Dog Ireland".
How have we gone from one man, alone and not funded, drawing a decent map of the sea floor, without sonar, 100 years ago, to people nowadays thinking the earth is flat?
Too many people spend too much time on the internet or with a screen in their face to ever pay attention to the world the way people use to. Even just 50 years ago they knew more with less.
There's always been people who do incredible things and people who believe in conspiracies. Nothing new just different scales. We have plenty of people that are alive right now that are researching/discovering new things and developing new technologies :) I know it's sometimes easy to become overwhelmed and feel hopeless when confronted with certain ways of thinking but it can be very refreshing and hopeful to look into the more inspiring people in this world and see what they're doing
Since humans were there, it does make me wonder if the stories of lost kingdoms/lands beneath the waves might have some connection to a shared oral tradition talking about these places that no longer exist. My Archaeology prof always used to say there were grains of truth in most myths that even the storytellers no longer understand. I loved this, btw! ❤
@@resisilobus3191 The joke is that most research papers usually have more than 3 authors on them, and when cited in another research paper, this gets shortened to (main author) et al. which is shorthand for main author and everyone else. It could also be understood as someone's last name, jokingly of course
Man i love lost contenints/landmasses, like the thought of an area almost entirely lost to time is so cool, and its amazing to hear about the ones that actually once existed
@@averylividmoose3599 Yes; but that doesn't equate to knowing the land existed. What's really interesting is that there is no 'history' we can tie into it. Just geography. And now archaeology and paleoclimatology etc as Milo pointed out.
Watching this channel evolve from, “weird archeologist guy debunks conspiracy theories.” To, “weird archeologist guy teaches archeology in better and more interesting ways than schools.” Was a trip I’d gladly go on again.
It's a bit of both, isn't it? Trying to teach something to people who "know the truth" is as ineffective as finding flaws in said truth without offering anything in its place. I'm glad to see both sides of the approach had some coverage, not just by Milo but many more inspiring and educated TH-camrs.
I recently discovered you thanks to TH-cam's algorithm. I am 66 years old and although this may not really be relatable to you, my childhood hero was secretly Mr. Spock from Star Trek, because, at my young age of seven, I was fascinated by any and all kinds of science. I was certain that the future for mankind would look something like Star Trek with science minded individuals pursuing truth through science. While clearly that future has yet to come I still hold hope that Logic and the perseverance of facts will overcome our present, for lack of a better term, Idiocracy. You are a super bright spot for this aging armchair scientist. I appreciate every moment of your videos that I have watched. May you and many more young minds like yourselves keep collaborating and keep fighting for science!! (Insert now a 10 minute standing ovation)
We'll give them back at some point. I swear...maybe...probably. I mean all this stuff is really old, you don't really need it back do you? I'm sure you've got cooler newer stuff so....
You're missing an important difference between tundra and steppe. The former does not thaw, and so plants cannot punch their roots through the permafrost so only algae, lichen, and fungi thrive. The latter allows for grasses and trees as they can set down roots.
You should know Tundra does have scrubby grasses, small bushes, flowers, even a few low lying trees (juniper types). Permafrost is frozen at the water table, so anywhere from inches to meters down. But plant roots don't typically punch deep anyways; they spread outward because the nutrients and air are only located near the surface. The grade-school textbook pictures where the roots are a big ball, mirroring the canopy, are a lie. It's a pretty flat shallow disc of roots. The reason trees don't grow tall in the tundra is the exposure to freezing high-speed winds which damage any tree that isn't grazed by hungry animals.
Just ten seconds before the Steppe Mammoth joke, I considered just how far this channel has come... It's still wildly fun and informative, but the production quality has made nice leaps and is even still growing. I love it
Greetings from Finland! I'm watching this with my cat. She climbed in my lap, and stared at your cat. When your cat wasn't in the video anymore, my cat started to try to catch your hands from the phone screen. Fun for the whole family!
It's kind of unfortunate that HP Lovecraft never found out about Doggerland during his lifetime. Can you imagine his anglophile ass learning about a secret land connecting his beloved England to the mainland, swallowed by the waves? He'd have made a metric TON of stories set in that locale. You could hide all kinds of antedeluvian horrors there.
He wrote a lot of archaeology into his stories before the theories were replaced or hoaxes debunked, like having the narrator date skulls against the Piltdown man in 'The Rats in the Walls'. I wish he could have lived longer and seen things that would challenged his perspectives, more generally. iykyk
Thanks, Kayleigh, for introducing me to this guy--I absolutely love you guys and your much-needed pushback on pseudoscience! I have an M.A. in archaeology and realize that public engagement in this science and many others has been historically low, despite high public interest (hence the huge appeal of the pseudoscience industry). You both are doing a huge service by bringing real science to the masses, making it entertaining and hugely accessible. Thank you both and keep up the great work!!
My first look at your videos and I’m very impressed..Being a Brit and having fond memories of going on holiday to Walton on the Naze looking at the North Sea funny that once the Naze would have been inland.A fun fact about Walton on the Naze is once way back between ice ages the river Thames came out there and would have ran into Doggerland. Thank you for a wonderful video and all the best from the U.K🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
I'm always impressed by the width and depth of Et Al's experience and knowledge. They manage to be involved with everything and have been doing so for a long time.
While I do get a chuckle out of the running gag of your freezing cold filming studio it is really nice to see this background come together and that natural light is to die for!
Hey man I just wanna say thank you i never got to finish school (also didn't learn proper grammar in sorry) and I never understood anything or found it easy to learn anything but since I stumbled across you I've been really interested since I love your humour and jokes and seriousness but mostly I love your passion about the things you talk about I've learned so much from you it hasn't always stuck I don't know why but I enjoy it though I think if I had you as a teacher you wouldve helped me and if maybe be able to learn easier because the way you explain things is awesome and it's really interesting I also have to add I'm British (love your jokes on us btw) and I actually have never ever heard about any of this ever this is the first time I've heard about doggerland until I saw your short on it so thanks for that too it's really interesting but I'm happy you love what you do because people like me can come learn be entertained at the same time and also look forward to the next video so again thank you love you and your content keep up the amazing work you and your team do! stay curious
if you didn't understand or find it easy to learn, my dear that's on your teachers not you! You are quite obviously smart and capable of learning .. with even a desire to do so ... Please do not think that is on you. You did not fail. You were failed. And yes Milo is a great teacher!
TH-cam has a lot of explainer-channels. There is a lot of cool stuff to learn here. I hope you can find your own way to acquiring knowledge, even if you were not sucessful in school. Good luck! :)
I didn't finish school either, dropped out in high school, lots of family and ppl ik dropped out in elementary, plenty of people don't finish school, nothing to be ashamed of. And trust me they never rlly teach this in school anyway until you get up to a post secondary I would imagine, I finished history at a grade 12 level a few years early before I dropped out and we never learned anything this cool.
Hey dude! I was told throughout my entire high-school experience that I would never excel at science and math. It kept me away from anything remotely related to those fields for years. As a dog trainer, I discovered behavior science and that opened the door for me to expand my knowledge of other sciences. It's never too late. The fault lies with bad teachers and schools, not with you!
He’s an archeologist and a history nerd I’d say this has everything to do with the main content of spreading knowledge about the worlds past and sharing his interest the channel isn’t just him roasting people on their conspiracy theory beliefs occasionally while debunking them it’s just an archeology channel just cause a bull of the content is the debunking on shorts form content the long form content is mostly focused on actual Archeology and then the occasional pseudo-archeology stuff like with the Awful Archeology series and such
@@CaelumTheWolf Did you read my whole comment...? I was just saying that while the channel is about archaeology, I love getting to see Milo with his pets! 😅 I've actually seen every single video on both of his TH-cam channels multiple times, I know what his content is about, and that's what I'm here for! But the way he is with his pets is a huge bonus as someone who loves pets so much I work with them for a living.
Its raining out tonight in rural Michigan. The stars are hiding behind heavy cloud cover. Im laying in bed, nursing a beer and cuddling my dog, hearing about a wonder of ancient human history, hidden underwater halfway across the world. What a time to be alive.
Fun fact from me, the local Norwegian guy. If you look at the Norwegian, swedish and Danish coasts (except for the part of the danish coast that was part of dogger land) you will see and underground cliff like thing under the water, about 0,5 too 5 miles off the coast (counts where your looking) this is the remains of this glacial maximum because water levels were lower and so there was more land, therefore the coasts where farther out, and so when the water came back in and the way the glaciers melted and pulled back created these underwater cliffs or hills. This is very cool too look at in my opinion (as a Norwegian person, this is the most interesting thing about Norway other than Vikings and social democracy) but there was believed for a short while due too this cliffs underwater that dogger land extended further north but we’ve later found that it doesn’t, I don’t know the full explanation for all the shtuff but it’s interesting
@@HappyBeezerStudios Not just Oslo. There are many places along the coast of Norway where you can see old boathouses sitting way above the shoreline, sometimes even with rails leading down into... nothing. These are in no way ancient, being at most a couple of centuries old and usually much less. We Norwegians have found a way to expand our country without lifting a finger.
@@annominous826 it is extremely interesting yeah, we pulling a Dutch lol but it is always interesting, you could expect the opposite because ice is melting but currenlty the oceans are pulling away from Norway as if breathing in slowly (extremely slowly)
Great video again, as always man! As a European here. I'd like to state a constructive critique. I would appreciate if all the measurments in miles foots yards elbows and football fields (xd) were translated to common metric system. I know you put a lot of effort in this as you translate some of them, and it's difficult to have all this in mind when writing scripts. But I think that would make these videos more accessible out of the USA. Love your videos, mate!
@@catocall7323 the difference is that one is an international standard used literally everywhere, while the other is a vestigial use of medieval units in a single country. Most of youtubers (that I watch) that use SI as the main system do still include imperial conversions though.
The weeping willow is all over my home town, quite close to the Dutch coastline, and my absolute favourite tree! So glad I found your channel, been watching it for hours a day while working. Time well spent :)

Bro this is top tier. The subject matter with visuals, the delivery, the backdrop, the cat, the jokes, and superb editing (the tiny music bits had me rolling lol)
Having only *just* discovered your channel, I have to say, watching this video after marathoning your Ancient Apocalypse series was so much fun, like oh wow, look at this place ancient people lived that got submerged in the ocean and all the cool research and evidence we have for it! It gives the Ancient Apocalypse debunk a good contrast, putting into perspective what sort of stuff we *can* find out from that time.
Thank you for featuring Kayleigh, I did not know about her channel until now! I absolutely LOVE archaeology and history, even if I didn't study it, I wish I could.
I cannot stress enough how important the Miniminuteman team has been, is, and shall be for the quality of content on this platform. This episode is wonderfully written, hilariously edited, Excellently cited and importantly it had a cat in it & Milo called em a little baby-man, man. 110%, A+. Also the topic is fascinating and you can tell from the passion & diligence that the creators don't just think so, they Know so too. and really man when the cat did that little prrw I was all like, "aAWWw🥹😂🥹, little baby man!", man. Thousand outta ten Channel.
This was great - Kayleigh was awesome - and I'm so excited for the Lake Hitchcock video! A cool site visit for a future video may be going to the Beneski Museum of Natural History at Amherst College where Hitchcock's collections are.
I found your channel via the Green Sahara video, and I was so excited to see you release another long-form teaching video! The debunking videos are interesting but I especially love the more positive ones like this and Green Sahara.
Welcome to the community I hope u have as much fun as I have PS: Googldybunkers is a term we use bc fillip Ziba a conspiracy theorist calls people who do research googldybunkers so we say it as a inside miniminuteman joke. Sry that was long
I must say I'm very impressed, this guy is a fantastic communicator. He's clearly an academic but doesn't talk like one. I live in the east of England and was aware of Doggerland, but this video has highlighted how little I knew about it. Good work. Subscribed.
Finally making a block of time to give this the attention it deserves. (And share.) Thank you for the video Milo, it was very interesting to hear more about this place from the depths of history.
38:32 It took me like 7 rewatches of this part in particular to realize the weird noise I was hearing was disembodied Milo saying "For all my European viewers"
thank you milo for talking about our doggerland i think its the unsung hero of dutch and englisch prehistory and ofcourse thanks for giving our kayleigh a shout out and doing a colab you sir are awesome many greets from the netherlands
Thank you for covering this topic. I live in Northern Germany(Schleswig-Holstein), so Doggerland would be an hour drive away ;-) I think fishing nets were kinda cashin´ up some arrowheads and burnt coal from campfires, so it was discovered... I really enjoy your content! Keep on, Milo!

@@stickiedmin6508 I was on vacation in Chester-Le-Street in 2018 for two weeks and we paid a visit to Bamburgh Castle(at the sea). I loved the landscape/scenery.

Sorry again, I'm just joking. Nice evening to you ✌🏻
@@gorfrob9514 Pretty close to me. I live in Seaham, on the Durham coast. Apparently, we're quite famous now, for our sea-glass. A hundred or so years ago, there was a bottleworks (making glass bottles) right next to the town harbour. While it still existed, any stuff that got broken, or was defective in some way, would just get dumped in the sea. Tons, and tons of glass over the years, all different colours. As a result, little, rough glass pebbles have been washing up on to the local beaches ever since. I grew up here, but didn't realise that our beach was at all special because of it - I thought _all_ beaches were like that. Oh, Lord Byron lived here for a brief while too. He got married here to Lady Milbanke, whose family were heavily involved in digging the first local coal mines, building the harbour and the town that grew around them. He absolutely despised the place, which is quite ironic given that the local council have been naming streets, buildings and shopping centres after him ever since. The Byrons' daughter, Ada Lovelace was also a famous mathematician who worked closely with Charles Babbage - inventor of one of the very first mechanical computers. The Angel grows on you. I hated it at first, but got to be really fond of it eventually. I went to university in Newcastle, living there for about ten years. It felt like The Angel was standing guard over the city, arms out, holding back all the southerners and keeping them away. If I'd been away for any reason, The Angel was one of the first landmarks I'd see on my way back that let me know I was home. I'd imagine it was saying, "It's okay Stickie! Get behind me, quick! They won't get past me."
@bloodyfluffybunny7411 I disagree about Kayleigh and avoid her videos since she uncritically hosted Lee Berger and let him talk about unscientifically confirmed theories about Homo Naledi when it hadn't been through peer review (which it later didn't pass peer review). More scientific channels were skeptical about the claims he made (ex: Gutsick Gibbon). Also, her thumbnails are cringe.
I am surprised that Kayleigh's title includes ft miniminuteman and includes him in the title shot, but this video does not refer to Kayleigh in the title or picture.
What does "dogging" mean elsewhere? I've only ever heard it used in the US to describe the action of a person or animal following you very closely or right at your heels.

Milo doing a video on Doggerland, one of the Pleistocene cradles of Homo sapiens? A place that, now even submerged for millenia, likely holds a wealth of artifacts, sites, and knowledge? Though the rest has been worn away by the water? Perfection.
@@a_lethe_ion @TheDanEdwards Who the fuck cares about that shit? It is irrelevant. On a list of the interesting things about ancient human settlements, the amount of pigmentation is not even there.
For people wondering why it was called doggerland, the areas of sea around Britain are all named (to allow people to reference them more specifically than just 'the sea', mostly used for things like weather forecasts nowadays) and the one next to Norfolk which Doggerland is under is called Dogger.
Fun fact: we actually know of a recorded battle within that region, and it's called The Battle of Jutland, a naval battle fought between Germany and Britain during the first World War.
And a few years before that was the "Dogger Banks Incident", in which some *very* confused Russian battleships fired on English fishing boats, believing them to be the Japanese navy.
Can't wait for this, i find sunken landmasses that humans used for generations fascinating. Like how parts of Alexandria are underwater, or in the case of Port Royal completely underwater intact

Hello Milo, not sure if you'll see this, but I've got some experience professionally gaffing for film sets. The hotspots and uneven exposure levels are always tricky for setups like yours, but since you aren't loving your interior light, you should try:
A sheer curtain/sheet over the window to gently diffuse the light.
Some reflection sources in the room to brighten the left side up while still keeping natural sunlight as your primary light source.
And if refelction sources arent possible or won't hit enough of you as you move in and out of the reflected source, try a large extremely white sheet hanging like a divider to your left just out of frame. It will reflect a ton of light back at you at whatever angle you hang it at, and brighten up your background too.
Hope it helps, and love your content!

The fact that I’ve never heard of this but we’re constantly barraged by Atlantis conspiracies is an actual crime
Agreed - the true depth of human history is always so much richer and more interesting to me than our mythology - not that I don't also love those fictional stories that these modern day conspiracies spring from. As with archaeology, so with literature - context really matters.
That's what I thought when I saw Milo's short.

14:59 For Mr. Rossi and the curious; according to a quick dip down a rabbit hole, the Silver Pit was so named by fishermen for generations because it was abundant in fish, particularly sole which had high market value. Thus, it was considered just as valuable as silver to them; like "silver from the sea," if you will.
I love small bits of lore like that
Fascinating, thank you! 🙏

We now go to Filip with his rebuttal about how Doggerland might possibly actually be a giant elevator to the Hollow Earth, powered by the power plants inside the Pyramids.
Clearly, it's proof that there was a sunken Atlantis where giants lived, but THEY don't want us to find out.
Google Debunker are probably gonna blame it on Ice Ages and Glaciers...
Yeah, but aliens obviously carved that harpoon.

As someone from the Netherlands I can only say: give us a nice budget and a year or 5 and we can make it a reality again 😎😎
Also from the netherlands , and the energy company TenneT presented a plan for creating a island on the doggerbank in 2016.
The project name is the North Sea Wind Power Hub the artificial island would have power storage units to store surplus wind energy from the surrounding windparks, and be connected to the Scottish English Dutch Danish and german electrical grids.
Such a big project would be a great opportunity for archaeologists to investigate too. If they're already sending people out and digging around, may as well kill two birds with one stone!

Hey Milo, have you heard of the Shaman of Bad Dürrenberg? She lived about 9000 years ago and her burial was discovered in Saxony Anhalt, Germany. The bits and pieces about her life archeologists were able to put together are absolutely fascinating. Now here's one of the most amazing details: She died _several centuries before_ the lake Agassiz incident you mentioned, that caused a sudden drop in global temperatures and must have made life miserable for the hunter-gatherer societies of those days. Close to her grave site (which was isolated and without stone markers and with no other burials or other archeological finds of any kind nearby) several additional shaman masks were buried around the time the consequences of the cooling must have impacted them. That means the hunter gatherers of that area had an oral tradition going back for about 600 to 700 years, remembering this powerful shaman and kind of called her for ancestral help in a time of need.
Omg, that's amazing!!
Everyone boost so Milo sees this!!
Milo please!
I now know 2 Saxony-Anhalt history facts (second one being the famous disc of Nebra)
That sounds very cool!
I studied Geoarchaeology and love looking at archaeology through the lens of how we as humans impacted our environment and how our environment impacted us! so this popping up is a rare win for TH-cam's algorithm.

Milo you can't just come into a room and state that it's September, with that level of confidence. You had me checking my calendar just to make sure it's October.
When he was recording it was September, With Milo’s videos I’m certain they take a few weeks to edit.
@@Apollo_is_Gaming Not just a few weeks, he recorded this on a chilly September morning in the year 1931, this one's been in the works for close to a century.
I googled it, its true

Your calendar got debunked. Googledebunked.
I have degrees in both Mediaeval history and Anthropology, I always joke about the importance of being unemployable in more than one field, so I am totally amazed to your ability to turn these fields into these videos and giving lectures at universities. Your popularizing the knowledge that has formed so much of my life gives me hope for the future.
I feel you, I got Latin and Archaeology with a focus on Egyptology. I do have a job at uni but only because my Latin prof offered me a job three week in. Our degrees are pretty unemployable otherwise and I like you joke. xD
But also, really really cool fields you work in!
I'm with you - I studied archaeology and bio-anthropology ('stones and bones') and mediaeval studies - in Australia. Not a lot of call for the latter down our way, to be honest. But don't despair - after thirty years working in many, many entirely unrelated fields, I'm finally working as an archaeologist again! Back in my Happy Place and loving myself sick. 🤩

Cartography was an art before Google maps and satellites 😢
Too many people spend too much time on the internet or with a screen in their face to ever pay attention to the world the way people use to. Even just 50 years ago they knew more with less.

We have plenty of people that are alive right now that are researching/discovering new things and developing new technologies :) I know it's sometimes easy to become overwhelmed and feel hopeless when confronted with certain ways of thinking but it can be very refreshing and hopeful to look into the more inspiring people in this world and see what they're doing

Since humans were there, it does make me wonder if the stories of lost kingdoms/lands beneath the waves might have some connection to a shared oral tradition talking about these places that no longer exist.

interestingly we have a lot of sea shanties in the UK about the doggerbank because of the weather anomalies there due to how elevated the sea bed is
@@averylividmoose3599 Yes; but that doesn't equate to knowing the land existed. What's really interesting is that there is no 'history' we can tie into it. Just geography. And now archaeology and paleoclimatology etc as Milo pointed out.
Watching this channel evolve from, “weird archeologist guy debunks conspiracy theories.” To, “weird archeologist guy teaches archeology in better and more interesting ways than schools.” Was a trip I’d gladly go on again.
Same here
It's a bit of both, isn't it? Trying to teach something to people who "know the truth" is as ineffective as finding flaws in said truth without offering anything in its place.
I'm glad to see both sides of the approach had some coverage, not just by Milo but many more inspiring and educated TH-camrs.

I recently discovered you thanks to TH-cam's algorithm. I am 66 years old and although this may not really be relatable to you, my childhood hero was secretly Mr. Spock from Star Trek, because, at my young age of seven, I was fascinated by any and all kinds of science. I was certain that the future for mankind would look something like Star Trek with science minded individuals pursuing truth through science. While clearly that future has yet to come I still hold hope that Logic and the perseverance of facts will overcome our present, for lack of a better term, Idiocracy.
You are a super bright spot for this aging armchair scientist. I appreciate every moment of your videos that I have watched. May you and many more young minds like yourselves keep collaborating and keep fighting for science!! (Insert now a 10 minute standing ovation)

You're missing an important difference between tundra and steppe. The former does not thaw, and so plants cannot punch their roots through the permafrost so only algae, lichen, and fungi thrive. The latter allows for grasses and trees as they can set down roots.
Ohhhhh
I think the mammoth steppe would have also had permafrost.
@@Scigattnot all of it though
@@guyman1570 so both where right :)
You should know Tundra does have scrubby grasses, small bushes, flowers, even a few low lying trees (juniper types).
Permafrost is frozen at the water table, so anywhere from inches to meters down. But plant roots don't typically punch deep anyways; they spread outward because the nutrients and air are only located near the surface. The grade-school textbook pictures where the roots are a big ball, mirroring the canopy, are a lie. It's a pretty flat shallow disc of roots.
The reason trees don't grow tall in the tundra is the exposure to freezing high-speed winds which damage any tree that isn't grazed by hungry animals.
Just ten seconds before the Steppe Mammoth joke, I considered just how far this channel has come...
It's still wildly fun and informative, but the production quality has made nice leaps and is even still growing. I love it

It's kind of unfortunate that HP Lovecraft never found out about Doggerland during his lifetime.

You could hide all kinds of antedeluvian horrors there.

Fun fact from me, the local Norwegian guy. If you look at the Norwegian, swedish and Danish coasts (except for the part of the danish coast that was part of dogger land) you will see and underground cliff like thing under the water, about 0,5 too 5 miles off the coast (counts where your looking) this is the remains of this glacial maximum because water levels were lower and so there was more land, therefore the coasts where farther out, and so when the water came back in and the way the glaciers melted and pulled back created these underwater cliffs or hills. This is very cool too look at in my opinion (as a Norwegian person, this is the most interesting thing about Norway other than Vikings and social democracy) but there was believed for a short while due too this cliffs underwater that dogger land extended further north but we’ve later found that it doesn’t, I don’t know the full explanation for all the shtuff but it’s interesting

I must say I'm very impressed, this guy is a fantastic communicator. He's clearly an academic but doesn't talk like one. I live in the east of England and was aware of Doggerland, but this video has highlighted how little I knew about it. Good work. Subscribed.
"We bothering the cat tonight boys" subscribed immediately
Finally making a block of time to give this the attention it deserves.
(And share.)
Thank you for the video Milo, it was very interesting to hear more about this place from the depths of history.
38:32 It took me like 7 rewatches of this part in particular to realize the weird noise I was hearing was disembodied Milo saying "For all my European viewers"
Thank you for this
I was so confused
Thought it was an editing artifact
Thank you! I gave up after 3
I'm pretty sure it says Permian impact
thank you milo for talking about our doggerland i think its the unsung hero of dutch and englisch prehistory and ofcourse thanks for giving our kayleigh a shout out and doing a colab you sir are awesome many greets from the netherlands
I don't know if anyone else caught it, but the subtle nursery mobile music playing while Milo held his kitty 👌💕 great touch editor.
Love ALL the knowledge you share…thank you Milo! Sincerely, grandma!😊
It makes me so happy to have your channel for the optimism instead of the usual doom and gloom.
What usual doom and gloom? None of my TH-cam channels spread doom and gloom. You may consider curating your feed
@scootalong4254 not from my TH-cam feed, just general life, everyone acting like the world is on fire.
Thank you for covering this topic. I live in Northern Germany(Schleswig-Holstein), so Doggerland would be an hour drive away ;-)
I think fishing nets were kinda cashin´ up some arrowheads and burnt coal from campfires, so it was discovered...
I really enjoy your content! Keep on, Milo!
Ah, another Schleswig-Holsteiner hier! :D
Its always greate to meet my fellow germans in a comment section!❤💪🏻
Guten Abend!
I'm in North East Britland, on the other side of the sea. Right on the 'border' of Doggerland, as it were. Can see the sea from my window.
@@stickiedmin6508 I was on vacation in Chester-Le-Street in 2018 for two weeks and we paid a visit to Bamburgh Castle(at the sea). I loved the landscape/scenery. Rollercoaster Roads the more north we went ;-) Also visited Alnwick Castle, so cool. I saw the Angel of the North(soo fugly...sorry, but...LOL...innit?!?!!!
And I wanna come back to hike the whole of Hadrian's Wall, starting at Wallsend.
It's fascinating and interesting to me, that if there weren't some (more😉) drops of water between us, there could be just inhabited land, but hey, otherwise you wouldn't have your Brexit, right? Sorry again, I'm just joking. Nice evening to you ✌🏻

Pretty close to me. I live in Seaham, on the Durham coast. Apparently, we're quite famous now, for our sea-glass. A hundred or so years ago, there was a bottleworks (making glass bottles) right next to the town harbour. While it still existed, any stuff that got broken, or was defective in some way, would just get dumped in the sea. Tons, and tons of glass over the years, all different colours. As a result, little, rough glass pebbles have been washing up on to the local beaches ever since. I grew up here, but didn't realise that our beach was at all special because of it - I thought _all_ beaches were like that.
Oh, Lord Byron lived here for a brief while too. He got married here to Lady Milbanke, whose family were heavily involved in digging the first local coal mines, building the harbour and the town that grew around them. He absolutely despised the place, which is quite ironic given that the local council have been naming streets, buildings and shopping centres after him ever since. The Byrons' daughter, Ada Lovelace was also a famous mathematician who worked closely with Charles Babbage - inventor of one of the very first mechanical computers.
The Angel grows on you. I hated it at first, but got to be really fond of it eventually. I went to university in Newcastle, living there for about ten years. It felt like The Angel was standing guard over the city, arms out, holding back all the southerners and keeping them away. If I'd been away for any reason, The Angel was one of the first landmarks I'd see on my way back that let me know I was home. I'd imagine it was saying, "It's okay Stickie! Get behind me, quick! They won't get past me."
Never heard of Doggerland until this very video. Thanks Milo! And Kayleigh, who I also never heard of but will now watch.
Kayleigh and Milo are two of my favourite TH-cam creators
@@dsxa918 both Kayleigh and Milo make fact driven history video's that are realy good and also fun to watch highly reconment
@bloodyfluffybunny7411 I disagree about Kayleigh and avoid her videos since she uncritically hosted Lee Berger and let him talk about unscientifically confirmed theories about Homo Naledi when it hadn't been through peer review (which it later didn't pass peer review). More scientific channels were skeptical about the claims he made (ex: Gutsick Gibbon). Also, her thumbnails are cringe.
I am surprised that Kayleigh's title includes ft miniminuteman and includes him in the title shot, but this video does not refer to Kayleigh in the title or picture.
@@eshafto old news
yo the production value of this video is insane... all with milo's usual air of not giving a shit lmao. Its a perfect combo
My main takeaway from this video is that either A) Milo has *superhuman* restraint, or B) "Dogging" as a verb does not exist in American English
What does "dogging" mean elsewhere? I've only ever heard it used in the US to describe the action of a person or animal following you very closely or right at your heels.
It exists.
Nevermind, I unfortunately googled it. You Brits and your weird slang smh 🤦
I don't think Milo knows what it means but if he did he would appreciate it
I mean there is rawdogging
I started watching you as the "debunker guy" but as I watched more I realized that I absolutely love this more educational content. You are a great speaker and It's awesome to hear you talking about your passion. Keep it up!
Damn the production and editing value in these videos just keeps getting better and better
They really do!
As someone from the UK who's very interested in Doggerland, I was very excited to see this was gonna air
Doggerland is my favorite subject in archeology/anthropology, thank you for covering it!!!
Hey so I'm only halfway through; but he seems to have glossed over the Storegga landslide. How important is that in your archeology classes to do with this? That landslide must have smashed them.
Imagine what kinds of things have been dredged up but NOT found, and just ended up back in the ocean without being seen
I want to watch Philip trying (and failing) to debunk Milo

I am a new subscriber and listen to you all day everyday at work. Your long form content is the perfect thing for me to zone out to while doing my monotonous daily tasks. I thank you sir.
Great video, whats with double soundtrack at 38:31 though?
is that question rhetorical?
@@cadenc7162 do you know what the offscreen voice says?
Yeah, I was trying to figure out what that was, too...
i think it says “for my european viewers”?
it’s “for my european viewers” right after horribly mispronouncing ‘coup de grace’
I've been wrapping my christmas presents and writing my christmas cards whilst binging your longform content, thank you for the educational content, keeping me company but most importantly, giving your extremely cute cats screentime.
Milo doing a video on Doggerland, one of the Pleistocene cradles of Homo sapiens? A place that, now even submerged for millenia, likely holds a wealth of artifacts, sites, and knowledge? Though the rest has been worn away by the water? Perfection.
"Doggerland, one of the Pleistocene cradles of Homo sapiens? "
@@TheDanEdwards Sounds like you don't know what the Pleistocene, Doggerland, OR H. sapiens is, little boy.
You do know that the early humans there WERRE brown.
@@a_lethe_ion @TheDanEdwards Who the fuck cares about that shit? It is irrelevant. On a list of the interesting things about ancient human settlements, the amount of pigmentation is not even there.
No.
For people wondering why it was called doggerland, the areas of sea around Britain are all named (to allow people to reference them more specifically than just 'the sea', mostly used for things like weather forecasts nowadays) and the one next to Norfolk which Doggerland is under is called Dogger.
And that is exactly why I stayed up to watch .. still dont know why Dogger or Doggerland... but the area has fascinated me since childhood
It’s named after the Dogger bank, which is itself is named after a kind of ship
@@merrittanimation7721 ahh. Thanks
@@merrittanimation7721 ahh. Thanks
Why is the kind of ship called dogger? C'mon! We are barely scratching the surface!
literally had no clue who you were until this popped up on my home page. very happy to have found another good longform form of entertainment
Welcome, the comments coming from all angles will be as enlightening as his videos.
The phrase "Oh, she's a circle!" Lives rent-free in my head and I dont hate it.
Fun fact: we actually know of a recorded battle within that region, and it's called The Battle of Jutland, a naval battle fought between Germany and Britain during the first World War.
And a few years before that was the "Dogger Banks Incident", in which some *very* confused Russian battleships fired on English fishing boats, believing them to be the Japanese navy.
The Jutland peninsula is in Denmark. It was named after that Area.
It involved the largest naval battle of the war between the British Royal Navy’s Grand Fleet and the Imperial German Navy’s High Seas Fleet right.?
@@damienvalentine5043 we still have a smokestack with a bullet hole in the museum
@@MFLimited That's right! The northwest corner of Doggerland, at the time of its greatest extent.
22:53 I wish my cat would sing about Gilgamesh in ancient Sumerian.....
Have you seen Peter Pringle's stuff? I adore it.
Glad im not the only one who recognized it
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@ValeriePallaoro Yes, guy has a great voice!
Milo, I found you by way of Kaleigh . I love both geology and archeology (et al). And I thank you for making it so fun and interesting.
35:56 “giant tsunami” immediately following an ad break is fire 🌊🌊🌊🌊
Can't wait for this, i find sunken landmasses that humans used for generations fascinating.
Like how parts of Alexandria are underwater, or in the case of Port Royal completely underwater intact
do you mean Port Royal, by any chance?
@@Geheimnis-c2e looked it up I believe it is port Royal! The earthquake caused the city to go underwater & apparently of you dive there a majority of the city is literally just sitting there chilling.
Updated my og comment to reflect it's oort royal
Love the sources now being captioned on screen during the videos! Taking it up yet another notch!! 😍😍
yeah that is a very nice touch, saves time if someone wants to learn more about a specific point/topic they can now go right to the work it came from
