Also, a fun fact about Byblos (08:30). It may be obvious that this sounds like "book" (Bible, biblioteka, etc.). The reason was this port was originally a Greek/Phoenician waypoint and warehouse center for papyrus (paper) en route to the Greek world. It wasn't named after "books," rather, it was the other way around. In the same way we refer to porcelain ware as "China," greeks referred to scroll-books as Byblos. Along with the other towns in that little circle it was one of the few cities to survive the Bronze Age Catastrophes...
Garum, if im not mistaken was the souce of antique, like we use idk ketchup or mustard nowadays. Its made out of fermented anchovis and tbh sounds on the first gleance disgusting because it sounds for me like the old version of this rancid caned fish from sweden, surströming or whatever the name was, but idk, might be worth a try if it really was the big deal back then.
this book looks great. I have History of the World: Map by Map and the more detailed Penguin Historical Atlas of Ancient Civilizations.... it's interesting to me what things the editor/writer of these kinds of books chooses to focus upon. For example, in the former title much is said of the Atlantic Slave trade (as it should be) but absolutely nothing of the the Pacific slave trade, both of which depleted Africa of about 15,000,000 souls. Anyway... the more detailed and obscure the historical map the better. I'd love if you showcased more material like this, along with your strange borders stuff it's some of my favorite video asmr you've done. :)
18:05 that 6 milion isn't the population of Rome, but the population of Italia. Before 212 citizens of modern day Italy were considered Roman citizens.
Not trying to nitpick or anything but just letting you know that when it says B.C.E. It technically means (before common era) in order to apply to all cultures and religions universally rather than just Christians as implied in the term (before christ). Great vid tho!👍🏼
@@Todeskreuz_ where do you think the E came from? This is 5th grade level stuff here guys.💀It’s an easy Google search B.C.E. Stand for (Before Common Era) idk why you’re acting so insecure from me simply explaining a term💀 Before, the terms were BC (before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini). Due to the fact that the world isn’t solely populated by Christians and textbook companies actually want to make money they and pretty much every notable historian on earth now uses the terms BCE and CE (common era). Because yep, you guessed it, non-Christian cultures exist.😱😱
First AMRtist, who can make me sleep in the start/middle of the video

Ah, that makes much more sense 😸
Garum is a fermented fish sauce
Garum was a fermented fish sauce. Adopted from Phoenician’s. Used in all food dishes. Like modern day ketchup. And akin to posca. Look up posca
Maybe you can do historical flags at some point?
Please can you do some more content on Japan! I love the country and I’m in need of you to cover it 😂😊

Have you ever considered doing a speedrun through one of these books while speaking unintelligibly and/or uncontrollably?
Hmmm no, but it's an interesting thought
