    In this video, you'll see everything you need to know about how Greeks lived during the golden age.
    We start with a brief overview of how Greece came to be and some of the misconceptions about its formation. Following this, we get to know the people of ancient Greece, through their love of leisure. This favorite pastime is heavily reliant upon a busy open air market called the Agora.
    Moving away from the agora briefly, we explore the theatre experience. The theatre was a popular hobby of thousands of Greeks. Moving back to the Agora, we bump into Socrates.
    Socrates is an excellent vessel for knowledge in more than one way. Through his unusual mannerisms and fashion sense, we learn how Greeks dressed at the time. His wife emerges and models some women's clothing. This bores Socrates, so he suggests an adventure to the Olympic Games.
    Getting to the Olympics is easier said than done. We'll really need to figure out how to get there as Olympia is on the other side of Greece, a 6 day walk. This leads to the few transportation options we have: horses, donkeys and boats.
    Whilst walking is the easiest option, it's slow and incredibly dangerous for a number of reasons. Greek pirates are a huge one.
    Spending the day on the farm is far more relaxing. Most Greeks were attached to farms in one way or another, so this is an important segment. It leads nicely into foods and beverages that were consumed in Ancient Greece.
    Next up is houses. How they were designed: interior and exterior. Another important thing to note is how the household was structured. It encompassed everyone, including domestic helpers (sIaves).
    There were a few groups that had a hard time in Greece. Women were one of them. It wasn't just social expectations that made life challenging for Greek women. Death was also something they had to deal with far too frequently.
    Premature death was prominent in all of the ancient world. Religious beliefs (mythology) helped guide Greeks through the process. There will be separate videos on mythology as it's far to broad of a subject to address in this video. Enjoy the documentary!

      I was in a museum in Greece this summer and in the exhibit about everyday life I asked the attendant that worked there if the Greeks had slaves, she made a horrified gasp and looked at me like I was crazy and said that was impossible. I then Googled it and found there were thousands of slaves in Athens and showed her that. She denied it and said that couldn't be true and I asked her and she was oblivious to the fact that everywhere in the world almost had slaves that why would Greece be different? Even if you're very proud of your ancestors it's still okay to acknowledge they made terrible mistakes.

    Your videos are so compelling- especially the scenic overviews. One is drawn into the cityscape, sunlight limns the outlines of a building. In one the kinetic energy builds as the wind sweeps across a field, blowing dust behind a group of farmers. I can almost smell the dirt as I scan the video, watching intently for movement I might have missed. In the Greek videos there appears to include an homage to the artists Alma-Tadema? (I love the strewn roses around people's feet in a couple scenes.) Add to that pretty good historical accuracy, (never something we can take for granted.) Great videos. 👍

    An example that is wrong in this video is the AGORA IS NOT THE MARKET , ANCIENT GREEK AGORA WAS THE PLACE WHERE PEOPLE HAD CONVERSATION, AGOREVO MEANS I TALK TO A GROUP OF PEOPLE. ALL SCIENCES HAVE GREEK NAMES BECAUSE THEY ALL STARTED IN GREECE. THE THEATER THAT IS AN ELEMENT OF CULTURE IS GREEK etc. We must say specifically what culture means and only then will we find the roots.

    What is in this documentary described, it's not the life of ancient Greeks but the life of rich people in ancient Greece (1% - 10% of the population.)
    People back then had really to work, that's why, although Perikles established the Democracy in Athens, people who were drawn ( yeap they were not elected, they were drawn) to take part at the Ecclesia of Demos didn't really participate in this citizens assembly, because they were poor and had to work. So Pericles came up with a solution, he said let's pay the participants (Members of Parliament back then) their daywork so that they don't have to go to work but they could take active part in the Ecclesia of Demos.

      Actually he talks in the video about a lot a types of works in Athens, like fishing, pottery, he also talks about merchants, sailors, farmers, etc, the only part where he talks about the rich people is when he says "lazy greeks", i know that you can be offended by that, but he obviously was just making a reference to this lifestyle from richer people, but he tells a lot about the workers and the slaves or "domestic helpers"(obviously this term is wrong but you need to understand the youtube algorithm censure). I understand that you greeks can be a little unsatisfied with this video, but you need to understand that it is made not for historians or you greeks, who know's your own history better than anyone, but to someone who likes history and want's to know more about the ancient Greece. So he kind of give just a general view of how life was in one of the most popular city states at the time. So of course it don't have enough details, or some little inconsistencies but it does teach a lot and they are correct in the far majority of the facts, maybe not all of them, but you know that they are being more precise them american series and movies and we need to give them some credit for that.

About culture, arts and science of old Greeks has learned everybody in school. He has showed reality. Greeks were in average the same as other people. I think You didn`t see the main point of video. All greeks achievement were result of free time to find new angles of view, because of use "home helper". Most important for human race aren`t stone monuments big or but small invents, that has improved our society. Everybody admire old Romans and their civilisation. But their civilisation was created on a cheating, stealing and blood. For me were more civilisated Gauls and Etrusci (also Veneti, by the way). Both have invented a lot of different solutions, Romans have just stolen them. Do you prefer sword and steal, or invention?

    I absolutely LOVE that you use animation for your videos. I enjoy watching documentaries very much, this is a nice change of pace and I have watched every one you have available. I'd like to see an animated one on the lives of particular pharaohs ( any of the interesting ones will do lol) and either do them separately or all in one, I'd prefer the latter. I enjoy pretty much anything to do w ancient Egypt, however I think if you created one of these wonderful documentaries of the Valley of the Kings, it's layout and how a tomb was constructed ( all the detail and meticulous work that went into building one for a pharaoh) that it would quite possibly be your best documentary created yet!! Please consider this idea, I know I can not be the only one that be fascinated by this. All of the hard work, that goes into these little videos, is greatly appreciated by ppl like me...

Unlike Sparta where they were called "eilwtes": hard laboring slaves. Xanthippe, Socrates wife, threw a... skillet against him because he gave back all the food a wealthy citizen sent him as a payment for his teaching in the Agora. Socrates afterwards went to that man and begged for the food he had previously refused to get, because he was teaching for free! He could not sell wisdom!

    "Domestic helper" is a standard profession for Overseas Filipino Workers, especially the female ones. In some countries, under certain circumstances, they are "domestic helpers" in the same sense as described here. I won't call out any places, but if you go, say, southeast from Greece to any of the patriarchal societies that treat women the same way as described in this video and you get the picture. On the other side, in tribal societies here in the Philippines women were important, especially those who were spiritual leaders (known here in Mindanao as "baylan"), every bit as important as the tribal chief ("datu"). One thing that I did note is that TH-cam doesn't censor classical art in this video, whereas so often breasts and genitals are blurred out. I completely disagree with any of the forms of censorship of certain terms, nudity and so on, while gratuitous violence is not censored.

    the ''domestic helpers'' existed in rich peoples' houses. The biggest difference compared to slavery in other countries, was that they could apply to take back their freedom, either by the will of their ''owner'' or when doing something outstanding.

      In the American Slave colonies/states, freeing special slaves (manumission) was legal and not uncommon. Furthermore, it was illegal to free them when they were too old, so no kicking them out once they were uneconomical, to fend or starve on their own. There are reasons that the only case in history that slavery grew its numbers by breeding, not capturing new ones, was in the American South.
