Byrdflough Not everyone. I personally don't like the ancient times. My favorite times are the start of the middle ages to the renaissance. And I have to say, that I really don't like the romans. (Plz forgive me Metatron Dx)
do Greeks and Romans follow the rites and values from Confucianism and other Strict Chinese Ethics and Societal Behavioral-Ethical Laws? After the Greeks and Romans are connected to China in 210 BC via the Silk Road?
Goatmask Daily Allow me to ask you friend, what are the best, and the worst, virtues of the Sumerians? Where did they excel and where did they lack behind?
What? I've seen some EXTENSIVE videos on all the Celtic tribes on TH-cam, even the ones that migrated into Anatolia, you need to look a little harder... actually, I just realized this was SIX freaking years ago, might not have been back then
Oh yes! I would love a series about this, ancient civilisations. It is not like talking about the same periods is getting boring, since there is so much still to discuss anyway, but to be able to hear about stuff people usually don't tackle - the ancient times - is always welcome, and awesome - specially because I have some kind of personal deeply interest on the real ancient times.
I always find it fascinating to think and learn of the daily life in ancient times, the food, the jobs, religion, medicine... comparing all of that to our world gives us a much richer perspective of history. Great video, cheers!
The origin of Rome is one of the things I'm fascinated by, the movement from prehistoric tribal settlements to early states is such a blank space in so many ways.
When talking about the foundation of Rome, people often talk about the legend of Romulus et Remus. Whats your take on this Metatron? Or more specifically, what would be the in-depth story about that?
The name “Roma” means “place on the flowing river.” It comes from the Etruscan name of the Tiber, which was “Rumon.” But they got that word from Old Italic, and it was related to Greek “Rheo,” which meant “flow.”
Yeah, I'd love to see more about ancient cultures but I'd also love to see a series that takes us through the stages of a particular empire. You could do Origins-Imperial-Republican for Rome. I know you already have videos touching on the two later periods of Rome, but I'd like to see something more comparative overall. Keep up the good work!
I thought the whole point of this video was to learn about the origins of Rome. We immediately hit the Colosseum lol. Focus should of been about the Etruscan', Romulus etc and even the myth that Romans were the descendants of the Trojans that migrated to Italy.
I know the Greeks had a bit of influence during early Rome but that was little as compared to the major influence of the advanced Etruscans, it's a fact the Etruscan kings ruled Rome for a long time and build major structures, drains and aqueducts before there was a major confrontation between the two powers th-cam.com/video/VZBH7qKgPTw/w-d-xo.html
YES! OH MY GOD YES! PLEASE DO MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS! You're a trustworthy source, you make it interesting and most likely if I was to try and do research on my own I wouldn't be able to find trustworthy source. So please please please PLEASE continue doing more videos like this!
You're great. I enjoyed this. Good enthusiasm and what's great is that you're passionate about it which doesn't make it boring like some others make it
+Metatron , I absolutely 100% think that you should continue along with this series! Wow, great video, super fascinating, Thank you for taking the time to make this.
Please make more vids like this! The origin of Rome is a subject I've been wanting to see discussed for so long, but no one really goes talks about it.
Hey Raff, could you do a video on the difference between Carthage (the city) before the 1st punic war and Carthage after the renovation of Hannibal as Suffet between the 2nd and 3rd punic war. I know, a very specific request, but I think it would be an interesting topic not many people know about. Have a nice day. : )
+Fathel Guweda That it is. It's at least understandable here in the US with the things history classes focus on vs the ones they ignore, but still sad nonetheless.
Sofia Lodigiani Actually, Hannibal took power away from the nobility, restored the financial situation back to the level of former times and with the new riches he spereated the harbor into military and trade harbor. Under his period of gouverning Carthage flourished.
maxiwmw I didn't mean to be historically accurate, I wasn't referring to the period you spoke about in the comment, it was just a joke about the end of Carthage, after the third Punic war
Hi there Raf, Please, please, please do a series on early civilisations. I think a rather large number of people would appreciate that quite a lot. Greetings from a Noble One
I love stuff about the earliest periods of civilizations. There was a museum in Paris that displayed information about the earliest beginnings of that city. Thank you for this content. (6 years later ;)
What is even more fascinating about the creation of Rome as a city, is that it is linked to the voyage that Aneas took after the sack of Troy, himself and his people fled by boat to the western Mediterranean to look for a new home, and allegedly landed in Carthage, where he broke the heart of a princess there, legend is that she cursed him and all his decedents. Aneas fled Carthage and landed in Latium where his people integrated with the Latin people. Indeed, Aneas was was a local king and his great, great, great, great ,great, great, great grandson, Romulus, was born and founded the city of Rome.
Yep. I would love for this to be a series. I've always wondered how civilizations went from hunter gatherers to kingdoms and how some of the ancient nations started. Nobody talks about that stuff though, I guess because information about cultures before writing is pretty incomplete. Another interesting video topic might be about the origins of written languages.
you are a legend, I love these videos, calming and informative , I would like to request (if its not too much of a hassle) a video about Mesopotamian or Egyptian civilizations
Yes, please do start a series on the beginnings of ancient civilisations. It's channels like yours which first sparked my interest in such things, and I'd like to see more content like it. Keep up the awesome videos.
I would also know about ancient civilizations. Perticular about Germany in the area of Berlin and Pakistan in the area of Lahore/ Rural areas. And as always great content. Although I subscribed today, I always checked for new content, when I had some freetime.
Another excellent video my friend. I for one would be very interested in a series of related videos on the rise and early days of various kingdoms/nations.
hey metatron there's this critically acclaimed podcast called the history of rome. it is very in depth and starts from the very beginning to the fall of rome. since you are a history buff i think you might want to check it out. it has won many awards and stuff.
I am vary much interested in see more of your work. I share many of your interests and would like to see more videos on history, the martial arts and languages. I am a sculptor, historian and martial artist. Thank you for sharing your experience, knowledge and research.
Yes please good sir! The history of the early civs are what I've read the least about and that also requires a lot of research to study! I'd love to see more about this from you.
a serie of videos about ancient civilizations sounds amazing,I would definitely watch it,even better if you include prehispanic civilizations,keep up the good work
These types of videos are very educational as well as entertaining, I think you should make similar videos about ancient Greece example(Ancient greek houses and food ) :)
I would like to add to the topic at around 11 minutes, regarding price of rent on upper versus lower floors. Having lived in Vietnam, I noticed that upper floors were very hot during the summer, while lower floors were cool. This could be another reason why in a day without air conditioning, upper floors were cheaper in Rome. Thanks for your very informative videos, I just subscribed.
A series about ancient civiliazations would be interesting indeed. I am particularly interested in the Roman monarchy, since so little is known about it.
Well, FREAKING FINALLY - the BEST and most interesting parts about the History of Rome aren't the ones about the "Empire" or even the "Republic", but ABOUT ITS VERY ORIGINS.
I'd like to see that series and I suggest that if you are serious about making it you could do the thing similar to your Roman Armor video where you have an overview video of the timeline and then have links to the videos for specific points in history that you would like to talk about. This will allow you to make the subsequent videos shorter because the introduction has already been and it also allows you to make the subsequent videos in isolation from each other, meaning since you already have a video explaining the timeline you don't have to keep saying on each video "please go back and watch the other videos so you could understand what's going" and instead only have to sometimes tell people to go back and watch the other videos. Just a suggestion and thanks for the videos.
I would really like to hear this lecture in french if you can manage it. I've started sharing your channel with my brothers and friend directly, very interesting stuff.
YES! This is interesting :O I would also love it if you could go into some more depth about the life of commoners in Japan. Generally people only talk about the nobles and the warriors, which is fascinating of course, but it is VERY important to understand the commoners if you want to accurately picture a civilization.
I think it's clear that we all love to hear more about ancient and early civilisations. I'm personally very interested to hear more about the Region that would become the centre of the City-States of Babylonia like Uruk and such.
We'd all love to hear more early civilization stuff.
Absolutely Yes!
Byrdflough Not everyone. I personally don't like the ancient times. My favorite times are the start of the middle ages to the renaissance. And I have to say, that I really don't like the romans. (Plz forgive me Metatron Dx)

sabin97 What's your problem?
read the last line of my previous post
I am very interested about the ancient civilizations serie 👍 Grande Metatron
Same
Yeah I was also hoping for more on the Rome villages and founding myth
Yes please do more!
do Greeks and Romans follow the rites and values from Confucianism and other Strict Chinese Ethics and Societal Behavioral-Ethical Laws? After the Greeks and Romans are connected to China in 210 BC via the Silk Road?
I'm also looking forward to a ancient civilization series.
dude yes! the more ancient the better. I've studied sumeria and the indus valley civilizations to death because I absolutely love stuff like that
Goatmask Daily Allow me to ask you friend, what are the best, and the worst, virtues of the Sumerians? Where did they excel and where did they lack behind?
Sumer? me too. Go, Gilgamesh, go!!!!
Ever find an answer?@@hydernoori146
Hope you're still passionately studying history :)
Meta, could you do a video on the etruscans, their culture, language,.. and their influence on Rome?
Totally interested... this kind of content is the main reason why I am a great fan of your channel...omnia dicta fortiora si dicta Latina!!
Would you consider doing a timeline of the Ancient Celtic Tribes? There isn't much media out there that accurately describes them.
What? I've seen some EXTENSIVE videos on all the Celtic tribes on TH-cam, even the ones that migrated into Anatolia, you need to look a little harder... actually, I just realized this was SIX freaking years ago, might not have been back then

Last time I was this early Rome was still a republic
Which means you are about a couple thousand years old.
Which I highly doubt.
that's why I'm so impressed with myself
last time i was this early an innocent banker bigshot went to jail for double homicide on his wife and lover........
Last time i was this late the pope was driving a spaceship
actually a Hungarian/Norwegian mix but yeah 😌

It did start as a city of criminals and rapists. Then they snatched the neighboring village's women and made them their wives.
Last time I was this early we were still doing the Reconquista
The name “Roma” means “place on the flowing river.” It comes from the Etruscan name of the Tiber, which was “Rumon.” But they got that word from Old Italic, and it was related to Greek “Rheo,” which meant “flow.”
It would be awesome if you talked about the great civilizations of the bronze age like the assyrians and the hitties and so on ^^
Yes, someone else mentioned Hittites.
sadly they don't get much love :(
Pwatypus It is such a tragedy as they were the first people to use iron and broke up the original Babylonian Empire. :/
A series on early civilizations sounds fantastic!
A series on ancient civilizations would be indeed very interesting!

Et tu, Brutus? Me to, I want to know if the Romans were just a bunch of washed up Greeks or Trojans or both?
The trojan and romulus thing was a complete myth. In fact, the trojan migration to rome was made up by seneca
I know the Greeks had a bit of influence during early Rome but that was little as compared to the major influence of the advanced Etruscans, it's a fact the Etruscan kings ruled Rome for a long time and build major structures, drains and aqueducts before there was a major confrontation between the two powers
th-cam.com/video/VZBH7qKgPTw/w-d-xo.html
I thought the Video was Cool but YES I agree, lets do the Origins of Rome, No Romulus and Remus, geesh
The video was almost over when he talked about the colloseum. And he talked about nothing but history and facts not myths and legends
I love this plan of discussing ancient civilizations.
YES! OH MY GOD YES! PLEASE DO MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS!
You're a trustworthy source, you make it interesting and most likely if I was to try and do research on my own I wouldn't be able to find trustworthy source.
So please please please PLEASE continue doing more videos like this!
Stopped just when it was getting good. Thanks again, great video. Thumbs up for pre-regnum era vids!
Hearing more about ancient civs would be great.
You're great. I enjoyed this. Good enthusiasm and what's great is that you're passionate about it which doesn't make it boring like some others make it
Yes, Meratron. I would like to hear your presentation about ancient civilizations in Europe. Thank you for your videos.

Honorable Megatron ; thank you for always respecting us as " noble ones " . A compliment to live up to.
Excellent presentation. You should include street maps of ancient Rome and other cities.

Sorry, but i needed to😂

Who need notifications when you just sit on the channel waiting?
I would love more videos about early civilizations like this
thank you, you've reignited my interest in European history I have also binged watched all of your videos in the past 2 days :)
thumbs up, we want more videos like this one, very very very interesting :D
Very interesting. I am totally up for more early civilization content.

I am VERY interested in more pre-history of Rome videos, and videos about earlier civilizations/cultures!
Love these history videos. Ancient Rome & Greece are fascinating!
A video on the Roman architecture would be nice.
Aint it just greek architecture
Another excellent video my friend. I for one would be very interested in a series of related videos on the rise and early days of various kingdoms/nations.
Very interesting video! I would like to watch a series about Rome (or other cities or civilizations) origins!

Very informative and highly interesting. I like your style of teaching.
Very interesting. Can't wait to hear more about early Rome.
thanks for this video. I love history. THANKS FOR THE TID BITS.
I would roll with that, you have some interesting insights on this subject. no one really talks about the early stuff.
Dude this intro is dope x Love the track
That was exactly the video I was looking for! Thank you!
a series more in-depth about the early civilizations would be interesting and pretty cool.
Grazie tanto e continua per favore.
Also thanks for the lessons on pronunciation with Italian, I need all the assistance that I can gather.
I'd enjoy hearing more about this stage of Roman development.
