Good stuff! I love how Greek culture spread like a virus. Magna Graecia gave it to the Etruscans, who gave it to the Romans, and eventually the West at large.
Underrated history. Found out I’m 57% Italian. Mostly originating in Sicily. So could I possibly have had ancient Greek ancestors? Only about 1% Greek.
My Mother is of Greek and Southern Italian Descent, in Calabria. This is so cool to learn about where some of my ancestors came from!

Awesome video and really helpful! it's been suprisingly difficult to find good documentaries about the history of ancient Greeks in Italy.
Thank you and I’m very pleased to hear it!
Every video is an awesome look into the culture, all of which inspires me to continue the effort to learn ancient greek.
πολλὴν χάριν σοι ἔχω!
Your video is insanely well made. Thanks for convering a part of our history!
Can’t wait to see more on this topic. Hellenic colonisation is such an interesting chapter of ancient history.
Next stop: Sicily!

What’s the video game used in some of the animation?
Mostly Assassin's Creed Odyssey - a fantastic source of material, even if many didn't like the game (though I did!)
❤🎉
Hey what’s the Rites of Demeter 👀
Jk it’s why I’m here. Tracking the rites development into Christianity.
My YDNA line is Carthaginian King Hasdrubal the first then later to Roman Italian Nobility. My mother's Paternal line is Greek Nobility.
