  • Ancient history has a way of slipping through the cracks, and in today's amazing video we uncover an entire ancient civilization that has completely vanished from ever existing. Check out our new video where we investigate some ancient Egyptian texts that refer to a land called "Punt" that traded with the Egyptians. But what happened to the land of Punt, and where was it exactly located? You will have to watch today's amazing video to find out!

      @Koolkid Ehm... Somalis don't look like ancient Egyptians, just no. Ancient Egyptians were a tad darker than Syrians and Palestinians, perhaps because of their climate, but they were nowhere near as dark as modern Somalis are. For example, Kushites/Old Nubians, people from modern day South Sudan and Northern Ethiopia, are depicted as dark brown skinned, very different to their Egyptian cointerparts

      Which is why the Egyptians stated that the people from the Land of Punt were distinctively unique looking and different looking to them ... You did actually watch the video right? It says it in the video that you’re commenting on..you could’ve done some research as well. And if you’re confused as to why the Egyptians would then suggest that it’s their ancestral homeland, it’s because it is! East Africa is the location of the first human beings in the entire world, East Africans are the ancestral homeland of All people, not just the Egyptians. Your post makes 0 sense and is lazy, do research or at least watch the video.

    The Land of Punt is most likely in present day Somalia/Ethiopia , but more likely Somalia due to the length of travel of their journeys. When you look at the physical descriptions given by the Egyptians and the items that the Egyptians required from the land of Punt such as Myrhh, and the fact that Myrhh only originated in Arabia or Yemen/Somalia, with the Somali Myrhh being the most unique and desired one, all clues point to one direction. It can’t be an Arab country due to the physical descriptions given.

      The Middle East was lush and green.. and what was/is Somalia? Somalia was and is more lush and green than all of the Middle East, the South of Somalia is nothing but green...the spices and exotic animals described by Ancient Egyptians were not found in the Middle East. You state that there’s no concrete evidence that it’s located in Somalia, which I agree with, if you read my post i literally say ‘ most likely ‘, but what I then find odd and strange , is you have made an argument for it to be in the Middle East ( even though you yourself admit there is no hypothesis proving any location) , and you’ve based your argument on the Middle East being lush and green at that time, as if Somalia was and still isn’t green and lush, even more than the Middle East... can you see how many inaccuracies are in your post? I think you’re confused

    • @Iamcruddy1
      @Iamcruddy1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Skunk Ape ,
      Then why would you randomly mention the geography of the Middle East? And describe features of the Middle East that isn’t unique to the Middle East as a way of providing a theory that the location could possible also be in the Middle East ? Doesn’t make sense. I shared your views, but I’m no longer of that opinion, I’ve done more research and the documents and archives held by the Ancient Egyptians is too thorough to discredit. It’s more likely that the supposed locations simply haven’t been actively excavated. The Middle East region has a huge history, but it has many sites which aren’t being excavated for one reason or another, likewise with Somalia, Somalia only recently started excavations and have found many unique artifacts of early advanced civilisations. I think the answer is out there, we simply haven’t searched yet.

      Skunk Ape ,
      Are you not used to being questioned? You’ve just said in your latest post ‘Somalia’s MODERN features don’t make it a unique fit ‘... but when you mentioned the Middle East, your reasons were NOT due to their MODERN landscape and features, it was due to their ANCIENT landscape and features, to quote you directly ‘ the Middle East was lush and green during that time, and not a desert’ . At least we agree on one thing, I also think you’re confused, that shrugging shoulder emoji encapsulates you perfectly.

    @7:11, he says "at least part of the journey involved sailing through the Red Sea, which would point to the location being somewhere on the Arabian peninsula". That certainly does not point to Punt being in the Arabian peninsula, since Eritrea, Sudan, and Somalia are also along the Red Sea. Also many of the things they brought back from Punt were only found in Africa, like the Secretary bird, which is found only in Sudan, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Djibouti, and Somalia, but not found in Arabia. Also ebony, giraffes, gold and ivory were African in origin. A genetic study was done on the mummy's of baboons brought back from Punt which showed they were native to Eritrea, Ethiopia and eastern Somalia.

If you have a link or resources that help support your claim, I will read it for sure. But everything ive read on it, and knowing how most people in that field work, they temd not to say that it is *for sure.* They say they believe it is, or that evidence strongly supports the theory it is. But there is no absolute, 100%, undeniable proof that it is certain.
      Adding that it is "literally" doesn't make me think it is any mlre, either. I mean I wasn't ever thinking that it was *figuratively* Somalia. So if it was Somalia, it would go without saying that it was in the literal sense.

    Sounds like in Somalia or Ethiopia to me, based on the description of the people, land, and resources. Yemen makes no sense. Looks really obvious from my non expert, sparse knowledge, but this bothers Egyptologists so much for what reason? I think a lot Egyptologists have held back the study of ancient civilizations because they are too busy finding things that fit what ever narrative they want to create. I've hear some really frustrating things about the industry even from people that try to get into it.

    Land of Punt is no doubt in modern Somalia but also included Somali relatives of Rendille, Borana, afar, and Gabbra and others. Punt, Punite, Pwenet, and Pone all of them are same and the meaning is a Horn or the one who lives the horn. In Somalia there is a city called Opone that has relationship with the word Punt or Punite and it means Horn or the origin because the word Father came from the same root. The letter "O" in the word Opone is the same "O" in Osiris that means the orgin in Somali language. Egyptian Hieroglyph used in Somalia before Egypt, and it supposed to be a Punite Hieroglyph that Bedouin Somalis still use to mark their animals. Somali language is also shares 60% with ancient Egypt language. They share religion, DNA, cultural clothes, way of dancing, crafts and tools and same Gods such as Ra, Nedir, Horus and Osiris. which country in the world that can share with them all of these? which country that still uses Hieroglyph other than Somalia?

Archaeology in Somalia at its peak in the 1970s was still in its infancy, and a lot has already been recovered. Its still the largest producer of frankincense and myrrh today just like in ancient times when it was worth a 1000 times more, even the Roman Empire deposited their incense imports from Mosylon directly into the Treasury vault because of its high value like gold or bitcoin today.

    Punt did not disappear. It is just that scholarship was conflicted to admit inner Africa as the aboriginal home of the ancient Egyptians. To make it mysterious is to pervert history. Often commercial ties are emphasized. The fact is Egypt was first settled by people of Punt (Abyssinians). Science has known conclusively for 10 years now that Punt encompassed Northern Ethiopia and Eritrea, including the head waters of the Blue Nile and the Tekeze rivers. Look for articles in Google titled the "Location of Punt".

    Punt or Pontos means "Sea" in Greek. The land of the Sea (Punt) is the land around the Nyanza Sea which is the source of the Nile aka "Ngu-Kana". East Africa. Khemenu didn't attack Puntos because they were one in the same. All kings went to Punt to be Annoited and Enthroned. The trick is in the Greek translation of the PIE root word. This is also the same mystics around the name Pota (Ptah) which translates to River (Nda). Hu-Ka-Ptah is Wu-Ka-Nda (Uganda) source of Nile. The great King Alexander (El-Kheç-nda) is also Ptah. Cyrus is Ka-yuru also Ptah or Re or Heru. Look into Uganda Mythology
    It's all clear once you examine the indigenous languages of Nilotic Africa

      @@pearlw540 Hey, All the Nilotic tribes are useful, the myth says the body of Ausar was cut into 13/14 pieces and spread over the Nile (Khemetic) tribes. But personal l'd recommend start with Khalenjin, Kikuyu, Buganda, Bunyoro and Bukusu mythology, (use etymology everywhere for the essense of words) then end with Luo mythology use each tradition as a stepping stone knowing that they share origin and reference to any of them for greater understand of the next. It'll be helpful if you are also knowledgeable in Greek, Hebrew, Hindi and Buddhist wisdom traditions. Be open to learning the languages too. The deities unveil the highest Values of people, it's there that you can evoke the Spirituality flowing through the Nile Valley during that Bronze Age Pyramid Civilization.

      Thank you....
      Made this comment earlier even before stumbling upon yours... ❤
      Here me out y'all... the land of punt from old maps shows a huge area... spreading across East Africa. The Egyptians had murals showing the land with Palms and they traded so much in Ivory .... ivory = Elephants... the only countries with Elephants next to Somali is Kenya... they have the coast .... there's more.
      The Garden of Eden... Real location also.... where animals were living with human beings... safaris and wild animals are found in very few African countries. Not all..
      The valleys of Ur... sumeria... ancient mesapotamia ...
      There's alot we need to unlearn and relearn.
      Also the man in the bible who fought with a lion... where are lions naturally ? Noah... pairing animals into the Ark before the flood... most of the animals you see...in the photos getting into the ark ... are clear evidence of where the Real biblical and lost worlds true locations are. ...
      Research really helps... but there's lots of misinformation out there...
      The Real name of Africa being Alkebulan... before The man called Africus renamed it after himself ... having won the battle in Havilah...
      So much to unpack
