15 AMAZING Medieval Ships

Рет қаралды 98,048

Күн бұрын

The medieval period marked a massive increase in shipbuilding. After a period of instability in Europe, ships began to be built so that European wars and trade routes could be expanded. At the same time, other areas of the globe were also improving their ships in order to interact with the world around them. This ultimately led to the Age of Exploration and both mass globalization and colonization. So today, get ready to set sail and learn about how this change became at all possible as we go through the Top 15 Amazing Medieval Ships!

I noted all your ‘Hulks’ were late eighteenth early nineteenth century ships of the line

I love how they say "the calm waters of the Mediterranean", then look up storms on the Mediterranean, it's not so calm,lol.

@BlackHearthguard Күн бұрын

And then you compare them to the force 10 and larger storms in the northern Atlantic...

0:55 These are not medieval hulks, but retired 18th century warships given the same nickname. 1:22 Is a Humber Keel, not a Balingor 1:42 The oldest surviving ship on the planet is the Khufu ship dating from 2500bc, but there are also dugout canoes dated to 7000bc. 8:43 It's spelt 'carrack' not 'carrick'. Also needs to come after the section on caravels. 12:30 It's spelt 'Kon Tiki' not 'conteki' 22:20 It's spelt 'knarr' not 'canar'. As 'Medieval' refers to a period of *European* history from about 500 to 1500, the dhow, north american canoe, Kon Tiki and junk are all outside this definition. Especially the Kon Tiki, which is a speculative ship from *1947* and does not actually represent a historical vessel.

@@earlworley-bd6zyI would agree with you if it was about normal words, punctuation or grammar. But when it is actual names, then it is important to get them right for people who want to find out more. Try googling 'conteki': all you will get are articles on horse racing; google 'canar' and you will find out about birds and Spanish villages.

I got to live and sail on a caravel. It was a replica of La Niña and it was made all of Brazilian tropical hardwood using traditional techniques and was in some ways better than the originals due to the superior quality of wood. Climbing the rigging without rat lines and hauling the anchor by hand could be a little daunting, but it was a great three months!

I note the Eurocentric approach. Nothing about the Pacific and its diverse multi hull voyaging canoes and outriggers. These were skilled navigators and explorers who ventured over the Pacific which covers one third of the earths surface. Large vaka, double hulled canoes were made without iron or steel tools. Coral, shell and stone were all that was available. These vessels were fast, stable and safe, totally constructed from local material. The designs came from the Lapita peoples from Melanesia over 3000 years ago, who settled in Tonga, Samoa and Fiji before moving on to Eastern Polynesia and last of all New Zealand.

We have an shallow fjord in Denmark called Holckenhavn (Holk harbor). The Caravel was used as a tre masted warship in Scandinavia (at least two was build in 1510 and 1517 respectively) - a sleeker version of the Galleon.

@clark9992 6 күн бұрын

Is this AI generated? Because there is so much wrong with this video. For starters, a Hulk is not a category of sailing vessel. That Viking boat is nowhere near the oldest boat found. North American fur traders did NOT use dugout canoes. They used bark canoes. And "medieval" is not a period of North American history.

Am I the only one who finds it really irritating that the illustrations don't seem to have any relation to the ships they're discussing for a lot of this? Really poorly researched, for the hulk they just googled the name and ended up showing pictures of prison hulks which were a 19th-century invention... Plenty of good videos about ships on youtube but this ain't one of them
