Hello from Turkey! Fantastic video. Definitely on our list! Btw, there is a little bit of good news after the terrible earthquakes in the Hatay region, there has been no damage to Gobekle Tepe and surrounding sites, plus though there was some damage to the main museums all the artifacts were safe.

2:57 - It always bugs me when people try to claim the Egyptians did not have the wheel. Have they not seen carvings of Egyptian chariots? What people do not understand is that in 95% of Egypt the wheel is functionally useless because the surface is sand, or mud, and so they seldom used it for transporting stuff.

@almitrahopkins1873 Жыл бұрын

That always torqued me off as well. People who say things like that tend to follow it up with saying that only a laser could cut stone too. I suppose painting Egyptians as near-primitives gives their nonsense about a missing ancient high-tech culture more plausibility.

@BSIII Жыл бұрын

Those carvings of the wheel were created when Egypt was already ancient, middle Kingdom/new kingdom. They weren't using the wheel on the Old Kingdom period, though they knew of them. They used the Nile to travel at that time.

@BSIII Жыл бұрын

You have to realize Egypt existed for thousands of years. Those carvings you're talking about, Egypt was already about 2,000 years old.

At the 10:00 mark you labeled the 3rd figure as Osorkon I. That is actually his younger brother Iuput. Shoshenq I made Iuput the High Priest of Amun at Karnak and Governor of Upper Egypt to help consolidate his rule. When Egyptologists started excavating Tanis in the late 19th century, they initally thought it was Pi-Ramesses due to all the blocks they found containing his name. It wasn't until 1960's/70's that Egyptologists found evidence that Pi-Ramesses was located 30 km (19 mi) south of Tanis near the village of Qantir.

But that rarely happens on this channel. And I know that your comment is correct. So thank you! There is so much fascinating info about Tanis and Pi-Ramesses, the story of the people and archeology, and the silver sarcophagus and golden mask, that I wish David would make a whole video on it soon. It could easily be an hour long, and people would love it!

I love these David! Thanks! It's a very unique concept too. This type of video both brings back wonderful memories of my 1st trip to Egypt (when we had an excellent guide for the entire trip) and helps me envision details of my next one. It's very helpful. It also gives a better glimpse of you as person, at the sites that mean so much, and without the formal shirt and tie. Your enthusiasm never seems to wane, and I like you very much for that. I only wish you had gone into more detail about the story of the solid silver sarcophagus and golden mask, the likely borrowing (or theft by the pharoah from an earlier deceased pharoah) of those things, and the story of the archeology at Tanis and Pi-Ramesses. But then, that would be another hour long video on it's own. I sure wish you would do that one soon though! People would love it! Your knowledge, enthusiasm, and sense of humor combined are such a treat for viewers! (Especially the joke about the Shoshenq Redemption!) Your channel has long been among my very favorites, so please never stop! I love your work!

Sheshonq is Libyan Amazighn king from ancient Libyan Amazighn tribe called meshwash in Libya 🇱🇾. His family was of Libyan Amazighn descendants too. He ruled Egypt. And later his sons and grandsons ruled Egypt from generation to generation. It's historically a fact.
