Our hearts go out to Nick and family for the coming year! I've always enjoyed this channel and Nick's efforts!

Wishing you a full and speedy recovery. Wishing your family their husband and dad back at full strength. Thanking you so much for your passion, your talent, love the channel.

I hope Nick makes a full and swift recovery.

Good to see the channel active again. Best wishes for Nick's recovery. The updates posted by his wife have been appreciated. And stay strong with the family growing.

My heart soared when i saw that this channel had uploaded, I've been waiting for an update on Nick for ages! I hope he does make a fast recovery, he deserves the best of everything and has always had such beautiful responses to any of my messages. This channel is fantastic and has provided me with so much in terms of knowledge and not feeling alone, even being as far away from its source as I am in New Zealand; I owe that to Nick and believe that he will recover and be able to continue doing what he loves and deserves to be doing ❤️

The story IS epic. Afew months ago I had several hours to waste and listened to the Epic of Gilgamesh. It was not a waste of time. This video filled in some background for me. Thank you. Know that prayers are being said for Nick. I am looking forward to seeing him on the channel again interviewing guests!

Hang in there Nick.

Thank you for stepping in and giving us an update. Get well soon, Nick!

I'm hoping 2022 is a much better year for you!

Nick is such a lucky man to be supported by so many professionals in his time of need, may this coming year bring him back to us as soon as possible! Edit: if y'all haven't been to his donation page, we just got an update that he's doing better, though still recuperating. Do your best to rest and recuperate, Nick, you've got so many people waiting for you, most important of which are your family, of course!

Real OG here

Peace,Thank you for the knowledge ...

We love you Nick!!! Cant wait to see to you healthy and giving interviews and such again

Prayers for Nick and his loved ones.

Only just found this channel and after some research on Study of Anitiquity discovered that Nick had passed away in 2022. My heart goes out to his wife and family.

Blessed king of uruk. Blessed be our ancestor and king gilgamesh. May The Lords-Ladies like Marduk and Enlil and Ea/Enki and Ishtar and Anu and Shamash and Zarpanit and Adad and Nergal and Ninurta and Ninhursag Bless and us if we repent and follow the True Lords-Ladies Divinities They.

Please God have mercy on Nick! Get well!

The "myth subject" is one that begs for research and a full application if the *"Standards of Science and Research/SSR"* (these include: *it is required that the Mind be fully Open, absent in the individual's or any: Beliefs, Thworries, Opinions, Assumptions, or Ideas that would interfere with the proven Methodologies of Research resulting in the facts from all the data entered.)* Key: all of the artefacts, fossils, Oral and Written Histories are required for the fuller picture from the resulting facts to be captured. Note: *the current "Mainstream Academics particularly the Archaeologists literally stand in opposition to the "SSR", as they have adapted a 19th Century Theory as the focused fact foundation, from which they established a Paradigm and Timeline, which they used as a measure, and in which they force all to fit. ... a bit like "Trying to put Cinderella's Shoe on Drucella's Foot" In doing so, they have also "ignored Peer Rev8ewd Journal Published facts", and continued to hold to their "Story" and Teach it as if it were absolute, as if it were "Peer Reviewed facts". Myth, in keeping with the "SSR", I would have to say that the potential greater *"Myth Makers" are the 20th Century - current Mainstream Academics/Archaeologists and Historians".* DNA will release the hold that has limited the advancement of clarity on our History Truths. It really already has, but is yet to be given in common knowledge fully to the greater population of Academia and the Public. DNA studies indicate that the Modern Humans are a result of Intervention, rather than the Evolution Theory applied. ...the Mainstream Academics behaviors are a bit Dogmatic-like, wouldn't you say? Higher Mind is required to achieve the level of Academia where Wisdom resides. Without Judgemental intentions, diagnose the behaviors to understand the subjects. Note: *Those whom follow the "SSR" are "Authentic Academics".* "... Perspectives"

Bless your soul

Wishing you a full and complete recovery, your heart is a precious one. Always appreciate your chanel and work of the highest quality, like this one Gilgamesh example here.

My thoughts are with you bud! You will pull through! Peace and love

Nick! I love you man😃 Keep the thoughts positive my G😽 Your mind can truly make the difference❤🧠 Thank you for everything you've creationed🥲😁

Best wishes for Nick and his family.

I am praying for Nick & his family🫂

GET WELL NICK. YOU ARE ONE OF THE VOICES OF OUR GENERATION

Wonderful content as per usual. I check your community page constantly for updates to your health, every time hoping to see that you will be on the mend and ready to get back to your family and creating the content you (and we) love. Sending you and your familly all my love and positivity. I wish I had the funds to donate to your GoFund me, instead I leave your playlists open in a another window and it plays day and night for ad revenue. If anyone else cant donate, this is another way to help in a small way.

So sorry to hear about Nick. His delight in history has been inspiring for me.

Get well soon, Nick. I wish you the best. It is truly disturbing that the US does not care better for its vulnerable citizens when they need it the most. A decent healthcare system would not create a need for something like Gofundme.

God bless

I hope he is okay, god bless his commitment to the ancient past... Thank you for the enlightenment you've brought to the world 🙌🏻

Thanks

very interesting

15:00= the hun Attila too , was buried in the riverbed too , 3 boxes = gold , silver , marvelstone .etc...

OMG NICK, my thoughts and prayers/energy go out to you brother... I'm so seriously sorry for you my friend. I wish you the best

Thanks T-Nick

FORZA NICK, FROM ITALY!!!!

🙏🏻

So this is the Genesis story that precursor the one in the Bible.

I hope for the best for you

Pobedićeš, svi smo uz tebe, molićemo se svi za tebe i tvoju porodicu

I went septic a couple years ago. First hint that something was wrong to convulsions and kidney failure took only about four hours. In my case it was caused by intestinal perforation caused by an abdominal infection I was not even aware of. A brutal experience that came out of nowhere. The hospital staff did not expect me to recover but I did. Though this sort of thing reminds you of your mortality there is always hope, there are some wonderful IV antibiotics. Best wishes.

Donated.

Very good! Hey Nick! Chicken soup, bub. I'm telling you. Couldn't hurt. 👵👍♥️

If the fundraiser were NOT on go fund me I'd donate for sure.

Thanks , checked out , in hungary still have " tons " of sumierian names = gilgamesha = gilga > galga , mesha>mácsa >galgamácsa , etc...

Gilgamesh was searching for the Anti- Life Equation

Joseph Campbell did not have a full translation of the Epic of Gilgamesh when he wrote "The Hero with a thousand faces",but man Enkidu/Gilgamesh fit perfectly with his idea of the hero's journey.

So what happened to the scorpion men ? All the best to Nick.

I hope Nick will be back where he belongs soon.

Just came here now, but apparently this guy died? Sorrt to hear that. Nick Barksdale, better known online as Study of Antiquity and the Middle Ages, formerly S A M A, abbreviated to SAMA History, (June 1991 - June 2, 2022 [aged 30-31]) was a KZfaqr who made history videos. Study of Antiquity and the Middle Ages | Wikitubia - Fandom

This guy is a bulldozer!!!! please tell him I want to tell him that, WHEN he gets better. 🙏❤️💞….😘

WAIT WAIT WAIT WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. HOLD ON MAN. WTF. IS DUDE GONNA BE OKAY???

Still praying.

may Nick be more strong than Gilgamesh! pray for him and his family, bless them all.❤

What kind of dog was that in this first statue?

Our prayers are for you and your family G-d bless you all.

Kings and Queens are for the birds Religion is the bane of human existence Its totally relevant, if he was a real person or not

Just say NO!

Should of been taught instead of 90% of the stories I was made to read as a child to adult in America school system ,but then there would be no supremacy and j lies etc stay high and stay free✌❤

Ok so this video alone has 9,000 views and currently Nick has an average of 2000 donations C’mon people chip in for Nick and his family Show how powerful humanity can be Nick.. best wishes Mate

Ancient Mesopotamia(Iraq)❤❤❤

The Language of the Sumerians was Hebrew.They, camefrom Congo, in West Africa.

Well, I came here for ancient history and found a medical emergency! I do hope he makes a full and complete recovery very soon. {:o:O:}

may allah watch over u your family, and may he be merciful to your situation, inshallah.

P.S.god bless

My thoughts go to Mark and his family.

I would venture to guess Gilgamesh was a hybrid Angel and decedent of Adam. As per genesis 6 of the Bible. I also believe the name Gilgamesh has something to do with clay? From my google translator Uzbeki language gilga is clay? Job was from UZ now Uzbekistan. Job they think is the oldest book of the Bible? Before the great flood Adam lived a long time they all did. After the flood they were given 120 years only. Gilgamesh could mean made of clay? He was not immortal. Maybe a true man? It’s said he was 2/3 God and 1/3 man or vice versa? Perhaps he was even a giant? His mother made enkidu as a friend for Gilgamesh. She was a goddess it seems? Another hybrid. This story has definite truth to it and is a quest for the meaning of life. Utanapishnek is Danish for without Whips. Means I think he didn’t own slaves or didn’t have a whip taken to him? The fallen angels created their own special hybrids called LuLus. I believe from Neanderthals or Cro-Magnon? Luo luo has something to do with caves in Finnish which is also Ugarit coming from ancient Syria. Found in manuscripts in the ancient port city of Ugarit. In Syria. I believe some of the Finns may be Phoenician refugees from the sacking of Lebanon by Alexander the Great in about 200 bc? This is all speculation on my part but I have researched quite a bit. I hope Nick recovers quickly? Get a google translator and see what you can find? The Finns have a mysterious language and Estonian seems to be a sister language to it? Maybe even older? Thank you so much for the story. Beautiful rendition.

Ave Thamizh - Mother of all Languages! Gilgamesh Epic Story belongs to Thamizh Civilisation. All names starting with kittu Sounds Thamizh. Sumerian Civilisation is an offshoot of Tamil's Civilisation - which is also the root of all human civilisation. We will have a comprehensive and complete Understanding of History only when we understand & Discover the Root. The most Ancient text is Tholkaappiyam - A Tamil Grammar Book. Praise to Thiruvalluvar - The Sage of Human Race.

Well the compilation of the Bible began with Moses, well after the Sumerian texts but Abraham (Abram) was a Sumerian of the city of Ur living some ten generations after Noah. Abraham's father was one of the sculptors in the city of Ur. So it's not that one account precedes the other as they were essentially describing the same events. The Bible is by far the most accurate account of events backed by by thousands of archeological finds.

Meaning of life .... first to please God .... 2nd to bring about eternal fruit ( souls ) .... bringing [GLORY TO OUR KING ] JESUS ✝️ ❤

Bye....
