An interesting talk, but sadly I gave up listening as the lecturer kept walking away from the mic.

I recall someone countering a similar point about biographies about napoleon "there are hundreds of different biographies because everyone interprets certain things differently and rationalises that within the evidence in the narrative"

All i can hear is Irish Travellers. We are still here

Very interesting talk.

looks like otzi was either an exile or a brigand

Watch later

It seems to me that a site such as what evolved at Brodgar may have been the heart of connected communities much farther afield than just the Orkneys. It must surely have been a center known wide and far throughout the British Isles, and Scandinavia in all likeliness. Pre-dating and likely seeding the culture which resulted in Stonehenge, and all pre-dating the pyramids. It will certainly be interesting as various finds are investigated and examined, that there will likely be items made far from the Orkeneys themselves? And too, it may then be as likely, items made at the likes of Brodegar may be found elsewhere far and wide. It fills you with a really unsettling, yet beautiful chill up one's spine each time more is revealed about these sort of sites, and re-writes what we think of these so called ''primitive'' people. To me there is nothing primitive about this highly efficient way of life with minimal technology as we know it. Everything that lay around them was their technology: Stone, grass, bark, wood, plant fibres, clay, sinews, bones, an so on.

I think that the preservation of Mesolithic sites is dependant on the subsequent land use. A distribution map might lead to incorrect assumptions. I think that Mesolithic dwellings will have been nearly everywhere.

Lovely lecture. I look forward to hearing the rest in this series.

Brilliant and engaging presentation!

Heat waves rolling across the country and its only the middle of June , AYE RIGHT ! the ghouls think everyone believes their broadcasting brothels just like Genocidal Zion there will be no forgiveness for their collusion in these crimes and others

Seems to me there are lots of shamanic elements in these rituals.

I think I have a new respect for my washing machine which unfailingly loses only one sock 🤭 But seriously… what a very interesting series this is. Already enjoyed the previous two parts and looking forward to the rest ✨🙏✨

I lived in Forres and Elgin for many years and have ancestors who came from Covesea and I never even knew the caves were there 💁😳 How interesting to discover such a rich archaeological history for my home territory 😁

The transcription is absolute rubbish.

DEI is just anti-White racism. Can we go to Nigeria, China, Peru and demand these things? Basing things on people's skin color, genitilia or who they sleep with, has nothing to do with science. Why do you gave to build an inclusive audience? Lastly, these people are marginalized, it is just empty rhetoric. Why do you gave to build an inclusive audience? It is like that anti-White racist berating Parliament, because Scotland a White country, is run by White people. Disgusting! Can we just get back to treating people with respect, allowing them to succeed on their merit, and having them take interest in something, because it interests them?

It occurs to me this and some other precious metal hordes may have been buried by metalworkers to protect their materials in a time of limited access to unworked metal.

Refreshing view of previously negated facts.

Art travels freely. Ideas are like that.

Very well done.

It's crazy to think of all the change that Queen Elizabeth saw in her lifetime, having lived trough all of this.

So the moral of this typical tale of history is to invest in a backup plan in what is feasible, like higher tech Nuclear Batteries.

I think they could be compared to structures even further away. The Tas Tepeler sites in what is now Turkey were also built on bedrock, and in circular shape with a wall within a wall. Also, if the brochs were built by the Picts, who some believe to have been of Scythian descent, they could have brought the idea with them and passed it down. I know this is something that probably seems far-fetched but it's always good to keep an open mind when we don't know who built them or why they were made this way.

Ευχαριστώ πολύ. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My DNA test results showed that I am related to several people found in the covesea caves… so this greatly interests me.

I wonder if these comparative experiments (human child--chimp--orangutan) really show us what you think they show us. We would need results of experiments designed by chimps and orangutans to know what? Probably that chimps are better at some things than humans and orangutangs, and orangutangs are better at some things than chimps and humans. I'm not being flippant. These "experiments" showing foregone conclusions are not scientific. And are dangerous in that they encourage the experimenters and audience to preen themselves on imagined human superiority. Particularly the male half of our species. By the way, were the human child(ren), chimp(s), and orangutang(s) studied all male?

What was the maximum size of Ukraine prior to the Soviet era

Pictish raiders and pirate's was the main reason the Romans invaded Caledonia. Pictish and later Scottish raider incursions into England jealous of their wealth was an on going problem that went on well on to the 17th Century.

If indo aryans built the passage graves several thousand years ago why focus on 600 bc in hallstatt as the origin point. I just find this lecture to be incredibly flawed in scope of the timeline of relevant information. There's a mountain of evidence to suggest the origin point is much older and halstatt theory is now very old and I would say debunked, it's a pretty ridiculous theory based on a very old 19th century observation on very little material evidence.

`Saying celtic languages begin forming at 600 bc I think is wrong. Cuncliffe puts it at 4000bc.

Could it be that we of present time don't know enough to make judgements about the SOPHISTICATION of long-ago gatherers?

Wish I could go there😢 I'm in Australia

Just amazing. My Ancestors 😊❤

Absolutely amazing. What will happen to this site long-term?

Thanks for posting this very informative video!!

Comet, meteorite fragments impact to ice sheet better explanation than "climate change"? Look at Carolina bays created by ice sheet fragments blasted out from object impact all over USA. Love real science, always more questions

tried to watch, but sound quality made me quit it

Excellent presentation - thank you for posting.

Its about time that geologists finally discover that their entire theory is built on quicksand. It was conceived in the same way that a writer might write an idea for a book or a film. There is no scientific evidence whatsoever for the geological theory that layers are formed in hundreds of thousands of years. In reality, an earth layer forms in seven days! This is caused by a regularly recurring natural disaster, mainly characterized by a flood, which is caused by a celestial body that revolves in an eccentric orbit around our sun. Therefore, its speed is very high when it comes close to the sun and because the angle of its orbit is almost perpendicular to the ecliptic plane, its speed and gravitational force compared to the other planets are also very high. All this has been recorded by previous civilizations in texts and images that we can find all over the world. The Aztec sunstone is the most beautiful and solid example of such a warning. We explain much more about planet 9, the recurring flood cycle and its timeline, the rebirth of civilizations and ancient advanced technology in the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". It shows abundant and convincing evidence both in text and many depictions. It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: planet 9 roest

Dieser Tsunami hatte eine andere Ursache. ES GAB KEINE EISZEITEN. Nicht eine einzige: physikalisch unmöglich.

Good summary and analysis of a complex topic.

Absolutely fascinating archaeological findings. Thanks for making this available. Quite why KZfaq wants to claim this was caused by man made climate change is beyond me though.... I get a big blue box under the video saying "Context Climate change United Nations Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas." Not helpful KZfaq.

Where is the q and a???

Their noses were thin because they were the Product of Great by the dominant society

Deeply enjoyed this erudite yet concise and informative lecture. A fascinating dive into deep (pre)history.

Who's paying you for articulating this E. O. T. World Is NIGH poppycock, the Nuclear lobby?

The identity of the human bone found off Holland carbon dated 75 years ago is quite likely an allied airman? . The north sea off Holland years ago 85-88 years ago would have had many dead US and other Allied airmens bodies in it leaving skeletal remains. Around 55,000 were killed in raids on Germany , and a high proportion would have come down in the north sea somewhere, rather than crashing or disintegrating immediately. Say 10%? So that's about human remains of about 5,000 allied aircrew ( perhaps 200 axis aircrew also) in three or four years on the bottom of the north sea between Holland and east Anglia . Trawlers have pulled up many bomber engines from the sea bed. I've seen one from a B17 flying fortress . The aircraft body is thin aluminium struts and sheet, so a large aircraft is lost to decay in the ocean easily. But engine blocks are more resilient.

Agga-see not agga-siss, french name. As someone from the area bit of a pet peeve
