46:53 all Iranian archeologists agree that this specific depiction is a woman and not a Eunuch. You mentioned the no bias in the dresses and the Persian language not having gendered pronouns indicates the same that Iranians never had any intention of segregating women. You are a professor of ancient Iranian history yet you mispronounced every single name in this documentary even the most famous kings Cyrus (Kurosh) and Darius (Dariush) the greats. You show photos of women in chador which in front of Persepolis to say an Iranian artist is wrong about how he depicts actual Iranian culture? Don’t you think if he was wrong his artwork wouldn’t be so popular among Iranians? Hopefully more Iranians publish about these issues with the grip of Islamic Republic loosening on our society so people like you wouldn’t represent our culture so badly mis informed.

I would like to see this applied to regular small houses in hot cities. I hope this can be scaled down.

Can anyone please explain what that wooden rod projection is??

i m Pakistani U very nice espeech thnx U Grend mdar

Thanks a lot for you efforts to save our horse breed

Did it ever occur to your that the slides are impossible to read if they are posted on the wall. Adios.

I'd love to see this ancient technology used in Las Vegas Nevada.

What a beautiful , lovely horse. I was veiwing on youtube of a beautiful black, lively horse that was originally destined to slaughter! It was intercepted at Horse Plus Rescue in Tennessee, USA. It was thought to be part Freisian which caused controversy within comments. So through a DNA test it was discoved that of the 3 breeds the top breed was Caspian! Which shocked everyone! It is a beautiful horse and much taller than the the Caspian breed. I'm sure the rescue will find the right adoption person. If you want to know of this Rescue you can find it on youtube. Horse Plus Rescue video at Christmastime whe 17:34 re they rescued over 50 horses. They do mention the 2nd and 3rd breed on this site.

❤🎉🙏👋👌💐

Mutashakiram to Prof. Ahmed and Mdm Narguess for this talk. A few things that resonated with me include; How there are more poets in Farsi/ Urdu. Its important to note that poetry is still part of daily conversation in Iran/ Pakistan/ India but this never happens in the English speaking world. Also i would love to hear Prof. Ahmed’s thoughts on the influence that farsi has had on the sub- continent where it was a court language for hundreds of years. Appreciate a reply on how to connect with you in London. Jalal Rumi

When I was 8 a friend had three young Caspians and I rode Chockie. He was JUST 5 and only recently broken. We went to a few rare animal shows to do displays and he was the sweetest guy.

Incredibly insightful lecture , amazing what eliminates modern mechanical amenities by utilizing passive cooling systems derived from minds of indigenous Architects .

The 1920s Spanish Style houses in Beverly Hills have windcatchers in their homes. I don’t see why we don’t still do this.

Amazing talk!

Absolutely correct me too love it my life is being wonderful by listening to this treasures of art ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great lecture. I became interested in wind towers upon seeing an archive documentary on tv 7 years ago. So much detail and least expected. Pity that for me the audio was a problem and detracted from the quality of the presentation. In review, I'm sure Dr Roaf has become aware that there is a technique in presentation that is just as important as anything else and will see that this deficiency in the future won't reoccur.

There is a variation of this used in the Sauer Castle found in Kansas City.

Was the sperm bank ever set up?

"Chah" is a Persian word for "well". A chah kan is one term for a well digger. Another is "moqanni" which also means a well digger or more specifically, someone who maintains the qanats. Great video!

Cultura más desarrollada que la cultura griega ; cuando Darío invadió Grecia, en Grecia las construcciones eran de madera , con el incendió provocado por los Persas , desapareció el Partenon, quedó hecho cenizas.

His name changed to Goebbels Sami He is a servant and ass kisser of mullas He is no one but a disgrace to Iranian people , sold himself to money for mullas He can’t even speak right English This man cares only about money that’s all He should go and kiss shah foot for sending him aboard ti become a doctor but instead of appreciating he turn his back to Iranian people and became Dr. Goebbels of Iran Best example money won’t but you character You will go down as a garbage in our Iranian history

I have noticed something about Yazd and I hope it get more attention and more research. The windcatchers are not only a way to cool the houses. The city is one cooling system. Please pay attention that most of the houses are covered, most of the alleys and bazaars are covered. Imagine one huge covered city with hundreds and thousands of cooling vents called windcatchers. It is not only the house which gets cool and comfortable, but even if you walk in the street and bazar you are comfortable. It is one living breeding being, one body with a healthy lung.

Awesome old technology🎉

I liked everything except the remarks about the rapidly warming world.

Has forensic facial reconstruction of ancient Persian crania been done to get a glimpse of their features?

Great Research

Hiw more absurd a speech can be! I really can’t get , even the subject of this speech 🦜

Thank you !

This Is A Heavenly Horse ! Life Bless The Eternal Caspian Equine !

What dose it mean discover? It was living but its population decreased. It was known and used for local people more than 5000 years. By discovery prob. Means they get to know it and document its existance in western databases. It is kind of arrogance to say discovery.

Beautiful stunning and magnificent Iran! 😍🇮🇷

Excellent lecture, thank you

Very useful, tank u Mr. Hillenbrand

@ 5 mins 5:00 did you let a child scrible on that chart with mspaint?

Wind channelled through underground tunnels or caverns. Possibly even sewers of major cities like New York may cool the Earth.

Many information are presented for sensationalism rather from actual and researched documents. Instead is using a contemporary fantasy painter’s work to based the ancient history of one the most powerful and amazing empires that mankind has seen. Cyrus the Great freed slaves. There were no veiled women rather women were not only equal to men but also hold high ranking positions in the government. The whole idea in this lecture should have separated the current politics of Iran like veil from the glorious ancient Persia. Thanks.

Pioneering work. Deeply inspirational!!!!!

Good reminder Persians are a technologically sophisticated culture and civilisation. The temporary setback they’re enduring will eventually go away and they’ll return to innovation.

Im investigating,,, if they did tear down just the evil such as Tiamat/Ishtar/Enlil, ok... But if i find out, That the monuments were On Marduk Side/Enki, they will all Meet me face to face aka ALLAH‼️ 👁 have the proff its me they speak of... Blasphemy and prays wont do any good against me, i am the tetrad of 2014/2015 the world will soon see.. Disrespect due to limited knowledge will NOT be tolerated.. here or after so called “death” i rule both sides..🔱

very well said 6:34. I really enjoyed the video thank you

Thx so much

We are a CZcams Chanel and we have a lot of footages about these specific wind towers, we have taken footages from different angles. For more videos please let's have a conversation.

I, as an apprentice had the pleasure of assisting my farrier shoeing a beautiful Caspian mare today. I also want to add that in the box next door was her foal. I did not know that such cuteness existed. im a grown man, father I might add, could be described as manly and stern. I let of a high pitched squeal and "aaahhhhhh, can I please pet now, please"... since it was important to make the farriers visit a positive one, ample time for pets and cuddles was given. Delightful day. I will in the future make sure to provide the finest farrier service for the Caspian breed. Joe from Sweden.

No Zoroastrian worship fire, we worship Ahura Mazda God. We dont worship the creation of Ahurmazda we worship the creator of all things. Dont lie , dont disrespect our prophet and dont insult Iranian culture and history !!!
