Fun fact sub saharan africans usually have around 20% of their dna

Did you forget the highlands of Scotland was in the Uk

Why not those ships were seaworthy and they looked for new stuff all the time

Adam & Eve. And from them, the rest is history.

Fantastic video 😊

I love this comment section. I learn so much from both the videos and the community!😊

“No harts”? Do you mean Harths

Tell you what .. you need to be careful when you google search “ Homo Erectus “ if you spell Erectus wrong you end up presented with Erect Homos

Does the discovery of Göbekli Tepe change the narrative on the script? I have very minimal knowledge, so please don't be mean. Thanks!

Don’t even monkeys like interesting objects? I also heard of a fox that was collecting shoes it had a massive shoe “trophy room.” So it seems extremely likely these skulls were “hunting trophies.”

In places as widespread as North America, Europe, Australia, East Asia and Indonesia, local mythology relating to the Pleiades describe them as seven siblings, frequently with one sibling having somehow gone missing. Notably, there are only six visible stars in the Pleiades - but, 100,000 years ago, there was a seventh visible star. A couple years ago, it was suggested that this might indicate that the idea of the Pleiades being seven siblings might date back that far, to around the time the first Homo sapiens started leaving Africa.

In 30k years, there's gonna be a CZcams video titled Sapeins built a Stonehenge in Nebraska out of Early Automobiles. Why? Could it be that a Neanderthal just thought these skulls looked cool?

i think there is an issue with saying that iron working is soo hard to invent because you need such specialised skills to get tool quality metal out. But to get something hard and shiny out all you need is to heat up iron ore to somewhere in the range of a pottery kiln. Humans love shiny things even if they are practically useless. As evidenced by those meteor iron beads from 3200bc. I see it perfectly possible that some potter made his kiln with iron baring rocks in the walls or floor or super iron rich clay or something and then one day found this cool shiny silvery stuff in there. Worked out it was coming out of these rocks or that specific type of clay, put some more of whatever it was in the there, got more cool shiny stuff. Ground the shiny lumps into beads that people liked. And just kept making things like that and the more they made the more they learned and eventually they got workable iron. Honestly, the process of making bronze is soo different from iron working that the only real similarity is heating rocks up real hot, which also applies to pottery making. It was obviously not an easy presses to complete, given how it didn't spontaneously spring up everywhere. But being unlikely without bronze working and being impossible without bronze working aren't the same

They were probably RELATIVELy egalitarian and matriarchal even like Dravidian culture today.

This sounds like an amazing bio-informatics question!

Agate is banded, it isn't agate. Chalcedony maybe.

Could it simply have been for efficiency? Like certain people processed certain bits of elephant? Cuz that's a big job, & you dont want to approach it in a disorganized manner & you don't want to be at all haphazard about it.

Maybe it’s because the different parts of the brain became more efficient like an improving computer getting smaller over time

Really love this video with accounts from other historians. Brilliant work my friend!

Something funny about saying “shoutout to my Neanderthal wife”

What a bunch of nonsense, who cares what happened to an ape a million years ago. Most of these ape fossils are literally just fragments, like 1 tiny piece of a skull which they use to reconstruct an entire animal. We know very little and this stuff gets debunked or proved wrong all the time.

I can't take her seriously when she puts her pronouns in her title. So stupid.

Love this presentation, it is a ritual…I just think it is the ritual of not throwing away things that might be useful later. Be it tools or art or both.

Going back through old Stefan videos for my fix. I am not disappointed. Amazin’ 👌🏻

Here’s a tip from a random guy that knows nothing about making videos. We don’t need to see you to narrate the video

I say the Vikings left the Azores because they sailed all around and figured out there were no other lands nearby to go plundering when wanted to get a break from listening to their wives and mothers-in-law. That's my theory at least :)

I'd be interested if they found any similar evidence for human occupation WAY further back, as the Azores have some interesting features that seem to mirror the mythical island of "Ogygia" from Homer's Odyssey, but if it was occupied when that was written, it must have been at least 1200-1500 years or so before any medieval Vikings could have landed there.

the horse carts at 11:00 are not horse driven carts, but ox carts (or I believe: cow carts, this is not visible from the images): they are far more distributed in Africa then horses: so why should they have used horses at that time? That is a luxury item, like a Porsche today, though Porsche are more widely described as "great racing cars" than are Volkswagen or Kia. I think it was the same in Africa at that time, why bother about Oxs, when you could make your audiance dream about horses? Mentally the human stayed the same.

Imagine if you had no TV or other media. These stories which only take a few minutes to tell would be part of your entertainment and culture. The people would have plenty of starlit nights to tell them. As long as the generations overlapped the stories could be passed down. Also the stories can be used to help establish landmarks when navigating.

I wonder how many wooden tools have been destroyed by the person using it throwing it in a fire after it is broken. I know I've had axe handles or the like break, and so the next time I was black smithing I just toss the broken wood in the forge

1) The Ice Free Corridor was massive; 2) it probably had terrible plant and animal life - not much easier to cross than the glaciers themselves 3) sailing or rafting is sooooo much faster.

That’s cool but god and the Bible. The devil invented science 🤨 jk

OOh, Scorio! So glad to see The Fast Show has won space in the archeology world. Sminky pinky.

So sad for real you missed Mexico

I loved this one. So interesting! I loved the parts about cuneiform and about the very earliest people.

I’ve seen huskies chase bears, can’t imagine better protection for a nomadic hunter.

first you do not know who put them there, when or why.

Haha, your "big thumbs up" really worked with me! I always forget to like video's that I liked. But you sir, made me like your video for real!

44:44 could always go into some remote cave and carve your name there to be found in far future, assuming there's some intelligent life left, but who cares really? it's just a random name among billions. I get the intrigue and nostalgia thinking about past lives but putting value into having someone know your name I don't understand.

He I am going to buy straws and beer …. So I can join „the table that spans over eons“ Good thing I have a biblical name ;)

The oldest stories are likely those found in our fairy tales - those of the scary gnomes who lived in caves. Look at the drawings of these gnomes still replicated today to drawings of how Neanderthals looked and you get a match.

Looks like what I heard some 30 years ago is finally being discovered through recent research. It appears that several groups of people moved into the New World at different times. The oldest were the Australasians who arrived in South America, traveling down the Pacific coast by boat. A site was found in Northern Brazil with some artifacts and cave drawings (done in a style definitely not Native American). Next came an Ainu type people, traveling the same way, who settled along the Pacific coast of the US and Canada. Later, Sub Saharan Africans traveled across from present day Africa. Btw, all three of these first populations were quite small in number. The Natives entered several thousand years later at a similar time as small groups came in from present day Europe. Much later came Chinese, Polynesian, Egyptian, Viking, etc. So why did the Natives prevail? Most likely they had the most advanced weaponry and hunting styles so as to eliminate/assimilate these other populations. There is an oral tradition among some Natives of Brazil that the mixed descendants of the Australasians were eventually forced southward where they ended up in the southernmost part of South America..

Neet students

you had me until you said skull cult

I think where there was just one set of footprints, that's where he carried me

...hmm..I ask myself if it were all bull crania

Egypt: rabidly homophobic. Screw egypt

​@StefanMilo --- Out of Africa Theory is junk science, antiWhite narrative propaganda, long debunked by Robert Sepehr.

5:46 they went from homo erectus to homo flaccidus

Its not for him to provide evidence, he's not an archeologist. He's pointing out things that should and deserve a deeper look, most of his ideas are taken way out of context. But my question to archeology is; In what time period prior to 12000 years ago was agriculture possible, due to the atmosphere, temps, and geology being where it needs to be for agriculture to take place? 11700 years ago cant be the only time in human hist that agriculture was possible. There must have been a time before the last glacial maximum where earth was calm and conditions sufficient for agriculture and human development.
