This medieval map leads to happiness | Dr Karel Fraaije explores the Hereford Mappa Mundi

Dr Karel Fraaije travels back in time to explore a hidden treasure from the English Middle Ages: the Hereford World Map. This enormous artwork shows what thirteenth-century scholars from England thought our planet looks like. The document is dotted with ancient legends, biblical sites, and a great number of presumptions about strange and distant places. The mapmakers even proposed that some peo...
Lol, that map is extremely ACCURATE!! I have seen the exact shape of the water and Jerusalem- the REAL JERUSALEM from a video of a launch.
Have a wonderful day too DR. K
Algorithm, please favor this channel!
Wow, both of your videos are incredibly made and also you choose so very interesting topics, not just battles like almost every other history channel. Its a crime that this gets less than thousand views - fuck the algorithm, it should have put you on the start page of every history-interested viewer.
Thank you very much. More coming soon. Maybe it will help :)
Super interessant ! Bedankt voor het maken, heb het ook met mijn collega’s gedeeld 😊

Great video Dr. Karel 😁 amazing quality!! very well done!!
Thank you so much 😀
Insane production quality my man!! Keep em coming 🙏
So very interesting and entertaining. What a charismatic host. Thank you.
Very interesting and insightful. It's a pity that the explanations are so short and that there are questions that are unfortunately not answered. Why does this map lead to happiness, or what´s about Europe, Asia, Africa in details, what is behind half the globe? But it´s fun to watch!
Thank you very much for the kind words. It would be tremendously interesting to delve deeper into the questions you outline; plenty of material for a second video. For now, I'll keep it (too) short by offering just a small anecdote I thought might interest you: the scribe who wrote down the names of the continents on this map made an unfortunate (but humorous) error: he mislabelled them. On the Hereford Mappa Mundi, Europe is called 'Africa' and Africa 'Europe'. Very confusing! Once again, thanks for commenting; greatly appreciated!
