What Did Ancient Rome Look Like? (Cinematic Animation) - Krátké a kreslené filmy
There's "Google Earth" but I'm hoping someone will make "Google Earth History" where you can select a year then zoom around the planet...
I love that idea omg
Yo. That would be awesome
I will invest in it
an amazing idea that would be a beautiful thing.
We would need time travel first to be able to accurately do that
This is beautiful , only inaccuracy are the statues. Statues in Ancient Rome were painted with vibrant colors in its entirety...
As well as their floors, ceilings, walls, columns, pediments etc. they took a lot from the Etruscans. Most of Rome’s early kings were Etruscan.
Yes some were painted yet some weren't completely painted the difference between Roma and Greece is that the Italians didn't destroy many monuments and a lot of it was preserved intact I happened to have met an archeology student from Naples and she told me all about where she lived and how statues were preserved in the campiña not destroyed by the Catholic Church, which was a surprise to me.
this is egypt Alexandria
@Jake Haney I think it is supposed to be the Pharos at Ostia (port of Rome) there were a lot of these in the ancient world I think there is one in Spain that is virtually intact.
but they did get washed out rather quickly, and by later times unpainted statues were the custom
It's amazing that ancient Romans were able to create such a magnificent city 2000 years ago. The realism and breath of the video is fantastic.
None of the buildings shown in this video are Roman representations, but Greek ones...
@@juanragonzalez1810 the Greeks were nowhere near the Roman level of engineering
@@antonio2130 Everything you see here is Greek architecture though
@@antonio2130 the romans learned everything they know from the greeks, you are an ignorant idiot. Dont speak about things you have 0 clue about.
As well done as this is it's missing the true scale of the city. Rome was home to a million people. It's missing all of the apartment complexes (yes, apartments) and homes of the inhabitants including all of the societal infrastructure. Warehouses, libraries, parks, bars, restaurants, gyms, stables, markets, brothels, bath houses, public bathrooms, slaughter houses (typically pork), textile making (wool. cotton, etc.), food processing facilities (cheese making, fish sauce known as Garum, wine making, olive oil, bakeries, etc.) Not to mention the scale of the buildings are off, the colosseum could seat 50,000 people. The Circus Maximus (horse racing) could seat 300,000 people.
I wish we still made cities beautiful like this, instead of grey and blocky and depressing
This like saying that modern Rome consists of tourist traps. Not a slum in sight.
Idk man being able to put glass on buildings and not having to soley rely on pillars is nice
@@sandran17 we still use pillars. They're just grey, metal, and formed in cube shapes. Have you never seen a beam or a column?
A lot of places on the Mediterranean still look like that. The Romans kind of invented concrete, though. Nothing is stopping anyone from painting it, though.
Wrong, plenty of modern beautiful cities e.g. Dubai, Singapore, Los Angeles, all colourful Green and White and Blue glass skyscrapers
I bet this wasn’t built in a day
Wow 🤩 I would have never guessed 😆
@@David-se5ph That went over your head didn't it?
Good one, I literally laughed out loud!
Michael Komba I would actually put money on that bet 😂🤪
Bravo. 😁
Everything about Italy, Rome in particular, fascinates me to no end. I'd give anything to see it all one day.
I'm sorry but l have to inform you that you'd probably miss some of it and _not_ manage to see it all. You might miss looking under some staircases for instance, or perhaps overlook a garden shed or maybe omit a hidden tree house.
@@SofaKingShit It goes without saying Imeant I want to see the historical places. I didn't mean that literally.
@@SofaKingShit No need to write a “witty” comment like that.
@@SofaKingShit princeps obvious over here
I hope you get to go to Italy! I went to Rome in 1994 with a Perillo Tour. I think I was the only one in the group who did not have Italian ancestry. The Vatican Museum was great! I stayed almost a whole day in the Forum. Venice is such a gorgeous city too. I first went there as a teen in 1972 and then again in 1994. Go for it!
Spectacular -- but I would love to see more domestic interiors. How did people of various socio-economic strata live, day-to-day? How was their work performed, and with what tools? There room to dig a lot deeper here; I really hope you will!
There are a lot of videos already on youtube about that.
What I wouldn't give just to spend one day walking freely around ancient Rome. Such a fascinating time in history.
Try walking around any Italian or Spanish old town. It's still there.
@@harryflashman3141 Some buildings and walls stand still but the rest is mostly medieval period onwards. I love history but I have enough medieval architecture to look at back home.
Definitely.
@@billofrightsamend4 I mean Italy. Most of the historic buildings are not Roman. It is the same in all European countries, the more centuries back you go, the less architecture there is from that period.
@@maxisussex I walked around Volterra last summer, and I was surprised to see how many Roman buildings were left standing. Many of the shops and apartments date back to Roman times. Some of them even have Latin inscriptions on their walls dedicated to the Caecinia gens, which funded much of the development of the town during the reign of Augustus.
“I came to Rome a city of brick and left her in marble” - Octavian “Augustus” Caesar
No I believe it was "I came to rome a city of clay, and left it city of marble"
@@Thallivius no, it’s brick. The original Latin word used in the quote is “latericius” which means “bricks/brickwork”. It’s a reference to the fact that Rome during the era of the republic was mainly built using bricks, it was quite famous for the look actually. Full quote is this:
“Marmoream relinquo, quam latericiam accepi”
(Literal translation: “I leave marble that which I found brick”)
Alternate history: Augustus became a self-obsessed vegan with too much drrrip.
He was the best emperor ever
@@Thallivius
Brick
Amazing to think Ancient Egypt was older to the romans in that era, then the roman era was to us now days.
That is amazing. It really puts into perspective how much history there is, and how the United States hasn't been around to see most of it.
They was order tho ..
Seriously? That’s amazing
Mindblowing
@@HistorywithMrMink The USA is one of the oldest, continuously operating states with a continuous political system in the world. There aren't many countries, whose governments are continuously operating since the 1700's. For example, almost every modern European state had to be basically re-established after 1945, and many had to be re-established again after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Russian Federation, for example, in its modern state, has only existed since 1991, and its current president is only the third person to hold the office. So, politically, many European countries are very young. National history and culture are a whole different story though. In short, the USA is the oldest modern democracy, the oldest presidential republic with the oldest active constitution in history.
When cities were built for people, not cars. Absolutely beautiful.
Literaly, the romans was a car civylization 😂 like murica today
In fact u cant see any car in the video so what the fuck. Look It Up Román engeniring. The roads were not in Stone and they do no ride horses only in battle
@@liknspin3432 No it wasn't. They didn't have automobiles back then! Only chariots and horse and buggy transportation.
Nice woke slogan, but no. Cities built so people can move in cars are also cities built for people. It's like assuming La Bastida archeological site in Totana was a better eco-woke-nice-bullshit-sustainable city than Rome (chariots + horses) because people could ONLY walk to places. Cars are amazing. Please, do not use them.
@@albers1How is one supposed to marvel at the beauty of traditional inner cities when everywhere you go there are parking lots with cars blocking the view?
Cities were bulldozed and rebuilt for the car, even in the United States.
I have no idea how you did this but I'm so thankful you did.
I thought everything was black and white until the seventies
Rome was in Technicolor, everything else was black and white.
Actually colours were invented in 1968
said bkd the word color
this is because tv was black and white in the seventies... :D
I thought the same when i was a kid 🤣🤣
The only thing lacked in this video is a hooded guy from Siwa with weapons running around stabbing soldiers in the back...
He goes by the name of Bayek..
Nothing is true, everything is permitted
Ayyeeee lol i was looking for Assassins crees comments finally someone who gets it
Never speak of the hidden ones
Sonata Plays and hes a medjay
The animation is incredible! The architecture is amazing! I wish I go just go back in time for just a day to see Ancient Rome when the city was at its peak. Thank you for posting this wonderful glimpse into the splendor that was Rome.
I have always had the belief that there should be an expansion to odyssey that captured that amazing adventure for Greece and allow you to do it for Rome.
The ability to explore and appreciate all of the different aspects of odyssey is what makes it unique and exciting. I want that same adventure in Ancient Rome
Kid.
As an ancient Roman, this depiction is not entirely accurate.
Needs more Color and someone chasing a Peacock for dinner.
Because its not ancient roman. Its hellenistic egypt from the same time period as cleopatra
Ur an ancient Roman?
Hello from 435 AD. Rome was dirty and a mess then. No wonder we were overrun. my own troops wanted to run so badly that I was ended as they retreated.
Simone Yes.
Modern cities look like shit compared to this after thousands of year.
Yet modern man looks down on ancient man.
And it was all built with their hands.
We're in a transition, right now. Just wait a little, and a splendor is going to unfold unheard of in Roman times. The city of Rome is now reincarnating as Los Angeles. All the current skyscrapers of LA together seem to be a reincarnation of the Capitoline Hill, alone. The Colosseum apparently is about to return in the form of the planned space habitat Kalpana One.
you're looking at the wrong cities. There are stunning buildings around the world
@Charmingly Cynical are you serious? Boston, Philadelphia, Rome, Athens. Every nation is proud of its history
This is a truly stunning representation! Thank you so very much for creating this and sharing this outstanding masterpiece ❤
This is absolutely breath-taking; the cinematic action is superb ~
Even as an approximation (geographically inaccurate, too clean, etc.), I love how this brings the past to life, makes it touchable, relatable, like oh, they were actual people like we are and oh, we’re not advanced humans at all, we just have better tech. Fantastic work!
@Biff Himmler my god after a year you still think that meme is funny? Maybe you're the boomer
@Biff Himmler seems like you have a narrow perspective on your world it must be safe though to have a small world
My first thought was also that it was too clean. Still, a wonderful representation of ancient Rome. After all, it was the center of the western world for centuries, so it had to be extravagant.
@Marquis di Veneziano vicomte d'Arfort C'est forcément inexacte puisqu'il ne s'agit pas de Rome, mais d'Alexandrie.
Marquis di Veneziano vicomte d'Arfort bien sûr obviousement es imposible a vraiment capturer exactment cette sigle
What's even cooler is that this is from a videogame and you can actually move arround the world in real time
Magnificent, amazing watching Ancient Rome. Whose stories have fascinated me and others. So realistic. Bring us more. Thank you!
It’s a pure fantasy reconstruction, which mixes architectures from different cities, reinventing them
Looks really great, and really captured the colors of the buildings. The statues, though, would have been painted bright colors as well.
Not just bright, realistic.
Yes everyone forgets that. What an amazing place to live - if you were wealthy.
@@RodFleming-World Lots of amazing things to see and enjoy even if you were poor. Chariot races and gladiatorial games were attended by everyone. And everyone was expected to clean themselves at the hot baths every day, even poor people and slaves.
Yup good point
@@SithLord2066 Yeah. The incomparable excitement of getting to the ground court of Colosseum facing lions and other beasts.
Now I remember why I prefer Antiquity over Medieval times. It was just magnificent.
Precisely
@Siddarth B S Whereas Antiquity was about war for empire, with many more slaves.
Rome had the ritual Slaughter of the weak, General debauchery, shorter average lifespans,
@@universalflamethrower6342 ok, ot Rome, but Ancient times in general. Romans were problematic people.
@@user-nd8no8yw7v our standards are very much Colored by Christianity and more recently Wokianity, perhaps I shouldn't have been judgemental about the Romans. If I was born in Ancient Rome I would have probably acted like an Ancient Roman.
Very beautiful! Thanks for making and sharing this!
Awesome! Magnificent job!
I can't wait to see things like this in VR in the near future, imagine visiting Rome as it was during the peak of the roman empire.
Smoke a joint and take stroll in ancient rome...awesome
@@afgmvp *hits blunt*
Would be fantastic. Especially because of the fact that the awful smell and the dangers of being robbed are absent
You can play it , it's a videogame
currently I am making a sci-fi fantasy vr game with romans, huns and germanic, maybe you'll find it this year :D
Ah yes, the great lighthouse of Rome
Ancient rome is the city and the empire 😉
@@rodrigoaguiar9264 ah you're right
@@WHY-xd5zk take it easy we are just history nerds kidding around :)
@Rajesh Venki you know there is something called Ostia right?
@@rodrigoaguiar9264 Yeah but the Romans didnt build it.
Looks amazingly like Caesar's Palace.
Breathtaking! You have done an amazing job capturing the essence.
E' un videogioco non l'ha fatto lui. E non è Roma
Wow! The footage is incredible, but why weren't the people of Ancient Rome scared when they saw a drone flying over their city?
And when they heard this strange (and not historical) music, floating in the air..
They assumed it was an emissary of Zeus and acted like nothing was going on, lest they be struck down.

@@calmexit6483 early last year i think, the game was a mess, texture didnt appears at 2 metters, mod didnt work because of the new game version, bug everywhere...

And i never understood the gameplay 😅 but thats on me
Quatre Vingt I’m sure you’d love it now!
@@calmexit6483 im good with Bannerlord 😂
Thank you for creating this!
The beauty n peaceful suroundings just makes me in tears.. how lovely to experience that kind of living
Era una metropoli cosmopolita... Caos, rumore, ingorghi stradali... Sovrappopolazione,, odori sgradevoli... Se eri ricco vivevi fuori, in una villa...
It certainly was a beautiful city - one of the most beautiful in history. But remember too that it was a shockingly brutal society (the general public went to the colosseum to watch people being killed ... for fun). The whole society was supported by a huge number of slaves. The people of Rome lived in constant fear of a slave uprising (which did happen more than once). The average life expectancy was 35. Think of that. 35 years old.
This is Nirvana, not Rome. Rome had the population density 3-times of Delhi, people used every square meter for business or just living, streets were so narrow that two men could not pass each other, foul, rotting smell of meat and food mixed with the smell of the public toilets, and just masses of the poor everywhere trying to get a free meal and earn some money for the day. Homes on the hillsides were exorbitantly expensive because the stank didn't reach up there. Its no coincidence that Nero demolished Rome and built parks, lakes and his palace in the middle.
I agree. This is an idealization.
The worst part was the noise. "Only the rich can afford to sleep in Rome".
This certainly depicts a paradise that most people would love to experience. If only it was all that easy.
paradise for the super rich
it wasnt all that easy living there back then even if it looks good
Ancient Rome, for all its beauty was no paradise! There were some enviable things about it if you were wealthy.
Beautiful, incredibly done! Thanks!
This video is so beautiful. I’m in awe of the detail.
I'd like to see the hanging gardens of Babylon.
one rich guy hung some plants over walls. big deal. that isn't a civilization with art, music, dance, CULTURE. it's rubbish.
@@arielstrafing5225 Hey, he did it to make his wife happy. She came from the mountains. It became an ancient tourist trap.

@@arielstrafing5225 Babylon was the first country to have a constitution and they invented writing so yes it is a civilization.
@@alwa8 he is too salty
@@arielstrafing5225 You need help removing the pitchfork that is stuffed up your ass?
Why does it seem like back than things were made with taste. Very beautiful
Because they believed in perfection and not hastily done.
Partly because your definition of “taste” is based on architecture designed by people imitating what they know about Ancient Rome.
Probably because stuff took so much more time to create, it had to "Wow" all, or else, what was the point?
Because it was before the invention of plastic and wood laminate. Also they had thousands of slaves to threaten to get it just right no matter how many years it took. LOL
They might not have been, at least not to the extent that we imagine. There's a tendency to look back on certain parts of the past with an idealized lens.
I absolutely loved this and will for sure view your other productions. Thank you.
Magnificent! Thank you!!
I would have never imagined that the colour red would be associated with ancient Rome.
Is that ironic?
why not? i mean red is everywhere in ancient rome, like shield for example
@@nc6379 its clearly ironic, he is pointing out the stereotype
@Christian Slayer eh. I doubt they painted everything in their cities red.
@@eduardofreitas8336 what stereotype?
It never ceases to amaze me the high level of craftsmanship, engineering, artistry, and imagination that these people possessed to create beautiful structures.
That’s a amazing job! Congrets! I am student and I wanted to know what kind of softwares did you use to model the 3d and animation? Thanks!
What happened to this guy!? These were/are some of the best history videos on CZcams! We need more videos please 🙏
This is from a game, then heavily graded
While everyone wants to see Rome at his peak as an empire, I wanna see the Kingdom early days so badly since there’s barely info on that
Try travelling back..lol
We know very little of the kingdom. It was more of a town than a city.
Not much to see.
probably a few huts and some farms
When did Rome as we know it started?
@@ikagura What do you mean by "as we know it"?
The conventional founding date of Rome is 753BC.
If you mean with all the marble buildings, mainly started under the reign of the first emperor, Augustus: 24BC-14AD
Usually considered at its peak in the 2nd century, which I would say is what is depicted in this vid.
Depends what you mean.
This is amazing! Thank you. Just subscribed.
amazing, thank you for the video!
Crazy to think that everything back then was CGI.
The simulation was still in its early stages, now we have reached hyper realism.
Ur idiiot its not cgi its game footage
I can imagine when millenial kid go to this city somehow, first thing they asked : " what's the wifi password?? "
Our architecture over the last 2 thousand years has gotten worse.
Worse, it's a cheap, chinese-plastic imitation in most cases....
Actually copied most new classical buildings take inspiration from Roman and Greek architecture
It's more like the last hundred years...
Technologically better but modernity seems to have very little regard for 'beauty', which ancients cared deeply for.
Maybe aesthetically worse (although it's a matter of taste), but modern architecture is definitely more functional, cheaper, and consequently more accessible to far more people.
Exquisitely executed. Well done to all involved! The large vaulted “lobbies” with grand staircases reminds me of grand late 19th, early 20th century hotels. Incredible that we lost the knowledge & ability to create such grand spaces for so long. This is why the Roman Civilization remains eternally mesmerizing. I wish I could go back in time. You just gave me the next best thing. Thank you!
E' un videogioco e questa non è Roma ma Alessandria in Egitto
We hadn't lost it, though? Many medieval Cathedrals do have similar size.
This is a videogame, chump
Simply amazing!! 👏👏
You should do one of ancient Babylon or ancient medic Persia,
They aren't on Assassins Creed origins, which is where all this footage is from.
@@Connor_JR all of this footage from assassin Creed origin ?
You're so right!
Dantes inferno 👹
This isn't his. This is from a video game.
Magnificent. I imagine that the great Renaissance artists thought and dreamt of what Ancient Rome might have been like when creating their masterpieces.
The classical ideal.
Such beauty,so much to explore!👍
When cities 2000 years ago looked better than cities nowadays
This is amazing , you open so many eyes. Please do more , the beauty of Greek and Roman architecture is emotional.
Pretty close, there were far more people around, and there was a lot more smoke in the air. The streets were not nearly so clean, many of the statues were painted, the paint inside the halls was much better, but the pallet was limited. There was a lot more mosaic work in the floors, some quite amazing. But compared to what most of us have seen in movies and books this is a huge step up. Oh and I doubt the soldiers wore their armor and helmets all the time, and very few people would be walking around empty handed (probably only the Senators).
@Wayne Campeau I agree I was thinking the same things.Pretty, though. the Tv e series Rome I think did a better job with the looks
It was nicely made but, to me, it looked more like a generic Roman city. There was not a lot that was identifiable as being Rome and I'm pretty sure it didn't have a lighthouse.
@Aymen El Harrachi Maybe so but the game was still supposed to look like ancient Rome, but didn't.
@Reunite The British Empire What are you talking about? The title of the video is "what did ancient Rome look like?" and the description by says "What Did Ancient Rome Really Look Like? Watch this Ancient Rome reconstruction featuring realistic 3D animation to find out. See *_exactly_* how ancient Rome looked" Rome, ancient or otherwise, is not in "Graecia" (or even Egypt. as you wrote before you edited your comment) Ancient Egypt, Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece were very different places, they can't all be just lumped together as "the Olden Days"
@Reunite The British Empire Don't try to patronise me because if that is how you want to play things, I can assure you, you have more than met your match. Of course I know what clickbait is, but even then, if the description says "see exactly what ancient Rome looked like" i'd expect the video to show what ancient Rome looked like. Try to cut down on the ad hominem attacks if you want to be taken seriously.
I had a wish to know and see, how the ancient civilizations look like in the normal day life. How they live, what was a normal family life. I am deeply attracted to ancient history. Well done, you just give me a glimpse of it, if not full but some of it. Thanks for uploading.
Marvelous work! Thanks!
imagine waking up one morning and being in ancient Rome, that would be crazy. This was beautiful and really put everything into perspective! It was so much bigger than I was imagining.
Why would you like that? You're were you have to be in the time & place you are meant to live in.... You would have never met the wonderful people or idiots (you'll think im this) lol you have met!
That would definitely suck for a woman.
Sadly destroyed by pagan barabarian europeans...
@Yesmer - yes, the used the urine (ammonia) to clean but they also used water to rinse afterwards.
This isn't the Rome, rather an "insert generic roman empire city".
And yep, being a woman wasn't a good idea unless you were of high descent. But... You soon would be, by knowing so much relative to most of them. Yep, would be cool unless you infect them.
It was cleaner than most make it be, remember Archimedes had his evrika moment in a bathtub, a forced wash too.
Its really difficult to believe that a city less than 2000 years ago was more beautiful than most cities today!
Pat Chuez really is
It’s because people aren’t destroying buildings like today.
Also because this is a highly idealized version of something that no one has direct experience of
Older cities tend to be more beautiful, I think. I'm not sure why. Maybe because kings/ rulers designed them beautifully to show off. And maybe one reason they could afford to build such nice things was because of slave labor... 😕 like I think the Colosseum was built by slaves
yeah i wish that architecture would be valued today as much as it was back then
Beautiful bit of work. Liked & subbed 🙌
Absolutely brilliant work i personally thankyou so. 👍
I'm off to binge watch the rest. 😉
This makes me feel nostalgic for something that happened thousands of years ago
.
Is it possible to have a version of these cinematics that can be viewed in VR? That would take the experience to another level. Thanks for the content!
I can imagine not long in the future where school kids will able to do that in history class, actual VR with a voiceover explaining the situation, how the architecture was built, the historical figures, dress, politics etc, would be amazing.
@@aldunlop4622 that reminds me of a simpsons episode that I once saw
Seria glorioso, como en los tiempos de gloria de Roma.
Nice video, thank you. And The music is great
Having, at best, an ambivalent relationship w/ technology, I find this video fascinating. Both the opportunity to experience an ancient city & the skills to create this simply blow me away. Well done, more, please!
Incredible! I spent a memorable summer in Rome. Some of the buildings offer laser light experiences in the evenings where one can view what once existed in certain parts of the city. Watching this brought me back to that experience. What a thrill. This animation is truly a special experience.
do you know that there are buildings in rome that are used ever since the roman times ?
You should visit Pompei...
It makes me incredibly sad this is the beauty I will never behold with my own eyes
Love it! Gives much more of a feeling for how the city would be inhabited than the bland architectural models. But it would be even better if it had on-screen annotations with the names of the key buildings and, say, the direction of view - e.g. looking south toward the Colosseum..
It is impossible because this is not Rome and that is not the Colosseum.
Absolutely beautiful and good video. Congrats!
Loved it--especially the little details like the birds, smoke and various people. Well done!
Beautiful imagination.
In reality the population density / trash was intense.
Everybody was living on top of each other in Rome.
Imagine a city with 1 million people, horses. No sewage or trash disposal during weekends.
No "weekends"...
They didn't have unions and I very much doubt they had a five day working week. You also haven't factored in Ancient Rome's workforce was predominately slaves.
This isn’t Rome.
Ancient cities definitely had sewage and waste disposal lol. So did Medieval cities (no city could function with shit and rubbish piling up everywhere), it was just less efficient.
One roman soldier says to another:
"The stench around this city is unbearable"
The other: "I got an idea. I bet i can get some of those slaves to clean the horse shit up."
30 years later he was censor with tens of thousands of cleaner slaves, in both senses. And probably was the one to fund some of the early aqueducts both into the city and out of it. Rome also had sewers, just more direct to the end of the river through the cloaca maxima and docens of aqueducts at a time feeding massive bathhouses for every class. The idea that it stunk constantly is ridiculous, they had their times of chaos, but it was mostly a highly organized city.
Just breathe taking! Thank you! More of such needed!
Well done! Amazing accomplishment by. Brings it to life.
Wow! What a surreal journey back in time! I hope that you will continue to create more of the same. Thanks for sharing!
Ya, everyone knows the statues in ancient Rome were once brightly painted.

Great production but the title is misleading.

@@ArturoEscorza Thank you for that lucid rebuttal of my argument; I shall fall on my sword immediately out of remorse for failing to merit even a morsel of respect from such an erudite contributor.
@@ponybottle - Sorry but you deserved it. They spent hundreds of hours creating something amazing for free and all you can do is criticise it without even bothering to read the title. Snotty people like you make the world a miserable place, especially for creative people. You produce nothing creative of your own but just stop long enough to tear down the work of others. Even in your rebuttal, your only instinct is to condescend and you use a couple of big words so you can leave feeling superior about yourself.
You are what we call in Scotland a tosser.
@@AnyoneCanSee I'm sure you're correct, I'll just fall on my sword a second time in recompense.
As to my being a 'tosser' ( I believe the equivalent term in my part of the world is 'wanker'?) - I would have to confess I have always considered myself to be a wanker, but it is always gratifying to have one's opinion confirmed by an expert in the field.
@3MM4 P33L
Thanks for that contribution.
I couldn't care less for your opinion.
No wait!
I just did....
kinda wish i could time travel just to see some cities in its hay day
Beautiful work, New Historia. Just MANIFICENT. Thank you.
Obviously a sanitized version but I like that it captures how colorful it must have been, not the pale marble that survives.
ITS A VIDEOGAME
This is lovely! love to see more ancient cities with cinematic impressions done this way - it aids alot in understanding at which place in time and history we are and observe how they have shaped our lives today, it feels, like history is not so distant anymore. This is awesome!
This was truly breathtaking. I feel as a modern society, we have the habit of looking back on our ancestors and thinking of them as being subpar in intelligence, architecture, etc. We also tend to put up a wall between us and them, thinking that they were so different from us. But at the end of the day, I think our ancestors were highly intelligent and did incredible things with the resources at their disposal. I also think we have more in common with them than not in terms of worries, struggles, interests, etc. :)
Anyone who thinks that is clearly a moron. The likes of Rome had a well functioning empire with trade and commerce that wouldn’t be seen until the 15-16th century. A man from Ancient Greece figured out (roughly) the circumference of the earth with a stick. The average brain has shrunk since these time’s because people knew how to SURVIVE. Our ancestors were awesome, we are backward in a lot of ways compared to them.
@@troygrindley3793 While I think this perception is flawed, I don't find people moronic who may believe it...sheesh. I was just illustrating a point but there's no need to be arrogant and condescending to other people who may not think like we both do about our ancestors...
Things certainly looked a lot more beautiful back in those good old days of slavery.
Jeremy Ashford it was skilled labor not slavery
@@jeremyashford2145 Gracious. Can't even make a harmless comment anymore about a passion of mine without someone coming along to spread their negativity.
The exquisite taste in color pallettes and thier meticulous planning of complexes is still a wonder to be hold upon to even by this era that we are living in. It looks phenomenal! Even by today's standart
It’s not real my friend.
This literally brings tears to my eyes it’s so amazingly beautiful!
This is the ancient Rome the Ancient Romans wished Rome should have been like.
I too think it is a little bit over the top. So clean and bright and perfect were only city centers and some palaces. The majority of city areas were dirty and the architecture was simple.
This was a utopia
Yeah, probably Rome was like this only near power and religious buildings, especially those whose structures are still standing
@@filippog6024 Or during its better years, during the 1st and 2nd century along with the height of the republic - when the state was able to focus on more thorough infrastructural maintenance.
They obviously took inspiration from the ancient city of Las Vegas.
😁
They didn't obviously take inspiration from a stupid guy like you, respect my culture.
@@federicobiraghi7526 Oh come on! He was just joking.
Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas used to have a re-enactment of Roman soldiers come through the casino every hour or something like that, and even though I knew it was fakey and inaccurate, still, I'd get a little thrill to see them march through.
Your work is magnificent! Thank you!
Brilliant!! I absolutely love it. Whenever I visit these ancient ruins, I often try and think about how it looked every day and how people of that time lived their lives. You forget certain things like traffic was made up of camels, horses etc. Thank you for creating this and keep up the great work. 🙂
I don’t know they the guy who made this video is acting like this is Ancient Rome in the video. This is ptolemaic egypt.
With some images of Athens as well?
