- The real faces of the Roman Emperor Theodosius I, the Great who was the last emperor to rule the entire Roman Empire before it was forever split between two separate Empires, one Western, and the other Eastern.
Theodosius' sons, Honorius whose chaotic reign and irresponsible character caused the sack of Rome for the first time in 800 years. A re-worked and more accurate face of Arcadius a weak emperor, who was dominated by several powerful ministers. Also the real face of the emperor Theodosius II, who build the Theodosian Walls of Constantinople.
Theodosius II looks like the kind of Greek guy you find selling knick knacks in Mykonos lol
Great video! The Theodosius dynasty is one part of Romen history I’m not especially knowledgeable of (other than Honorius who is horrible).
all of them were terrible, useless bunch of murderers that destoyed the western part (not only Honorius but Valentinian III too) and almost the east, thank goodness Anastasius brought greatness again to the empire just to be destroyed again by Justinian, the never ending story of the slow fall of the roman empire.
Qué maravilla¡¡¡ conocer a los Emperadores de ésta Dinastía y que atractivos ¡¡Arcadius y Honorius¡¡
Gracias por una biografía tan bien resumida. Espero con ansias el siguiente video. 👏👏👏
🌹
Magnificent!
I have waited so long for you to do the Theodosian dynasty, although I wish you would've added Stilicho.
And now, you must do the Valentinian dynasty... You know you want to, and we all want you to.
I could try :-)
@@panagiotisconstantinou Could you do King Charles I and II (England)? Oliver Cromwell?
@@panagiotisconstantinou By the Emperor you shall make it.
@@Bklyn93 I would prefer if he did the big men of 1066 first: William, Harold and Harald.
Thanks!
i have always likes their hair cut , very simple , just brush hair forward
surprised by the choice of music. well done on both the portraits and the score.
Excellent once again, beautifully done. Your work along with the music you pick brings these great people of long ago closer to our time. I get the chills to think I could someday be honored to meet these great people.
Thank you very much!
Great work! I think the time has come for you to work with the motion picture industry to create a complete history of the empire from Romulus to the collapse of Constantinople. Just an idea! Again, your creations are superb!
Suggestions for other reconstructions:
- Napoleon Bonaparte 🇫🇷
- Duke of Wellington 🇬🇧
- Oliver Cromwell 🏴
- Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna 🇲🇽
Etc.
Another good effort. I particularly enjoyed seeing the family, father, sons & grandson. When you have time to do more I would appreciate you doing similar groupings with their history. They way you do it makes sense for someone who hasn't studied this area. Thank you very much 😊
Fascinating as always. Thank you.
Thank you. Beautifully done
Thank you another fantastic video, love them all.
Your work is amazing. and delightful. Thank you.
fascinating stuff i have often wondered what the ancients looked like, while its hard to see complexion you got it close enough to get a good handle what they looked like keep them coming
Love this!!!! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Thank you 😊
Such amazing! what AI/program did you use to recreate all this historical faces?
Very interesting thanks.
Very welcome
EXCELLENT! Love the music!!
Excellent! One of my favorite Byzantine dynasties. So many holy Eastern Orthodox Saints lived during this time, like Gregory of Nazianzus, John Chrysostom, Cyril of Alexandria and many more. You should do the next dynasty of emperors after this! Some of the patristic church fathers would be interesting, too.
This was great! Please can you post something from the Persian empire sometime! Maybe a king or two or a dynasty.. it would be interesting as we don't really see a lot of information about that era
Fascinating as usual. It would be cool to see some more recent historical figures, Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, etc.
Indeed it would be interesting 🤔
Такие все симпатичные!... ☺️
Great work! It is fascinating to be able to see the emperors faces. But I am sorry to tell I missed Gala Placidia in Theodosius I family. She played an important role, too. She can be seen as a bridge between romans and goths. I would very much like to see her portrait or named.
More to come!
And women of Theodosian Dynasty were interesting... Give them a chance! Especially Eudoxia, Pulcheria and Athenais - Eudocia. The last one (wife of Theodosius II) was the daughter of an athenian philosopher.
You are right, but there is also Gala Placidia. She was important in this dinasty. She was daugther, sister and wife of emperors, and empress- regent, too.
Do the last Romans who tried to restore Rome, Julian, Majorian, Aetius, Stilicho, Belisarius.
Are those the same walls that still exist around Istanbul? The ones that one sees from the Bosphorous?
I thoroughly enjoy your videos and look forward to seeing more. Thank you.
*Constantinople and yes to your question.
@@Michael_the_Drunkard thank you
Γλυκιά πατρίδα. Έρχεται η ανάσταση της πατρίδας, η απελευθέρωση της νέας Ρώμης.
Great, I'm just missing Honorius' nephew, Emperor Valentinian III., who ruled from 425-455 in western part.
Great suggestion 👍 the last Valentian emperor that will be done.
Their rule started a 1000 year old empire!
The Nicene Church in the East must have had a very swell day when Theodosios I overturned all Arianization progress in the East with Constantinople I (381) and created imperial decrees that head-on attack paganism. I guess every religion in the medieval era was (and still is) just a product of its geopolitical circumstances.
What about Valentinian III and Marcian?
Will definitely do a clip about them!
Both are from the Theodosian dynasty
Ugh, the bust used as a reference for Honorius is exceedingly more associated with Valens.
Extra !
How far down the Theodosius lineage can you go? My maiden name is Teodosiu and I was born in Romania. It has been verbally passed down for generations that the Teodosius are descendants of a King. As a child I always thought it was cool (what girl doesn't want to be a princess, right?) but then in college I learned about Emperor Theodosius. I figured that was the closest in name to any King I could find. Always wondered if there was a way to trace the lineage.
According to genealogists and historians we can descend the line of Theodosius until today.
Is Attila the Hun next?? 🙂
Good !! But Honorius was more fat in the most common representations
You forgot the most important part of Theodosios I life, making Orthodox Christianity☦️ the state religion of the Roman Empire in 380 A.D in the city of Thessaloniki.
What about Marcian?
I don’t think he has a statue
@@hiddenperson3696 Why not?
@@RaidenTheRipper950 Possibly because it was either was destroyed or never made.
Гонорий больше похож на отца - Феодосия Великого, чем Аркадий. Интересно.
Interesting, but it seems to me that Theodosius was blond and not brown. But very good video
Are you sure that the statue of "Honorius" isn't actually the statue of Valens..?
No we are not sure. Thanks for the observation!
It's been speculated to be either of them but I'm leaning towards it being Honorius until proven otherwise. Stylistically it shares a lot in common with the portrait of his brother Arcadius, both very abstract and geometric-looking even when compared with other sculptures from Late Antiquity that are a bit older like the famous Colossus of Constantine, which still had some features reminiscent of naturalistic classical realism remaining.
My dear Constantinou emperor Honorious It seems like your face
So you're saying that Honorious was very handsome 😃
@@panagiotisconstantinou Yes It Is , very beautiful Just like you
@@panagiotisconstantinou tell me Constantinou , and my face ? My face It seems to someone of the history famouse?
@@panagiotisconstantinou my granny 's mother She was called Teresa Valentino and I knew She belongs to the House of Valentino from Reggio Calabria, southern Italy but the First root of the House of Valentino Is from Constantinopolis, so I think my granny 's mother Teresa Valentino She descents from Valentinians Emperors, but also from Valentino Arshakuni of Armenia
@@panagiotisconstantinou could you sending your email address please , and It Is I can send others my pictures, e you can tell me more about my face
None of them made it to their 50s...
They have a long live considering the life expectancy of their time
@@rolloxra670 It's long, but keep in mind, almost half of all people died before their 1st birthday, and 35 was just the median age at death (including infant death, but not during huge plagues which luckily they weren't facing at their reign).
Theodosius II died at the age of 49, so pretty close.
... and we have been living in the East-West balance of power ever since, but this tale does not have a good ending (not in this age), because it is to be replaced by a One World Gov't, then a 10 region world gov't and out of those 10 kings or horns the "little horn" arises, boastful, stout and God-blaspheming. The world enters the 7 year tribulation after which will be the Kingdom of God on the earth centered in Jerusalem with Christ ruling a thousand years. If you happen to survive the tribulation, the sheep/goat judgment will determine if you enter the K'dom. Put your faith in Jesus Christ by grace alone without works of human righteousness and you will surely have eternal life.
Theodosius 1.. another christianized Agustus ... You cannot annihilate Caesar because he is a god... Christian Caesar now survives as Pope? Long live the caesaropapists as well as the the Pope.
Why everybody is so critical of Honorious? His reign was very interesting! I like him.
They were beautiful guys, but such awful haircuts! 😬
