    54:50- The Athenians won Pylos/Sphacteria. That was Sparta’s island of disaster. It opened the door for the Peace of Nicias. Astonishing that he got that wrong.

      Hi guys, I have an incredible invention related to the Ancient Greeks. The invention or discovery is that Ancient Greek language, had magical energy, rhythm and spirituality which allowed their incredible development over their two Amazing Centuries. To understand this please see the video czcams.com/video/yMYiJ4eC7l8/video.html or read the book "Evolutionary Alarm Sounds within Languages"

    Another brilliant lecture. Thank you Professor. I just wish we could have seen the images as he was describing them. The fleeting glimpse before, was too quick upon whichto reflect.

    Interesting stuff. I wonder if the term “myriad” was derived from the “10,000” immortals? Laurence

    Professor Paul Cartledge. Wonderful Presentation. It is astonishing, though, that British Historians haven't yet educated themselves to the precise pronunciation of Our Hellenic names. They shout out.... Greek.. this...Greece ..That . The Barbarian Romans coined the name "Greek...Greece" and, foolishly, History ran with it. WE DID'NT !! We Are.. "ELLENES".. not Greek....OUR MYTHICAL COUNTRY IS ..."ELLAS" ....not Greece ! How simple could this be for flamboyant English spoken today, raising their stature at the podium, honoring .."Who & What We Really Are" ! "Οι Αρχαίοι Τώρα Κωδικοί στην Έγκριση" "Our Ancients Now Nod in Approval"

      Hellenes are called Greeks in English and Hellas called Greece so these terms are used. You also change the original name, omitting the "h" sound which was present in the ancient pronounciation. Also, Grekos was mention already in Hesiod as one of the founders of the Greek race, Aristotle also mentions the name Grekoi which the Romans later adopted for the Hellenes. There is nothing bad with the term, it's a usual case of an exonym as opposed to an endonym.

    • @user-vs6eb2zw2s
      @user-vs6eb2zw2s Před 3 lety

      Actually there was a helots rebel against Sparta. Sparta even asked Athens to help to fight the rebels.

    54:29 But the Athenians won the battle of Pylos and Sfaktiria - they did not loose they won- the Spartans lost....so of course they would dedicate the temple of Athena Victory to this cause or?
