- In this episode we dive into the history of Megiddo which is a site that has seen the rise and fall of at least twenty cities. From the Neolithic to its final decline and depopulation we explore the history, archaeological discoveries and conflicts that have taken place there.
We watch as Dr. Cline guides us through the clenched hands that have pushed and pulled for control of this location from the Canaanites to the Egyptians, from the Israelite's to the Greeks and the Romans and even into the modern world as the British and Ottoman Empire fought to control it.
This site and its strategic placement has seen the rise and fall of Empires throughout history and it truly has been "Armageddon" for so many peoples.
And as we stand on this Armageddon this valley of birth and death of so many empirical entities, we have to ask ourselves what are we standing on? And are the Battles for Megiddo truly over?

This was my Sunday morning schooling. Thanks Nick. It's always good to hear your voice - i can't believe what i just learned from this.. I never heard of Megiddo. Not to mention the root of Armageddon. I looked up the word Armageddon and not one dictionary included the root that Dr. Cline presented.
@@dukecity7688 your comment means the world to me! Thank you for watching!
I can't believe i just came upon this. Nick is gone. So sad. Three years ago i found this site and it has changed my life. It introduced me to the Bronze Age. I had no idea how much fun this can be. He introduced me to Dr. Cline and that led me to check out the OI. RIP Nick
We miss you Nick!!
Thank you Dr. Cline for doing this.
As always, a great pleasure to hear from Professor Cline - thank you! Greetings from Greece!
How could I have missed this video? Dr. Cline and Nick, wonderful! Making a movie or mini-series about the digs at Megiddo is a great idea, look at the success of the recent movie The Dig (at Sutton Hoo), people would love it.
Cline really is the best, great in the field, great in his presentations. I love listening to him.
This video end up proving why we should read history. Mind-blowing.
Always a pleasure to hear Dr. Cline; such a nice guy!
Thank you Dr. Cline! Thank you, Nick! Presentations by experts are wonderful!
beautiful! 2 of my favorite speakers at once! what dr cline said at the end about you is VERY true. you do a great service to us peons! thank you.
Colin Wright my heart felt this comment. Thank you! People like you are why I do what I do!

I could listen to him 5-6 hour's. He knows what he is talking about.
Very interesting. Thank you. :)
Three viewers didn't expect the pharaoh's army from the middle pass.
LOL Good one. Upset "believers" I guess.
They have doubled their forces - giving ... 6.
No. Probably they hated the audio quality..anyway, now YT decided not to show the down votes. Happy nation .
Very interesting, great. 👍
he's a good writer
Excellent.
I went to har meggido because I have friends living close. It is really small, but quite beautiful and peaceful site
Beautiful, how God knits people together with events and then coming forth the final battle of Megiddo not in the distant future.
My neighbours' father (last name Lamon) was one of the first excavators at Megiddo. He still has some of his fathers materials and the story of his fathers life is very interesting. Glad I can pass this on.
And speaking of docudramas, my friend Mark. Can tell you a few stories as well.
Can you put me in touch with him? Seriously. I’ve been trying to find Lamon’s descendants without any luck. He’s a major player in my book, but there’s lots more I’d like to ask him about.
@@digkabri do you have an email address I can forward. The family history is incredible. You probably could not find them because he ended up doing geological survey in Central Americal for the oil and gas sector during World War II and then moving to Canada.
I had connected him with someone at the Megiddo project over a year ago but Im not sure how far that went. I am an archaeologist myself and that is how we became friends.
maya george The best email is ehcline@gwu.edu or ehcline@gmail.com. I did track him as far as Canada (and that’s in the book), but had no luck contacting any descendants; sent some emails out, but no replies. Not sure who he contacted at Megiddo, but nobody passed him on to me, unfortunately. Anyway, he will like the book as is, but perhaps some of the materials that he has will be able to make it into a revised paperback version, if he is willing...Cheers and thanks in advance. P.S. I presume you study the Maya, to judge from your user name...?
That was really awesome. Any possibility you can get him talking about his 1177 B.C book and comparing it to today?
Just found my next book thank you!
Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks kindly for sharing this, it's fascinating. Only tiny critique id give is to begin with geographic location first.(unless i missed it)
I stood on the ruins of Megiddo in late 1979. No one was there. It was a beautiful view but the excavations, at that time, were hobbled by my ignorance… therefore, at a young age- I had some appreciation but I have so much more now!
I would love to own an I Survived Armageddon t shirt.
Fascinating! Thanks. Armageddon event; 'Been & Gone' theory! I received sensitive information in Egypt & went to London Commonwealth Office (LCO) in July 1997. I was thanked & appointed to a Commonwealth project; 'To facilitate Israel joining the Commonwealth, as planned in 1919'.
'To facilitate Israel's entry into Commonwealth'. I asked WHY? LCO replied that during World War 1 (WW1), 19-25 September 1918, this battle of Megiddo (Armageddon) was fought. So, LCO decided to establish Israel after WW1 had to establish Israel. The LCO bible interpretation was 1] Armageddon, 2] Messiah, 3] Israel established & 4] Israel to be 'A light unto the Nations'.
In 1918, LCO decided that time for 4] had arrived. LCO established Trans-Jordan as Palestine (89%) in 1921. Israel would be on Cis-Jordan (21%). BUT in 1922 the League of Nations took over and did not establish Israel as planned.
So, LCO decided that Armageddon was fought over 100 years ago & that perhaps the Messiah had also ''Been & Gone''. Thus, that Trans-Jordan would be the Palestinian state and Israel (Light to Nations) would be all of Cis-Jordan.
Nobody can prove LCO wrong. League of Nations (LON) tried. But LON failed. Time for Archaeology to solve ''The Riddle of the Sands''🖖💯🖖
