  • How Ramesses II also Looked in Real Life. I dive into his family tree and how he married his own daughters and had kids with them. This video continues after KING TUT's family tree video (below). I explain the Pharaohs of the 19th Dynasty in Ancient Egypt.
    More Family Trees and Recreations:
    King Tut: • King Tut's Inbred Fami...
    Cleopatra: • CLEOPATRA: Insanely In...
    Ramesses II was one of Egypt's longest reigning Pharaohs. He reigned for 67 years during the New Kingdom Period and died at the age of 90/91. During his reign he had over 100 children with many different women and some of them were even his own daughters. His reign though brought Egypt into the golden age, transitioning the Empire from a military powerhouse to also a cultural and diplomatic land. He built great monuments that still stand today.

    This was the way they THOUGHT they were keeping the bloodline "pure." To me, it was a way to keep power and wealth in the family. That's why, in my opinion, all the "royals" of Europe kept the money and power, too. They didn't want to share their wealth or power with people outside their families, so they were all related in some way. That continues into today, and why William marrying Kate was such a big deal! She wasn't "family." But she had lots of money! I guess that made it okay.

      I have my doubts about a marriage where the couple met and had a relationship, then split up for whatever reason. They then eventually got back together and as they say, the rest is history. The reasons why couples split up is a problem for me. You don’t split if you’re deliriously happy and hate being apart, do you? Are the problems still there? Who knows? Kate never looks particularly happy, but maybe that’s just the way she is. I’m English so I see a lot of them in the news.

      @vintagegal541 Před 2 lety +34

      I agree with you. Keep the money and power within the family. I just watched a documentary on TubiTV about Cleopatra VII, THE Cleopatra. She was descended from one of Alexander the Greats Greek general's, Ptolemy. Alexander gave Ptolemy Egypt after it was conquered by him. The Greeks adopted the ancient Egyptian custom of incestuous marriages. Can't forget the most notorious European family to do this, the Habsburgs. Insanity and defects ran in that family. Mortal Faces did a great video on Marie Antoinette and her Habsburgs twisted family tree. I also saw a video, can't remember on who's channel, but William and Catherine are distantly related. I made a comment about being surprised about that and someone replied to me that most people in England are descended from some royal personage or another. Who knew?

      Yes you are right. Pharoahs were considered gods so the tradition of brother-sister marriage, was
      based on Isis and Osiris, who the were considered the first rulers of Egypt. The crown of Isis was the throne, so descent was via the female line. Hence the practice of Pharoahs marrying sisters and daughters was to keep control of the power in the family.

To put into modern US terms...it would be like 2022 would still have the technology and clothing from 1770s... nothing changed only expansion and building more. 😵 We are lucky that from 1900s into 2020s, which is 120 + years, we went from horses to space ships, letter carriers to internet, etc. Ancient Egyptians had 500 years between first and last kingdoms and yet their tech, clothing and practices never changed. 🤷 You think within just 100 years they figured out electricity and other advanced technology. One thing they were superior... they don't make a big deal over skin color as all of these Ancient Egyptian based videos always seem to attract stupid people starting race wars within the comment section about what the Ancient Egyptians looked like... as if the Ancient Egyptians cared about superfluous things like the color and shade of their skins.

      The Egyptians had at least one red headed god, Sett, and the Greeks and Romans had red headed gods and demi gods, including Ares, Athena, Aphrodite, Hercules and Achiles. Alexander the great was also a red head although it is argued he was blonde or strawberry blonde. Theres biblical references too, from the old testament, Adam and eve, Esau, king David, cananites etc. Even in more recent times the quran describes Muhammad as having skin as pale as alabaster and a red beard.

      They probably weren’t taught the notion that incest was wrong. They were taught that the Gods married their own children/siblings and as personifications of gods themselves, it’s only right to follow their footsteps. Also Ramseys II had the biggest harem and children population so I bet most of his children felt like a stranger. The notion of how wrong incest is didn’t come until very modern times… hell, even the European royalties married their first cousins for a while.

      You are imposing pretty recent moral concerns on an ancient civilisation. As mentioned in another comment: There was only a matrilineal ascension to the throne. This of course led to the horrible preference for 1st grade female relatives as wives (only among royals). The first royal wife (the title queen did not exist) was the land, pharaoh ruled the land. Nonetheless, there were a few female pharaohs. The modern aversion against women in power simply did not exist, but you want to victimise women who basically had more rights, power & freedom than women do today - not only upper class women: Under native rule, women could run their own businesses, have their own properties. Virginity was not a hype. Weddings were not so super important rather a formal affair. There was an option for a temporary marriage. Women could get divorced any time and would keep their property. Women had access to all kinds of careers though unusual there were even a few female scribes - the and doctors- unusual because the eduction took decades … in addition, there were no “harems” but chenerets - the royal house of women - women were not locked up. and had lovers The performing arts were taught in the cheneret. Most of the food and cosmetics required at the court was provided by the cheneret. Rape was a crime throughout the milennia! Women’s rights in our “modern” Western societies are a new & still quite dysfunctional phenomena when compared to Egypt …to cut a long story short: Do your own research -

    Just a question tho, how would you know if they are married and have children together? Cause in many cultures and kingdoms, Kings and Queens can be individual posts that does not necessary have to have any links with one another. For instance, in the South Indian Kingdom of Travancore, there will usually be one King (Maharaja) and two Queens (Maharani), the the Maharanis would usually be the Kings mother or sister. But they are not married to each other. In fact before British colonisation, the Maharaja and Maharanis would each have free relationship with other people which are not recorded. The King and Queens are merely political offices which serve a political and religious function. Children born from the Maharanis will simply seen as the King's children (heirs) as per the traditional of matrilineal family structures.
    Why wouldn't it be the case here? The Queen is merely a political position the father decided to instil on his daughters who do not want to be married and they had children to other men but their children are considered the children of their father. (In many cultures, like ancient Greece, Rome, Japan and China, it is completely normal for fathers who do not have a son to adopt the son of his daughter as his legal son). Especially since Egyptian had a lot of myths of the Queens being visited by gods and got pregnant by other people and the next Pharoh is not the biological son of the previous pharoh. It can be seen that Egyptian royal family can be somewhat matrilineal as well in this regards.
    You don't have to be married to have children you know. This is a very patriarchal and patrilineal read into history which see civilisation with the lens of a patriarchal family model. There are strong evidence that many native Egyptian society is deeply matrilineal and matriarchal so why wouldn't similar matrilineal family structure apply as well? For example the story of Moses, despite Moses being a child without any origins, he was readily accepted as a Pharaoh's son simply because he was adopted as the son of the Pharaoh's daughter. This is very similar to many matrilineal societies where children of the women of the household regardless of their biological fathers would be considered the children of the patriarch as per the Matrilineal Kingdom of Travancore and many other Matrilineal societies.

      Moses does indeed have lineage! He was a Hebrew/ Israelite. His parents are named, he has an older brother, Aaron, and older sister, Miriam. It was Miriam who kept watch over the infant Moses when his mother Jochebed hid him amongst the bullrushes, at which point Pharaoh's daughter saved him, recognised that he was a Hebrew child, gave him back to his mother to nurse and raise, and when he was of an age, he was taken to the palace to become 'son' of Pharaoh's daughter. He was then trained in all the ways of Egypt. He absolutely knew his heritage. It is said that he became one of Egypt's best army generals.

Their gods too married with siblings and quite possibly other close relatives sort of a "On Earth as it is in Heaven" concept. The unfortune downfalls of 'mortals' engaging in such a tradition were blood disorders, physical and mental deformities even unintended genetic sterilization do to so much inbreeding. Nefertiti had 6 daughters with Akhenaten, 2 or 3 he married in hopes of producing an heir. Cleopatra was indeed not a native Egyptian but that didn't stop her family from continuing the customs of natives, strongly put her entire family line of rule consists of 3 centuries drowned in incestuous/inbred behavior and bloodshed.
