Video info:
On our second stop on our tour of the historical and archaeological sites of Turkey we visit the ancient necropolis of Sogmatar. With a history dating back several thousand years, this ancient archaeological site has seen the occupations of the Romans, Mesopotamians and, as we will see from its unexplored hill structure in the center, potentially civilizations that date back much, much further.
Together we will dive into long lost burial chambers, discover ancient inscriptions in languages lost to time and immerse ourselves in the mystery of Sogmatar.
There's some real "Steve Irwin of archaeology" energy every time Milo gleefully flings himself into another tomb hole.
YES!!! Perfect description! All we need now is a "Crikey! There's a dark, mysterious, probably dangerous hole! We need to go in there!"
so what you're saying is we need a Robert Irwin / Milo Rossi crossover?
Yeah, it’s adorable, seeing how excited he gets that there’s ancient history everywhere. Europeans and Northern Africans are like “What? Oh yeah, 3000 year old ruins, big deal, I found some in my back garden yesterday.”
@@BoarhideGaming Turkish and middle easterners are like "oh, that 10000 year old fertility goddess sculpture? Must've found probably three in the past month. They're right there in the shelf with the clay tablets."
Indiana jones ?

Milo is the only one who can squeeze into a small pitch black hole, proclaim it to be a tomb, speculate he could be surrounded by skeletons, NOT be terrified, but laugh about it. A+
I'm Turkish and I forget some times how alien but beautiful some parts of Turkey are. The barren plains contrasting against the bright green grass and the beautiful light blue sky tinged with orange at the horizon.. man that looks straight out of a fantasy book
Lots of sci fi stuff is shot in locations like this. The first Star Wars movie shot heavily in Tunisia, with some of the buildings featured being ancient and some of them built for the film. The scenes on Ach-To in the new Star Wars trilogy were shot at a site called Skellig Michael in Ireland, which is a UNESCO Heritage site believed to be built by Augustinian monks some 1,000-1,600 years ago (which is brand new compared to this site). And then the Third Indiana Jones movie used some real locations, most notably Petra in South Jordan as the "Temple of the Grail".
Sadly, some of the greatest sites in your country are intentionally left alone. The best example is Ani and its surroundings. I remembered seeing a video of your president literally calling it cursed land not worth dealing with once and it broke my heart. It broke my heart because a place that my people considered the holiest of holies is now considered cursed land essentially left to rot and deteriorate to the elements.
@@harouttorkomian5897 I don't know where you saw Erdogan say such a thing neighbor but I'm pretty sure you might have watched a fake translation. I'm not a big fan of Erdogan but that's not really something he'd say, (tried googling it found nothing) he had a bunch of Armenian sites renovated and rebuilt over the past few years. (Also Syriac, the Bulgarian Church etc etc). He also had an Armenian advisor for a while early on in his career and had / has a bunch of Armenian origin MP's in his party.
I'm not gonna pretend like we've been perfect custodians at all times since unfortunately few people will prioritize history or nature etc vs progress. But that's the unfortunate truth for many ancient and medieval etc buildings in the entire world. The countless Ottoman mosques etc are also no longer standing in Armenia for example, some being used to house animals like cattle and pigs. Many of the ancient temples and structures in Turkey for example are themselves built with stones of monuments created by even more ancient civilizations.
But that's neither here nor there, you're always welcome to visit Turkey and check out ancient sites, Armenian churches etc for yourself. There is also a relatively large Armenian minority that have their own churches, news papers and schools etc in Istanbul and Izmir.
Anyway, I'm hopeful in fact pretty certain our relations will soon normalize and over time we might even become partners in the region no matter how far fetched that might sound right now. All the best !
@@harouttorkomian5897sorry bud, completely nonsense. We have tens of thousands of archeological sites and a limited budget. All will have their history uncovered in time. They’re not going anywhere anyhow.
I understand! I grew up in Arizona, and I though stuff like the Grand Canyon, Meteor Crater, painted desert etc... were just ordinary. It wasn't until later in life that I realized what a magical and extraordinary place I lived

Tbh the idea of an ancient children's toy makes me almost cry. Kid may have had a whole life - lived and died - and all we can picture is them as a child with a toy. We as people really have just been out here living the whole time.
its an incredible feeling
I remember when I still had emotions. I miss it sometimes ❤
What's even more mind boggling is those very children could be our ancestors
people are people and we always will be

In case anyone happens to not know what Milo means by the "chalcolithic", he's talking about the earliest days of metalurgy, before the development of bronze alloys. Copper is relatively abundant and easy to work, but also kind of useless compared to bronze or iron for making robust tools - or rather, it's significantly eclipsed in many ways by generally pre-existing technologies of stonework and pottery. It still has specialized uses both as decoration and in crafting, though. Because of this, especially in what would become the Egypto-Sumerian cultural sphere (and I believe in China, but don't quote me on that), we tend to see copper gradually make its way into the tool base of a culture before they gain access to the much rarer tin, at which point the greater utility of bronze and the need for substantial trade networks to acquire it tends to drive a bit of a technological explosion.
All of which is to say: the "chalcolithic" is that tale end of the stone age where copper is starting to creep into the economy but you don't yet have major bronze industries up and running.
Thanks. I was curious since I hadn’t heard the term before.
Very helpful thank you
It's funny to think that we've more or less returned to copper since it forms the basis of our electrical grids and machines and therefore our entire civilization.
Thank, that's really interesting
Just to elaborate, "chalcolithic" is derived from the Greek words "chalcos" meaning "copper" and "lithos" meaning "stone".
This man is becoming Indiana Jones, if Indiana Jones was actually a good archeologist.
Hm.. he has yet to raid some ancient site just to put the shinies 'IN A MUSEUM!! (where they allegedly belong)...
Someone above called him the Steve Irwin of Archeology - and I am for one, think that fits better. Just considering the curiosity, energy and amazement :D
@@robertnett9793 Fair.
@@robertnett9793 now what'd be REALLY cool was if he took them _from_ the museum, and put them back where they belong :D
@@idontwantahandlethough Hehe. I can see the movie.
Opening scene: A museum at night. long halls with dinsaur skeletons (so the audience knows, it's a museum, duh!), halls with paintings (because there is no difference between nature and art museums in Hollywood).
Some old night guard taking their patrol whistling
And then - one room, with the tell tale red lasers everywhere.
From the shadows a figure in black ninja gear appears...
And after an elegant scene of dancing between the conveniently spaced lasers, the obligatory round glass cutting and retrieving of the artifact, a frenzy chase scene, which the cat burglar narrowly escapes.
Ending in some dark back alley, the masked burglar reviels himself to be our man Milo, glancing at the stolen artifact softly.
"You belong into a dig site in Mesopotamia!"
@@robertnett9793 hahaha that was perfect. Maybe at the end of the movie, he can replace a bag of sand with a golden idol very carefully so the traps don't trigger 😂
Milo, not only did you get me to love archaeology, but make my future career be a professor in archaeology. So thank you.
You've gotta be a leader in the field. Keep it close to your heart like milo and you should do fine. My grandad was a chem professor and the politics were the hardest part to deal with he said.
If you are going to build structures for stargazing, this is a pretty damn good location. No mountains to obstruct, most of the hills look to be somewhat equal heights. If I was going to come up with a large stargazing area, it'd look a lot like this.
And considering the area was very fertile, it makes double sense, as stargazing was the earliest (and for quite a while afterwards) way to tell seasons and times to sow and harvest... So yeah. Have your settlement down in the green, have somebody to keep an eye to the sky, so you don't miss important dates - boom: civilisation :D
My #1 favorite thing about Milo is his ability to humanize history. Humans have been humans for millions of years. We got taller and created language, tools, and technology. But a dad walking around today with his daughter on his shoulders is just like a dad 10,000 years ago. A person filling an ancient stone water trough is just like the one centuries ago who carved it for that same use. If Milo ever gets a proper show that respects his vision and goals, I hope it's called something like "Humanizing History." That toy chariot and Milo's care for it is my favorite moment in the whole video, followed shortly by seeing Milo laughing like a kid at getting to delve into the burial shelf chambers.
Damn I was hoping for some milo to calm down and then go to bed having learned more than in my entire school life. Milo is just the best.
He is able to do in 15 mins what a teacher does in a month of class room.
@@williampisano7573that’s largely because milo is trying to teach 1 specific thing, and you chose to be here out of interest. School covers loads in little detail and you have to be there neither of which is conducive to learning but also by far the best way of doing mass education. I personally learned a lot more after leaving school than I did at it. But I also chose to learn what I did.
@@troystaunton254 that can certainly be true, but as a teacher, I can say that there are a lot of factors. For example, I taught my specific subject at both the K-12 and university level. Even when my K-12 class was an elective, I had to spend a lot of class time on 'classroom management' and testing that seriously limited what I had time to cover. At the university level, we did cover the subject in similar detail and pacing as Milo. He is an excellent teacher and, already knowing most of what he covers, I can with certainty say that his skills foster retention and a desire to learn more.
@@troystaunton254 What the state mandates be taught can also be, quite honestly, really damn boring and it's hard to make the material interesting, however you do it. ;) I know (too well) that, sometimes, gaining knowledge means hanging in there while you're bored out of your skull, but state education departments seem bent on making things boring when they don't need to be, know what I mean?
@@hoppytoad79 as sir Humphrey Appleby once said. Government departments are the grave site of the areas they govern. The departments of education is the grave of education. Which is sad. But as I also say, it’s the best general education type in history. I once saw a thing showing today vs 100 years ago, the premise was horse and cart then. Now a car. A candle then now a light bulb. A ballon then now a plane. A class room then. Same picture for now, and as I said given widespread education was only introduced 100-150 years ago. What they think they’re saying is schools are out of date. What I saw was with that school system we went from horse and cart to car. We went from balloons to planes. Candles to electric light. If that’s not a clear enough example of school works I don’t know what is.
I love this kid so much. 9 have been watching him for about 3 years now, and he reminds me of my so in so many, many ways. Unfortunately my son is no longer in my life, but Milo is a wonderful reminder of how much Michael loved geology, geography, paleontology, archaeology and history in general. Milo you really have touched my heart in more ways then you could ever know. Thank you so much.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Milo has immense quality in his videos i thank him and his team for letting us stay educated and happy ❤
I love how you can hear just how ecstatic Milo is from how fast he's talking.
Honestly, as a physics graduate I love learning about what you have to teach and I’m so glad that you’re good at making your field so accessible
Also I’m definitely buying the book because I trust your knowledge and ability to make it interesting
Funny, I'm a history graduate but love watching chemistry/physics content that I have the barest understanding of....
Explosions and fire channel, I'm looking at you
I love milo's videos because when he does things that other documentarians would do, like looking in awe at a carving on the wall, its so clearly not about appearance. His love for this just oozes from every pixel.
Milo I love your content dude, you’ve honestly reignited a flame and love for archeology that I had forgotten, ever since I was very young I’ve loved the idea of paleontology but now through your content I’ve found that archeology is something I really enjoy learning about. And hopefully it’s something I will be able to pursue in the future
Your enthusiasm is SO infectious. You reignite the interest in archeology and history that I’ve always had but sort of forgot about because life got in the way. So thank you!
It's like he's powered by archeology...
His speech speeds up, his hands start expressing and I'm pretty sure you can hear his brain kick into high gear.
Never change Milo, never change
I love how book sales Milo pauses to mind his language but tomb raider Milo drops like 5 f-bombs in 1 minute.
The production value went through the roof holy crap! It makes me so happy to see you able to go in the field. It's so cool that you know SO MUCH about these sites that you can just go there and nerd out and we all get to learn. Thank you Miles. You are a blessing.
Milo, you're a f'king legend dude. Starting from a guy with attitude doing debunking tiktoks (sorry I'm too old for that tiktok shit), the move to youtube (where I found you) has been awesome. I do enjoy your debunking videos & learning some while being entertained, I hope they keep coming. But the foray into longer content & bringing us your passion & knowledge has really stepped up a few notches. Great work by the team all around. I do also like Brad's channel "Artifactually Speaking" (found thanks to you), and I love that you're doing what he is by teaching us & entertaining us, but in your own style. Looking forward to everything you bring us in the future, because I've loved everything so far & somehow it just gets better. Now if only netflix would give you a series instead of pushing fake BS like Hancock's excrement filled pseudoscience "documentary".
Archeology is humbling, and I find myself prone to parasocial thoughts every time I engage with it slightly. Holding something that someone long-deceased spent their waking hours creating, using or playing with is like a gateway through time to the life, thoughts, frustrations, passions and worries of another human being. The artifacts we uncover might not even have belonged to a single person, but might have been heirlooms passed down through generations with all of the drama, greed and jealousy that those moments might have entailed.
The realization that so many real, living beings with their own lives, from childhood till old age and death, came before us, always shakes me to the core. Humans are so much more than our petty present-day squabbles.
Milo is one of the few people you may meet/ see that pursued their dream with lots of effort and get to do their dream job. Big props to you my guy
Thanks for the peek into the past. Your delight in discovery is engaging and infectious. Thank you for sharing.
The replacement for the Discovery: Civilization channel we all needed! Keep it up man - love watching this channel grow!
It was so cute seeing Milo with the kids at the very end!
When I deployed to Iraq I went to the Ziggurat Of Ur and visited the surrounding tombs. Its like time traveling being in a place so old.
The more I learn about Turkey from your videos the more I want to visit it and see everything myself and be humbled by having such historically rich things at my fingertips and feet.
One of my dreams is to explore the ruins of the Chachapoyan peoples in Peru. It would be amazing if you were to do an exposè and mini docuseries on the different Peruvian ruins and archeological sites besides the big ones.
Turkey is just chuckful of history. Having been an important crossroads for millennia that's been occupied by countless cultures basically no matter where you look there'll be something breathtaking. From Hittite cities to Roman forts and Ottoman Mosques you'll never find yourself running out of things to see. And all of them have a deep and exciting history, and most of it honestly sounds more fantastic than fiction.
Oh boy, I'm heavily claustrophobic, watching Milo get into that tiny burial chamber hole gave me literal angst and my heart rate accelerated 🥴💀 I really love learning about archaeology but I'd die the second someone asks me to enter through a tiny hole into a small closed space. Hell naw 💀
All I could think was “Spiders. Spiders. Spiders. Nope.”
@@greablood1072 Yeah, I hadn't thought about that but new nightmare material unlocked 🥴
@@greablood1072 As an arachnophobe, same. I wasn't too worried about the cramped space, moreso the eightlegged devils on the ceiling. 💀
Oh, this was such an amazing video! And that little toy is so very cool - such a human touch! Thousands of years of history, and the little toy is the most compelling of the bunch, at least to this momma's heart. 😊
Thanks, Milo, for all you do!
❤❤
Seeing how quickly your production value has skyrocketed is just incredible to me, and I'm really glad to see it.
Maybe in future you could include the years in which certain ages took place (ie the bronze age or the copper age). Just makes it a bit more accessible for noobs like me! Great work so far, big fan of your videos!
There wasn't really a copper age. Copper is very soft, which means it's easy to work with but makes sort of crumby tools. Thus, you add tin to it to make bronze, which is much more durable. Some people call the Chalcolithic, which Milo mentioned, the "copper age", but copper tools were never as widespread as bronze and later iron. Dates can be hard to nail down too, as different cultures were using different tools in different time periods, but a general idea is
STONE AGE: 3.4 million years ago to 6,000 years ago, usually subdivided into the Paleolithic (~3.4mya-12kya), Mesolithic (~12kya-10kya), and Neolithic (~10kya-4,000 ya). Think early hunter-gatherers, Gobekli Tepi, and Stonehenge respectively in terms of age.
CHALCOLITHIC PERIOD: This is your "copper age". Unlike with the Bronze Age Collapse, the Fall of Rome, or the beginning of European Imperialism, you don't get a nice clean date to divide the Stone Age and the Bronze Age. During the transitional period between the two (6,000ya-4,000ya), you saw various cultures start experimenting with metallurgy. This is also when a lot of cultures made a general shift from hunter-gatherer nomad lifestyles to pastoral farming and herding lifestyles, and around the time cities start to become more common (though the earliest cities were already thousands of years old by now). Think very early Jericho, the earliest writings of what would become the Old Testament/Torah, and pre-pyramids Egypt.
BRONZE AGE: The Bronze Age starts with the earliest metallurgy, which as I mentioned was mostly bronze based, around 2,000 BCE or ~4,000ya. Some people date it's beginning all the way back to 3,300 BCE, but it's pretty unanimously agreed that it ended during the Bronze Age Collapse, which Milo has a good video on. This lead into the Greek Dark Ages, the period of civil war that gave birth to the Greeks, and the beginning of the Iron Age. Think Babylonians, early Bible times, much of Egypt, and Crete.
IRON AGE: The Iron Age sort of begins around the time when Greece came to power, around 800 or 700 BCE (~2800-2700 years ago). The Iron Age covers Ptolemic Egypt, the Greek and Roman Civilizations, and much of what we would consider early European History with the Gauls and Franks. The Iron Age is typically regarded as ending during the Medieval Period, with many people giving the Fall of Rome in 476 CE as an exact date for it's end.
MEDIEVAL PERIOD: The Medieval Period spans about eight hundred years give or take from the Fall of Rome in 476 to the Renaissance. For Medieval, you already know that you're thinking knights, castles, and crusades. It's typically considered to end around 1400 or 1450 CE with the Renaissance and the beginning of the Age of Discovery with the rise of the British and Spanish Empires.
AGE OF DISCOVERY: A more apt term I've heard thrown around for the Age of Discovery is the Age of Imperialism, as it was largely marked by the English, Dutch, Spanish, and French Empires claiming massive swathes of the world for themselves. It starts with a renewed interest in exploration and expanding Imperial borders in around 1450, and is considered to end with the beginning of the Revolutionary Period in 1776, with the American Revolution. For the Age of Discovery, think Christopher Columbus, Cortez, the Pilgrims, Magellan, and European expansion into Africa and the Middle East.
REVOLUTIONARY PERIOD: More than just the American Revolution, the Revolutionary Period was sort of a worldwide pushback to the Age of Imperialism as previously colonized locations around the world revolted. The French Revolution also saw an end to the French Empire, as did war throughout Europe. The Revolutionary Period goes from about the 1770s well into the 1880s or so. After the 1880s, you start to specify much more accurately because we're talking about the past 150 years or so at that point. You might refer to something as "Civil War Era" in the US, or "World War I Era" or "dating back to the Famine of 1883-1886". I think most people would refer to everything past that as sort of "modern period".
Hope this helped at the very least give you a broad idea of what time periods people are talking about and a good little rundown of what terms to Google if nothing else.
@@hazelbaumgartner9706 you are a star!

Thank you, Milo. You’re enthusiasm and love for history is wonderfully evident in your videos. It’s great to watch your channel grow and to see these amazing places through your perspective!
Your enthusiasm is so infectious and endearing, I really hope people watching your channel also pick up a love for history
i probably thought about archeology twice in my life but i seriously love this channel and cant stop bingewatching much love
Just saw the short. Man your the indiana Jones we needed back in the day. It belongs to the people that live there ❤
Lordy, I wasn't even aware of this incredible place. The history just strewn about is mind boggling. When you went into the first burial cavern I thought it might even be fairly modern - then Roman - but you said it was four thousand years old. My goodness! And there are 75 of them. Oh, how I wish they were doing the same sort of digging there as they are at those other sites.
Yee! Excited about the new content. Keep it up Milo!!
I reflect your excitement! It's an awe-inspiring experience to see these sites that the media I grew up watching never touched on. I'm so grateful that you're doing this series, bringing light to a corner that's all too easy for conspiracies to be drawn from. And I love that you're doing it your way.
As a kid I was really into archeology and learning about people who came before us. Your videos fill me with feelings of wonder and amazement I felt back then
Keep on being awesome Milo!
Absalutlely stunning series so far! It’s great to see a refreshed, modern and grounded look at the history of humanity. I can’t wait for more episodes!
Production value through the roof. Great video from Milo and his team👍
I'm so glad that you are actually able to go to these sites. I hope you continue to travel around visiting cool ancient sites like this!
It's pronounced /soh-matar/. In Turkish, the ğ is silent, acting as an unvoiced stop between segmentals. It also tends to put the stress on the previous syllable.
Thank you! It's impossible (for some of us) to learn all the proper pronunciation, the language is beautiful.
Dude this video was awesome!!!! So happy I could be here for the premiere. I can’t wait for whatever next adventure you embark on!
I hope you make more content like this in the future. Its reminiscent of the original History Channel that I used to love as a kid.
Milo is like that kid who finally gets mcnuggets after asking his parents for a week 😂 absolutely love it
Love you Milo, look forward to seeing more incredible tomb raids
Fascinating video Milo! Your enthusiasm for your field is contagious and you always post such interesting videos! I love the little chariot toy that was found.. proves that kids have always loved those kinds of toys 😊 I’m really looking forward to watching your next video. Thank you for bringing us with you.. so interesting! 😊❤
I wonder if there were ever little people who rode in it!
Man I'm so happy for you, I've watched you come so far over the years. Thank you.
I only found this channel like a week ago now, and it's almost immediately become one of my favorite things on the internet
He sounded absolutely giddy inside that first tomb, that was adorable!
I'm SO glad I found this channel! In one simple comment, Milo has confirmed that he's my kind of archaeological weirdo - "There's a hole in the ground, so obviously we need to go into it!"
You manage to find places I've never heard of! How refreshing! I enjoyed this video very much.
I have absolutely no idea about this topic, but it's the perfect adhd background podcast.
Only problem might be that I'm listening too much for it to be in the _background_
"He thought the view was beautiful, but I thought he was more beautiful" -likely Henry as the headscarf flows gently in the wind behind Milo
All jokes aside, this series is spectacular. Thank you so much Milo + team!
This is all incredibly amazing. I'm so happy to see and learn about places I could only dream of visiting.
Just a little constructive criticism - the linear graphic that moves vertically is a little fast. Kind of makes me feel sick/dizzy, and I have to pause to see what dates are going by.
Thanks so much for your hard work and enthusiasm!
making the best entertaining, educational, PROFESSIONAL content on all of YT. Going to these places in person and giving us a very intimate tour---- i can't give this enough compliments.
Love the format of these videos.
So professional. Really looking forward to the rest of the tour
I always get so excited to see your videos talking about the history of the world and its amazing to see how much your videos have improved over the year. As someone with poor hearing I was glad that you added captions for when the wind was distorting your voice outside, have you ever considered adding full captioning for your videos instead of just the auto generated ones?
Watching Milo's videos always makes me wish that I had managed to get my degree in archeology.
Production quality on this one iw amazing. Cheers and keep up the good work
love the drone shots...
currently rewatching this entire series, this is honestly my favorite episode.
Im going to have to bank this one until tomorrow 😢 This series is so brilliant and we’ll researched
Was i the onLy one that was slightly concerned about milo disturbing a burial sight and taking a picture in a grave shelf?..😅
Just discovered you and I've been binge watching your stuff. You are absolutely fabulous and just keep going
Amazing work! Can't wait for the upcoming episode.
It’s so cool seeing these videos like a month after the trip! I get to relive the whole thing over again and try to spot everyone in the group in the video 😂
Super fascinating. Now I need to go learn more about this place I've never heard of!
Since I was a kid, I fucking loved exploring old buildings and stuff, haven't found an ancient tomb yet but I'll keep yall updated on that.
This channel is becoming my favorite
Truly fascinating, this area is amazing!
I'm hyped for this, last video was awesome, almost planned a trip to turkey.
I am so glad I found this channel, great work pal!
As someone with a lifelong interest in archaeology, I am loving your videos from Türkiye... it's always been one of my dream archaeological destinations.
Why doesn’t Milo have a Netflix gig yet?
I am not against him having a Net fix "gig" I watch and follow this chanel because I do like what he does... So don't take this the wrong way, he doesn't have a "gig" on Net flix because he is a hard sale, he's a little too fast and a little too immature. Case in point, rolling around and squealing on the grave slabs, zero respect for what it was and what others experienced there for centuries.
@@brandonwilson5311 There are no bodies, there, humans have been defacing and fucking with these areas for tens of thousands of years. It is entirely natural, he's not destroying anything, or defacing anything, not disrespectful at all whatsoever.
Honestly, I think he hasn't been approached because he's way too ready to call bullshit on the aliens and demon ghost crowd. The big studios aren't interested if the host is going to flat out tell 3/4 of their viewers they're being dumb and gullible.
Probably the 'best' archeology on TV right now is Josh Gates, and while he does his best to tell a straight story, they keep pushing him into contact with the lunatic fringe for the ratings, and even if you can tell he doesn't agree with them, he'll never tell them they're wrong.
@@rdizzy1 you are a very shallow and uninformed individual with no spiritual soul. "No Bodies?" Wow... I don't even think you understand how that style of tombs were even used back in their day. You my friend, are "the useful idiot" we have been warned about.
The Kyle Hill of archaeology 😅❤ really loving this series!
Sudden urge to have them collab.
Milo, I've just discovered your channel tonight and have been binge watching all of your videos. Your joy and happiness as you're presenting is absolutely infectious in the best way. You remind me a lot of Josh Gates and Steve Irwin. Definitely earned a subscription from me and I eagerly look forward to seeing all, if not most of your videos.
I just pre-ordered your book. I'm a big fan and hope you continue everything that you're doing. More than happy to support and the book seems like it will be interesting as well. Can't wait
Dude really went to Moses well for us all to see. And it's got a fig tree. ❤
Not me waiting a mega minute for a miniminuteman video
Love the series Milo ! Your enthusiasm doing something that you love is very inspiring ! I was wondering if you had any favourite documentaries to recommend?
The juxtaposition between the ancient structures and the cars, tarps, and whatnot is both jarring and amazing.
Take a drink every time Milo says, "time immemorial"! 😄🍺🥂🍸🍷🍾
This is so much fun. It's going to be a shame when Milo's prefrontal cortex finishes development and we lose him to meticulous, long term digs and academia.
WOW! What a site! The landscape, the tombs, Roman architecture, continuous habitation... Stunning!
I watch archeological tv shows and documentaries all the time, and this show is ENTIRELY on par with those, and this was done with a small team and is available FOR FREE. I'm honestly floored. This is an amazing series and I dearly hope Milo has the opportunity to present us with more series like this in the future.
Me seeing a new video and getting excited, it’s a premiere, all right then, keep your secrets
excited for tommorow
Thank you to you and your team for your informative and enthusiastic videos,they have a wonderfully unique charm
absolutely fascinating video series you've got going here, Milo. i'm very excited to see what else you've got planned, and would definitely be interested to see more deep dives into the archaeological history of this area in the future, if that's something you're interested in making videos about. i admit i'm particularly fascinated by ancient mesopotamia, so obviously i have a bias here, haha. on that note, though, thank you for introducing me to artifactually speaking! i love his stuff too, and the videos you two have done together have been very cool :D
LETS FUCKING GOOOO
not that im religious or anything, but stepping in someones grave and laughing about it.. is disrespectful

Bravo Milo, your hard work and enthusiasm is much appreciated. Rock on dude! 🤘
This is so interesting.
Always loved history so this is right up my alley.
