The Titans are and Hecato whatever. Are actually weapons. They aall died are were banished or imprisoned.😉
“Uranus’ testicles were thrown into the ocean” is the greatest sentence I’ve ever read.
Did you know that Noah was Ouranos. And that the "castration" was a metaphor for Ham/Cronus having incestuous relations with his own mother... Gaia? The offspring of which were those that were cursed?
I am guessing, no. Am I wrong?
Isn’t it said that’s where sea foam comes from? 😂
The Romans call him Sans Testiclese
I thought that Cronos got his testicles cut off and thrown into the sea and Aphrodite appeared out of the foam.
@@MichaelTodd-tq8dk greek mythology is way older than the stories in the bible if that's what you're referring to
I am Greek, I have studied the mythology in school and throughout my whole life. But the way you tell the story got me so fascinated and excited. The storyline is clear, the details for each character are to the point! Well done really!
Thanks 😊
There's a series called Garner's Greek Mythology, andbI think you would enjoy his storytelling if you enjoy this channel.
Lies again? God Mode Gold Medals
@@SeeUinHistory i was less then 1 minute in and KNEW by Cronus i had to like and sub.
very well done
I’m only nine and I ADORE Greek mythology 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🖕🖕
Shoutout to Prometheus he’s a real one
He was the one whom should have been our god
Agree
I have loved ancient greek mythology since a child, this video is narrated so well with excellent visual and sound effect.well done.
sameee
I loved it
What's your age??
I’ll never forgive Poseidon and Athena for the filth they did to Medusa
Nope, they didn't. Medusa is born as a gorgon since she birth, the version of "human and get cursed" is made by nowadays, it never appear in any mythology, or ancient book. Either in Roman she also the monster.
@@deathgod4872I’ve never heard that ever?
@@Trey1x. The Medusa story you know first appeared is in BBC trailer 👉 The Clash of Titans. The author are Christian and they need write this story to blame the Greek Gods.
In Greek myth only mentions that she is the one of Gorgon born by Phorcys and Ceto, she and her sister are all monster with snake hair, winged and eyes can turn everyone to be monster. Her dad and mum is the monster, so she definitely also the pure monster.
But in Roman Ovid, he wrote Medusa has a beautiful hair monster, her powerful eyes is nature and she use her eyes killed many mortal. Minerva just cursed her hair become to snake only. And then, Medusa not the priestess of Minerva.
As you can see, the goddess written by Ovid is their native Roman god, not Athena. The curse of Athena you see is already a story written by modern writer.
Furthermore, the Roman gods are actually the same as the Greek gods in appearance, but they are quite different in essence, just like Minerva symbolizes peace, and Athena is in charge of strategy war.
Same
Imagine the luxury you must enjoy, to hold grudges against fictional characters.
‘Zeus is the keeper of Greek mythology’.
Kratos: Hold my beer BOY!!!
😂
Zeus: ...videogames. cool. 😏
this is my new comfort video
saaaame
Same. Discovered it yesterday. Has already lulled me to sleep twice. So calming and brilliantly done
1:09:33 is the farthest thing from comforting I can imagine.
It helps me fall asleep❤
At roughly 29:47 Zeus and Hera didn't meet in some garden, they were brother and sister. They would've met when Zeus freed his siblings from Kronos. Still a great video!
Sweet Home Alabama
Yes lol
It's depending on the source.😂😂there are lots of versions tho'
They met at the Olive Garden I thought
@@danielhoran8416nah your mixing things up with Roman mythology. They actually met at TGI Fridays.
Prometheus giving real Jesus energy huh
Exactly
don’t compare that weak “god” to the titan prometheus
@@ImIndavyjoneslocker kinda true, Jesus was only nailed on the cross for 3 days, Prometheus went through years of torture 😂🤟🏾
Yep. And when you listen to some Norse Mythology, Adam and Eve really sound like Ash and Elm. (The first humans in Norse Mythology.)
@@GehennaDreams13 fascinating! I'd not heard about that
This video did in two hours what my western philosophy class did in two weeks. Great video!
So true
..or 20+ years of indoctrination edited from Greek mythology, assimilated from Coptic mythology. Yet so many think the revamped version is real. Myth means made up doesnt it? Peace.
Is no one gonna mention how wild it is that Gaia gave birth to Uranus and then him making her his wife?
i'm afraid that's just how it goes in greek mythology my friend
Yeah that is strange
There was no things like one shouldn't marry his/her own siblings.😂
That’s why they had grotesque children that had to be locked up
When there's a hole...
It could just be the art that depicts this, but I love as the generations in the beginning get smaller within physical size, they get more powerful.
Why THE MOVIE INDUSTRY don't have any movies like this?? This would make a great mythology movie.
lol I read this after I said the same thing. How has there been 100 Jesus movies and not one about this.? This has Hollywood all over it. At best Netflix should make a season or two and do it right.
there is no way they will stick to mythology. they will mess it up as they do all the time.
and then they will try to make it a woke movie.
at least here the true mythology is told. i am greek and i know greek mythology.
i know what i am talking about.
I'll remember you said that when Netflix churns out a black Zeus.
Because hollyweird has been hijacked by people pushing narrative agendas.
@@LiGhTbOrN77they already made Alexander African American so there’s that. They really butcher anything they touch.
I’ve always watched everything on TV about the mythology but I’m enjoying this on your service
51:01 "in her escape through the grass, the unfortunate girl was stung by a pasnake" 😂
👏👏 Love it! I totally love it The BEST Stories of Greek Mythology from very beginning to the end! Now that was impressive best story Greek Mythology ever in history!
thank you :)
Thank you I appreciate it love all your stories of Greek Mythology it was a best ever.
26:50 the son who could defeat Zeus looks suspiciously like Kratos
Its prob Cratus the Greek Demi-God Of strength
I am so happy I've found your channel! I love every single comics on the Greco-Roman mythology, and others, that you have created!👏🏾💯...😊
I just enjoy Greek mythology, this 2hr treat was just great. Thank you.
Wooooow. Plenty of things I didn't know and questions unanswered are explained here. Thank you.
This compilation was soooooo goood and I loved that is was in order.❤🎉 Great video, had a blast listening to it while doing chores!!!
It's amazing how many of our words comes from Greek and Roman Mythology. Like the word "Saturday" coming from the Roman god Saturn .
Or how the word “python” comes from the monstrous mythical snake called…well, “python”.
And of course who can forget how the Roman name Biggus Dickus has infiltrated the English language,
Isn't every single day of the week based on one of them?
@@ninjawizard3865 Not really. Thursday is named after Thor who was a norse god, Friday was named after his wife Freya. Both tuesday and wednesday are named after old Germanic gods (Tiu and Woden respectively) and Sunday and Monday are named after the sun and moon. So just saturday then 😆
Many languages still use alot of Greek influence. It all has to do with when these lands were conquered/colonized that the mixing of different languages and cultures really started and grew into the languages we have today.
I love your channel and I love the way you tell these stories. I always read about these stories as a teenager in school, getting back to them to understand them, very beautiful, I'm very happy to hear them again told with pictures very great illustration's my friend, very great work and amazing art. Glad to have found your channel. Great work!
I throughly enjoyed your telling of these wonderful Greek legends.
What a great video! I love the artwork in this wonderful offering!
Justice for medusa
That’s not the actual story. Jeez
@@darthvader6404it is not?
@@Graellyfreckles
Yeah, that was written by Romans.
In Greek, she was a born monster alongside her sisters.
Ares: gets cheated on by Aphrodite
Hephaestus: “first time?”
Wow!! I love this!! I need to start implementing those things in the morning
Had to quickly come up with a name for my wonderful dog we adopted and I searched female Greek gods on my phone. Now we have Nyx, god of night and she’s the best doggo ever!
Lots of love to Nyx 😂❤
You & millions others....how droll.
My Greek grandfather used to have a big black guard dog. He called it Cerberus. Wise choice
I have two cats Hippolyta and Orpheus
I have two cats Lilith and Medusa 🤗
Thank u for bringing back to my memories all those beautiful stories that I used to read so many times as a child.❤
Although,something tells me that there is a piece of true in each one of them.😊
Not just a piece. Everything is truth. Based on my personal experience so far.
Who could create stories like this in pure mind?
@@KingCirclesplease can you tell how true these stories are?
if you are reading this comment i wish you all the best of life
This is really awesome. The graphics are phenomenal! Thank you. A long time ago when my mom was alive we'd sit in shade in the side yard and drink coffee in the mornings. She would talk of Greek Mythology as if they were neighbors. I remember being taken on journeys all over. This really brings those memories back intensely. Thank you again.
The graphics are from Mythology graphic novels. I used to read these to my daughters
Thats nice.
I think your mom might have been a Demi Goddess 😊
The thing people get wrong about the titans. They where not giants, the Titans where the same size as the Olympians. The Olympians did fight Giants at one point and that seems to be why alot of people thinks where so big. There was the Titanomachia but there was also the Gigantomachia. A battle that Heracles was influential in winning.
Where
Where
Where
But why would they not be big given who their parents were
Very informational! That’s very true! 👍👍
This is true
@@diamondanderson5972Why would they be?
Repeat this with me “ I don’t chase i I attract, what belongs to me will simply find me". Wishing you the best from Shanthi healing music
Thank you!
Excellent thank you!
Then along came Hercules, and saved Prometheus
Herakles not Hercules
@@gott9621 Whatever
Kratos
But he was saved 😊 Zeus is such a diva 🙄
@@vintage1950 Yeah
Why does the narrator sound EXACTLY like the voice in arrested development?
Now the story of an ancient family who fought each other as they invented everything,
And the one son who had no choice but to eat all of his children to keep ruling the universe,
It's arrested divinity.
Thank you for that story time
Beautiful story telling,
Uranus saw such horrors that he stamped "return to sender" and punched some mini-gods back INTO Gaia's bonus hole 😂😂😂
Bonus hole 🕳 😂🤭
This was fantastic
Awesome content
Adonis is one lucky man.😂
Agreed 😄😄
I’m so weirdly happy that I randomly skipped though the video and ended up at the Minotaur sequence😂😂
I love your design do Uranus, how his beard is also a cloud
The story of Medusa though has a controversial nature because Medusa was either a Gorgon or a human
Or just a cursed human sadly.
This is just a result of different variations of the story. Medusa was depicted as human in her story, yet somehow ended up with two gorgon sisters in Perseus’ story. The version in this video is their way of melding the stories in more coherent way.
Its myth, dont overthink it. Thats how the bible became the bs it is today
or just a fictional characters like Disney Princess whatsoever
I loved this video but if you're going to talk pure Greek myth, you should've used Heracles which is the Greek name for Hercules(Roman)
Great video
❤🤍💙 all your videos mate👍
I’ve come to the conclusion, that Zeus had some deep daddy issues. Your to nice, he curses you, you listen to him he still curses you.
😊western
Your to
Your to
Your to
Careful, he might see this comment 😂
AoM got me hooked on Greek mythology
true my eyes caught on the creation of Japan and its Gods, but this video have a really good stories, namely the creation of centaurs, and the kings who anger the gods with their actions.
At 01:00:08 you say Hercules, sorry but Hercules was Roman, you mean Heracles, same God but different culture from a slightly different age with a minor overlap between both.
Excuse me but it wasn't Hermes that led Demeter to the underworld to go reclaim her daughter Persephone's. That honor and credit belongs to Hecate.
I've always read it as Hermes
I thouroughly enjoyed your presentation. Makes 'black' Orphius movie make more sense.
I love it❤
Watching this you realise Zeus was the enemy of humanity.
The story behind the origin of the tortoise and the rooster were great😊
Thanks
Medusa's story is just a version of blaming and shaming the victim. Shows how sexism has been inherited from different civilizations.
I always believed the same thing. I often wondered how she became the bad guy in the story
Great video but I did see one mistake. This video says Prometheus broke Athena out of Zeus's head but I have always read that was Hephaestus.
Yes! Learned it in high school and college!
Wow 😲.😳 Amazing
"after swallowing his wife" how casually that was said cracked me up so bad x'D
30:50 Chelone is so real for that😂😭 Hermes needs to calm tf down
It's amazing to read the gospels and to see how Jesus one upped every ancient god. Not only did He humble himself and become human, but in His humanity, did everything better than the gods in their divine forms, that's amazing.
Exactly! I’ve always been fascinated by the difference because of how selfish the Greek mythology gods are. Don’t get me wrong, I respect it, but the fact that the “gods” have the bodies, mentalities and mortality of a human is fascinating compared to how perfect Jesus is.
I admit, Medusa in her human form looks attractive
Idk man the snake form makes me hard as stone
YOUR THE BEST CZcamsR EVER
I live your great story of the historical world of the greeks
:)
What an amazing video. This should be the definitive archive for the next 1000 years. Unless they come out with a decent movie. It seems strange that there are dozens if not hundreds of movies about Jesus yet there is not one on this amazing story. It seems like Hollywood would have done the definitive collection.
Does anyone think about how the war of gods and titans would have never happened if cronus was just a good father
well...if Cronus would have just cut his own balls off soon as he realized he had a pair....NONE of this would have happened
@@allenlindsey1175 yes or if he just didn’t try to eat his own kids
This was a great video. Very well done. Thank you!
thax Jen
I love this❤😢
57:05 “the golden color of gold”
Man, even by cruel gods standards the greek gods are horrible monsters. Kratos gave those bastards what they deserved.
thoroughly enjoying … on a Sunday at that
Also, Chaos was the first ever primordial before Gaia
Its implied you illiterate 2 digit iq
That’s a myth
There had to have been a chicken to lay the egg
Chaos was born to Chronos and Ananke
@@milutinstankovic4638 Wrong because Chaos created chronus and ananke so you are wrong. How can chronus and ananke existed before Chaos? It doesn't make sense. Learn it better please
Quite a bit more to the midas story than in this, the whole donkey ears bit and his gold stuff didnt just ungold when he was in the river it returned to normal in running water
I would love if they made another movie for this generation.
Are the comics depicted in this video from the book attached by Donna Jo Napoli? I would like to purchase the book that contains these illustrations but cannot view the pages inside the book anywhere. Thank you in advance!
There was a song called 'The Midas Touch'. Said everything he touched turned to gold... now i know where they got that idea from. Thank-you.
Gods, I love these stories it truly makes you wonder if any of these stories are true
I'm curious about Hercule. How did you come across this information? Would love to hear more!
Watch the 12 labours of Hercules. It's all about his heroics.
@@Amar-nx3bf Thank you. I might make one video about it myself
Also his name is heracles
Also he kills himself
A 2 hour video! Must be a lot of work. But, perfect to get your mind off of something.
Definitely.
The only thing missing seems to be subtitles (non-autogenerated ones) for, with the strong English accent,I had problem finding out who the narrator was talking about at times, and ofc the AG subs don't recognize names like lesser-known Greek gods. Otherwise probably one of the best documents on Greek mythology.
I have a friend named Rhea. She LOVES her name, she has always been proud of her name
Prometheus was a hero to all of humanity. Such a tragic character, and uncharacteristically selfless for a god/titan
41:50 Athena wanted ALL the Smoke!!!
If you could add timestamps 🥺👌🏾
Chronos was stuck to Gaia and nothing could exist. Chronos’ brothers stretched Ouranos over the the sky in north south East and west. I think that was their names as well.
There’s a animated movie that’s also good, called Winds Of Change
Hi im just now looking at you show about greek mythology it really caught my attention so it seem the it similar to the game god of war and i like it
I have not checked, but I wonder if you have converted this audio into a podcast that you could easily become very well loved even without the images if you released 20 minutes at a time
His Greek name is Herakles,his Roman name is hercules
yes
These stories are intriguing and is much fun to watch at the same time. Prometheus was the most good one among all of them. And among the girls Medusa was the best..I really felt sorry for her.
Nahh this is some of the greatest
I can't find anything about Kronos/Chronus's scythe being made out of diamonds. Does anybody know anything about this? I'd never heard of it before
The story of Lots wife turning back and being turned to salt has some similarities regarding the turning back part,what does this mean?
