A short first-person look at the beautiful Greek Orthodox cathedral at Fira, Santorini. Follow Ancient Recitations for extra content on Facebook: / ancientrecitations
it's nice to see some support rather than an immense amount of pushback I got last time I brought this up! I would chip I'm maybe £10 a month for more content!
Why would you get pushback for this? "Hey I'd like to give the guy who makes this money" "what a scumbag!" I really like Sargon's history stuff, but am not that invested in Anti-SJWness, so would like to fund specifically that.
Yeah, some of the hardcore nutters picked up on my comment, calling me an SJW and all just because I don't watch the propaganda sort of content he does nowadays or whatever you might call it...
A 'Metropolitan Cathedral' in the Greek Orthodox Church is the seat of the 'Metropolitan', the religious leader of the community. It doesn't mean a 'metropolis' in the sense it's understood in Western Europe.
I'm Orthodox and really enjoyed this. Thanks Sargon.
The décor is fairly minimalistic for an Orthodox church, quite lovely.
Sargon comes across like a fucking giant in these videos. I'm not christian but that church looks absolutely gorgeous. I wish I could be there.
I've been to the Vatican and been inside St. Petersburg church, but I would love to visit more them in Italy and Greece. Absolutely gorgeous.
This is the sort of Byzantine inspired architecture upon which Turkish- style mosques are based.
That's because the Turks stole from the Byzantines. Truly a cultural appropriation if I've ever seen one
That really is gorgeous
Beautiful stuff Sargon thank ya
Are you doing mainland Greece as well? If you are by Thessaloniki try to get to Vergina. Epic tombs of Philip the 2nd.
#Lindygon
You going to be doing the foxtrot next?
:D
Did you get to drink the local wine called Vinsanto, especially the vin de liquer type? It's the best stuff I ever tasted.
Graphics are nice but the PNC don't react much...
once again asking for a patreon page just for Ancient recitations! I'd like to hear what your response is to this at least!
Agreed. Would fund.

+1500lego best bet is to DM Carl on twitter. I think he would be happy to make more content, he loves history.
Do they still conduct mass on sunday?
One day you should visit The Alamo
I've only been to Athens in Greece, though Sicily is half-greek. The architecture is fantastic. So were the AnonOps / anarchist shirt shops lmao.
Vacay envy
Has Sargon ever been to Serbia?
Wait, "metropolitan"? The whole Santorini island houses 15.000 people at the best of times. I guess they meant it by another meaning.
Mario Revuelta No it does not.
