Hi there big fan asking again could u please do ur take on General Michael Collins im sure alot of people would like to see none more then me thank u
Hello Simon,
Can you make a biographic about Elwood Towner?
A native america who had good relations with the Nazis
Bro I request meters as 300 feet is a ridiculous measurement
Brilliant, simply brilliant. I have no other words for it, other than :,,Ancient Egypt is a Beautiful Realm of the Cosmic Order, one of the most astonishing Civilization that history has presented to us in the past. Imperator Gaius Julius Caesar of the Res Publica Romanum married to Queen Cleopatra of the Ptolemaic Kingdom from Ancient Egypt, Cleopatra was descendant of Ptolemy I Soter of Makedonia who defeated Darius III at the battle of Gaugemela in Mesapotamia under the subliminal leadership of Philippos II and Alessandros III Omegas of Makedonia from the Argread Dynasty who ruled over a huge Empire and were inspired by people like Homerus who wrote the Iliad and Odyssey." Regards, Alex.
Djoser lived nearly 5,000 years ago, it’s frankly amazing we have anything on him. Entire civilizations have risen, fallen, and been forgotten about in they same time
“OMG What are you doing, step-pyramid?”
+1 internets
Bravo sir 👏 🤣
Most underrated comment, by far!
That was stupid af… I loved it though 😂
Your beard is looking simply majestic, Simon. Please don’t let ANYONE tempt or harangue you into the destruction of such a glorious monument to facial follicular strength.
Please do a video on Tamerlane. Not only was he a conqueror as brutal as Gengis Khan and Attila the Hun, but he isn't as well known as those two.
On the same day the Soviets have him a proper funeral, with all the pomp and ceremony, they won the battle of Stalingrad. Coincidence?
Wish come true
If he hasn't made this video yet, please spam the comment section of his new videos. I have never heard of this person, but I want fact boi to teach me
@@pyromania1018 literally yes.
1:15 - Chapter 1 - Djoser

I clicked so fast, my phone went back in time.
Edit: Happy Holidays everyone!
Digging the extremely sharp Christmas sweater. Excellent style choice.
Hooray more Egypt
To make it all the more fun:
One of the Pharaohs' favourite past times was to destroy relics of their forefathers, in effort to claim titles and glories themselves.
Does make it really hard to find out where one Pharaoh's reign ended and the next begun.
In the end they where even re-using the same two names over and over again... Yay, confusion!
That's Petty... Why didn't they want to actually perform their own deeds & thus obtain achievements??
@@jamellfoster6029
They wanted but couldn't.
@@bobfg3130 wow
Ramses the second
Love Egyptian history videos
Kinda finding it hard to pay attention to anything aside from Simon's beard and that jumper.
And now I want one 🥺🥺🥺
With every channel Simon makes his beard grows larger and his dome shinier and chrome
Seems Simon forgot that Biographics has already done a video on the fourth dynasty.
I came here to say this but checked to see if anyone else did first lol
Hahah good others noticef
I’m pretty certain Simon doesn’t remember what he ate for breakfast. He’s said multiple times on multiple channels that he just reads facts. He’s not great at memorisation, but at performance he’s amazing.
@@CraftyVegan I guess I should have said that it's the script writers that forgot.
Cicero would be a great biographic
With the exception of the last few revolutions and dictatorships in the 20th and 21st centuries, I say I'm proud of Egyptian history, even if I'm only half Egyptian.
And so you should be. 5000 years of doing stuff is going to leave a mark lol
That's unfortunately how it is today. Most of the cradles of civilization nowadays are 3rd world hellholes like the Middle East, in massive debt like Greece, or a dictatorship like China
@@rockgod6180 We shouldn't have exported our ideas of 'society' to Northern Europe 😂 Should have made sure we keep control over Rome, Carthage and later Gaul and Britannia 😂
Maybe one day it will return to greatness. But that certainly won't be under its current regime and with all the corruption.
@@iCheZee Carthage was in Africa tho...
More fuel for RPG worldbuilding!
Merry Christmas Simon, to you and your family ❤️✌️🎄 one love
I just wanted to point out how awesome Simon's Christmas jumper is.
Merry Christmas, Simon!
Am I the only one thinking Djoser's legend sounds tantalizingly similar to Joseph and the 7 year of famine he faced...and the fact that Djoser and Joseph sound quite similar?
Very interesting 🤔
the bible pulls tons and tons of ancient pseudo-histories that had, until compiled together, mostly been oral histories. the story of moses and the flood, similarly, comes from an old sumerian myth/pseudo-history, too. theres evidence that there WAS a massive, devastating flood in the area historically, but the biblical level of detail is probbbbably mostly the work of embellishment via oral history. im guessing the djoser/joseph famine story is similar, especially with the whole power-tripping, insecure god coming down to throw a tantrum about his temple not being shiny enough aspect.
It's almost like someone took a bunch of stories and put them into a book destined for the Fictional Stories section... :P
I would also like to add that its rather odd how a lot of famines/plagues/etc etc back then seemed to last 7 yrs......
7 is a common number to signify lengthy period.
Note: You have already done a 4th dynasty video, like 10 months ago, according to my CZcams recommendations. The video is titled "The Fourth Dynasty Egypt: The Age of the Pyramid Builders"
*WE NEED MORE OF THESE VIDEOS SIMON !!!!*
Please do one about William of Orange
Thanks for another amazing video!
Great Christmas sweater whistler. Happy holidays, as usual great video.
Great video. Captivating.
Hatshepsut was a Badass
Happy New Year Simon 👋👋👋🍻🍻🍻😁😁😁
Innovations during Ancient Egypt have inspired many other civilizations in upcoming ages. Ancient Greeks, for example, were influential from them so highly.
this is true, Greeks changed a lot when they infused / over took eygpt/kemet
It's true, the Sumerians influenced egypt, prior to the earliest dynasties... Cunieform, mastabas, cylinder seals, ect... All Caucasians... Blue eyed ones. And the Greeks, as adonis is demuzi... A shepherd that won over a farmer( Cain z& abel) the flood , genesis ect...
@@sosa5302 They were influenced from a way earlier age. Take a look at archaic Greek statues, very similar to Egyptian sculpture. The "post and lintel" style architecture was also influenced by Egypt.
It’s finally back!!!!!
Another video full of interesting information.
Thank you so much. I am a big fan of yours and i am absolutely fascinated by ancient egypt. Please do more!!!!!!
I love this channel! Have you ever thought of doing a segment on Sinclair Lewis?
I've never heard of him
Ancient Egypt is one of the many reasons why i love history. Truly all things that are so vague yet interesting
Thank you Simon
Interesting video
I like to see humans get ambitious that’s when we make the biggest growth. I wish I could see more of human history past and to come.
I just cant stop to be in awe when it comes to the egyptian civilization
Hope you, your family and friends have a good holiday 🥃
Love Simon's sweater. I had one like this as a kid.
You have done well
Just finished watching 10 times we had to revise history. I woke up hankering for some Whistler Wisdom this morning. Awesome Christmas sweater by the way.
Thank you.
I live for Simon throwing shade at Akhenaten.
Simon for the win
Very interesting.
Love the sweater
Would you consider doing videos on Joan diddion and eve babitz? They both died the past week and I’d love to learn more about their lives and work.
Why does Djoser story kinda sounds like the the Story of Joseph in the bible??! Ringing any bells!. I'm super excited about this biopic, loved it like I really enjoy the rest.
I was looking forward to the image of Huni.
You forgot to mention that they use to play duel monsters and the pharaoh atem according to Japan lol . But I loved the video about Egypt
I like your cute sweater, Simon!
Epic sweater
Is there a video on the 2nd dynasty?
if the name Imhotep sounds familiar then might i say that the real-life Imhotep and the one from The Mummy staring Brenden Fraiser are two different people. the one in the movie lived during the time of Seti I who if not mistaken is from a different and later dynasty.
One a HUGE problem with Egyptian and Roman history is they really like to reuse names. Like a lot
@@Beesus- like every culture ever? I'm guessing your name is John or something lol.
@@froggystyle642 That's none of your business and ill thank you to stay out of my personal affairs.
@@Beesus- saucy
@@Beesus- ooh very saucy John
Snazzy sweater there Simon
Merry Xmas 🎄 Sweater Boy 👦
Please create a channel where you talk about mythological people or legends
How about a feature on MGM's "fixer", Eddie Mannix? This man was balls-deep in the sordid underbelly of Hollywood society for over a quarter of a century. He climbed a mountain in business suit, dress shoes and fedora to find Carole Lombard's downed plane...and was a 'person of interest' during the investigation of the suicide of TV's Superman. He was a LEGEND.
Simon's Christmas shirts are on fleeeekkkk
Cringe
Djoser: It's time I really step up my game.
Imhotep: It's funny you should say that.
Save the advertisements for the beginning or end of the video. Please and thank you
Nice sweater
I watched somewhere that the step pyramid was originally 4 steps but then they decided to expand the bases then build two more steps. Thought that was interesting
The 7 years of famine in Djoser's reign sounds like the Biblical story of Joseph where there were initially 7 years of prosperity followed by 7 years of famine & want. This famine was throughout the Middle/Near East... In this Bible passage, God spoke to Pharaoh in 2 dreams via the dreams of the fat 🐄 s & emaciated 🐄 s & the healthy grain & withered grain... Some say that Joseph lived at a later time, but this is not quite certain...
um, where's the video about the second dynasty?
No Second Dynasty Video?
Please post more videos about
-Thales of Miletus
-Empedocles
-Parmenides
-Heraclitus
-Anaksagoras

-Al Farabi
-Al Ghazali
Thumbs Up button hit for the sweater alone
6 feet and 1 inch tall. :O How could anyone even breathe the air that high up?
Haha Simon, you've already done a Biograpgics video on the Fourth Dynasty.
How about Moltke the Elder or Wilhelm I to promote Warographics?
Wasn’t this video already made and released by you a while ago?
Can you please make a video on John Langalibele Dube and Charlotte Manya Makgomo Maxeke 🥺🙏?
Surprised that Simon didn't mention Aliens or Stargate in this video like he did on his other channels.
Huni was known as , "Huni, The Smitter".
If you are really interested in learning about Ancient Egypt , watch the videos by Professor Joanne Fletcher . She is the top Egyptologist on the planet .
She is to Ancient Egypt , what Dame Mary Beard is to the Roman Empire .
Wtf..
Graham Hancock..
Ralph Ellis
Michael Tsarion
John Anthony West
Velikovsky
Plato
Joanne still goes with the pyramids were tombs for Pharoahs debunked no evidence claim..come on ..critical research ..not shallow stuff like this guy.
That Joanne Fletcher is the arch-typical Egyptologists with a long heritage of Europeanizing Ancient Egypt for Europe and Asia.
Making more and more documentaries does not make that person an 'excellent' scholar.
You can take a native African population with genetic (E-V38) and Linguistic roots in Africa then beaqueath it to West Asia and Europe, your kith & kin.
@@shanosantwanos3908 1st and foremost how dare you include Plato's name in a list filled with so many total idiots. Not 1 of the names on your list is even an egyptologist so why you made that list is beyond me. Graham Hancock is a known liar just watch any of his videos. He has twisted facts and misrepresented them just to provide evidence for his BS ideas of an ancient advanced civilization. He has even been debunked on British tv. Ralph Ellis is someone i am not familiar with but he appears to be just a surveyor with a computer science background......He also seems to believe in some technical civilization also. A civilization that has yet to be proven ever existed outside of these fools imaginations. Michael Tsarion no clue who he is but i bet ya he is not qualified to even be in a list with Joanne Fletcher let alone fricken Plato. John West is just another author and another fool that thinks water erosion on a rock dates the sphinx to be older. Which is wrong. The water erosion is not on any carved part of the sphinx which actually would be good evidence its only on the outer rim of the enclosing wall. Great job guys all of you managed to prove the rock came before the sphinx, gee thanks guys but everyone had already figured that out. Velikovsky is yet another author. So many authors in this list an not 1 of em even worth mentioning. This dude is mostly concerned with catastrophes of the past and only mentions egypt to point out parallels between the biblical and egyptian history. How the hell does this dude make the list?
The pyramids as tombs has never been debunked and yes there is proof you are just a blind man following way to many blind men. You wanna do some critical research, huh? Try looking up what was found in Djoser's sarcophagus and explain how that got there. Theres plenty of proof if you would actually do your own research and stop following these blabbering idiots.
@@ohlangeni Have you even watched any of her videos? I must have to admit i have only watched very few but there was no europeanizing. She explained the culture, history and customs of the people and seemed to really love her work.
@@mattking993 Yes I have watched her video documentaries.
She would referrence the historical region of Egypt called Nubia as inhabited by Black Africans who mimick Egyptian culture.
At some point, she would point south of Egypt as 'Africa' as if Egypt is not in Africa.
The Kingdom of Kush was situated in Nubia, a region that also traverse Ancient and modern Egypt. In fact, Upper Egyptians who founded Pharaonic Egypt came from Lower Nubia.
The royal family of Kush came from Kerma, a kingdom founded initially as a Nome by a son of the 4th Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of Egypt.
The settlements/pre-Dynastic Kingdoms of Badari, Naqada & Ta Seti gave birth to the Kingdoms of Egypt and Kush. .
So, the people of Kush or the inhabitants of the region Nubia were not mimicking the Egyptians. They were practising their culture native to the Nile Valley with roots at Nabta Playa in North-West Sudan / southern Libya.
How come I can't find the second dynasty on your channel?
cool. i'm 6,3. i'm literally taller than a ancient giant.
I have always wondered why the Old Kingdom has better technology than later generations
Because the people that brought and taught it, left.
@@iamperplexed4695 lol
‘ALIENS’
@@vdotmeactually makes sense
Simon, if you keep growing your beard, you won't need a holiday sweater next year. Impressive,most impressive.
Do a video on Vellupillai Prabhakaran.
What about second dynasty
Where’s the second dynasty vid
Simon alluded to an upcoming video of the 4th dynasty…but they did one already..?
More, more, more.
loving that beard
The Fourth Dynasty was done about ten months ago!
Thank you , all .
🐺
My professor was right. Djoser’s statue does reveal dreadlocks! 🤯
on which vikings had too, your point?
@@megalol3625 You haters always hang around.
I'm still waiting on that Steve Biko biographics
Do shoot out at ok corral
So, you’re telling me imhotep wasn’t a high priest that came back to life and became a plague upon the world? What would i do without biographics? 😂
Where's the second dynasty? I see 1,3,4,5 ?
Now we gotta hear about the dark ages
Was there a "who can wear the ugliest Xmas sweater contest".. at the office?
Where is the 2nd dynasty?
Would be cool if you use metric? So we in Europe know what is what XD Thank you :)
Not just Europe but like 90% of the world 🤣
I wonder if the thirty dynasty's thing was him trying to make Egypt sound older than it was at that point. Perhaps the mystique of ancient Egypt existed even back then. Kinda makes sense when you live among such monuments and I bet in the third century they had access to monuments we don't even know they had access to.
