Recorded this one months ago, Glad to have finally got round to finishing it! Best material yet coming over the next two months ... Don't forget to like and subscribe if you liked the vid, and let me know in the comments what you'd like to see covered in the future!
Great stuff thanks for sharing,happy new year buddy.
Aw man, I feel you're getting better and better at the rhythm and general tone of your hallmark sweeping storytelling. It's really entertaining (and you have a lovely and soothing voice :).
If I offer a suggestion, it would be a short couple minute summary at the end of the video, to wrap it all up in our puny brains
ANOTHER FANTASTIC VIDEO
Pictsure perfect video HT
I thought MacArther was king around Galloway-Strathclyde...
Nah, I went to high school with Kenneth McAlpine. He's a mechanic now, he's doing good, has a wife, and a family. I hear they are buying a house soon.
The Janny in my school was called Mr Mcalpine. Was a cool guy, had a big loud voice and he would shout “HAWLLLLLL” if you were doing something wrong. Drove a motorbike.
There was a boy in my school called Kenneth McAlpine. Wee bam was as far from a king as you could get
Once he finishes restoring my 99 323i he should have that down payment 👍
Dig his brother Hamish keep goal for Dundee utd?
Scottish & Vikings history = nothing better! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching! More on the way!
Cracking video as always - brilliant work!
Thanks mate!
-Reads Constantine the 2nd
-Thinks:EASTERN ROMAN EMPIRE TIIIIIME!!!
-Reads Scotland....
-STAYS CAUSE SCOTTISH HISTORY IS A FASCINATING TOPIC.
Byzantine stuff on the way. Should be worth the wait. Been writing them for more than a year.
Me too! ;)
Μy thoughts excactly.
Prophet Kacou Philippe:
16. Some say: "Do not say, this is the voice of Matthew 25:6.", “I’m the only prophet on the earth”… But I will! They have no biblical foundation and cannot do it. When Gabriel comes, he says: "I am Gabriel, who stand before God, fear not ..." John the Baptist says: "This is he who has been spoken of through Isaiah ..." Matthew 3:1 to 3. I will do it again, you do not have any portion with us, keep quiet! And I will condemn you by naming you, even if you call that insults, judgments, or arrogance, that is what your fathers did to the Lord Jesus. Let’s read that: John 8:13-14: "... Thou bearest witness concerning Thyself ..." and Luke 11:45:" thou insultest us". You see? Demons do not die. Sons of the devil, sons of Belial! Leave them! I will not let myself be distracted.
17. They are wicked ones and the Bible says in Daniel 12 that they will not understand. While people make all their effort to progress, after the example of the brethren sitting here; some travel tens of kilometers every Sunday morning to be here. See the brothers and sisters of Port-Bouët… if there was no lagoon, several would walk to be here! [Ed: The congregation shouts "Amen!"] And instead of accepting that, they talk of collaboration. I prefer death to collaboration. They are obliged to humbly come here to have eternal Life; it is "Thus saith the Lord!" [Ed: The congregation says: “Amen!”]
18. Today, on the whole face of the earth, no one can be saved outside what I Prophet Kacou Philippe, I preach. I am the only prophet that the Lord Jesus-Christ has sent to mankind. Like in the time of Noah, I, Kacou Philippe, slave of Jesus Christ, I am the only one and no one can be saved outside what I preach. [Ed: The congregation says: “Amen!”]
@@HistoryTime Yes please, not enough history of the Eastern Roman Empire is known in Western countries.

@@Felishamois Isn't it sad that i'm subscribed to most of those?
@@thebigsad9463 nah, we're good I think
Yo're watching the best right now.
@@Felishamois Good list, but I would definitely add TimeGhost History and World War 2 channels. From people, who co-created The Great War (including Indy himself). They are also about to lunch a channel in cooperation with the Sabaton metal band. ;)
Beside that:
- Historiograph and TIK for even more mostly WW2 military history (the later goes very in-depth).
- The History Guy makes video essays on a variety of topics he finds interesting, with a slight focus on American history.
- M.Laser is a good, very underappreciated channel, also with wide range of topics, but focusing on the history of Europe, especially Central.
- Potential History and Jack Rackam are good channels presenting history in a slightly humorous way (one particularly likes modern military history, other biographies of historical figures).
- HistoryMarche is a very good channel similar to Bazbattles and Kings and Generals
- There are multiple channels similar to Ollie Bye and Emperor Tigerstar. I personally particularly like Danzig HD Mapper.
- The Cynical Historian does reviews of historical movies, similar to the History Buffs, but also other types of videos on historical and history-related topics.
There are so many others worth mentioning, I can't keep up with all of them. Which, I suppose is a good problem to have.
Let me just say how astonished I am with the quality of each & every one of your episodes & how grateful I feel for the opportunity to listen & learn from every one!!! The high level of scholarship & attention to details I all the topics you cover is mind blowing, I'm a very huge history geek & it's a great pleasure for me to have such fantastic programs to expand my knowledge of several areas in history that I haven't been able to read on myself but am able to listen to these instead!! Thank you for your hard work & keep up the awesome work! I also love Voices from the Past & listen to both channels nightly!!!🤓😍
I literally never get tired of seeing Worcester pop up on your videos. MERCIA FOREVER!
For Mercia!
I understand your love of Mercia. I live in the Kingdom of Elmete part of the Kingdom of Deira or Yorkshire as is now known .
Silly Mercians thinking you own everything. 😂🤣🤣 Oh wait.
Another Mercianophile here
I was born in Worcester Massachusetts USA. Kind of the same feeling, but then again I surely see the difference.
Scotland is such a fascinating country - a kingdom formed by/from an amalgamation of several different ethnic/cultural groups, made even more complex by its long relationship with England.
It reminds me of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
Amazing documentary as always!
Couldn’t agree more. Fascinating countries both of them
@ True, although I wasn't saying anything about any "races", just groups loosely defined by language and culture in general.
BenjaminFranklin99 the Picts were a pure race
Fascinating subject/material. Well presented. You put a lot of work into this vid. I enjoyed this very much!
Steve in the Mountains thanks for watching!
Can’t get enough of your videos! I never thought I’d be convinced to contribute to a patreon but your channels are by far my favorite on CZcams! Looking forward to more great videos this year!
Thanks mate glad you like them!
Love the shot of Kenneth MacAlpine from the Phoebe Anna Traquair mural in the Queen Street Portrait Gallery here in Edinburgh. My surname is Lyall, from Legulf, the Wolf, a Viking sailor and relative of the Earl of Orkney and Caithness. My dad’s people were fisherfolk from north east Scotland. We are related to Clan Sinclair. On my mother’s side I am Jewish. I’ve got plenty to research in my family tree both sides!
Yes! So glad for new video in 2019! Love your work man! Thank u as always. So enjoyable!
Thanks for watching friend !
Holy cow. This is completely new information to me. Thank you for your dedication!
How about a study of the Gallowglass Pictish/Vikings the special forces of Europe 👍
excellent video. I enjoy both of your channels immensely.
Great video as always. Just a small point, the place Scone is pronounced skoon!
Brilliant as always 😍 keep them coming 😊👍
The music makes me ectastic
That's was awesome all your videos are amazing keep up the great work 👑👍
thanks u for the video, it was great as always
thanks for watching !
Great vid man,keep up the good work 👍
It is a good day when History time uploads a video. I learn so much stuff I didn't know about. This is why I love youtube I get the full history if things lovely.
Thanks for watching friend !
Once again, BEAUTIFULLY DONE 👍 Going to the second channel to hear poem. Thanks History Time.
Thanks man! Appreciate you watching the channel
Ancestors of the O hEochaidh, Dal Fiatach dynasty, Hoy, and Orkneys, Hoy Island Norse Hoay, amazing watching my heritage and history during turbulent times, and how much we have grown today as a U.S. Citizen, truly amazing, thank you for this video, all the very best.
Alba gu Brath!
Awesome video as always my friend! Fantastic information that you're bringing forth for us. I love the opportunity to learn about so much that is entirely obscure to so many.
I definitely recommend giving us some videos regarding the Kingdoms of Strathclyde and Moray, as well as the Kingdom of the Isles, and their relationship with Alba.
This might mean revisiting topics like Macbeth and Gudred Crovan, but considering the richness of the historical tapestry, is that truly so bad?
Also good to hear more about Brunaburh. It is interesting to wonder, considering the impending arrival of Canute and Guillaume, whether anything would have been changed if Aethelstan had lost.
If you have covered the birth and now consolidation of Scotland, surely now is time for the Davidian Revolution and the modernization of Scotland?
Awesome work!
Now you're speaking my language! Strathclyde, Moray, Rheged, Gododdin are all on the way! & Davidian Revolution eventually.
@@HistoryTime i hope the Davidian Revolution video is an interesting one, and I'm totally looking out for it. While definitely at least one part of my family is Norman and moved North of the border then, I actually think the Saxon side of my family, also migrated to Scotland during the Davidian Age.
@@HistoryTime The Margaretsons are probably the most extensively researched aspect of Scottish history, but it should be fun. Just don't forget those pesky Flems.
thank you !!!!
this channel is a epiphany
very good info that we need
YES!!!! ANOTHER EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!!! I needed this EPIC escape from "modern" and "civilized" life , to get back to a world I'm more a tune with.... as odd as this sounds..... (sorry, my life's been hell lately, so thank you for reminding me of my first love so amazingly and selflessly, HISTORY!!!!!!) That being said thank you again and may my Lord bless you, hopefully we will meet and I will be able to bless you as you have done for me, though I doubt I could ever repay my debit to you and your diligence and hard work.... for history!!!!!!!! Which has provided me, [a voracious history lover (and holder of a bachelor's history degree)] with so much more than I ever thought possible .... THANK YOU AGAIN MY FRIEND!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much for watching. Glad you like the channel friend
Superb as usual.
Brilliant. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! Appreciate it
just discoverd this channel, love it
Thanks for checking it out! Appreciate t
Even more than your previous videos, but this was a truly epic story.
I'm reading the Orkneyinga Saga right now. Perfect timing!
Great video again i love this period of time.
P.s i read the war of the wolves you re right is truly good
Thanks very much! Glad you like it!
Yes! A half an hour history time video.
Thanks for watching mate!
Cheers, really interesting video
William Clarke thanks very much. Appreciate it!
History Time = good times
Thanks for watching!
Cool, Thxs.
Viking King in Scotland with a Greek name. Yay history!
But they weren't vikings, were they?
Hahahahahaha. I am Greek. I am a Nationalist and very good in my country's history one of the last :'( Ι love all European history . So i see Constantine 2nd and thinking wtf? Maybe he was an ex-varangian wanted to be baptized as Christian or something. loooool. Nice channel mate. Nice video as well. And we do have some "myths" out there about origins of Scots...Greeks love Scots actually!
That's right enough - you even took on the Scottish custom of kilt wearing ;)
Aleks Pavlovic, that's right, the Scots were not Vikings. That's why the two ethnic groups fought each other so savagely and, as a Gaelic-speaking friend of mine says, the Scots held off the Romans and smashed the Vikings, etc., etc.!
@Bear hn Greek connection was far before the romans.Stonehenge was made by Greek ''builders'' (Mycenae).CONSTANTINE is a latin origin name even though it was used by Greeks.
Just got my Ancestry test kit back. 25% English, 35% Scottish, 15% Norway, the rest is split between German and Russian DNA. I Believe that I was on both sides of that fight. 1000 years before I was born.
89% Scots 9% Irish 2% Swedish/Baltics here, my main ancestor maybe escaped back up the road to Scotland after Brunanburh lol
This is excellent.
"The royal capital of Scone" pronounced "Scoon".
This is my favorite one... Thus far!
Well done!
Man I love your work, I'm a look into my budget, you need sponsoring, it's important work.
excellent
Thanks very much!
Your awesome!
Best presentation on the origins of my ancestors, the Scots, that I've found yet; and I've been looking for some time, to find this.
Many thanks, for sharing all your hard work. Loved it!
Dude they are all our ancestors anyone alive a thousand years ago are all of our direct descendants across Northern Europe. You can lay claim to being related to Charlemagne as that was even further back you are also a direct descendant of Tutankhamun...
Wow! People just love anything to do with Vikings - need to do something on them at some point. Nice video!
After watching your usual awesome presentation, and while you're on the subject, would a piece on Somerled and his family and descendants be too much to ask?
Absolutely going to revisit Somerled, the Crovan dynasty & generally the history of the Irish Sea coasts
@@HistoryTime Can't wait! I'm supposed to be Hunter/MacGregor from Ayrshire. Would a piece on Glencoe be too late for you're preferred time scale?
My favourite King 🏴❤️🏴
I love my Viking/Dane heritage.
Gustaaf Argoan do u own an axe?
Thank you for this illuminating history, it clearly conveys just how unlikely and tenuous the emergence and enduring survival of early Scotland was. Excellent work 👍🏻
Domnall, contrary to what the spelling would have you believe, was more than likely pronounced as "Donall" by his countrymen.
Fascinating work! I am doing some research on the Viking age in Scotland. Having trouble finding descriptions of clothing though. What fabrics, materials, dyes were available at the time and what classes wore what. And footwear. ( for a book, and I need to be able to describe clothing )
My favourite King of 🏴
Hey Pal, would love if you could make some videos on Ancient Persia and also Ancient African kingdoms. WOULD.LOVE.THIS!
Hey Pete!!! The song at the beginning of this video is not in the list of music for the video. I've been trying to find that song for, I'm not kidding, over a decade. Could you please tell me the name of the song or the composer? Thank you!!
Excellent!. Too bad there isn't more known about King Penda of Mercia, the last Pagan King/ That would be a good video as well.
He annoyed Northumbria by murdering their King Oswald. St. chad, from Lindisfarne came to Mercia and establish a Cathedral at Lichfield. Chad walked miles to convert the last pagan kingdom of Mercia and did convert Peada and Wulfhere. The place names locally still reflect the old Saxon gods e.g. Wednesfield - Wodensfield and Wednesbury. I used to live in a tiny village called Chadsmoor. It is supposed to be at this time the Staffordshire Hoard was buried.
I've just disagreed with your view . Please do not think I hold a negative opinion about this channel it is outstanding . I am an avid viewer . Thank you for being so good .
It's interesting how the norse and celtic cultures are very different yet very similar.
I'm always suprised he lived so long
It's a crazy length of a reign for this time period
@@HistoryTime I like what you done there 😏
Nice to see you've got a sponsor. I suspect, however, that a lot of your subscribers are TW fans like me; those Vikings: War of Clans folks are gonna have to seriously improve their combat aspects, based on what you showed, before they get me or anyone remotely like me, to play. I hope they do make the improvements, it looks like fun otherwise. But if they're gonna go the Sid Myers route, they've lost me.
A fair point! Though I have to add I personally love the Sid Meier games, Massive Civilization & Alpha Centauri fan over here.
@@HistoryTime I respect the Civ folks, and back when I was young straight strategy was all you got. But after playing Total War for so long, I just can't derive as much satisfaction from crushing the foe without making it personal and wading through the fallen.
16:30 And by no means the last example of this in history either.
At 19.12,what is the place-name, please?
So, apart the famous Constantine the great, another Constantine, a Scottish one this time, changed the course of history! There must be something about that name! ;)
Though several other kings & emperors with the name failed magnificently. I think maybe the name is just pretty common
History Time thats my name and yeah its not that rare
name of music at 18:40?
nice cross
Music at intro? ?
I hope we get to see this battle in The Last Kingdom before it ends
wow
sweet
Thanks!
Better to live a single day as a lion, than a thousand years as a worm.
You butchered that saying lol
It should have been....
It is better to live a single day as a lion than a hundred years as a sheep.
scone pronounced "scoon" Gaelic in scotland is "ga-lic" in ireland "gay-lic" as its two similar but different languages
Me being Scottish that cracked me up 😂
It’s a great video but as a Scottish islander its called Gaelic (Gah-life) not (Gay-lic) that’s Irish
I’m also a Scottish islander and gàidhlig is my first language and it’s actually pronounced gah-lick
The emphasis in the name "Dunottar" is on the "o".
The last kingdom brought me here
"... sometimes after 911..." It took me few seconds to understand it wasn't 9/11 joke ;p
Surprisingly large amount of events in history happened on that date
Seriously. People are gonna have to start looking up dates before planning a battle.
mac Alpin (no hard vowel) - Donnal (think of the m as silent) :)
mac Alpine is a rather large construction firm
Where does Malcolm I of Scotland fit into the line of succession?
i am too afraid of downloading a viking,and being attacked in my sleep,i wonder if the vikings ever perceived that they would be downloaded one day.
By the way, the dislike button is just a cute image. Of course it doesn't work. Nice work !
If it’s not PICT....... it’s CRRRRAP !
What was the Ethnicity of the Picts? Another Ethnic group within the Scots? Welsh?
Probably British. The language issue is a huge one, with no one seeming to agree on the matter. I tend to think it was a related Celtic language.
Welsh and Wales have no relevance 🇬🇧 not even in the flag 🥳
0.45 seconds "The mainland"?
That bagpipe music at the beginning isn't on the list.
Coom-Ra Bass Alpin, Remember the death of Alpin, Battle call of the, Soil Alpin, Kenith McAlpin.
Some years ago I did read (lost source), that because Constantine II was educated in Ireland he spoke more Gaelic and the people followed their king causing the decline of the Pictish language. Any comments?
I also read a few historians who suspected this
Dal Riata was a powerful Irish kingdom, established in the west of Scotland in the 5th century, and maybe as early as the 1st century. The Picts had been in close contact with Irish culture for centuries by the time of Constantine. Dal Riata broke away from Irish over-lordship in the 7th century. And this is when the notion of Scotland as a national identity, defined by geography, began to form. The Gaelic culture was not aggressive, but it was highly literate and left a good record of itself. The Picts didn't write. And so when they went into alliance with the Gaelic kings their identity was absorbed into the character of Gaelic Scotland. IMHO.
He fled there when he was young - he had family there. Read "History of Scotland" by Neil Oliver
@@paulduffy4585 so you think before the supposed time of the dal riada the inhabits of Scotland and ireland just didn't mingle? The first mention of the picts in recorded history is along side the scots
@@jacktravers5049 Pictland and Dalriada existed side by side for centuries. Maybe from the Ist century. It's possible that genocide by the Romans left a vacuum in the west of Scotland that Irish colonizers then stepped into.
Absolutely amazing! End, of curse the "amazing" chanel hopes to be talent as serious....ore credibile. It's a little bit dificult after the monumental owngoal of the clip's title.
Can you do a video on why the scots left Northern Ireland aka ulster for Caledonia aka Scotland
cant do that because the scots never came from ireland
@@brucecollins4729 how do you know that and I have a question for you my question is where did the Scott’s come from because I read that they came from Northern Ireland and the Hebrides
that is just a theory based on myth,nothing else. years of research by scots and irish historians and archeologists can find no factual or physical evidence to support that. as i said, look up the origins of scots and irish gaels on irish origenes for a more realistic and believable account.@@chasemurraychristopherdola7108
they colonised Northern Ireland (Ulster Scots).
@@brucecollins4729 Then why did the language change from P to Q Celtic?
I love how the overpowering arrogance of the Saxon dictator was entirely destroyed almost before his bones were cold in his grave. I used to be fascinated by Athelstan, bit the more I get to know about him, the more appalling and psychotic he becomes. The people of Britain must have celebrated in high style when he died.
That's my name and I'm Greek. I wonder why a Scottish king has a name associated with the rulers in Byzantium. Who was his mother?
It was nearly a 1000 years after the birth of christianity and over 1300 since Caesars invasion of Britain . Both the bible and Rome were filled with Greek culture. So Its pretty obvious where we got influences from when you think about it.
24:25 True but misleading. The life expectancy may have been 30 but that was due to very high infant mortality. If you made it to 21, odds were good that you'd make it to 60.
Hahahahahaha. I am Greek. I am a Nationalist and very good in my country's history! One of the last remain :'( Ι love all European history . So i see Constantine 2nd and thinking wtf? Maybe he was a very early "pro"-varangian wanted to be baptized as Christian or something. Lets click this loooool. Nice channel mate! Nice video as well! And we do have some "myths" out there about origins of Scots...Greeks love Scots actually!
Can you expand on these myths please? I'd love to hear them.
Mate nice content but just 7 mins in to the video and u already promoted 2 things, can't you leave it for the end?
I don't usually have sponsors or ads in videos. But occasionally mans gotta eat!
@@HistoryTime i feel you but maybe you could do 1 at the start and 1 at the end?
The History channel series on the Vikings said Ivar the boneless was impotent.
Also has him riding into battle on a chariot..
@@HistoryTime Ivar riding a chariot into battle seems more likely than him having grandchildren. You could even theorize that his impotence was the reason for him being "Boneless" .
You just blew my mind
The vikings serie is historically incorrect a lot of times, the impotence ones was just a theory, the only certain thing its that the ui imar of dublin always claimed that they descend from Ivar the Boneless
No one knows for sure now.
The real story is in the Paris national library
eochaid is pronounced like "jocky" @history time
