Why did garum disappear so completely from European cooking?

This was a superb program. Prof Chandler does an excellent job explaining Charlemagne's central role in establishing institutions that got the best of Roman institutions across the line to the proto-modern institutions of Western civilization.

Wonderful channel, thank you!

Why didn't the Frankish kings put a value on literacy? As Charlamagne was illiterate.

Interesting and fun! Thank you

Thank you so much, loved it 🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

25 minutes into this documentary Mike Loads actually trains a shield wall militia using around 50 raw recruits. 39 minutes in they are in action. Check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/apWmc4CEeKqAf6s&ab_channel=RogerCollins

My kids think it is 'the f word' because I told them it was when they asked.

The movie had such a low budget, they couldn’t afford horses. So they parodied their own cheapness by using coconuts.

If you were an average working person in the kingdom of Jerusalem, what was the housing situation? Were there houses for the taking? Would it be a stone tenement building? Curious as I am writing a work of fiction based in 12th century Jerusalem with a character who is the son of a first crusader around the time of the second crusade, 1144. Any illumination (or marginalia) would be appreciated.

I'd make them less obnoxious and increase focus on transitions. I have no problem with ads, but it interrupting the podcast mid sentence makes me hate the add no matter what it is.

There are saints associated with southern Germany and the Alpine parts of Austria and Italy who experience the difficulty of travel on their pilgrimages towards Rome in the form of a wild bear. St Romedius has his riding animal eaten by a bear. He promptly tames the bear, puts saddle and tack on him and uses the without a doubt very befuddled bear as a new riding animal. I don't know if that counts as travel hardship as saintly, but it sure is amazing. Edit: I forgot to write that the same story is attributed to Lucanus of Säben, Corbinius of Freising and Maximinius of Trier.

Hey Professor I just have to say, I adored this podcast, your enthusiasm was totally endearing. I never knew I could care so much about medieval fish habits. Thanks Danielle for hosting, as always. Great work.

Restoration is beautiful. Another beautiful Iranian item discovered in Great Britain. At least they are able to restore and make it beautiful again.

Venetian power and wealth came from the spice trade from India... in 1498 when the Portuguese established a sea route to India, ended the Venetian/Arabs monopoly and started their decline. The battle of Diu in 1509 made it clear, where the Portuguese fought a joint fleet of the Egyptian Mamluks, Gujarat Sultanate, Zamorin and Venetians and won in an epic fashion...it was the beginning of globalisation.

Thank you.

The Ottomans were really becoming an imperial power. Their ability to engage in multiple military engagements and some successful & some not so much reminds one of Romes' ability to wear down opponents. And the Ottomans did this time & time again. Make treaties with enemies and set European kingdoms against each other. They were using their military to conduct high-level political craft work to carve out territories for their expansion.

Was not Familiar with this naval battle! 👍 ⚓️

.Thank you.

I love how this battle is used to show how poorly trained and low intelligent the French knights were. I've never trusted that theory.

Thank you, most enjoyable. I’m not sure anyone was doing the right thing back then. Well, guess we aren’t these days either so, who are we to judge 🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

Thank you.

Fascinating interview!

What nest of drones and traitors have I nourished and brought up in my household who would allow their noble lord to be treated with such shameful contempt by a low born cleric. ~ Henry II, probably.

Fine I'll go back to first episode on this battle prior to listening, love ya guys hope you guys keep Bow And Blade going for hell of a long time, plenty of awesome battles to cover. Thank you for the hard work

Awesome

I'd be interested to see what Dr Anthony says about the theory that "Mecca" isn't where Mohammed was originally from and that it was closer to the Roman border.

I would freak out if i could know what the deal is with this thing! My favorite theory is that somebody had a great sense of humor and decided to write a nonsense book just for fun. 😅

Any plans to do podcasts on the Swiss wars of independence?

When academia becomes reddit. Next up the intersectionality of Harry Potter and queer studies on medievalism.

Thanks!

Not to mention riding skill and planning.

This thing is so mysterious

Thank you! :)

Fantastic movie. The directors cut is overwhelming with the music. Entertainment it still is. 3 hrs max, they do what they can in 3 hrs

Wine purely for the antioxidants!!! Screw the hops!!!

👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

Getting mad about historical inaccuracies in this movie is like getting mad because a James Bond film is not historically correct. Is not a historical documentary, and is an entertaining film.

Thank you,

Great movie.

Thank you both so much, absolutely fascinating 🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

I'm from Tadcaster and there is local stories Harold godwinson camped here before heading to Stamford Bridge, would of thought there must be archaeological evidence buried here somewhere, wonder if anyone has ever looked?

Great Subject! 💙💙💙💙💙🦩✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

It could as well be a recount of economics and social history.

Should the Royal Armouries really feel the need to get rid of Prof. DeVries. Im sure the Royal Armories can find an apocryphal and rusty Iron Maiden, in a storeroom somewhere. We are only being polite, as Kelly's doctorate is from Canadian university.

A great episode!

Great work!!

Amon Amarth has a great song about this event!

Not many people know, but Arthurian legend actually has Iranian roots.
