If there's the same interest in this video as the 'Day in the Life of a Viking' video I'm happy to continue the series. Who would you want to see the day of? It can be anyone throughout history! (Within reason!)

[@mazzysmainframe]

Pretty much anyone else, to be honest. Neolithic and forward. Too many history communicators focus on the big picture of war and politics and all that but the daily lives of regular people throughout time and cultures are much more relatable and quite frankly, more interesting. This was a great video!

Id love to hear about the lives of lessor covered societies, because if you can teach me new things about stuff I've heard about before, then I know you've got the chops to wow folks with seldom covered societies! Thank you for such a wonderful script. Looking forward to more content from you

[@AI_Imagines_History]

@@morphias1008 Hey, thank you for the feedback. I will look to explore the Pict's society soon. I believe it's a lesser known society that may be of interest. I'll be taking the easy route for the next video and covering the life of a Roman Soldier in Britain as life is busy at the moment :)

Can you do a video about the celtic life and the ringfort thet lived in.

[@AI_Imagines_History]

Hey Evan, I’ll look in to it as I think it’d be a great idea for ‘A day in the life’ video. I haven’t done one in a while!

[@evangannon5394]

@@AI_Imagines_History brilliant. The thatched roubdhouse/ringforts are very interesting

[@AI_Imagines_History]

@@evangannon5394 I have one video in the works at the moment, but once that is done I will begin work on a ring fort video :)

[@safeysmith6720]

@@AI_Imagines_HistoryI’ve been researching the interior of Anglo-Saxon/Norse drinking halls and their royal residences and “palaces”. In the same vein, I’ve been trying to find out more of how the Irish kings’ residences/palaces/ring fortresses were like, in the same period. I’m interested in understanding the interior layouts. Things like “were there upstairs portions?” or “did the chieftains or kings have their own private sections, or did they just sleep on the benches with everyone else? Sadly info on these things is surprisingly lacking. I’ve been hoping someone would make a KZbin video or documentary about something like this, but nobody has really.

[@silliaek]

Apparently there were only four women for every hundred men

[@AI_Imagines_History]

That’s unbelievable 😂

AI art is pretty dope lol

[@AI_Imagines_History]

Thanks austyn, most of it is terrible and gets disregarded. I try to choose the best!

I guess this is pre-Norman invasion

[@AI_Imagines_History]

Absolutely

[@frans8160]

Weren’t anglo saxons germans ?

[@AI_Imagines_History]

Originally

[@modernoverman]

Anglo-Saxons came from modern day Germany and Denmark.

[@AI_Imagines_History]

@@modernoverman you’re correct I can’t explain myself.
