ASMR Map of Ancient Middle East 0-50AD from 1912

[@osims95]

Top level content! One of the best history asmr artists out there. Glad to see you back.

[@NathanASMR]

Olly I truly appreciate that. It means a lot to hear the compliment as well as having your continued support for my channel! Its heartwarming and I am honored to know you are enjoying my historical content especially! It is one of my biggest passions, and I only wish I had a more formal background in History, but I a philosophy guy for a long time! 😂 I'm going to be churning out a ton more history videos this month, though the next video is the Science of ASMR, so will have a more scientific angle (though I'll probably figure out a way to add history as well)! Have a great weekend Olly and truly thank you.

[@idlewildasmr3461]

This was tremendous, your commentary/narration provided lots of interesting information and was relaxing as always! It actually took me about 3 tries to get through this because I fell asleep a couple times. Now under normal circumstances that probably wouldn't be a compliment, but seeing as this is ASMR it just means you did your job superbly! Welcome back, Nathan, I'm glad you've returned! 😃🤝

[@NathanASMR]

Danny that means so much man. Its been really great getting to know you through the community and having your support is truly awesome. Plus your videos are really great as well. I am really glad to be back and I do admit my videos are ridiculously long, so its hard to get through everything in one go. But it has some replay value haha. I hope that you have a really great day and weekend, unfortunately I am stuck at a job training situation all weekend ugh!!

[@abeatter8308]

Honestly don’t even get tingles that much any more usually vids are relaxing but the off the cuff nature of your vids/ “script” are great, just enjoying the content and whispers really, so thanks! (P.s I listen out-loud on my phone and this still gave tingles)

[@NathanASMR]

Hey there Abe, thats the biggest of compliments. I also love ASMR as a fan too and so I know the feeling you are talking about. I try to be a bit Holden Caufield with my videos and just go off on as many tangents as possible because I feel like the details really can set the scene. I do write out a very detailed script but I usually will read a ton, maybe two weeks minimum of research so that I'm well versed on the subject and able to speak on those things! Your comment really made my day and its so great to hear this as a creator. I have another video coming out tomorrow which will be very similar to this but talking about Southern Africa specifically a map of Zimbabwe. Anyway thanks again Abe and have a really great weekend coming up!

[@SomeReadingsASMR]

So this is the first time i've properly sat down to watch your channel. I am already extremely impressed. Thank you so much for making this awesome content. I am going to have to sleep in a few minutes, but I shall return and watch the rest of the video soon! again this is awesome thank you.

[@NathanASMR]

Hey there SomeReading, I truly appreciate that man. I noticed your channel has some very impressive and interesting videos as well. Especially noticed those videos on Stoicism. I'm more of an epicurean but its hard not to appreciate the stoicists and their "command" over certain human qualities! Definitely will be checking out the Meditation of Marcus Aurelius as well. There are only a few history related ASMR channels so its really great to connect more. Most of my stuff is history, maps, and some random stuff once a blue moon. Anyway man, hope you have a really great week and thanks again for the kind words. Looking forward to spending more time watching your stuff as well.

[@SomeReadingsASMR]

@@NathanASMR thank you heaps! Yea epicureanism is quite interesting, though I have to say I have not read much of it yet :( I hopefully will be able to soon though!! Thank you so much for your amazing words, I hope you enjoy the videos! I definitely am surprised at the quality and research that goes into your videos, am excited to find more!

[@NathanASMR]

@@SomeReadingsASMR Basically its focus is on enjoying the good life but with some aspects of stoicism. It isn't hedonism but I think it takes away the hard edge of stoicism by giving that focus on the "good life". Thats my one issue with stoics is ultimately it seem like almost a punishing philosophical view of the world. I try to take the values of the stoics and at the end throw a bit of epicurean "good life" to view things in a more appreciative and positive way. Big generalizations but thats sort of how I see it. I spend about 3 days of research per video, which usually includes some preexisting knowledge of the subject! I only wish I had the knowledge of a true professional historian so I could really speak from a place of expertise rather than as a "hobbyist"! Have a great week man, and see you at another premiere soon as well!

[@asmryousittingcomfortably3348]

Hi Nathan! Cannot wait to watch this video, tingles from the first couple of lines alone!

[@NathanASMR]

Thank you so much man. I really appreciate that. I think we might draw some ASMRinspiration from similar artists so that makes sense. Map videos are the best🤣 I truly appreciate you coming to watch and I have no doubt your channel will do great as well. Have a great evening

More like this, please! Been looking all over for ASMR like this, thank you!

[@NathanASMR]

Hey there and thank you so much Cat Man! I am so glad you enjoyed it! My next video will be a map video about 1800s Paris and will be very similar to this one! I have about 6 other maps I plan to record videos for in the very near future! After Paris is two maps from Japan in the 1800s! I hope you will swing by then! In the meantime I truly do appreciate it and I am very glad to take requests or ideas! Have a great night Car Man!

@@mancat4840 That means a lot to hear that! Thank you so much. I have a ton of ASMR history ideas and I might throw in a couple gaming videos here and there but history/maps and that sort of thing are the primary focus on my channel! So glad you enjoyed and hope you have a really great Sunday!

These videos are now my new favourite, they satisfy the nerd in me, and they are GREAT ASMR 😍 please don't ever stop doing them 🤩 Thank you for all your efforts

Welcome Alya! Thank you so much for the kind words. That really means a lot to me! I have an inner nerd too, so I love history ASMR! I am so glad you also enjoy it. I will continue making ASMR for a long time and I'm so glad to help people relax and also share in the joys of history and sound. Trust me, its one of my favorite things to do now. Also, one day when things are more stable over there I'd love to visit Syria as well. It has so much history and also the food is amazing over there. I hope you have a great weekend and shukraan!

[@potatopotahto4500]

This is the channel I’ve been waiting for ! Asmr and history!? Keep it coming man! Would love some medieval history!

[@NathanASMR]

Hi there Potato or should I say Potahto?! 🤣 Thank you so so much and welcome! My main focus is history ASMR with a few other things (travel, science, basic triggers, and maps) as well! I'm about to release a video on the science of ASMR very shortly! After that I will gladly take that request and do some medieval history! I am a HUGEEEEEE fan of medieval history and 100% i'll do it this month! The difficulty is medieval times were quite difficult and I dont want to get too deep into the societal issues while trying to help people relax with ASMR. Perhaps a medieval roleplay of a king back then? I've got a couple maps lined up for that time period as well, which also might be a safe route! So glad to welcome you to my channel and thanks for the suggestion! Its comments like these that really keep me excited to make more and more content plus history is my fuel! Please feel free to add more suggestions if you think of any! Have a great day!

I was going to head back this month but I'm unsure whether I should travel for a few months due to the public health stuff going on. That said, I am making a trip for sure this year and I need to make a big hike somewhere in some Redwoods. In my college they made me take 4 semesters of Biblical Literature (Catholic University) so I ended up appreciating the history behind the scenes. Just to imagine being in the world of the Ancient Middle East would be amazing. And yeah despite this video, compared to a real historian my knowledge of this time period is that of an ant 😂 And thank you so much for the kind words!

This is so wonderfully eccentric

[@NathanASMR]

VAULT TECH! Hey there! Great to see your comment on this video. Wonderfully eccentric is a huge compliment in a field (ASMR) that is saturated with so many different creators, styles, and ideas. I try to harness my inner Holden Caulfield and just flow with the information as I see it. I enjoy sharing my "thought process" and "sense of wonder" because I come from a journalistic background and not a historian background. So in a way I'm on the journey with you all, which probably comes off a bit eccentric. That said I do writeup like 15-40 pages of research for most of these videos, and this one was only second to my Paris video in terms of amount of information.

I live in the north Jordan, my great father moved from the syrian part of batanea/auranitis region to the Jordanian part in 1700s, but we still have relatives in the syrian part. Anyway, yes I have visited many archeoligical places like Jerasa, watched the great roman theatres, bella, jordan river where jesus was christed. Also I have visited the ammonite city (Amman the capital of Jordan), there on the citadel you may see the ammonite ancient houses, ammonite king statues. Also in the musuem you see the oldest-in-the-world statues of ain ghazal, which were found in Jordan, saw mesha stele from moabite kingdom. Plannig to visit the black desert where the oldest bread (pita) was found from the natufian culture in the northeastern Jordan. I have visited the nabatean city Petra many times. Visited the yarmuk river and watched the sea of galilee, but can't visit it, since it's occupied by israel. Also I'd love to visit the Syrian part as soon as the unfortunate war finishs there,beside many other places in Jordan. I wish to visit palestine as the political status allows. You're welcome to visit Jordan, am sure you'll like it :)

@@bilalbataineh8367 Thank you so much for the response Bilal. That is so freaking cool. I am so jealous that you are able to see such amazing historical places. I live here in Florida where everything was or will be underwater haha. We do have some historical parts here (1800's) and of course the Native American presence was strong here as well. But we dont have anything like those great buildings and pieces of ancient civilization! You are truly lucky to be able to see those. Petra must have been truly magical. When I go to places like that I try to just imagine the people walking through the streets, the colors, sights, and sounds that must have existed back then. I wish to travel to that region one day very soon. My girlfriend is from Iran, and I have always dreamed of a trip to visit there too, also Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon all sound amazing plus the food looks so delicious too. I hope when things get back to normal with the pandemic I can travel to these places soon. Have a very peaceful weekend and its been a pleasure to chat with you. Now I have thoughts of being in Ancient Damascus when it was a great city linking the Silk Road and Rome. What a magical time.

I'm still watching!! I just got to 50 min 😁

Scarlet!!! So good to see you. I hope that you are doing really well and that you've been enjoying our fabulous weather. I was recently exploring a few cool places around here and I was shocked at how amazing some of the places around here are outside of the typical tourist spots!! I need to go checkout some of your most recent video as well! Have a great week and looking forward to chatting soon!

[@rshake4]

hi! can you talk about the history of palestine to bring awareness to what’s happening in palestine right now?

[@NathanASMR]

Hi there! I'd love to do a video like that. Are you thinking like a video talking about Ancient Palestine or like History going into modern times? I absolutely would love to explore more maps of the area and discuss even more in depth. The history is so complicated and goes back so far I think it would make a really cool video! Thank you so much for this suggestion and I will definitely try to make it happen. I agree its such an important issue. Have a really great evening!

[@idontknowwhattonamethischa4362]

Please don’t forget Kuwait

[@NathanASMR]

Hi Yousef! I will be doing another map video of the other parts of the middle east! This video was focused more around the history of ancient kingdoms in modern day Syria, Palestine, Lebanon, and Israel. I plan to do a much larger video talking about the history of Mesopotamia, and also the history of modern day Iran, Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan, UAE, Qatar, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia. There is just so much cool history to talk about, I had to split it into multiple videos! Thank you so much for the suggestion though and I will absolutely be including Kuwait in a future video! Have a great week!

*Korea*

[@NathanASMR]

hahaha yeah I am so glad you saw that!!!! IN all honesty I spent an hour searching all records for a ancient city named Korea in the middle east but I think I just got trolled by the map creators probably ahaha. Its possible though that there was a town that sounded like that? I had a lot of trouble finding out so I'm guessing its an error. Hilarious though.

[@NathanASMR]

even more strange is that its showing up on that map even though its from a legitimate university so who knows the story on that one! Maybe somebody who watches will know more!

And one question: Are you Jewish by any chance? P.S Nathan is a Jewish name in the state of Israel

[@3174jason]

Shhhh, Don't wake up the listeners. Just my 2 cents but, You Shouldn't whisper. Using a Soft voice is okay. But whispering so low that I hear your lip is where I lose interest.

[@NathanASMR]

All things considered this is one of my earlier videos so I do ask for some understanding about the content creator learning curve in terms of production and on camera presence. I think since this video I've made big improvements. That said, many people like whispering ASMR. I personally enjoy whispering mixed in with soft spoken, which is why I do it that way. A good example of another ASMRtist who does this is LatteASMR. I think you do make a point that maybe I should do "only whispered" or "only soft spoken" videos for people who only like one or the other. To be fair if I had to choose one, I would also choose soft spoken. I think from an artistic standpoint it is important to do a style that matches your own personal tastes because you need to enjoy the art you create to continue to make it. And while I wish you had worded your comment a bit more politely, at the end of the day, I do appreciate your feedback, and I will be sure to keep it in mind for future videos. Have a great weekend.

[@NathanASMR]

Also the more you remove the lip/mouth sounds the more it sounds like a radio show and "overproduced." I come from a radio background and I would never do this stuff from a production standpoint in a radio broadcast. But in ASMR lo-fi actually does add to the authenticity of the experience for many people, and most importantly I find that mouth sounds add a bit of dynamic that many prefer. I actually think its quite rare to find ASMR channels that edit those sounds out. I can only think of one off the top of my head. Perhaps they are a bit too aggressive in this particular video but anyway I wanted to just throw that out there because I do try to balance the needs of all the listeners of the channel! Thanks for hearing me out and have a good one.

[@3174jason]

@@NathanASMR your right. I did have bad choice of words. And at the end of the day I edited it. You do have great content. I guess you are the 1st channel I've seen with your style. I do hope you stay safe and well in the future. ✌️

[@NathanASMR]

@@3174jason Between you and me the videos I did in the beginning are a bit rough around the edges LOL. I've since upgraded my equipment significantly and a lot of those mouth sounds and rigid camera presence have been improved dramatically. So I dont blame you for pointing it out honestly. And I really appreciate you saying that and also rewording the comment really means a lot. You didn't have to do that but you did, and thats the sign of a good heart. Hope to see you around the channel in the future and I also hope you have a great Sunday and a safe awesome week ahead. Sending peace and love Tomorrow Morning!
