Correcting My First King Philip's War Video

[@AtunSheiFilms]

I recently started a playlist with all my King Philip's War videos presented in chronological order, and I eventually hope to build it into a visual chronicle of the entire conflict. Watch it here: kzbin.info/aero/PLwCiRao53J1zC_zUgjuB7hIVreGthh9nF

Props to wearing the same outfit for continuity purposes

[@Grizabeebles]

Thank you for the corrections. And for doing this series in the first place. One thing that's always confused and concerned me ever since I first discovered it is the "List of wars involving the United States" on Wikipedia. The U.S. seems almost allegic to the concept of "peaceful coexistence" in a way that other countries (even the ones "born in the fires of Revolution") rarely do. For over 90% of the years there has been a "United States", the U.S. has been fighting an almost continuous series of wars. Your _King Philip's War_ series sometimes seems to me like I'm finally being told out about the early childhood trauma that started a boy down the path to becoming that angry guy at the end of the bar who spends the whole night waiting for the chance to pick a fight. Then again, maybe I'm projecting because I'm from Canada and our national history is being the smarmy little brother in the top bunk who still gets along with Mom and Dad.

In regards to the pronunciation of Wampanoag - I am a member of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe and many of us pronounce it the way you did in your original video, including myself. Its actually a pretty heavily debated topic lol. Frankly, its been lost to time what was the "real" pronunciation so we can only speculate. To many, Wamp-Uh-No-Ag is preferred because it sounds more similar to how we believe the word was pronounced in our language, Wôpanâak (pronounced Woh-pan-ah-ack). To me, there is no right or wrong since we don't actually know for sure how it used to be pronounced. And regardless of how it used to be pronounced, languages change and evolve with time so what is old does not make it right in the current times. So don't feel bad about the pronunciation! We can't even decide ourselves lol

@@eric8381 not to speak for the above comment, but from a European POV the USA has a specific character as a country with a great deal of confidence and a lack of hindsight for its history, so seeing some of the bloodier actions that formed the national character speaks a lot to both the idea of 'manifest destiny' and also the seeming arrogance of US 'freedom'

What you said about the forts the natives had in comparison to what the colonists built sort of reminded me of the arms and armor in this war (way to be into what really matters, right?). You might assume at first blush that the English had a technological advantage with their firearms and steel plate armor. But the truth is, by the time of King Philip's War both sides were using much the same equipment. Most Indian warriors by that point were using flintlock muskets or carbines obtained through trade with Europeans. They were also now tending to use steel melee weapons (which included swords, rapier blades fastened to the end of a pike, and hatchets). On the New England colonist side, they replaced their matchlock muskets and pikes for flintlock muskets more rapidly than their counterparts did in Europe. No longer were they armored, as they already figured out that they could just dodge Indian arrows as long as they weren't caught by surprise; plus, the Indians were all now using guns, so armor was useless anyway. They also now preferred hatchets & knives for close quarters combat to the swords they used earlier in the century, and came to adopt the Indians' tactics in warfare (traditional European military tactics at the time didn't lend themselves so well in a forest). In short, both sides of the war used the same weapons and tactics, adopting these from each other. It really came down to the fact that the English had a tendency for total warfare, and their supply lines to England ensured that the New England colonists could ruthlessly and relentlessly bring their tactics to bear. Thank you for attending my TedxTalk (read: stupid ramble).

So the settlers were just speaking the King's English. Even before Disneyfication of media I still though a castle should be a stone fortress.

[@civilwarwildwest]

These correction and self-response videos you've been doing lately are excellent. This is real history. Our knowledge of the subject matter evolves and it's up to the honest historian to correct himself if he expects to be able to critique the work of others. I just finished writing a correction video myself. I'm glad people are starting to watch my documentaries but I cringe knowing some of them have errors. And while I'm lucky it's mostly lost causers with a bunch of nonsense, sooner or later someone I respect is gonna notice and say something.

I'd love to see him write a short history of Metacomet's War - as he points out, the definitive history of the conflict is 50-60 years old now and overdue for a fresh look. If Mike Duncan can turn his podcasts into a couple of books, Atun Shei can certainly do likewise.

Wow has it been four years already?!

All filmmakers grow over time, and historians should learn more over time as well (even if this, unfortunately, is not always the case...), which means as a historical filmmaker you're pulling double duty. Factually, as an introduction to a section of history barely spoken about, this video does a lot to draw attention to both sides of the conflict and the lasting and deep effect it had on the American psyche and how it set the template for a lot of relations with the first people's for hundreds of years to come. You should be super proud of that.

He never occupied the hill but his son did and built a house there . this location was just up the road from Dr; Jacobs house n which on on the shore of a pond named after him. the natives called the area assinnippi , which means "rocky water".

I cannot agree more heartily on the sound design and music for the first video. The raid sequence genuinely took me aback. When we discuss the violence of past wars, its easy to get used to the descriptions of pure carnage. This....stopped me. I hope to replicate this feeling for my DnD players one day

Always good to see updates on old content when new information comes to the surface or you realize that it’s needed I would love to see something like this for the creek wars
