[@nycthinklab966]

thank you for your service! thank you sharing these historical photos. demonstrates the power of these cultural sites. how they have withstood the test of time . the thousands of warriors who fought in their shadows....

[@lostrod]

I have added several other videos based on more recent trips to that part of the world. I was able to visit several historical sites in Jordan last year and created some videos that folks might be interested in. I created a new channel called Virtual Heartland specifically for those. I you search KZbin for Virtual Heartland you will find them.

Hey Rod, thanks for your service and also for capturing this magnificent footage, if interested I'd love to use possible video footage that you may have of ancient Mesopotamian sites. I'd happily provide attribution. Thanks for your time!

[@lostrod]

@@studyofantiquityandthemidd4449 Hi! Thanks for the offer. Do you have a way to share the video? I’m bogged down with work projects so it may be a few months before can tackle new KZbin projects.

[@shawkitty2524]

Wonderful footage! Thanks for sharing!

[@fidelcatsro6948]

Magnificient! I hope you also recovered the DeWalt electric hammer tool Abraham (peace be upon him) used to destroy the large idols!

Land of Ur of the Chaldees/Chaldeans , The garden of Eden is in Iraq either it has been destroyed or its under the marshes there , either way it's still there Ada an Ewe came from that area . Abraham the father of the Israelites also travel from that area toward the Land of Canaan.

İbrahim (pbuh) is father of both İsmail and isac peace be upon them. He is not the father of jews. Isaac is the father of jews. And ismal is the father of Arabs, Muslims

@@safeamer1313 Thank you for your correction.

[@BadassBikerOwns]

@@safeamer1313 all this is nonsense. There's no real evidence that a figure called Abraham existed, or that he came from Ur of Mesopotamia. It is more likely that the authors of the Bible (and later adapted by Koran) have created a composite figure of ancient history.

ان الروايه الاكثر اهميه ان ابو ابراهيم عليه السلام مدفون في بقعه مربعه بحيث يعطي للمكان اكثر قدسيه وهذا ما كنا نعبر به مرارا من المكان لا يجوز الحفر والتنقيب وهذا هو القصد المكان له قدسيه دينيه واخلاقيه اذ من غير المقبول حفر لعله قبور اولياء الله الصالحين هذا اهم ما في لامر

Aboustely astounding! However should have traditional Iraq Music playing not this Latin non sense. Please give these people credit, your DNA came from them!

[@lostrod]

You are absolutely correct, sir! Please understand that at the time I did this video I was deployed with limited resources. Be assured that I will investigate whether I can replace the existing soundtrack with something more appropriate. Hopefully, this can be accomplished without having reset all the views and comments. If I have to recreate the slideshow with a new soundtrack can you make any recommendations for music and where it can be acquired? Thank you for your comments.

[@muhammadel-dharrat961]

Rod Hammack I believe my words were abit harsh, Thank you for your reply. I will have a double check but it is usually guitar based instruments. Otherwise looking forward to any updated videos you may have!

@@Jhossack you may write whatever you want, but I wrote base on religion and reason. same like the pyramid of egypt. God never leave the pyramid without any reason.
