I am not sure it is correct to call Cucuteni-Trypillia culture peaceful. They had quite a lot of weapons - not only bows, arrows and javelins, that can be used both for hunting and for war, but also stone maces, stone and copper war axes, copper daggers and so on, and their settlements were fortified. It is likely that the fights happened mostly between different groups within this culture and not against their neighbours of different cultures.

[@scythianking7315]

Yeah, they were extremely violent, as were all the Agricultural societies of Western Europe(Pre-Indo Europeans). It's modern Femenist propaganda that claims they were all peaceful Matriarchal hippies until the evil "Patriarchal" Indo-Europeans came. Any serious Anthropologist knows this

[@viktorbaraga4514]

I think you are correct, only the timeline differ. As far as I read on the subject, It was , Lepenski Vir, Vinca or Danube civilization 7000 BC that lived in well developed civilization, with first metallurgy, Copper, tin ,bronze., stationary farming, meliorations, calendar and script. All that, yet no weapons or gold etc. was ever found ,before 3000 BC. Then yes, the richest grave in Varna , Bulgaria was found to date bronze weapons, gold , precious stones.....,but no tools for farming. Yes after that the first metal weapons and cities with fortification , patriarchal society, very nonegalitarian, fractured society. This is how The War was invented. War ?

@@viktorbaraga4514 similar thoughts, no one can prove this true or false.. 7/8000 BC first civilization on Danube, living peacefully, trading, first fishermans on Lepenski Vir, developing agriculture, metalurgy, but no signs of warfare. Different tombs and rituals than in 4/3000 BC when they begin to build fortifications, obviously defeated by patriarchal "group" and they brought different culture but still didn't kill all of these matriarchal farmers, but, like neanderthals and homosapiens, they developed a new culture, which is seen from 3000 BC further on, branching into proto Iberians, Celts, Illyrians etc. But, proto-Indo-Europeans, were first Europeans, in my theory.. From Europe they traveled all the way to Indus valley, spreading knowledge of agriculture and all that fancy stuff (no warfare), met the Indus valley culture which were shorter and had darker skin, they looked like giants to them (Aryans), got attacked from the early nomadic tribes, after which some groups traveled back to Europe, some stayed in Iran...

Meanwhile, the church kept a secret list of over 700 offenders. The list was even kept secret from most of the church's leaders. This new report was commissioned by the Southern Baptist Convention in response to a series of articles investigating widespread sexual abuse in the church. The series titled "Abuse Of Faith" was published in 2019 after a six-month investigation by a team of reporters from the Houston Chronicle and the San Antonio Express-News, a team headed by John Tedesco and my guest Robert Downen, a reporter for the Houston Chronicle. The reporters found that hundreds of Southern Baptist Convention church leaders and volunteers had been criminally charged with sex crimes since 2000. The series also detailed numerous incidents in which denominational leaders mishandled, ignored or concealed warnings that Southern Baptist churches were being targeted by predators.

Let me clarify a little. The domestic horse was tamed in the area between the Dnieper and Don rivers more than 7,000 years ago by the “Sredny Stogov” culture; from this culture came the Yamnaya culture and the culture of Corded ceramics and battle axes. From Yamnaya came the Greeks, Italics and Celts and other southern Europeans. From the Battle Ax culture, which occupied the north and east of Europe, came the Germans, Slavs and Balts, and Sintashta also separated from them, who moved from the upper Volga to the Southern Urals, where they invented the spoked wheel and war chariots, and from there they expanded into Iran and India.

[@flahartyc23]

​@@zagrepcanin82 The roots of Cucuteni-Trypillia culture can be found in the Starčevo-Körös-Criș and Vinča cultures of the 6th to 5th millennia,[7] with additional influence from the Bug-Dniester culture (6500-5000 BC).[21] During the early period of its existence (in the fifth millennium BC), the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture was also influenced by the Linear Pottery culture from the north, and by the Boian culture from the south.[7] Through colonisation and acculturation from these other cultures, the formative Pre-Cucuteni/Trypillia A culture was established. Over the course of the fifth millennium, the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture expanded from its 'homeland' in the Prut-Siret region along the eastern foothills of the Carpathian Mountains into the basins and plains of the Dnieper and Southern Bug rivers of central Ukraine.[22] Settlements also developed in the southeastern stretches of the Carpathian Mountains, with the materials known locally as the Ariușd culture (see also: Prehistory of Transylvania). Most of the settlements were located close to rivers, with fewer settlements located on the plateaus. Most early dwellings took the form of pit-houses, though they were accompanied by an ever-increasing incidence of above-ground clay houses.[22] The floors and hearths of these structures were made of clay, and the walls of clay-plastered wood or reeds. Roofing was made of thatched straw or reeds. The inhabitants were involved with animal husbandry, agriculture, fishing and gathering. Wheat, rye and peas were grown. Tools included ploughs made of antler, stone, bone and sharpened sticks. The harvest was collected with scythes made of flint-inlaid blades. The grain was milled into flour by quern-stones. Women were involved in pottery, textile- and garment-making, and played a leading role in community life. Men hunted, herded the livestock, made tools from flint, bone and stone.[citation needed] Of their livestock, cattle were the most important, with swine, sheep and goats playing lesser roles. The question of whether or not the horse was domesticated during this time of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture is disputed among historians; horse remains have been found in some of their settlements, but it is unclear whether these remains were from wild horses or domesticated ones. Clay statues of females and amulets have been found dating to this period. Copper items, primarily bracelets, rings and hooks, are occasionally found as well. A hoard of a large number of copper items was discovered in the village of Cărbuna, Moldova, consisting primarily of items of jewelry, which were dated back to the beginning of the fifth millennium BC. Some historians have used this evidence to support the theory that a social stratification was present in early Cucuteni culture, but this is disputed by others.[7] Pottery remains from this early period are very rarely discovered; the remains that have been found indicate that the ceramics were used after being fired in a kiln. The outer colour of the pottery is a smoky grey, with raised and sunken relief decorations. Toward the end of this early Cucuteni-Trypillia period, the pottery begins to be painted before firing. The white-painting technique found on some of the pottery from this period was imported from the earlier and contemporary (5th millennium) Gumelnița-Karanovo culture. Historians point to this transition to kiln-fired, white-painted pottery as the turning point for when the Pre-Cucuteni culture ended and Cucuteni Phase (or Cucuteni-Trypillia culture) began.[7] Cucuteni and the neighbouring Gumelnița-Karanovo cultures seem to be largely contemporary; the "Cucuteni A phase seems to be very long (4600-4050) and covers the entire evolution of the Gumelnița-Karanovo A1, A2, B2 phases (maybe 4650-4050)."[23]

And that the Aesir-Vanir war is a metaphor for something that happened in real life. Because the Aesir gods are often not connected to the boat cult as you say, and the Aesir gods have similarities to some Greek and Roman gods, thus conceivably showing an ancient connection that has its roots in the horse riding peoples of the steppes.

One of the more intriguing and hotly debated aspects of the Danube Valley civilization is their supposed written language. Harald Haarmann, a German linguistic and cultural scientist, currently vice-president of the Institute of Archaeomythology, and leading specialist in ancient scripts and ancient languages, firmly supports the view that the Danube script is the oldest writing in the world. The tablets that were found -Tărtăria tablets in Romania - are dated to 5,500 BC, and the glyphs on the tablets, according to Haarmann, are a form of language yet to be deciphered.

And Russian mercenaries, didn't even use horses effectively, they just walked and talked their way to Siberia, which was occupied by healthy indigenous folks and nomads, and still it took centuries less than the Yamnaya.

It seems like at any point from this era here onwards, some of the most brutal and effective "armies" (or however you want to categorize groups of fighters) were all from the Steppe: Scythians, Parthians, Huns, Mongols. Though i wonder how well they performed, relatively speaking, as the enemies they faced started to field more effective cavalry. The only era that i have anything more than a passing awareness of is the Roman Era, and for vast majority of their time in the limelight they were mostly infantry based armies. Their cavalry was used more to harry the flanks, scout and run down fleeing soldiers.

1) I had never heard of the Cucuteni culture, so thank you for that information 2) How do you define 'civilization'? There are specific characteristics for that. In a video like that I would have started with the definition, and then see if the Cucuteni fit the definition 3) The Cucuteni culture do not meet the definition for civilization. For example, one requirement is the presence of cities with highly developed cultural lifeways such as arts, entertainment, painting, music, and complex architecture. The presence of a written form of language is also a must. 4) The first civilization on European soil was that of Minoan Crete. This is not meant to put down the Cucuteni.

I can't take too seriously the illustrations of the super jacked dudes with long hair, dressed with leather pants and other leader accessories around their chest. I'm sure that living harsh lives in harsh lands, hunting, fighting, traveling many kilometers on foot, would make you very fit. It's hard to stay fat with so much activity and possibly not always abundance of food. But it's also hard to be that swole unless you live like we live today: never lacking healthy food, able to dedicate lots of time to exercising at any time of the day (day or night) and with all the muscle building knowledge we have today. Also, the cool, Conan the Barbarian like, leather attires: one thing that you find when exploring ancient aesthetics is that their idea of "cool looking" was often VERY different from ours. So, when the video is for educational purposes, I think it's more appropriate to go with accurate but sometimes silly looking illustrations, rather than stylized versions of ancient peoples.

Perhaps if they represented them with more body fat (like Thor in the last God of War) and less like a guy who does localized abdominal exercises with 300 reps a day. Like you said, they had what they needed to be huge and strong, but they lived messy lives compared with how we can live today. Did they measure time? Did they count their calorie intake?

A guy who digs ditches and stacks wood all day and eats almost all meat and dairy is going to look very ripped and muscular in short order. Maybe not Arnold big, but Henry Cavill big is very possible. Especially considering the bone structure these guys appeared to have. You're mixing good genes (by body building standards) with a high protein and high fat diet, and a lot of heavy labor. The result is going to be huge walking hulks of pure muscle.

Shoutout to HistoryMarche for suggesting this video.

[@blankspace998]

Great video! Thank you for popularising this topic! I'd like to explain a few moments about the geographical locations of Cucuteni-Trypillia and Yamnaya cultures. First of all, I suggest that the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture should be larger and more widespread on the map, as the Slavic part of the name of this culture - Trypillia comes from its namesake village where it was first discovered and is located several kilometers near Kyiv, and you came close to the depiction of that in your map. To the south, there is another site - Maydanetske and together with the Trypillia site they suggest to us that Cucuteni-Trypillia culture was spread at least up to the right banks of the Southern Bug and Dnieper rivers (excluding part of the steppe from the left bank of the Southern Bug to the Dnieper). This part in your video was accurate. The next thing I'd like to dwell on is the spread of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture to the northwest. there are numerous sites found up the flow of the Dnieste river, up north and west to the modern city of Lviv. Sites like Koshylivtsi, Bilche Zolote, and Shypyntsi suggest to us that the culture was more prominent and spread up the flow of Dniester and Prut rivers on both of their banks, occupying lands from the Carpathian foothills to the, again, right bank of the Southern Bug. To conclude this part, I suggest that the area inhabited by the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture should be larger and take up the land between modern-day cities on axis Lviv-Kyiv-Kropyvnytskiy-Mykolaiv-Tiraspol-Galati-Buzau-Bakau-Suceava-Ivano-Frankivsk-Lviv, although Lviv may be debatable as there were found archeological evidence of the late culture so Lviv salient may be omitted. Now about Yamnaya culture. As I described the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture area I think there are no broad explanations needed about the adjustment of the area now overlapping. The only thing to add is that Yamnaya culture is depicted as present way too north and east. I'd like to clarify another point - the ancient core of the Yamnaya culture. To be exact I'd like to dispute your suggestion of their core homeland as the Volga River. As with everything in history, cultures have their predecessors. Yamnaya culture is no exception and it is widely known that eneolithic Yamnaya culture followed Sredny Stog culture that evolved out of Dnieper-Donets culture which in it's own way was an ancestor of Bug-Dniester culture. From this logical row of cultures, we can figure out that Yamnaya culture and its core were situated from the left bank of the Southern Bug River and up to the Don (on both banks) rivers. Of course, Volga played a huge role in the culture's evolvement, and as you suggested in the video, they were a more harsh, warrior-like culture thus their expansion to the west and east was an obvious step. The heartland you showed was a core of another culture that Yamnaya later subjugated - Khvalynsk culture. that was predecided by Samara culture which in its right claims Middle Volga with its ancestor Elshanka culture as the location of the core of the culture is still found around Volga; and Afontova Gora and Mal'ta cultures as its ancestors, whose archeological sites are located deeply east beyond the Urals. Modern-day Uhrheimat hypothesis doesn't indicate the area around Volga as the only core heartland of Yamnaya (and Indo-European in total) culture as it suggests that it cannot be identified properly and we have a dozen different theories now, instead, it suggests that the most prominent lands they inhabited were lands between Southern Bug and Volga. Taking into consideration their nomad nature, we can't indicate one specific place. So to sum up - the Yamnaya culture core shouldn't be mentioned and specifically pointed out or should be shown larger in the region between Southern Bug and Volga. TL DR: Cucuteni-Trypillia culture should be bigger. Yamnaya culture's core territory should be either broader or not shown exactly as it is debatable and cannot be identified exactly.

Sure, it is likely that there was plenty of killings around that time, just like in most historical periods, but people back then likely used to fight and kill neighboring villages of the same culture just as much. If a culture spreads out, it's because their developments/discoveries, technologies and way of life spreads, due to them being superior and more useful.

Wherever the Indo-European went, once he took power he mixed with the local populations, Europe is no exception. Europeans are a mixture of three types of population: the hunter-gatherer, the Anatolian farmer and the Indo-Europeans of the steppes. This is more true for Southern and Western Europe. To the north and east of Europe the Indo European mixed less with the Anatolian farmers simply because Northern Europe is characterized by colder temperatures while the east of the continent was further from the Mediterranean or that it was the area of settlement of another population (yamnaya). These regions were therefore less populated than the south and west except in Scandinavia where the Yamnaya populations mixed with hunter-gatherers. In the Middle East also the Indo-Europeans mixed with the local populations except that unlike Europe, the Middle East was in numerical terms much more populated than Europe. The Indo-European populations were one population among others, a minority among minorities. In the Middle East the genetic diversity was multiple Europe, in terms of population constituted the margin, it was in a way an underpopulated territory. The Indo-Europeans did not find themselves facing diverse and large genetic populations. They found themselves facing a single population, either the Anatolian farmer or the hunter-gatherers. In numerical terms they had to be either equal or slightly higher. but their "military" powers allowed them to take power and subsequently to impose their genes. This is the difference between the Middle East and Europe. On the genetic level, 25 to 30% of the peoples of Western Asia, (Iranians (and the different minorities which populate this country) Kurds, the Zazas, carry the R1a. This percentage goes back to 50-55% in Tadkistan, a certain region of Afghanistan as well as parts of Pakistan and India The rest of the latter countries the percentage is 25-35%.

@espoire1757 haplogroup does not show genetic similarity or closeness. Haplogroup shows you that at least one individual has particularly large set of ancestors.

Of course that if you compare the average dude from 3000 BC with the farmer that just came into the Balkans in 7000 BC, you may find a difference in height, but that can easily be explained by the diet, lifestyle, quantity and qualify of food and so on. We know that we are much taller on average than people from late middle ages, so we were able to grow massively in the past 500 years. It is extremely likely that this could've easily happened over the 4000 years period, especially given the developments in agriculture and way of life during the period. Not only that people from these various neighboring cultures were likely very similar physically, but they were likely related culturally and linguistically. What actually spread, outside things like language and religion (that get shared and evolve all the time), was technology; as the developments like carts, advances in metallurgy as well as horse domestication, were too good not to spread like wildfire.

This video is filled with outdated and incorrect information. The "First Europeans" in this video (Early European Farmers) were not a peaceful nor egalitarian society, having inbred god-kings, mass weapon caches in fortified settlements, as well as the discovery of mass graves (presumably in the aftermath of a battle or razing of a settlement). Yamnaya is not the correct term, as Yamnaya are a cultural descendant of the PIE (Proto-Indo-European) people, alongside Corded-Ware. Yamnaya was the cultural group thay gave rise to Greek, Albanian, and Armenian languages (and extinct languages such as old Illyrian, Lydian, Phrygian, etc.). Corded Ware is responsible for all other Indo-European languages, including Celtic, Germanic, Italic, Baltic, Slavic, Iranic, and Vedic.

Not a bad video to pass the time between two commercials. The problem with the story about the peaceful and weak Cucuteni-Trypillians and the strong and tall members of the Yamnaya culture is that the former were mainly carriers of haplogroup I, and the latter R1a and R1b. The tallest nations in Europe today are those with a significant percentage of haplogroup I (Scandinavians - I1 and South Slavs - I2).

@@pelayo341 Haplogroups and ethnic origins are not the only, or even the most important element that would make one nation taller than another, but it is certainly indicative. This is random data from youtube and may not be precise, but it is easy to get a picture.

And finally, the members of the Cucuteni-Trypillian culture were mostly carriers of the I2a haplogroup, which is present in the Slavic peoples listed among the 10 tallest peoples in Europe (and in the ruling line of Kievan Rus, at least from Yaroslav the Wise, because he is the oldest ruler whose remains were sampled). Scandinavian and Germanic peoples in general have a higher percentage of haplogroup I1, which is not related to the Cucuteni Trypillian culture, but is the descendants of the so-called Anatolian farmers in both cases, regardless of subsequent influxes of other groups, especially Indo-European R

[@JustSpectre]

Definitely. Analysis of some LBK cemeteries in Moravia proved that there were significant elite males in the society. But the social model could be more complex and it is quite possible that "grandmothers" played a significant roles in politics and certainly in cult as the society was most likely matrilinear (not matriarchic!). This meant the mother-daughter line was of significance. Nevertheless we can imagine males could climb up the social ladder through their deeds and achievements accumulating social status and becoming so called "big man." Such a figure would not be a chieftain or king, but would have a great deal of influence on society and would accumulate wealth that could be redistributed for favours and strengthening of bonds. Nevertheless this is entirely hypothetical. What do you think?

[@ikengaspirit3063]

@@JustSpectre I am more an Africa guy when it comes to reading books and articles so most of what I am saying here comes from long form KZbin videos but we have sufficient evidence that the British and Irish Isles of this time was ruled by inbred priest-chiefs whose bones don't show evidence of the sort of hard labour it takes to farm and build monuments like stonehendge(other bones show this tho). Which is evidence for quite the stratified societies with an elite class. The whole inbreding and this elite class maintaining phenotypes more similar to the mesolithic hunter gatherers than other people buried there certainly showed blood and resemblance matters but another thing it shows to me is a belief that fertility to just general prosperity of the people and land laid in the hands of the "first comers" and for them to be successful those "first comers", in this case Mesolithic peoples had to be their priests and leaders. I make this assumption cuz the Niger-Congo had a similar belief and when the Bantu expanded south, they made the BaTwa(Pygmies) into priests(like a parallel existing caste) but not leaders but the genetic evidence of the British isles would imply both Priests and Leaders. Most of these doesn't necessarily apply to what you bring up as "Europe" usually refers more to more Eastern Europe and ur archeological example is in Central-Eastern Europe but I guess, as still part of pre-indo-european europe it is still useful. The next stuff should apply more. The Matrilineal stuff as well aligns with what I know and year, Matrilineal peoples are often still Patriachal, the Akan, Somalis and Nubians are desperate examples of that. Using those as an example, headship of a large household or clan could pass from a man to his nephew as legitimacy passes through the woman, so while the man would rule it would be from his most legitimate sister that the right to rule will pass. I also think it is reasonable possibility that their highest god was female, if I am to make the analogy here it would be to the Shaki Hindus who think a female god is the highest principle, highest god while India even in the North East where Shakti is strongest, is still very much Patriachal. Bigmen could be a thing but their own node of power independent of hereditary power, but I guess they could be the start of a hereditary power themselves.

[@berserkasaurusrex4233]

@@stefankatsarov5806 From about the mid-60's on, there has been a big push to portray very early European cultures as matriarchal societies that were conquered by scary mean patriarchal cultures. Probably flowing from feminist ideology moving into academia around that time. It's mostly based on a lot of assumptions and wishful thinking, and very little real evidence. And a lot of ignoring other cultures that had significant female artwork but were clearly patriarchal. For instance, I doubt they'd called medieval Europe a matriarchal culture, despite every church having a statue of the Virgin Mary. I had an Art History professor who used to go over all these "hippy fantasies of a magical matriarchy civilization wiped out by Conan" as he put it, and he'd point out various "Earth-Mother Goddess" statues and figurines used to supposedly prove the theory, even though they were actually depictions of warrior goddesses, more akin to Athena than a fertility idol. There was one statue in particular I remember, that supposedly is a statue of some fertility goddess with 100 breasts and shows up in a lot of literature about this supposed lost matriarchal culture. But the "breasts" are actually a suit of armor made from reindeer antler cut into scales. My professor had actually seen a tribal girl (a Scythian descendent) get married wearing an armored scale breast plate made from those sort of antler scales and it was identical to the statue. Given that warrior women where known to be buried with weapons in the ancient culture of that region, it made a lot more sense that they'd have a warrior goddess than them having an Ishtar-analogue. Edit: I see someone else brought up Marija Gimbutas, she's a big part of where this matriarchal fantasy comes from. Far as I know, she's largely fallen out of favor since her death, as most of her conclusions weren't really connected to any substantial evidence and she had a bad habit of just ignoring anything that went against her pet theory that the Kurgans wiped out some peaceful matriarchal society. Like the widespread use of fortifications, weapons, and other signs of tribal warfare among her "peaceful" pre-Kurgan cultures.

Pre-Proto-Indo-Europeans came from south of the Caucasus, the Proto-Indo-Europeans (Yamnaya) came from the steppe. Maybe actually look into the southern arc theory instead of allowing your conjecture to be influenced by your inferiority complex. The southern arc theory doesn't suggests the Indo-European language spread through Anatolia, it suggest that one of the ancestral groups of the Yamnaya, the Caucasus hunter gatherers, were the originators of the Indo-European languages. The southern arc theory believes that the Indo-European languages didn't originate with the Yamnaya, but it doesn't refute the idea they were spread by the Yamnaya. The Yamnya were likely the ones to spread the Indo-European languages because as far south as India and as far north as Iceland you'll find people with eastern hunter gatherer blood, something that is unique to the Yamnaya.

This is reflected in the Ancient and modern Archeological and Genetic record, in essence, European Culture is NIOLITHIC, MEDITERRANEAN & MIDDLE EASTERN. The Yamnaya were Mongolian and Amerindian in Phenotype, with Brown skin, dark hair instead of White... NOTHING about the Yamnaya is present in Greece, Rome or Spain (Iberia), not culturally, not in Phenotype, and even the most ancient Myths of Ireland and Britain involve Egyptian and Mediterranean settlers, who were regarded as Deities by native Celts. "Scotia" was an Egyptian Queen who ruled Britian and ga ve her name to Scotland, and EUROPA was a Phoenician Princess whose name is that of EUROPE...

They also migrated to the Taklamakan desert on the western edge of China, in the region of Xinjiang. They probably founded the original Silk road between Western Europe and China. Their DNA indicates that they were from north west Europe and were related to the Celts, because they were found buried wearing tartan clothing, which is identical in weave pattern to modern tartan. These people introduced horses and chariots to the Chinese, along with textiles, metallurgy and the earliest known examples of woven ‘wild silk.’ Their bodies were naturally preserved in the desert sands and are easily recognisable as Europeans, with their hair, skin, clothing and shoes still intact. In later times they were called the Tocharians and still controlled the eastern end of the old Silk Road and were famous horse breeders and traders. Chinese mythology speaks about these tall, blonde, blue eyed people who taught them many things and ruled over them as kings. The history we have been taught is a lie, to diminish European achievement and influence on other cultures in the Middle East, India and China. But the truth is there if you search for it.
