[@wakandaisevil]

the last one is fake, clearly ancient egyptians were black africans. The pyramids were built by placks and all Egyptian history is black!!1

[@ARabidPie]

Just want to point out that the Hittites and other ancient residents of the Anatolian peninsula were most certainly not Turkish or proto-turkish. The Turkish people originating in central Asia didn't migrate into the area until around the 11th century.

[@danidavis7912]

Fact-checking has never been a big priority for Simon's writers.

[@rgw7345]

It's a strange mistake to make. He even says Hittite people a few moments later, but then calls them turkish again. Maybe several takes were strung together.

[@Jdsm97]

I did notice this. There was no Turkish empire in ancient times. The writers really need to do a bit better imo

[@westrim]

I do believe it was intended to mean "people who lived in what is now modern day Turkey," but of course that sort of abbreviation isn't great when talking about historical matters.

[@the-chillian]

There's still a good proportion of Bronze Age genes to be found in the modern inhabitants of Anatolia, with genes from Central Asia contributing maybe around 10%. (Although studies vary.) The influence of the Turkish migrations seems to have been more cultural than genetic.

hey Graham Hancock

[@Tijuanabill]

@@Vordb666 You say that as if what the OP said was crazy, but the fact of the matter is, losing coastal cities is EXACTLY the thing people are worried about climate change over. What is your evidence that ice age humans didn't live near the coasts, like we do today? No archeologist has ever made that claim, that I have heard. What are you on about?

[@Vordb666]

I was just making fun of the fact that OP's comment was a completely asinine, unoriginal thought which the woo woo conspiracy people parrot 24/7 but I was probably just in a cranky mood or something and misunderstood their comment. That being said their comment is just like...a statement of fact? Yes there are already coastlines of former habitats that are now underwater. Not really up for debate lol @@Tijuanabill

[@Tijuanabill]

@@Vordb666 The issue that the OP raised, is all of the underwater archeology is focused on finding shipwreck gold, which is of no historical value. All around the the world, there are interesting underwater sites, just off our shores, that nobody seems to want to try and learn more about. You can laugh at the explanations for these megalithic stone sites, and the like, but nothing is more laughable, than thinking they are no big deal, and fit in with what we know.

[@the-chillian]

- Hattusa was the Bronze Age capital of the Hittite Empire, not Turkish. There would be no polity that could fairly be called a Turkish empire until much, much later. - Cuneiform is not a "proto-language" but an early writing system ultimately used to write many different languages, some entirely unrelated to the others, from Sumerian to Akkadian to Hittite to Hattic to Hurrian to Persian to this newly discovered language, and inspired the alphabetic system of Urartian. - Hittite is the oldest *attested* Indo-European language. There were certainly older IE languages including the reconstructed proto-Indo-European, but they weren't written down. - The newly found Kalasma language doesn't contain an ancient "idiom that stuck." We can't call it a "saying" either, because it hasn't been deciphered even though it appears to be another IE language related to Luwian. Most sources are calling it a "recitation", based largely on its context in a ritual text. It probably has to do with the Hittite habit of transporting gods of people they conquered to their capital, where they made an effort to honor them as in their native country in the original language. That's also how we know languages like Palaic and Hattic. Whether it's a prayer or a kind of ritual manual, or something else is not yet known. - Although a great deal of the Bronze Age Anatolian genome persists in modern Turkey, Bronze Age Anatolians can in no way be termed "ancestral Turks". Ancestral, yes. Turks, no.

[@jonathanwalls6760]

So I gotta be a tiny bit pedantic here since I'm a graduate student studying Hittite and other Anatolian languages, but cuneiform is emphatically NOT a proto-language, it's just a writing system used to write lots of different languages like Hittite, Akkadian, etc. That said, I should be attending the event this February where they release the first real information about Kalasmaic and I am STOKED!!!! Thanks for putting it in the video Simon, it's super exciting!!!

[@RadeticDaniel]

How was the event? Really curious about some fresh news =)

[@jonathanwalls6760]

@@RadeticDaniel it was interesting! I don't have a ton of new information that I can really distribute since the paper discussing it has been delayed, but if you're interested in following it, Dr Elizabeth Rieken should be publishing that paper on it here in the next few months. The language shows some really interesting features from the other Anatolian languages, and I'm not 100% sure what that means in terms of its classification, but I imagine Dr Rieken will have some stuff to say about that in her article. I'll try to remember to update this whenever it comes out!

[@TheGryphonSun]

I thought Sumerians used cuneiform tablets too.

[@jonathanwalls6760]

@@TheGryphonSun They did! Matter of fact, they invented the system. They were part of what I had in mind with "etc." Besides Sumerian there was also Luwian (one form if it anyway), Ugaritic, Old Persian, and several others beyond what I originally mentioned. Cuneiform was pretty much the go-to writing system for a couple thousand years until the Phoenicians developed the alphabet

[@tonyhawk123]

Imagine if the proposed dam at the Straight of Gibraltar was actually made and the Mediterranean drained. Archaeologists would have a field day with the previously sunken cities mentioned in this video.

[@SotonSam]

Unbelievable things would be found

[@andygarside2418]

Interesting idea, but I reckon the water would flood in faster than they could pump it out! Just googled the tributary rivers, doesn't have a number, but some of the biggest rivers in Europe and the nile... thats a lot of buckets of water!

[@davidtatro7457]

Damming the Straight of Gibraltar would not drain the Mediterranean. If anything, the opposite.

[@scott2100]

There was a mega project about this and draining the Mediterranean, iirc, it basically in the long term it would kill humanity

[@westrim]

@@andygarside2418 The Mediterranean evaporates faster than all the rivers combined can refill it. Versions of those rivers existed when it was a hypersaline wasteland about 5.5 million years ago, and they weren't enough. Even today, we can measure that more water flows into the Mediterranean through the Straits of Gibraltar than out.

[@Dank-gb6jn]

The discoveries of the Cerberus fresco and the sunken Nabatean temple to Dushara were also supremely amazing finds; especially the fresco as it was in impeccable shape! Further, the Hittites existed in what is modern day Türkiye way before the actual Turks did; the area originally being called the Anatolian Peninsula. Also: Cuneiform was an ancient logo-syllabic *script* not a “language”. It was used to *write* languages, but it didn’t function as one itself. Sumerian, Akkadian, and the recently discovered Kalašma (or Kalasmaic) are prime examples of *languages* that all used the same general script concept.

[@callumgriss5422]

so like the alphabet? where the individual characters are used in different languages but aren't a language themselves?

[@Dank-gb6jn]

@@callumgriss5422 kind of, though I’m not a studier of alphabets or languages.

[@RadeticDaniel]

​@@callumgriss5422in a sense. But the distinction of writing system here is important. There is a good video by Tom Scott explaining all types of writing systems. A syllabary has characters for each syllable. An alphabet has characters for each sound, at least in principle. A pictographic system has images that relate to the word and an ideographic/iconographic system has symbols that represent words or ideas. Japanese hiragana is a syllabary, same as Korean Hangul. Western languages mostly use the Roman alphabet, Cyrillic script is also an alphabet. Chinese is iconographic as also Japanese Kanji, which inherited from Chinese writing. Cuneiform script was used both as phonetic and iconographic in some languages, while purely as phonetic in others as far as I remember

I think some of the best underwater archaeology might be around the original coastline of Sahul, looking for first settlements from around 60k years ago. It could be the one series of finds that might push back the evidence for boat construction, which is currently inferred.

[@PalmelaHanderson]

Or just on the continental shelves in general. For example, we're pretty damn sure that the first humans to go to North America HAD to have arrived by boat, and we discover new things all the time that push back how long people have been in North America. The white sands footprints are dated to 21-23,000 years ago, and they're in New Mexico. At the time, there was no way to walk the thousands of miles over Beringia/Alaska/Canada, as it would have been covered in ice.

[@Tijuanabill]

We are told there is nothing to find, but the same people say if it was abandoned by humans, New York City wouldn't exist in 10,000 years of the earth reclaiming it. I don't think there are any New Yorks to dig up, but the time factor cannot be ignored. Unless it's made of stone, or was coincidentally encased as a fossil, nothing exists after 10,000 years. They are saying there is no chance a Medieval Europe level of technology existed, despite everything but the castle being made of wood.

It's literally not that people think there was some amazing lost civilization; it's that the narrative we are told about our early history is clearly nonsense. Both things can be true that there was no hyper advanced civilization, and that human beings didn't behave completely unlike human beings for 200,00 years, then suddenly start building pyramids. Just because the ancients didn't build out of stone, doesn't mean they ran around like Tarzan in loin cloths, doing basically nothing for all that time.

Probably just the large number of subscribers/views this channel attracts. Despite Simon’s description, moisturizer isn’t really a niche beauty item. It treats dry skin. For a *truly* niche product, it probably makes sense to seek out specific types of channels, but I suspect sponsors that have a wide enough interest base just look at the number of subscribers/average number of views. Once the viewership is high enough, the odds are good that at least a few viewers will be interested in the product.

[@ablebaker8664]

If the dating is correct then the civilization that built them is much older. As you said, Simon, they were opulent structures. A civilization doesn't just go from mud huts to brick and fitted stone overnight. The skills required evolve with each generation making novel improvements and passing the state of the art down to their young... It takes at least several hundred years, to thousands of years to refine such skills to the point that someone would have the planning skills, surveying skills, management and oversight and the resources to dedicate all the dedicated specialist skills to such a project. They're going to find older architecture using the same techniques and materials but smaller, cruder and less planned looking... And eventually graves or tombs. It's just a matter of time.
