I'm quite familiar with Roman history and have read a few books by Roman historians (Flavio Josephus included), but I've never paid much attention to the references to this city. This documentary is excellent. This city now in ruins must have been very beautiful, busy and important in the 1st century AD. The virtual recreation of the buildings and the city could have been done. This would add great media value to the site.

Actually, Jerash is one of the best preserved of the Decapolis cities, and is known as the Pompeii of the Middle East. A lot of restoration work has been done there, and continues to be. Some of it excellent, such as the restoration of the North theatre (the late Antoni Ostrasz), some of it a little too "hollywood", such as the Hippodrome and South theatre (under the direction of the Antiquities director at Jerash). It really is one of the most amazing places to visit. I was lucky enough to be chosen to participate in excavations at Jerash under the direction of the wonderful Ina Kehrberg-Ostrasz, one of the leading authorities on Jerash and, further to working at the site, we were actually fortunate enough to live on the site as well. And one of the most memorable experiences of my life was being able to wander around the site and walk along the Cardo at night, particularly when the moon was bright, with not another soul in sight. A privilege experienced by very few people.

When I look at these documentaries about roman civilizations and their buildings, I am always amazed. The buildings that the romans built are still there for well over 2000 years as they were once built by them. When I look at today's houses in contrast to the Roman buildings, there is a big question mark over my head. Why do the houses that are built today crumble after barely twenty years and Roman buildings are still standing after 2000 years. Are today's masons or architects too stupid to build a solid house? If you look at roman buildings then you should think so. Probably the bad construction has to do with money again nowadays, because you can't earn money on something that is built for eternity.

I am not sure exactly why this happens, but I do know that (from what I seem, so I am not 100% sure) the Roman’s ingredients for concrete was/is different from most now. I do know they recently figured out what most the ingredients were for Roman concrete. The really cool thing about Roman concrete (IMO) is that it’s self healing ❤️‍🩹, when a crack starts the concrete kinda “grows” and makes the concrete while again in that spot.

The buildings as well as most of the columns of main streets were reconstruted in Gerasa/Jerash. The city was completly in ruins. There was also a local saying: to be ruined like Jerash 🙂 Besides the buildings were constructed mainly and most probably by local masons (by the way buildings were often poorly constructed: like a hippodrome for example).

Gerasa (Antioch on Chrysorhoas) was in fact urbanized and became a real polis during the Roman domination on the Near East, though not immediately after the creation of the Syrian Decapolis district. This process actually intensified under the Flavians, and especially after the creation of the province of Arabia, and reached its peak during the Antonine dynasty, after which the city was raised to the rank of a Roman colony under the Severans... as far as we know.

It was 2017 we traveled around Jordan with one of our friend's family from Saudi Arabia in their car. We visited Jerash then. The guide told us about a non existing river that once supported the habitation perhaps changed its course after a severe earthquake. That looks most logical why this unique city civilization lost its population, to be rediscovered by some European soldiers while camping there during 2nd world war.

All this is questionable, the Roman building of things were generally repurposed structures they've conquered. To think the Romans rampaged across Europe while building preflood megalithic buildings is not true. All one has to do is look at Rome and see the shoddy brick arches and other things they did build. There's no way in hell they moved 1000 ton stones.

You are spouting nonsense - all over western Europe and the Middle East the Romans built magnificent structures where there had been nothing before -from Britain to Iraq -this was because of their inventions and innovations especially of arch and dome technology. They invented concrete which was the key to many of their most magnificent structures like the incredible Pantheon in Rome which after nearly two thousand years is still the largest pre industrial masonry dome and influenced all later dome construction including churches and mosques. And go to Rome and look at the Colosseum building, the massive vaults of the Bath house complexes. Go to Verona, Nimes, Orange, Arles and el Djem in north Africa to see other incredible arenas! Look at the massive aqueduct bridges at Nimes and Segovia to see how they could build bridges and aqueducts. Go to Caesarea in Israel to see how Romans could build in concrete even under water. Go to the ruins of Pompeii itself in Italy or go to Istanbul for the massive walls, the huge underground water cisterns and the hippodrome.If you had watched this video you could have seen that they even had the technology to use water power to cut great blocks of stone - proof of this type of machine is also seen with a drawing of it on a tomb in Hierapolis in Turkey dating from the Roman era. "Shoddy brick arches indeed! Haven't you ever heard of the arch of Titus or of Hadrian or Constantine? What you are thinking of are the inner remains of buildings that were long demolished by earthquakes and the like but which originally were clad in marble and other precious materials. Just wake up and stop making a fool of yourself!

@@dugancameron8056 According to expert architectural historians the Romans totally revolutionized architecture by their use of the arch and the dome and the concomitant use of concrete. Prior to this everything was post and lintel stuff repeated over and over again or mass built upon mass -even the vast pyramids of Egypt and the massive Egyptian temples, the Babylonian ziggurats, Chinese buildings, Greek buildings whatever were merely post and lintel, corbelling or brick upon brick, stone upon stone type of construction. Roman architecture was qualitatively different for the reasons I have just given -highly sophisticated arch technology as in their massive aqueducts and concrete dome construction as in the Pantheon and later Christian era churches.

Every single of those columns and capitals look textbook Roman. If there was Helenistic architecture there before the Romans, say a Doric or Ionic temple, they were completely and totally replaced with Roman style architecture. 29:50 Even these "ionic" capitals in what would have been the temple of Zeus are in the Classic Roman incarnation of the style. The space between the volutes is flat and horizontal whereas in the Classic Helenistic style it would curve downward between the volutes. Not to mention the un-fluted columns. Totally Roman.

@@Wojact_Taki Yeah but the Romans were known to knock down everything and rebuild it their way. Much more modern and grander. The few Greek temples that remain were in what became malaria infested swamps or areas that were abandoned or inaccessible for some good reason. There are very few extant Greek temples in the world. And there's always a good reason and explanation for how they survived. We're talking about hundreds of years difference sometimes and a completely new way of building using concrete and arches. Greek pillars were segmented and fluted whereas Romans preferred monolithic pillars on their temples. Otherwise it was mostly brick and concrete with Marble revetments. They look very similar but once you know the differences, it's pretty obvious.

@@Wojact_Taki There are NO Roman settlements or cities where they left behind an ancient Greek Doric or Ionic temple. None. It's either "Greek/Helenistic" or it's Roman. And they're not the same. The Romans never built a Doric temple and their Ionic was much more ornate. Their architecture was much more "baroque" so to speak. And the Corinthian Order is a Roman invention. The Capital is originally Helenistic but their version was less robust and more delicate and usually only used as a votive column within a temple. There were never any Corinthian style Greek temples. And the four cornered Ionic/Corinthian composite "schamozzi" style capital is also theirs. If you didn't know any better you'd think it was all the same. Once you know... it becomes apparent. Too many are under the misunderstanding that the Three Orders are Greek and that the Romans are just copying. They're not... It would be like calling Reinisssance revival architecture just "Greek" or "Roman" as opposed to Greco Roman revival. It's a continuation on an aesthetic and a descendant of but definitely not the same. If asked what kind of classic architecture they had in Syria your answer wouldn't be inappropriate or wrong but when walking through the ruins of a Roman city... There's no Greek left. None.

Unfortunately, the otherwise interesting video was spoiled by having a French description superimposed by an English one. I could have followed either one, but having them both at the same time, left neither understandable!

The Romans never built anything of this magnitude in Britain. Why? (Likely it was seen as a backwater culture of peoples they merely desired to control, they desired their resources of tin, mica, and forests. They very likely knew the ancient value of the Irish, their earlier Christain Practices, (pre Constatine), their libraries of Knowledge and Colleges of Education that the elite sent their children to for Higher Education. What they labeled as Pagan, including the Druids and Picts were holders of the Ancient Knowledge. Their goals was to overcome them with a propaganda and new religion. They feared actual combat with them, possibly due to an idea of their possessing Magic, from the Tuatha de Danann. "The Tribe of Dan" (Tel Dan) Whatever the facts of the eea, the observable facts remain and are overwhelmingly ignired. 🔹Was it the Romans, or Anglos, that Ethnicslly cleansed all the orig8nal English Males, such that only less than 2% of that male DNA remains ..."?"

Biblically speaking, These are the lands of Edom who later became Ionians and later Idumean (Romans)... French Archeologist are recreating history and locations since the 1600s. It's real conspiracy among French and Swiss archeologist

Hello! You know, I’ve have been wondering who the Edomites are today? 🤔 I’m from the Tribe of Gad, which are the original black Native Indians in America and Canada!

The narrator is not correct by referring to first century historian as Joseph Flavius. His correct name was JOSEPHUS.

At 51:30 you mistakenly say the Greeks founded it in 300 AD!!!! The Greeks were nothing in 300 AD. The Greeks ruled the area in 300 BC not AD! It was founded by the Greeks in 331 BC according to most sources. The facts like these are very important in a documanetary like this. You need to either fix it or add a note to the description

Gerasa was probably founded in times of Antiochus III or Antiochus IV (which is more probable according to C. H. Kraeling), not in the III rd century BC and reached its peak in the II century AD.

@@clanmccroneartist6049 So far, there are no evidence of a Hellenistic settlement in the 3rd century BC. The existence of a Hellenistic settlement is confirmed for the 2nd century BC. Of course, the Hellenistic settlement arose on the site of an earlier settlement, but there was a gap noticed in settlement from about the mid/late 7th century BC to 2nd century BC, if I remember correctly.
