Egyptian dads were like, “F*ck your inheritance, boy. I'm taking my beer pots and make-up rock with me.”

Thank you, Dr Fletcher.

Brand new Egyptian find on KZbin! This is a gem right here.

“They were people very much like us” “They drew pictures for a reason, maybe magic to influence the hunt, we can only guess” We make art for art’s sake. We draw because we like to and if we’re good at it we get compliments. Even if nobody sees our art we can’t not paint or draw. What people see in it can be totally different from person to person and day to day. The most logical reason why someone drew on the rocks: they could. They were good at it.

[@211212112]

That and to tell a tale. To say we was here and these are some of the things in our daily lives and that we like.

[@kidohchi]

I second that.

[@AntonSmyth-od6rc]

Art was seen as having strict social function in ancient Egypt. Hence the strict guidelines on how to present art over its 3000 years history

[@Chenihal]

Ever seen witches paint runes? Of course it can also be art for magic or some kind of showing off accomplishments. It wasn’t just for fun in most cases

They are not they are North Africas Europeans lived in caves like animals savages.

The square shaft, at 22:07, without any shoring seems a bit hazardous.

Love ancient history documentaries… do we need another channel to share the exact same videos as Timeline, Odyssey, chronicle channels. Just worried about clicks over content these days it seems

[@carolsalter9002]

I cant imagine how much history is under that sand waiting to be discovered.

[@julybeeb4614]

Europeans stay out of North Africa and Middle East. Civilization started in those areas while europeans lived in caves like savages and animals

I recently went to the museum of fine arts Boston MA and saw the sculpture of King Menkaura (Mycerinus) and queen, amazing art work

[@ryann6067]

Great museum!

[@kerstinphil]

Oh I love your documentaries I saw so many 😊 you are just fantastic thank you so much

[@-oz8ny]

Joann, you covered almost everything, but where is the kings house, we would like to see inside it.

[@ilijajovanov-gn1xc]

Dheare a no kings in dhat time but Faraohs projects . Everiting displayed in Egypt what we see today is science for creation of our world including great piramides .

[@ainsleystevenson9198]

The time periods don’t add up, it’s not likely the Sahara became desert over 10,000 years ago because we have maps recording rivers and lakes, it would mean nomadic hunter gatherers possessed and passed on those maps, which would have had no value to them, for thousands of years.

[@arthurdent2817]

Earth tilt 10,000 years ago ? Are you referring to the gradual precession change ?

[@kidohchi]

No.

[@kidohchi]

..jK The earth used to be ^straight^, then 4 some reason - a big asteroid, er something like that.. The earth tilted a bit °~° ..? F.ed_uP everything

I found you through Odyssey 😊

[@PinkKitten77]

Could you imagine if a pyramid was a motel/hotel with hundreds of rooms? Like rooms for the living not for the dead.

[@ryann6067]

One was made specifically as such in Tenesse. Its now a Sporting goods store I think. It failed as a hotel

[@mdshaler]

Someone did! It's in Las Vegas called Luxor. . .

[@OVTraveller]

The final resting place? Your opening phrase may not necessarily correct, unless we discover the resting place somewhere else in this edifice?

[@susanamann1806]

I have always wondered if they had elephants.

[@atemnal]

mind u this is the same vid posted about 5 times on odyssey

Right I put this on to sleep to saw how it was a “new” video but 5 mins in realized I’ve seen this a million times lol.

There was no Egypt when the Napta Playa "calendar" was constructed, so technically or historically it wasn't constructed by Egyptians!

Ah thanks I was looking for someone else to notice that too. I was so confused when they said that

Some of those carvings look like they were scratched in there a week ago by children... I ain't sayin' you been had, but...

I got to "Final resting place of King Khufu" - not even a minute in. No mummy or sarcophagus has ever been found in ANY of the pyramids. Cant watch this tripe.

You lost me when you said it was a tomb...

[@paulannable3734]

I know… it’s not like you’d find a sarcophagus in the great pyramid if it was a tomb or anything.

[@nenasiek]

Why cant she call it a tomb? Isnt the word used in that way, as in a space thats been closed off?

[@Chenihal]

Tell me what it is then. Sincerely just interested

How so? there is an enormous amount of material culture evidence indicating they are in fact tombs.

Only four thousand years huh? And it's a tomb but it doesn't have any hieroglyphs? Interesting. And this so-called tomb was built within the lifetime of the Pharaoh with only copper chisels? 🤔

[@AntonSmyth-od6rc]

Why is Art Nouveau not Art Deco? I find it suspect

[@ryann6067]

Your lack of education on this topic in no way is an indication that those are not tombs that were built 4500 years ago utilizing both stone and copper tools. ;)

[@darkelf1000]

So old

[@GagnierA]

Interesting, but I'm sure that even the creators of this documentary must realize that it's full of false information. I guess following the script of the Ministery of State for Antiquities Affairs of Egypt is the base requirement these days to even get access to the country at all...we certainly couldn't have real information (even though it's all mostly guesses anyway) floating around out there or alternative views that happen to make more sense than the established narrative. I had the expectation this was going to be incorrect and not contain anything ground breaking when the opening line they give us is that the great pyramids were tombs -- it doesn't take a scholar to know that they were never tombs and weren't even constructed by the Egyptians. They were inherited/found structures that were later mimicked (to an extremely inferior degree, since most people don't realize Egypt has something like 120 discovered pyramids and they're all junk in comparison to the ones in Giza). Anyway, I'm not going to write an essay here outlining the whole show and where they went wrong, most will know haha Cheers!

[@ryann6067]

Your total lack of education on this topic is astoundingly evident in your comment. Just note you are just repeating evidence-less pseudo-historical interpretations that are patently false.

[@GagnierA]

@@ryann6067 Where was I incorrect?

[@ryann6067]

⁠@@GagnierAfor one. Your assumptions regarding what the pyramids are not, Are astoundingly naive and clearly indicate you havnt spent any time seriously learning about them. Ask yourself why would monumental structures built in a necropolis (cemetery), surrounded by contemporaneous tombs, and have been found to contain sarcophagi, burials and human remains, and some of which have funerary texts, among other funerary material cultural evidence be something other than a tomb? And Why are the adjacent and attached pyramid complex buildings constructed for funerary and memorial purposes? I recommend starting with a basic book on these and learn some basic facts about these fascinating structures and the ancient Egyptian culture. ‘The Complete Pyramids’ by Mark Lehrner is a good book to start with. -cheers

[@GagnierA]

@@ryann6067 Are you even above the age of 20? You don't seem to have a grasp on even conversational skills. I'm not going to go back and forth with someone that doesn't understand objective proof. If your only point of contention is that the pyramids were tombs, every legitimate archeologist on the planet agrees that they aren't tombs. There was never any bodies or sarcophagi in any of the Great Pyramids, let alone to state, there is no writing anywhere on the walls within like with the lesser pyramids like those that are in the Valley of Kings and surrounding areas that ARE tombs made by the Egyptians (and, I'll add, are of horrendous quality by any comparison). What the Egyptians actually built are essentially terrible cardboard copycat structures and it goes to show that they weren't the ones to build the Great Pyramids on the Giza Plateau. The way technology works within a civilization or organized group is that it starts at a base level and only gradually gets better from there. If they had the means and ability to build those, why is it that every pyramid they built afterward through the centuries got worse and worse and are all crumbling and crooked messes? Technology and ability within a civilization doesn't get worse to that extent. They found the structures as a landmark, adopted them and built around them. It's the only thing that makes logical sense. Perhaps they had a formal function of some kind and there are alot of great ideas emerging about that, but we'll never actually know for real unless the documentation is found and shared.
