3100 BC: Unearthing The Origins of Ancient Egypt | Immortal Egypt | Timeline

In the first episode, Professor Joann Fletcher goes in search of the building blocks of Egyptian civilisation and finds out what made ancient Egypt the incredible civilisation that it was.
Joann sees how people here changed, in just a few centuries, from primitive farmers to pyramid builders and finds the early evidence for Egypt's amazing gods and obsession with death and the afterlife.
On her search, Joann travels almost 20,000 years back in time to discover north Africa's earliest rock art, she discovers how the first writing was used to calculate taxes and explores one of the first stone structures on earth - Egypt's first pyramid. Joann ends her journey in the largest monument of them all - the Great Pyramid. Here, she explains how Egypt had now reached a pinnacle - the ultimate society, creating one of the wonders of the ancient world.

I’m Egyptian and I would like to thank you for mentioning the camels thing. People think camels are part of our heritage and culture but it’s totally not. It’s only available at touristic sites for merely commercial purposes. Unlike what people may think, we are much more about agriculture than desert stuff. The pyramids were surrounded by agricultural land until a century ago. Most of our traditions and habits are strongly related to the agricultural nature of old Egypt.

[@Palestine4Ever169]

Uriyah bin Yahudah Stfu you confused bantu We got nothing to do with you

[@Palestine4Ever169]

marow95 Here n a recent study, genetic samples were taken from at least 90 mummies. What geneticists working alongside archaeologists found was that the mummies had closer genetic connections to the Middle East, specifically the Levant and Anatolia. This is an interesting find since it suggests that modern Egyptians are more African than ancient Egyptians. We are west Asians And North Africans We got nothing to do with sub Saharen Africans

[@marow95]

Miss Telly Yeah? And what about all the other African countries that speak French and English as native language instead of their original language and follow the catholic church? Are they from Europe, too? Colonialism can change culture and language but not the people themselves. Modern Egyptians are more or less the same as the ancient ones as much as the modern Nigerians are more or less the same as the ancient Nigerians. FYI, The Egyptian Language (coptic) was still the majority native language in Egypt until 400 years ago and still to our date it remains the official language of the Egyptian orthodox church and is still used in some parts in Egypt. And still, most of the cultural heritage of Egypt is about the agricultural lifestyle and to this date the vast majority of Egyptians live along the banks of the nile river.

@Carl Lewis Who knows if Arabic as a language was found at ancient Egyptian times or not?

We are not Arabs because of the spoken language. We are Egyptians because of the land that feeds us every day! We appreciate our ancestors beliefs not because of the controversial to our faith, but because of the pleasure to compare how they were and what our beliefs now are to worship one God. Language is not the issue here. And realistically majority of Egyptians are not Arabs! We are Turkish who used to speak and write Arabic because we are muslims !

If interested...Rothman, quoted earlier, said...''All that was known in Mesopotamia came from Armenia and that Armenia is the absent fragment in the entire mosaic of the ancient world's civilization's construction. what some historians say...H.V. Hilprecht(1859-1925) a Clark research professor of Assyriology and scientific director Babylonian expedition at the University of Penn. argue that the Hittite tongue is Armenian and the Hittites themselves were of Armenian stock...according to Ellis (1861) through language analysis we observe that under the names of Phrygians, Thracians,Pelasgians and Etruscans spread westward from Armenia to Italy and Elis claimed that the closest affinities of the Aryan element are the Armenians ..other historians that agree are..Hellenthal, Busgy, Brand, Wilson, Myers and Falush...let me quote Merrick (2012) All religions are descended from and ancient Vedic cosmology described in the Rib - Veda, originating in Armenia near Mt. Ararat at least 6800 ys ago and the basic concepts of a transcendental mountain extending into space and populated planet Star-gods were developed...he further says...This Astrotheology then migrated with Armenian Aryans to found the Sumerian Ethiopian/Egyptian and Indian civilizations and religions...from Language as a fingerprint Setyan..

yes, mass homicide tends to have a detrimental effect on society. do we have any clue why those images at Qurta were created? perhaps as some kind of "hunting magic." why do these "archeologists" always conclude or assume our ancestors were superstitious morons who believed in magic and the supernatural? here's an idea. maybe the images were created out of a deep appreciate for natural beauty and an overwhelming desire for self expression. you know, its called ART! they were simply recreated the images they saw before them because they admired their beauty and not for any ceremonial or religious reasons.

[@ISSGOD]

I am going to really enjoy this series. If ancient Egypt fascinates you then I have a tip for you. Rent or buy Assassin's Creed Origins as it has a historical mode that allows you to not only visit many locations of ancient Egypt but it also has 60 narrated historical tours that cover a wide range of interests. The game is set during the time of Cleopatra and beautifully recreates ancient Egypt. Not everything presented is historically accurate as some accommodations had to be made for game play and some architecture had to be guess at such as The Library of Alexandria but none the less the recreation is stunning. With that said the creators went to amazing lengths to preserve historical accuracy. It is an amazing opportunity to roam around ancient Egypt and take in the sights. You can even run around as Cleopatra if you like!

[@MrNiceGuyHistory]

And you can impale people on a pike...Vlad style!

[@MeAuntieNora]

If you want to save some money, and/or don't want to engage with the murderous M-rated gameplay of the main game (which is quite fun btw), the Discovery Tour is available as a separate purchase on PC for 20 bucks. While it is included for free in the full game, 20 dollars might be well worth it for educational purposes, or for exploring with kids. I think it'd be a dream for a curious kid to be set loose among the pyramids, get to go INSIDE THEM, and along the way, learn their history and how they were each built... then you can go beyond that! Don't be put off by the violent reputation of the series, this truly is fun for the whole family. There's even controversial aspects related to that, as some nudity in ancient art has been censored out! Nary a stone nipple to be ogled.
