Norfolk, the home of Boudiccas Iceni, is a strange area!
Comment from : DAVID Whelan

Have travelled around 99 of these old tribal areas, during work in the last 40+ yearsbrThe disparate nature of Britain still exists to a pointbrAccents, food and alcohol, all take a part in this

Misinformation There is no evidence of Indo-European spoken in the British Isles until Roman occupation brWhy?brbrLet me explain brbr In their writings about the Province they named 'Britannia', 'Britons' is how the Romans refer to its citizens brThere is no ethnic people who ever called themselves "Britons"brbr'Brythonic' is the local Latin dialect of 'Britannia ' When Catholicism spread acrost the Isles in later Centuries, this form of 'pidgin' Latin spread with itbrThat's how you get Gaelic languages brbrIn the 1700s, some French novelist decided it would be a fun idea to give Gaelic languages the label "Celtic", in reference to the Latin word 'Celtis' which means 'Chisel 'brbrWhy? Truthfully its Irelevant The point is this Latin word has no historical association with language or ethnicity brbrSo you can rest assured, whenever you hear this word mentioned in a pre modern context, that you are being mislead in some fashion
Comment from : Rebecca

Shit I get it , was a humorous reference to the Arthurian legend…right?brAnd here I am answering like you were talking about ritual deposition of bronze objects in water during Iron Age

I only recently found your channel, so am going back through some of the back catalogue - so glad I've come across it!brbrThank you for the detailed content - especially going back to the Celts, as not something that was even touched in school!

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords IS a good basis for a system of government

Cry Havoc!, and let slip the dogs of war

Seems pretty sensible for bronze swords to hang around for a couple of centuries after iron became the hot stuff, after all they doesn't rust, are a pretty well known quantity and probably also rather cheap to acquire Heck, I certainly would have gotten me a bronze sword or two Even if I ended up not wanting it anymore, it makes for a good sacrifice too!

Very vague video

The sen’jin village music intro lmao Man of culture🤌🏻👍🏻
Comment from : norseman bushcrafting

To start, pretty certain the Neolithic peoples of Britain felt similar concerning those Bell Beaker folk arriving, leading to their being bred out of existence Genetic evidence is cool

You know a historical vid is going to be a banger when you hear the ck music in the intro
Comment from : Brandon Martinez

The parallel between how Britain became hooked on Roman goods in the same way the US has grown hooked on Chinese goods is not lost on me
Comment from : Sam Featherstone

While much more brutal there was something beautiful about ancient warfare Almost as if ut was faur, man on man, team on team Now you dont even see the enemy most of the time We should ban gunpowder and explosives lol
Comment from : Sam Featherstone

wowI just realized the Alps resemble a Greek kopis 🤔🤷
Comment from : sess

I can see the story of the Lady in the Lake coming from someone stumbling upon a skeleton in a lake that died clutching their sword and landing on the bottom in just the right way for their body to decay, while the sword was stuck tip up, so when the water evaporated a bit, all you would see is a skeletal hand seeming to hold a sword up out of the water 🤔🤷

Lolled when the music hit

Comment from : Kevin Wardle

Many misunderstand the relationship between bronze & iron Until you get to steel it wasn't all that much better Yes it was in some ways but less so in others Bronze seems to have been associated w/ the sun as well which gave it more significance However as far as performance iron basically only gave 1 major benefit in the beginning which is the fact that an empire need not worry about controlling both copper & tin mines in order to have access At least that is my 2 cents anyway

Comment from : Judith Beech

If you need charcoal to smelt iron, just wondering how steel wasn't discovered earlier?
Comment from : diecast jam

Can’t wait for the next instalment Awesome stuff!
Comment from : Tom Hamilton

Actually, the evidence for human sacrifice is scant More recent evidence suggests Lindo Man died by a blow to the head, which broke his neck The supposed garotte is actually now believed to be a necklace that dug into his skin The Romans often disparaged tribal religions as undertaking human sacrifice as an instrument of propaganda, especially when - like the Druids - the prevailing local religious leaders opposed them See Ronald Hutton's lectures about this

It's incredible that the feasting of this period still occurs to this day in the form of state dinners and garden parties

Will you continue during Sub-Roman Britain? Anglo-Saxon period? Norman period? Etc?
Comment from : Noah Tyler Pritchett

I wish this series would continue
Comment from : Paul Hoffmann

the Romans believed that Britain was either a mythological place, a separate continent or even the realm of the dead also Caesar went into Britain before conquering Gaul

Comment from : Idaho Plant Lady

Good documentary, very well put together but if I can give you a tip? On your modern day map you have Bamburgh on our North East coast of England titled as Bamborough, which is like a Northerner spelling Newquay as Newkey!

Comment from : TheBucketSkill

that the parisii 'chariot burial' sites in britain feature the chariots deconstructed rather than whole only tells us that 1) iron age brits, much like their modern descendants, typically owned vehicles that were only occasionally roadworthy and 2) that french chariots suffer even more than local ones from the effects of our weather
