This video is about the Aurignacian Culture, the first modern human culture to settle in Europe after the neanderthals. They hunted massive animals and made amazing art along the way. They are a fascinating culture. This video is the first in a series I am making about the upper Paleolithic.

Run up the likes people! Let’s get 10k! Check out my new website and maybe buy something! north02.com , I have a variety products with my logo and some with the lions from Chauvet! This is the best way you can support my channel directly. Otherwise, throwing this video a like and a comment is highly appreciated!!!
And a beautiful voice as well. And he pronounces Neanderthal correctly!

Not much different than I lived as a teenager in the Challis National Forest back in the 1960s. Mankind's basic nature has really not changed much. Where trees were plentiful, these ancient ancestors might have built sturdy shelters that have not survived the ages. Human nature is much the same. Only our technology has changed.
My favourite part about the aurignacian culture? Your documentary on them.
My favorite Aurignacian thing is probably Cussac with it's amazing engravings.
So nice to hear a real voice again after so many AI video's
You mean his other channels?
I've never understood this complaint against AI voices...why does that matter?...to me it's the information that's important
@@delculbert2175some of us like to hear his voice as we drift off to sleep 😂
@@delculbert2175you don't understand not liking listening to robot voices? And no it is notalways about the information. I don't believe you'd listen to someone screaming in a video every 3 or 4 minutes. That wouldtake you out of learning.
@@delculbert2175 Well if we remove all the problem of AI voices the technology itself is kind of primitive It can copy someone's voice for sure but it won't make them sound or even feel like the real deal
In a world of crummy pop sci and dramatized documentaries it's so nice to have you making factual, non gimmicky videos full of information about relatively obscure parts of prehistory. Obscure at least when it comes to what's usually depicted in documentaries.
no kidding
Who do you think it was in the furs playing with Spears lol…. North does it all.
agreed. I would argue that what I call "sensational" documentaries is very US in terms of editing genre. French and British documentary productions are very different in that aspect. Always foudn that interesting how it varies by culture
Well said. I agree.
@@princess-violetSeems to be a more recent (past 15-20 years) kind of development, a lot of earlier programming is more academic, before cable was ubiquitous. Also the documentary GOAT Ken Burns is relatively dry as well.
My dream is to never have to work again and just hang around all day watching videos like this and going hiking in the desert with my dog
So damn real
Heck yeah ❤
It's called retirement & it really is great, so plan well.
Replace desert with forest, and I agree 100 %.
Buy 60 dollars of qqq every day and in ten years walla
❤ one of my most favorite books is ' Clan of the Cave Bear' ...which is a series that is set exactly in this timeline when both neanderthals and modern humans were sharing the world. Excellent read. Well researched for accuracy of the lifestyle portrayed. I could get lost for months in those books!! Theres a movie,too...with Darryl Hanna as the star character😊❤ I love history! 😊
I read that book as a yute. It really fired my imagination. I think at the time I was thinking more about the protagonist, a hot blonde teenage girl. It just so happened my girlfriend at the time was exactly that girl, but in modern day. That title brought back so many memories of her, my first true love. Sighhhhhh....
These videos don't get nearly enough credit for being so high quality and full movie length. Great work, I absolutely love it and will watch the ones to come.
Definitely one of my favorite sleeping channels. I'm so thankful for each release, and that there isn't any loud background music/sounds.
I'm the same way. It's not that the videos are boring, quite the opposite. They're just so... soothing and comforting. My favorite content creator to relax to.
Very under-appreciated benefit of these videos. I'll usually fall asleep to one, wake up in the morning and go back to the last part I remember 😄
Right? It’s so fascinating and interesting but soothing and easy to understand.
@@v4k_foto716 Yes! this!
I rewatch older videos many a night, when new ones aren’t up. Always look forward to new videos
An hour and a half long video on prehistoric Europe? We’re eating good tonight boys
Fuck yes! Am in bed now actually feeling less suicidal already and it's only a few minutes in 😂❤
On the subject of timing pregnancy with the winter, it's my understanding that there is a lot of information on this subject. Women carrying tools which help them count months and become pregnant at the ideal time is something I've learned about on other channels. I would like to see a whole episode on this subject if you ever get the time to research it further.
What otjer channels please. Love this topic
As a student studying archeology I love your content
Get a real job
@@user-zl7uo3qf4da burger flipper is more of a real job than a neurosurgeon. The burger flipper should also get paid more than the neurosurgeon.
North02 one of my favourite channels 😊
What is a favourite?
Excited to see a new video from you. My favorite KZhead creator!
NORTH 02 VID DROPPED, hell yeah
This content creator is legitimately the most important and influential ever to me, he managed to cure my insomnia, which was ruining my life for years.
I "listen" on Spotify when I can't sleep. But, always return to learn
It sounds dramatic but it's so accurate. The calm music, the soothing voice, good audio mixing, interesting topic, and lack of overly flamboyant writing make it easy to just drift off without even realizing it
So happy it eventually uploaded! I really didn't wanna miss this one, amazing work as always😁
Thank you!
This is my favorite channel.😎🕺
Getting the notification on this upload made my entire day! Monday is better now. Thank you, NorthO2!
True what a great way to start the week 😊
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. For those fascinating, enlightening, yet spiritual journeys into the past. Life must have been harsh back then. Still, watching these presentations, I wonder if I'd be better off living such a life. In sync with nature. Seemingly primitive, yet so abundant.
Really professionally done. These long videos can go into so much depth and the images you choose are perfect. We are allowed to absorb the images as you narrate too. Fantastic.
I appreciate that I can hear you without loud fancy music drowning you out
It's a wonderful, if unproductive, Monday when both North02 and Dr. Wolfula both drop videos on YT! Who am I kidding? Nothing in the world could be more productive, mentally at least, than watching these masters of their craft do their thing. Prepare to be informed, y'all.
Babe wake up new North02 video just dropped ❤
Who are you commenting to? It's not just unoriginal, it's tired and dumb.
Hi! Big fan! I’m currently going through all of your videos! As a Christian, I’d only like to point out that there is plenty of room in our faith for longer time periods beyond the typical YEC model. Thanks for the time taken for these videos!
Lol, your the exception
Yes!! It’s a cerebral party when your videos come out. 👍🏼👍🏼
I have always found it amazing looking at photos or pictures of cave paintings. Especially how well done they and some how trying to understand what the story behind what they show could be. The handprint always has amazed me as they are basically they closest we will come to the person or people who made the paintings.
What a fantastic, in-depth exploration of the Aurignacian culture. It is a great service to arm-chair archeologists to see the technological differences between these continuous ancient peoples in order for us to understand that the "stone age" isn't just one long continuous, homogenic industry and culture. While technological variation was much slower than what we experience now (remember there was no wide-spread rapid way to transfer innovations that occurred) improvements and innovations did clearly happen, and were also responses to extreme climatic changes as well. Your work is very interesting, in-depth and arrayed with as many illustrations as have survived. In short, your work is not only educational but is very entertaining, and beautiful as well. I am very much looking forward to the next three parts of this series. Thank you so much for all your hard work and attention to detail. It is clear that an enormous amount of research went into the making of this documentary.
What an industrious video about archeological industry. I know I will enjoy it.
The quality of your productions has reached a new height! I was rapt the entire time, thank you so much for making this freely available 💙
I got in quick for once. Cheers bro ❤
Why does that matter?
@@slappy8941 it doesn’t . And it didn’t warrant a response from you
Wow. Thank you so much for this video and your channel as a whole. Your hard work is much appreciated and respected. I have been watching your channel for several years now and never miss a chance to recommend it to whoever will listen. Your channel is a treasure, so thank you again, seriously. I am beyond excited to see the upcoming installments in your series. Please continue to enrich the lives of all of us who love knowledge, especially of obscure and neglected parts of our history. Greetings from North Florida!
Great video, interesting information. I’ll probably watch this a dozen times while waiting for the next in the series
Makes me wish I could have listened to this kind of content when i was a kid. Loved yhis kinda stuff then and I still do. Amazing work you do for these videos. I cant thank you enough
This is my favorite part of humanity. Curiosity and answerseeking for the sake of common knowledge. Thank you North02
YESSSSS!!!!! A series! And I’ve never heard of #2 or 4! I LOVE learning, even at 49, my brain always wants more…
One of the fascinating aspects of ice age hunters was their height. Average height of Aurignacian males was 5'11 and their successors, the Gravettians, were even taller at average height of 6'. This is in stark contrast to modern hunter gatherer societies and is tall even by the standards of 21st century Western industrialized nations. Imagine the hardy mental and physical fitness of subsistence hunters prowling the inhospitable wastelands of Ice Age Europe unstunted by childhood malnutrition and allowed to reach full physical potential. Those dudes must have been the Chaddest Chads who ever Chadded.
Which explains why they took Anatolian farmers as brides when they arrived.
Oh, shut up.
The genetic evidence proves they did though, regardless of what you think.
Birds of a feather should flock together if not you get lots sqauks
And I thought indo aryans were awesome with 5'9 average height
Love the vids! Keppe em coming
Absolutely mesmerising! Can't wait for the next episode.
Wow, this was great dude, Nice research and you're genuine interest shows. I came up with like 30 phallus-related jokes as you mentioned the prevalence of them in (pre)history. They all came up short though, as though they were too small. LOL :)
Happy hour! You're videos are amazing, probably said it before, but I say it again. They are made so smooth it feels like watching ones favorite TV-series, instead of hardcore facts. Great ability to convey knowledge! Thank you 🙏🙏
Oh was so anticipating this new doc. Thank you so much ❤
Great presentation. Learned alot about the Upper Paleolithic.The innovation,and the ways these populations adapted to changing environments, and major changes in climate.
I look forward to the next pieces of this series. Love your work.
Amazing start for what's sure to be an epic series!!
This series is going to ROCK! Love what you do.
Im glad you got merch now. I will definitely become one of your best customers. Absolutely fantastic channel.
"Before we cover the content of these images, let's first enjoy these works without interpretation." You are a real one for this, and many other aspects of the video!
Wow! This is true KZhead gold! An amazing topic with amazing narration - this is a gem I look forward to having the time to immerse myself in! Thanks, mate!
Quality video about one of my favorite periods in history, thanks brother☀️
55:32 I imagine that at this point in most human cultures, particularly skilled Craft/Artist were so highly valued that like Shaman their worth to their communities went beyond how skilled they were as hunters, gatherers or fighters. Hence they would have their basic resources needed for life taken care of by the community so they could continue their specialized activities.
Very informative and satisfying. Thank you.
man i'm so watching this tonight. thanks for your work!
Thank you for putting in the work, every video is a certified banger imho.
Fantastic video so far (I’m about 20 mins in when writing this)! I love that you’re putting in more visuals in here. Keep that! I admire that you’re continuing to improve your craft, and keep it up!
HOLY CRAP OH MY GOD I WAS LITERALLY LOOKING FOR A VIDEO EXACTLY LIKE THIS 4 DAYS Ago I love this channel, i love History ❤ Yessssss!
Thank you for this excellently produced and informative video!
Proper looking forward to the upcoming episodes!
Thank you, I am always impressed by your presentation.
That was wonderful! And thank you for making a nice long video that I can really get involved in. So much information. It's amazing how much can be learned about a society that lived so long ago. A special thank you for showing the paintings in Chauvet Cave. I fell in love with a painting of a lion that looked liked it was smiling. 😊
My favourite topic! If I had the chance to go back in time... Great work! Thanks for your efforts! Always looking forward to watching your videos!
Top notch video. Excellent narration with good mix of vid clips, still photos & drawings. Keep'em coming!
Ive missed your videos lots! You can rewatch old ones only so many times before it starts to feel repetitive. I really love your content!
Impressive, I always learn so much from your videos! I can't wait for the next one in this series!
It's like a reward when north02 uploads🙌🙌🙌
thanks for this series - it's really tough to learn more about these early cultures
Best historical/archaeological channel bro
Thank You, very useful information and a great video.
always good to see you upladed
Love your work North 02, and I also would love a video focused on early calendars/ seasonal counting and pregnancy. 🌙
First video I’ve watched from you, I have a feeling I’m going to love this channel. Excited for the rest of this series!
This channel is awesome. If you like pre-history this will be a favorite
First of all, I really appreciate your effort to cover the Upper Paleolithic. I have always been especially drawn to the archaeology of this Period. More importantly, I wanted to comment on the quality of your documentary. This is my first visit to your page, and I am so impressed with the quality of what you've uploaded. The level of detail is absolutely amazing. It must have taken you a tremendous amount of time to research all of the information that you've presented here. Also, your presentation is wonderful. Great flow, great writing, perfect amount of background music (e.g., low key and only for emphasis or segue), and the narration is very good - great delivery, authentic tone, and a great voice, too. I am really looking forward to the next uploads in this series. Thank you North 02
I sooo needed this today.. thank you so much for all your hard work.. you do a great job, and consistently make quality content that somehow manages to improve, even though it was already excellent.. your work is truly appreciated.. thank you.. ATB😊
I love your videos and the stories they tell. I have to admit that today's technology is incredible. The only thing I noticed that took away from your film was the fake beards. It's the first time I've ever noticed them in one of your videos. Please, please keep making these, I'm absolutely fascinated with this time period and just can't get enough! Thanks for all your work.
Really enjoying your channel and content. Looking forward to seeing the next instalment! All the best Jules 💕
Incredible! comprehensive and very well done. you have a lot planned but i hope eventually you make one that includes the highlights of each and how they all fit together.
Great stuff thank you!
Saw this uploaded while i was at work. Can finally watch it and I already know it’s gonna be amazing
Yeah I figured Monday morning most would be busy
Yaaaayyyyy a new vid!!!! So excited to watch this🥳🥳🥳
What a great video! I can't wait for the Gravettian upload 🤠
Your work is truly remarkable. I'm watching from Kenya.
I absolutely adore this channel ❤ hugs from Australia and thank you so much for tour amazing work
This is just fabulous, thank you so much
i freaking love this video! and i love your recreations of Aurignacian clothing and stone and organic tools
Hand sewn by yours truly🤝
Wake up babe, another North02 video dropped! (your videos are so well done thank you for the great content as always❤)
Wow, such an edgy and original comment.
Bro, let her sleep, she was busy with me last night
So glad I found this channel. Really nice well produced videos
Greetings! I loved your video. Subscribed. Very well done, thank you. All the best, Billi.
I'll be following you. Keep it up, my long lost anthropology prof!
love the real human voice, great work north 02
Another great video from north …
fantastic video! what a gem to find in the sea of garbage mass-produced AI youtube documentaries. i love listening to someone who actually ENJOYS the info lol
It makes such a difference 😊
I really enjoyed this! Looking forward to the gravettian video
What a calm and well thought video on this fascinating topic. You earned a subscriber good sir
Great documentary! I will binge watch all you content! Keep them coming :)
Greetings from Swabia! Thanks for the video.
Great video. You do a lot to help bring these ancient humans to life. I really liked the way you described their cultural gatherings. I imagine it must have been like a festival of a kind, able to bring together members from different tribes and clans to share news and ideas, and maybe make plans for the future as well as the population grew and the culture spread. It seems very human despite the vast gulf of time and genetics.
Great narration and i enjoyed this topic! New discoveries are happening, i appreciate the explanation.
Another fantastic video!!!! I love this channel so much. I really appreciate the content and well researched material. Top notch stuff to be sure.🕺😎
Thanks so much. Loved the cave art ..incredibly well done. They had some true visual artists in their midst. See u next one. Thanks so much i say..❤.Ciao
Thank you for this excellent video! Your channel rocks.
I love your videos very much man keep it coming👍
Brilliant production!!! This was a true joy to watch and learn information about the Aurignacian Culture. Very well presented for a non scientist like me to absorb. Well done!!
We assume there was little innovation for thousands of years. Woodworking innovations wouldn’t have survived, however. Wood is easier to work than stone, so it may have had more experiments. The arrowhead fit to the wood haft could be a hint about this, although it’s impossible to prove without new techniques to research organic remains. “Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.”
