I love this civilization because it is one of the most advanced bronze age civilizations that existed
This is great!! I love mycenaean greece, and it was amazing to see the video. From Argentina
Wow! Absolutely breathtaking to think of all the ancient people to have passed through that gate! Love this period in history, a true age of heroes.
I love this period of history, and there are so many things in this video that I haven't seen before. Thanks so much!
Very well done! Excellent narration!
Yes the site of mycenae had the citadel and the town below and sorrounded by outher city wall . Yes there was around 30.000 people living in mycenae. 10.000 people lived in citadel. They were most associated with the kings royal court and the palace as royal scribes servants and more . While around remaining 20.000 lived in the town below
One of the greatest civilization - Mycenaean - Once this place was a powerful kingdom, been here and the place breathes history
Excellent work! I love learning about Mycenaean citadels.
Great channel, I love this part of history and what came before, the Minoan civilization 😊. Thanks for making this, easy to listen to and understand .
This video is so well put together! Thank you
The Magical Greeks. Amazing music too. What music is in the background ?
Hey Xivok. The song we used is called "Syncope" by "Dear Gravity" -James
Amazing video. Great job. Thank you
Wonderful work. Thank you for passing this knowledge.
Thanks so much for making this video. It helped me so much
Those circular twirling symbols really remind me a lot of other bronze age finds from Germanic and Celtic Europe, very interesting! I guess Indo-European culture was still fairly close back then.
Nice tour, thank you so much!
Beautiful and so inspiring
Subscribed. Bronze Age Greece was always my favorite ⚔
I am in love with this channel. It is great and so very detailed. I taught history and am such a passionate lover of architectural history, the more ancient the better. Thanks for the work you have put into these videos as they are wonderful. Have subbed and shared.
I visited in '71. It was amazing! Even better, I was the only one there.
Great content! 👍 Going here in a matter of weeks now.
Thank you sir for the video. Subscribed.
So awesome! Thank you ! I just have a new Bucket list place to visit! Very interesting!
Im too broke to go see it myself thanks for the video lol

A few years ago, NASA announced that they are using the ancient Serbian calendar because it is the most accurate, that it is completely harmonized with nature, that the beginning of the seasons according to that calendar coincides with the electromagnetic changes of the Sun, lake water is changing ph level to acidic or alkaline on exact date.
Just impressive what they did in their time all by hand. I feel like so much knowledge is slowly being lost as we've passed into the mechanized era. A shame it is. All the creativity with it gets lost too.
its a shame that there wasn't at least some reconstruction of the Mycenaean citadel as Arthur Evans did in the Minoan palace of Crete
Seemingly,seen now the face/head of lion gate broken.Luckily enough I had seen the photo before it was broken,then able to me to compare with lion face/head carved metal of my almost curve blade.It's very much similar.
That sword with the double headed lions facing each other on the hilt is GIGANTIC for a bronze sword. Hell the other ones to the left of it have several really long ones too, but damn. That's crazy.
That was the one that impressed me the most when I was at the museum. Totally like something out of a fantasy novel. -James
Amazing stuff. Too bad we can't send some drones back to them and bring them back. That would be amazing footage!
World first cultures Lepenski Vir (Iron Gates) starts 11500 BC, Starcevo culture starts 6200 BC, Vinča culture starts 5700 BC, today Serbia. Cucuteni culture starts 4800 BC, Varna culture starts 4500 BC. World first industrial revolution ca. 6000 BC. Bronze metallurgy. (BBC History news March 2010) Gordon Childe-The Danube in Prehistory, Jacque Pirenne-Agriculture at Danube Farming start about 6000 BC. Vinca First Calendar start to count years at 5508 BC. (Now in 2024 we have year 7532) Farming wouldn’t be possible without knowledge of calendar. Both development started and developed together. Harald Harman about first cyrillic writings in Vinca culture in 5500 BC so 2000 years before any writings anywhere else on the world. Vinca Iron production 1400 BC. In today English language there is more than 2000 same or similar Serbian words. Names of the Balkan tribes: Pelasgians, Mycenaeans, Etruscan, Wendi, (Wendisch museum in Cottbus, Germany) Illiyrians, Macedonians, Dardanians (Original Troy is here, not in Turkey, Homer wrote sea is freezing in the winter-Panonian sea), Moesians, Dacians, Thracians, Rasci, Celts, Scythians, Sarmatians, Arians, Sea People, Peleset, Philistines, Hittites, Bhrygians. Tribes spread in all directions all over Europe and Asia ……. Wild Greeks arived ~ 1000 BC from Egipt, Hungarian from Asia and Bulgars from Asia they found culture on the Balkans, writings and language and they mixed with domestic people. 18 Roman emperors were born in Serbia because of Etruscan connection. After Trojan war many groups of people left Troy in all directions to middle Europe, northern Europe to Britain and Scandinavia, south to Anatolia.One group under Aeneas sat sail with 22 ships and about 3400 followers and reach Italy-Etruscans. Proto serbian language is older than Sanskrit, Greek, Latin or all western Europian languages. Plato confirms in his work The Dialogues of Plato-Cratylus the Greeks used Pelasgian (Proto Serbian) to develop their own language.
wow , bullshido history master here , go back to your tree
Nice video, thanks for making it! It always amazes me how people back then where able to design and construct those great structures without any formal knowledge of physical laws, mathematical formulas etc. And not only that, but they made them so good, that they're still standing almost 17000 years later! From our current, advanced, civilisation what would still be up in the year 19021? Probably nothing, but the Parthenon, the tombs in Mycenae, the Pyramids will still exist :)
It is pretty awesome. Glad you enjoyed it! -James
Similar engineering was going on widely in Sardinia with the Nuragic Civilization.
Now I'm so obsessed with ancient Greeks/Greece culture because of assassin's creed odyssey.lol
Love what Assassins Creed did! -James
Hello I am making a replica of the sword shown at timestamp 5:20. I was hoping that someone might be able to find and post a more detailed picture of the griffins on the blade. Thanks
a -very- distant few of the oceans...
Named because Perseus found a mushroom on the site... hmm, that must have been some eye opening mushroom huh.
He was smoking a Peyote.
It's so distressing to me that the bodies were removed from their graves
what was the year of the Greek helmet?
1300 bce
where are the roman baths you mentioned? can you spell it please, thanks for your video ^_^
Hey Steveien, The town is called "Baiae". You may find that the dome for the baths is (confusingly) sometimes referred to as the "Temple of Mercury", but as far as I can tell the large dome was actually part of the public baths. -James
My God! The archaeology looks South American!
First World Empire: Nimrod-God Bacchus: 2025-2000 BCE. The creation of the First World Empire started from Nis, (Naissus) Serbia. Bocharti says that Nimrod’s army became known as Aryans. This is because Nimrod’s army consisted of professional hunters; the God of hunting in Serbian mythology is called Arion: consequently, we get Arions / Aryans. (Samuelis Bocharti) Nimrod’s wife Semiramis constructed in Babylon first world wonder Tower of Babylon mentioned in Old Testament. Second World Empire: Serbo Makeridov: 1330-1300 BCE. The creation of the Second World Empire started from south Serbia. Alexander the Great tell us that there was a second world conquest which started from Naissus (Nis, Serbia) and which was led by the God Serbon: a great leader who was proclaimed a divinity-Quintus Rufus. Eusebii Pamphili claims that Serbon fought the Indians ca.1325 BCE and afterwards he built another Naissus at the Indus river, this was the city where Alexander the Great encountered Serbs according to Quintus Rufus and Pamphili (Ptolemaeus Eusebii). Troy: 2000-1184 BCE. Dardania to day Serbia. Third World Empire: Alexander the Great: 336-323 BCE. Son of King Philip the Great Karanovic and mother Olympia daughter of King Neotolomay Molosses from Serbo-Rasa tribe. (Ulrich Wilcken, Gustave Glotz) The creation of the Third World Empire started from south Serbia. Fourth World Empire: Roman Empire: Etruscan organized Roman Empire and eastern Roman Empire and 18 Emperors are from today Serbia Constantine the Great also born in Nis (Naissus). Following the 3rd Century Crisis (290s AD onward, the Empire was feeling less secure and thus there was a need for strong military leaders to take charge. Many Roman noblemen and statesmen were born in present-day Serbia, including 17 or 18 Roman Emperors (Vetranio wasn't universally recognized as an emperor, but was proclaimed a caesar).[2]

your Sound is HORRIBLE!!!!!
Minoans and Mycenaeans were not Dorians, Spartans and Ionians, a Pelasgian Illyrian Albanian race, native to Balkan and Italy. Minoans and Mycenaeans were an Anatolian brown race, they were not the natives of South Europe. They were a dark, brown race worshipping snakes in Anatolia. Dorians, Ionians and Spartans were a Pelasgian Illyrian Albanian race. Myceneans built big wall around south Greece, from who were they afraid of? I guess the Spartans, living in someone else's lands is dangerous.
They were all greeks Albanian deal with it🤫
Divine Greece , long live Hellas.
Hahaha... garbage.
Sheethe, cope.
What else? The earth is flat? Humans live in the sun? Enlighten us glorious Albanian , master of the knowledge, light bringer, super human Albanian.
