What is the most amazing about this is remembering that they lived at the bottom of history. They didn't have eons of civilizations to tell them how they should live, they didn't have ancient ancestors so old they were forgotten. They were the first (or nearly the first). How extra terrifying it must have been to watch civilization fall. Did they wonder if humans would ever rise up again? Did they wonder if this was the end of cities and farming? One could easily see how they may have been scared that this great experiment of civilization was about to fail forever.

I am in love with this Channel! I wish i had those when i was a kid and studying world history.

I just finished watching this podcast not once....but twice! I must confess your voice and the actors' voices are just perfect! I had my first contact with the Sumerians at age 12, 43 years ago, in my first year of high school. I was mesmerized then...and I am even more now, having all this information I did not have in 1980. I don't know what it is about them....as I feel the same for the Babylonians and Hammurabi. I am just fascinated with them. I know that only 10% of the cuneiform language has been translated so far on the plaques that have been dug out....imagine! If only I could live forever just to see what could be translated in the next 50 years and how much more we will learn about them!!!! The last poem on the destruction of the Sumerians hardly feels distant to me. On the contrary, it feels as raw and close as human beings will ever be.

Greed, plunder, and war still run the world. Sometimes they are just named something different. Plunder is sometimes called central banking, or infrastructure loans. War is sometimes called intervention or kinetic military action. Greed has become the norm as success is invariably tied to money. Slavery is now called property tax and fractional reserve banking. Brainwashing is called entertainment. For those of us in developed nations, we no longer fear the tribe running at the gates, we fear the tribe hiding behind them. They have most of the wealth, regardless of your share, and they let you keep the shiny things as a parent puts a pacifier in a babies mouth. Feeling sad yet? 😉

I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: 'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. Percy Shelley

You give the most information out of all the Sumarian documentaries! From everything I have learned your series has the most information! You are awesome

Geeze, I see I'm late to the party, but wowee bud, this was fascinating start to present (I'm about halfway,) with no concern for the remainder. I think most notable to me, is how the more things change, the more they stay the same. Disgruntled skilled labor commiserating over a vat of after-work communal Loogie coulis, 30% or greater rates of interest, derision and morality judgements on the lower classes. Drinking songs! Just incredible. It's like you're holding up a mirror; just without the shoulders of past technologies.

Doc Craven 100% agree, the detail this chap has researched is unbelievable. Well done, m8. 👍👍😀

Hands down one of the best channels on KZread. Thanks so much.

Probably the best history documentary of it's kind.

I really enjoy your presentation of historical information (which can be, for me, a bit confusing at times) Today I am walking away feeling like I just encountered a boat full of "Sea Peoples" on a Mediterranean shoreline! Thank you.

I am truly grateful for your work! This documentary is very well done.. Informative, interesting, entertaining! Absolutely well done! Just discovered the channel. I will continue with the series, this time starting at nr. 1. Once again, thank you!

I absolutely LOVE THESE PODCASTS!!! One small quibble, though....No mention of Uru-ka-gina/Uru-inim-gina of Lagash, maybe history's first great lawgiver.

I love all these podcasts my favourite so far has been the Aztec one🙂 it’s nice to find a non-American history podcast

Agreed! You and Dan have no equal so far. Dan's are more intense. His voice and delivery is pretty intense. Yours are much more relaxing and so informative and well-researched. Hats off to you.

I just binged all your stuff. Very good, keep it up.
