Day in the life of a eygptian or malian

"A ship was immediately dispatched to Mytilene to countermand the execution order sent out the previous day. The Mytilenean representatives in Athens offered a sizable reward to the crew if the ship arrived in time to prevent the executions. Rowing day and night, sleeping in shifts, and eating at their oars, the rowers of the second trireme managed to make up the first ship's one day lead and arrive at Mytilene just as Paches was reading the original order, in time to prevent its execution." - Wikipedia page on Mytilenean revolt, Thucidides account

In case anyone was wondering, the second ship rowed much faster than the first ship whose crew was in no rush to carry out their gruesome task. The second ship managed to catch up with the first ship on the shore of Mytilene, narrowly stopping the massacre with mere minutes to spare.

The first ship was not being rowed fast because the people on board needed their strength for a massacre. On the other hand, the second ship was rowed as fast as possible as they needed to stop a massacre.

As a Greek student who has been taught about the Peloponnesian war at school an awful amount of times, I find this way of learning about it much more interesting than just reading straight from a book. You focus on the main events of the war and also get to see what everyday life was like back then. I wish classes were more like that, students would be way more interested in the subject Great video though ~

I love Ted-Ed’s content on Roman and Greek histories, classics, and myths. The animation and clear narration makes these types of stories accessible to people who would otherwise consider it dry content

I live in Mytilene and its nice to see that you mentioned us. But there is something wrong here: Mytilenians did not betray their alliance with Athenians. Athenians instead controlled the alliance in a harsh way towards its members, forcing them to pay annually either by giving money or ships. Mytilene and other cities protested trying to leave the alliance but Athenians didnt let them, and ended up violently stopping them as it was mentioned in the video.

There is an over emphasis on democracy in Athens, while not much is mentioned about the temples and religion of common people. How come parliament was not set on the Acropolis of Athens then? We all know about the Parthenon.

This is a great video with alot of reasearch and hard work done. The only small thingy that is wrong is the translation from ancient Greek to English. "Τοίς αγορεύσει βούλετε;" means "Who wants to talk?" not "Who wants to address the assembly?". But other than that very small mistake everything other is perfect.
