If only all his historiography was so admirable.

Herodati?

I love this way of presenting history, where you pick a theme instead of just going over an event

Great to see you again, I always enjoy your videos. The hit and miss of what information survived the repeated cataclysms of history is fascinating: Bits of Hanno's journey; Recipe for Roman fish sauce; Half a Greek play; Inventory of a Mesopotamian merchant. It all combines into a rich tapestry, but the full reality of our ancient past would probably blow our minds.

Just subbed to you! Love your videos, keep on and i'll watch!😊

Thanks for another amazing video! You deserve way more views. Keep up the great work!

best history youtuber 🏆

I genuinely get excited when you post a video, because it's always good :D Africa is a cornucopia of interesting history. Sadly for Africans, history just keeps happening there

Congrats on 5k subs! 🎉

Richard Burton found the source of the Nile.

Hi Generic History I know this comment might be out of nowhere but I was wondering if you had any book recommendations on Spartan society and economics. Their society really interests me and I'd love to learn more. thanks

Paul Cartledge is a pretty good author for Spartan history. He published a book on them 2002 that I read a few years ago and really enjoyed.

The ancient Egyptians I believe had a pretty good idea of the source of the Nile. So they must have looked.

Always remember.. settle for your impalement the first chance you get.
