Herodotus openly admitted that he recorded what people said more often than digging for deeper facts, because he was keenly interested in the stories people told. In essence, Herodotus wasn't the world's first historian, he was the world's first folklorist.

And that is pretty much how history was told back then. Unlike today, facts and fiction weren't separated. Long before writing stories were told from person to person. And since storytellers tend to embellish a bit, over thousands of years things got a bit exaggerated. In most historical reports is a piece of truth and a lot of flavour to make the truth seem more amazing.

One thing that’s important to note is that it’s very hard to judge distance and scale across featureless expanses of water. We typically rely on objects in the distance to help us interpret both. If I see a tree the size of an acorn on a hilltop to the east, and one the size of a barley grain to the west, I can guess the eastern hill is probably closer. I can also judge the size of a temple on either hillside in reference to the trees around them. This is impossible when what you are looking at is two large statues on a featureless lake-something the original architects probably knew, and might even have been counting on. I also wonder if, after many years, Herodotus just remembered poorly?

It's a testament to how skilled Egyptian engineers (and those in other societies) are that even the real structures, a fraction of the size of what Herodotus exaggerated, are still so impressive. If they still existed today, they'd likely still be a huge attraction, and rightfully so. I'd certainly drool over a 60 foot tall monumental sculpture of Moctezuma or Pacal if that still existed in Mexico today.

On the other point dolphins tend to be quite social with humans and they are well aware that humans suck at swimming so there are modern reports of folks occasionally getting rescued by dolphins so I don't think it's unreasonable to except that he had probably heard one true account of that happening.

In a way, he was the most trustworthy historian ever, because he didn't omit anything. My man had what he was told about the place to work with, and by Olympus he was gonna write it. My favourite case of him actually speaking the truth is about the number of Athenian casualties at Marathon. Which were 192. and we know that, because there is a mass grave monument there. Awesome.

To be fair to old Herry, it's especially difficult to judge the height of tall things by sight alone because there's no parallax (eyes are side by side) and we can't see details at a distance (including up or down). I recently studiously estimated a waterfall at 90 ft... which is measured at over 150.

Ancient Egypt has been a fan favourite of mine since I was little (specifically the culture like architecture, theology, language, fashion and crafts, and the environment, not conquests or warring) but it has turned into a full-on obsession around 5 years ago.

It is so weird to consider that much of what we think of when we think ancient Egypt was old even by Herodotus' time.

Quick question: When you give the measurements used by Herodotus, were those translated into actual modern Imperial/Freedom units, or are they still in the Ancient Greek units? Because (keep in mind I just went off a quick google here), a 600 podes ('podes'=Greek for feet) tall pyramid could end up being anything from 580 to 640 modern feet tall, depending on which podes you're using!

@krankarvolund7771

Жыл бұрын

580 to 640 feet is not a bif difference ^^' There's 20mm difference between the bigger greek pous and the modern imperial foot, that's less than an inch, it stayed relatively consistant ^^ And he probably used egyptian feet that are 4mm short of the modern imperial foot.
