Honestly a perfect video. Prehistoric human stuff always makes me emotional :'), and coming into this video I expected to know most of the content from my own research, but I learned a lot! Great sources, well articulated thoughts, great illustrations, and the perfect amount of humor! I especially appreciate your exasperation with the whole "adolescent boy" thing, and against the Victorians in general. In the morning I'll probably share this video with some of my history friends if they're interested.

Hahahaha "grown ass women" love it!!! I love this take on the cave art!! And such a wonderful and informed and well made video! There's so much knowledge and research on display here! And the integration of multiple fields and depth of said research into each related field is so well integrated! Thank you so much for putting this together and linking to it on bluesky!

As a female self taught air brush artist - I can say it takes a hell of a lot of time and practice to make things work. When you get there, the experience lets your talent shine

Thank you for this thoroughly-researched video. It's great to have a trained artist's perspective on cave art. I'm a medievalist and examine artefacts for a local museum, and time after time you see how Victorians were "fixing" the past to correspond with their preconceptions, genuinely believing that they were doing the right thing.

Your videos are great! You deserve way more views!

I cant believe more people haven't seen this video, it was extremely informative and thought provoking, thank you!

Thank you! I'm, uhhh, not much of a self-promoter. I'm really glad you found the video and enjoyed it. It was a pleasure to make. (Looks at view count). 472 was actually a lot more than I was expecting, so woo!

Gaaah the neolithic era is so cool!!! Thank you for putting this together

Agriculture making human life collectively better but individually worse! What an elegant and synced way of putting it!

Thanks for an educational video that puts women where they should be. In the fore front of history. Not a side note. Too long we have looked at history through a male dominated lens. You should not twist facts to fit your story. The facts speak for themselves. Thanks for doing the work to accomplish this great video.

Hiya!!! you know how when ur painting but you re too close to the canvas and then you step away and really see whats happening? this did exactly that for me, ive been reading academic papers and researching and researching for my own litle project and was soooo sure of everything but this video was so well articulated and talked about stuff that was obvious but not written down you know? if that makes sense, anyways it made me see the whole thing from afar which is an insane contribution, i can not thank you enough for this, i hope everything is magnificent have a great one!!!

Wow. Airbrush technology goes back way further than I'd thought.

I found some shows.a sabre tooth tiger following a adult mammoth on the reverse is a baby mamoth.its super detailed they used natural features n the rock and also use shadows.so a shadow from one direction shows the image doing diff things the diff way the light hits..they also used the rock type to bring out features.on this piece it's a type of yellow jasper so this variety has streaks on this rock the stripes make stripes on the tiger.i have pics if anyone wpuod like to see..the only thing that is obvious is that they obviously saw these extinct animals or else how could they did the detail.it also exhibits the best technologies and methods..it shows fluting grinding leveling and flaking all around. Any thoughts..my find is from western pa and figure they came this way from the sequannahna river.

background music is ridiculously inappropriate NO Dobros in the Paleolithic !
