NOMAD BLACKSMITHING: XIONGNU, TURKS, MONGOLS. ALL PARTS
How did medieval Eurasian steppe nomads -Mongols, Xiongnu, Scythians, Huns, Magyars, Turks and more- produce metal weapons and armour? Could they? What did these furnaces look like? How did they supply them? In this series, we give an overview on this matter and answer as many of these questions as we can. This is a compilation of my three videos on this topic.

This is the compilation of my previous three videos on nomad blacksmithing, for those who wanted to listen to the entire thing in one go, as a few people requests. I have not added new footage to this, so if you have already watched it don't feel the need to sit through it again. 01:44 Organization of Steppe Societies 03:40 Cities of the Steppe 07:15 Earliest Evidence for Steppe Metallurgy 09:34 Extraction and Production 12:26 Fuel, Charcoal and Estimates 17:16 PART 2: FROM THE XIONGNU TO THE TURKS 18:02 the Xiongnu 23:51 the Xianbei 23:35 Gokturks and Uyghurs 32:43 PART 3: KHITANS AND MONGOLS 33:29 Khitan Liao and Jurchen Jin 37:50 Cast Iron and Coal 42:27 The Mongol Empire

Bruv, can you do a series on Mongols vs Baghdad? Like a Game of Thrones series but docu-like or what you usually do.. Would be cool to see how each of these empires developed and lead into that collison course which is the Siege of Baghdad.. God I hope there will be a tv series about this.. also the Persian empire.. cant find any good movies about these empires :(

It is not related but did Timur ever attack Moscow? Some websites on the internet and ChatGPT and Bard say he attacked in 1395.

@@RandomGuy-df1oy he did not attack Moscow. There was I believe only one or two Rus' cities he attacked, if I remember correct. But Moscow was quite a ways off of his journey, and not something he had to be concerned with. The point of the campaign was to break the power of the Golden Horde since it posed a threat to the Timurid state. Moscow and the Rus' principalities did not and were not worth the trouble. Even if he did march to Moscow, there wasn't going to be much to destroy since it was still rebuilding from when Toqtamish burnt it down in the 1380s
Fun fact: initially this was supposed to be one 20 minute video, which ended up being too long to reasonably work into, so I split it into three. And now it has returned into one video.

It was said that knowing the potential of any iron objects in Mongolia turning into weapon and production, The Manchu Qing Empire banned or minimized transport of iron objects to Mongolia.
Excellent job

The thing about these nomads? these nomads never seems to have a coastal cities or cities on a bug lake like the Caspian sea or coastal area. the nomads needed was one coastal city in order to manufactures metals or weapons

Hello Jackmeister, I have noticed in your videos you have tons of history books in the background. I am looking into getting some history books to learn about mongol history. Do you have any recommendations and which are the most informative? I really want to learn about the different tribes and origins of the mongols as well as the mongol empire itself with the great khans. Thanks

I hope to go within the next few years. I had been looking into it basically just as the pandemic hit, so there went those plans. Now I am doing my PhD, so it is harder to fine the time, but I suspect I will find an opportunity to go out there for a conference at some point.

A genetic study published in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology in November 2007 examined of 17 individuals buried at the Murong Xianbei cemtery in Lamadong, Liaoning, China ca. 300 AD. They were determined to be carriers of the maternal haplogroups B, C, D, F, G2a, Z, M, and J1b1. These haplogroups are common among East Asians, and to a lesser extent Siberians. The maternal haplogroups of the Murong Xianbei were noticibly different from those of the Huns and Tuoba Xianbei.[17] 7 mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences from Tuoba Xianbei remains in Dong Han period were analyzed. Together with the Data of Xiongnu published, the genetic affinities between Tuoba Xianbei and Xiongnu were analyzed in genetic diversity, haplogroup status, Fst genetic distances, phylogenetic analysis and multidimentional scaling (MDS) analysis. The results indicated that the Tuoba Xianbei presented the closer affinities to the Xiongnu, which implied that there was the gene flow between Tuoba Xianbei and Xiongnu during the 2 southward migrations. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17905712/ Whereas the Hunas from about 450 were Turkic in language. sai.columbia.edu/files/sai/content/Ahmed%20-%20Trautmann%2C%20Ch.%209%20Turks%20and%20Mughals-1_0.pdf In the Hunno-Bulgarian languages /r/ within a consonantic cluster tends to disappear projects.iq.harvard.edu/files/huri/files/vvi_n4_dec1982.pdf Turkic Speaking Huns books.google.com.tr/books?id=YKPaLi1d1O4C&pg=PA6&dq=&hl=tr&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjO4tibh5HpAhWKw6YKHaKtA_UQ6AEINDAC#v=onepage&q=&f=false (Oxford University Press) The language of the European Huns is sometimes referred to as a Bulghar Turkic variety in general linguistic literature, but caution is needed in establishing its affiliations.
