(1:03:52) As a Texan and a huntsman I must correct this: The difference between Elk and Moose is one our European ancestor settlers brought from their own European culture in which "Elk" was the word used to refer to the European Red Deer, distinct from the smaller subspecies of European Roe Deer. Likewise, in America we have smaller deer like whitetail deer, mule deer, and pronghorn antelope which are distinct from the much larger Elk deer. The North American Moose which lives farther north than many Elk herds has a distinct phenotypical shape just like the Asian Moose including uniquely webbed antlers, unique extended snout/muzzle, and an oddly shaped larger body. We Americans call a moose, a moose, and it is very much what the rest of the world thinks of when they refer to a moose. Like the Asian Moose, it's the largest of the deer family and generally doesn't travel below a certain latitude. We call an Elk an Elk, because Elk are a smaller subspecies typically found farther south in the Pacific Basin and Rocky Mountains, while Moose are usually at higher latitudes beginning at the latitude of the Adirondacks, Dakotas, Yellowstone, and Washington (State) near the border with Canada. Elk are also known as "Wapiti" among the Natives. I believe it's the Comanche and Shoshone word for the North American Elk, but it may be a word other tribes use as well. Also of note, Moose tend to be solitary in their nomadic movements, while elk and other deer tend to roam in herds, leading to people in Canada and Alaska sometimes happening to come upon a lone Moose in the woods. Such an encounter can be dangerous, even in a vehicle as they'll charge sometimes. Elk will always run away from humans like other deer.

Didn’t you know that US usage is exactly opposite from European usage? 😊 In British English what you over there call a moose is referred to as an elk, Elch in German, älg in Swedish, elg in Danish, aso. As the species is indigenous in Europe and used to be present as far south as the alps up until around 1700 when the swamps were drained by humans, the European usage is the original one and somehow got switched around in the colonies. Your elk is our deer, which literally means animal. Internet: Although the elk (A. alces) was abundant, settlers did not identify it with the elk of Europe. Instead, they began calling it a moose, using a word borrowed from an Algonquian language of eastern North America. This left the name elk still available, and the English settlers gave it to a large deer, C.

In Hungarian, the word „ANIMAL" (in Hungarian „ÁLLAT”) had several meanings until the 19th century. It also meant the word animal, but it also meant the state of something. In folk songs, the antlers of the stag reach up to the sky and are covered with the light of shining stars, candles or the sun. The magnificent stag connects heaven and earth. Shamans wear deer antlers because they have a stronger connection to the sky than other people.

Greetings from the Ural region and an area close to the Sintashta Culture! Thank you very much for your work.

The part about crossdressing and Siberian influence - shamans usually impersonate the spirit that they are represnting. This is preserved in some Tibetan rituals as well. The shaman is meant to be representing a living female deity. It is unlikely there was any sexual context behind that.

Your videos are breathtaking as always. Keep it up.

"Tapaiti" is probably ultimately (via Latin) where we get the word for "tepide" or "tepid" - lukewarm... Gave me chills when I made that connection!

That's because, although STJ tends to keep them all separate as individual cultures, they all came from a common root stock of people, these cultures are separate and unique but also connected as branches to a trunk. These "root" people traveled across the world using boats and seeded their early cultures, and genes, everywhere. Oceans are not true barriers but rather travel "highways" as it is easier to travel by boat than traverse mountain peaks or deserts. However, this theory of a common seed people is usually against many archaeologists' theories whom prefer to keep most atomized.

Due to the interst I have in all the STJ videos, while I was watching this I was extremely serious. Then that shaman suddenly said *IT'S MA'AM!* and I had to pause the video until I finished to laugh. Perfect work as usual ;) Always onoring our ancestors exposing them to the public.
