Titus was a shrewd man adapting to the demands of his place and situation. Fair minded but pragmatic, with a view to his own advancement and that of his family. In the context of Roman society his actions are reasonable and necessary for success.

The Flavian Dynasty are one of the most fascinating families of history. Quite the rise.

"...to the God Titus, son of the God Vespasian; from the Senate and the People of Rome..." ~inscribed upon the Triumphal Arch of Titus Flavius, standing in Rome to this day. Ever wonder what that means? I did.... Josephus spent his life preaching that Vespasian [the wasp] was literally the messiah, the Christ, foretold of by the prophetic scriptures of the Jews.... Therefore, it was doubly so for Titus, who believed he had won the title of "Christ" (" the anointed") by defeating the Jewish rebellion, destroying both Jerusalem and the Temple, ending the War at Masada, on Passover, in 73 CE. "Wars of the Jews, and the Destruction of Jerusalem" should be required reading. The typology and parallels to be found between it and the 4 Gospels is endlessly fascinating....and eye-opening.

excellent upload

Titus was a very underrated emperor. As Vespasian's son he took over the war in Judea and put down the Jewish rebellion by capturing Jerusalem and bringing back to Rome unimaginable riches that funded the construction of the Colleseum. He inagurated the opening of the Colleseum with many gladiatorial games and wild animal specticles that lasted for days. He oversaw the relief efforts of Pompeii and Herculaneum, contributing much of his personal wealth to the cause, and he only reigned two years before he died.

Wow - really good stuff, well balanced, very good presented - liked this one very much. Thank you for that. I am among many others who would like to see such a documentation about Domitian - do we have any chance getting this? Would love it.

One thing I like about Emperor Titus is Definitely his unusual choice in Colosseum Gladiator game Priscus Verus Two fought and both won I mean usually only one survives but this was definitely unique

Out of all the documentaries I've seen covering the Flavian emperors this is the one that gives the most careful consideration to the tricky process of weighing the historical evidence. Titus' life and rule is easy to conflate with Vespasian's so it's nice to see a bit of a more nuanced take on it. That being said, in a way, it's not enough. I feel like there is a little more appetite for the minutiae of evaluating historical events and their relationships to source material than may have been anticipated (if the popularity of certain historical podcasts is any indication). I suppose this doc struck a balance of its own, but I wouldn't have minded a little more dissection.

Legends

Por favor lo pueden subtitulado en español gracias

Caligula and Nero the bigest dictators of Rome 😮

The Iron Age came about due to a desire for the masses to take power from the elite. There were invasions of Sea People, but they were also part of the system of governance created by the Elite, an elite all related to one another like one big extended family (chiefly due to all the marriages going on). The Copper Age (the rise of talent and ability that allowed one a place in society as a continuation of the Neolithic Age, but more importantly power began to become a tool of politics). The Bronze Age (established by the chaos of competing civilization in which power became increasingly centralized into the hands of a few people and where family ties determine one's place). You could argue that the copper age collapsed into the Bronze Age but it is more correct that it was conquered in which Kingdoms began to emerge due to said conquest such as the unification of Egypt between Upper and Lower Egypt. The Iron Age (the collapse of the Bronze Age in which power began to filter out of kingdoms in favor of new people of talent, a sort of return to the Copper Age, albeit this came through stages through the rise of new Kingdoms, new forms of government and the fall of Old Kingdoms and Forms of Government). The Medieval Age (the fall of central authority in favor of regional lords and consolidation of culture under a unifying system of religious practices and doctrine). The Modern Age (the reunification of the state, the separation of the state, and the rise of the individual man).

He was good for the Roman’s and not for the enemies, is the same we ask for our presidents.

Dismissal of the numbers who were killed (as related by Josephus) is typical of modern historians, as if the ancients didn't know how to account. Josephus's account of the Wars of rhe Jews has been verified in many cases and he states that the Romans had paid for the disposal of the bodies of the Jews and kept an accurate account for that purpose. In addition, the city was swollen by the numbers who came for celebration of one of the Jewish holidays which made a trip to the Temple a mandatory observance. Josephus, who was present with the Roman army, was very familiar with Jerusalem and would have known himself what numbers could be found in the city during one of the mandatory festivals. The numbers estimated by modern historians is pure crap.

I don't think Augustus was the real heir. I believe the Senate lied because they didn't want Caesars real son to be in charge because his mother was Cleopatra making him a Prince of Egypt and heir to Caesars throne.

@FAMA-18

No, Indeed, Julius Caesar foresaw the rise of Augustus (then known as Gaius Octavius) as his heir. When Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 B.C.E., he had appointed Augustus as the heir to his political and personal fortune in his will, not the son he had with Cleopatra.

The Best Emperor

Great treatment on that of Titus. But there's seems to be one key vital piece of information about Titus,and that being that he like King Cyrus of Medo/Persian empire were both subjects of prophetical information in the Bible,more pointedly in Daniel 9:26 where he is identefied as a prince,because his father Vespesian had left him in charge of finishing the task at Jerusalem,while his father went back to Rome for his official coronation! So in fact,he was an instrument in God's hands to accomplish His divine order of things concerning His covenant people,the Jews! Remember that Jesus had prophecied the utter destruction of the temple, I find it extremely important for there's great amount of commotion in Israel in wanting to build the third temple! So in a sense,Titus was carrying orders,not from Rome,but from the throne! The one in heaven,that is!

@D4Disdain

Titus was no dummy. He had the information about the prophesies and when the Temple was destroyed by the Babylonians. He acomplish, maybe by a stoke of luck or by design, to destroy the Temple, in the same day as the Babylonians did, August 28 (Av 9) 586 BC; Titus, 28 August 70 AD, to strike terror in the heart of the Jews for a fulfillment of a prophesy. Both, Nebuchadnezzar II and Titus, destroyed the Temple not out of malice. They were looking for treasure and the artifact that was a weapon and a "communicator device" to speak with the Gods, the Ark. The Temple was built like a onion of 3 layers with false walls around the inner sanctum, so they proceed the "undoing" of the Temple stone by stone so nothing would be buried in rubble. The workers were watched day and night so nothing could be stolen or hidden. Legend says, Titus found the Ark, took it to Rome and now is in the Papal Vatican. You do your own research about the Vatican Hill and what was in ancient times.

Josephus's claim of a million deaths is actually reasonable considering the time and place. During Passover, Jews traveled to Jerusalem from all through the Diaspora, not just from Judaea. There were more Jews living outside Judaea than within. And Titus let the travelers in but not out.

Dat promma is ert interressante voor de menssen die heft a section literraire . Op school ik heb des maar hier er is veel detaol

Was Titus one or the other? How about both.

In the video you mentioned that Titus allowed those attending Passover to enter in order to add pressure on the food supply. It was common for Jews from around the empire to attend passover. At this time, up to 20% of the larger Roman cities around the empire, were Jews. Because of this, one million is plausible.

How I would interpret it, is that the Hebrews had no vision for order in the earthly realm, and that their genocidal nature meant that even the most enlightened theocracy was genocidal. And so the character of Titus isn't as much of an issue that the victory of Rome was less brutal than the potential victory of the Hebrews, and that victory proved the sacred duty and destiny of the Roman ethic of true order through self-discipline, because if wanting to be ruled by a God is the height of tyranny, then the alternative is that the Roman legionary believed in being Roman. The American Legal system owes more to Rome than to the Jewish tradition, because though the world may fall, may justice be done. Looked at this way, the Jesus project was about allowing the best of the Jewish character was allowed to escape, while leaving the tainted and genocidal Jewish people behind. The John Rawles theory of Justice is, from my personal research, is more centered in the Latin view of precedent through experience as being more important than divine sanction. And so, in my view, being opposed to theocracy is the same thing as being opposed to genocide. In that sense, that's why I'm not a Muslim, because if I was, I'd have to be in support of genocide due to their faith in God and theocratic rule.

For the first part of my life I despised all things Roman, but over the years I have realized while the Roman conquered, the subsequent peace they established and the stability they provided was better than what the people had before and what they would have had. However, I can never wrap my head around the "games" of the coliseum. The noble Romans of the Republic had descended into depravity.
