Such a rugged, beautiful landscape. This part of the world is so fascinating.

Great content, it really brings it to life this way.

Odyssey - Ancient History Documentaries, I really liked this video! I subscribed too!

Absolutely enthralling. Thank you so much for this! Nice one Mr. Adams & team. 🌟👍

Absolutely love David Adams films and series!

Odyssey - Ancient History Documentaries, This is awesome! I subscribed because I want to see more!

Beautiful! Love this series! ❤

What an intriguing exploration!

Excellent documentary

Eridu in Sumaria is considered to be the first city. There is evidence of many tells in Trukey too which are about 10000 BC, so far unexcavated.

Yes. Don't you just love this stuff? Supposedly there is a lake in Syria, a reservoir, that has dammed over and flooded many similar sites. Now they lay buried in mud at the bottom of the waters

Wow what a movie, and a looking back in the Historie....Thank you.

Alessandro Ariba founded a school in China and remained there for three years, bringing all kinds of seeds for the economy in all kinds of continuous situations, the Route to Syria, Egypt, Palestine, Damascus and Mesopot.😊

David Adams is such a badass.

I am so happy that this series is being made available. I am devouring it. I watch and rewatch and go back to the beginning and watch it again up to date. Thank you David Adams and Odyssey. Edit: I just finished watching this episode. It ended with a sense of finality. Pray thee there is more to come please,..else I will go back and dovetail this with Michael Wood's epic series, " In the Footsteps of Alexander the Great" (BBC circa 1998?) This is soooo fun. Thanks again

@@DocPhantoms thank you for the info. I just rewatched it again. Michael Wood goes farther on but he is less concise and less of an actual endeavorer...I had little idea of what I was getting into back in 1998. I am so happy to have found this newer production by David Adams. Gunna now search out Michael Woods journey down into India. Thanks again

Fascinating and intriguing...

I subscribe to a few historical sites as well as nature and this site is definitely up there with the best. Thanks guys.

Great information and story. Thanks.

Just great! thanks

EXCELLENT!!!!

Wasn't this area quite a bit warmer in Alexander's day?

Most Excellent ¿ DNA investigation please ¿

Unknown to many millions of people, Alexander is written into many so called religious texts. If one studies Alexander and his campaigns, you will find the answers. He was considered Lord of Asia Minor. 😊

0:17 "2,300 years ago, Alexander the Great, became the first European to rule the East..." I thought he was usually referred to as a Macedonian, or maybe a "Mediterranean". But a European? Not sure I've heard many documentaries calling him that. I mean isn't "Europe" a more contemporary name for a then-very-different geopolitical reality 2,300 years ago? Today we can easily say that there was such a thing as "Ancient Europe", but back then how would Alexander the Great been referred to, simply a Greek? What was the general name used at the time (if any) to designate the existing nations together in what today we call Europe? I'm genuinely curious about this.

Oxus civilization should be on Sid Meyer's next Civilization game. Indo-Europeans?

What astounds me is that the teepee of North American communities took so long to take hold. A teepee can withstand 100mph winds. This architecture is so under sung. Why is there no evidence of teepees in Asia? Yurts are the best example in Asia. Teepees are the best in North America Edit: teepees are called a lodge where many can be comfy 12 to 16 to twenty per lodge if disasters strike

Afghanistan is such a beautiful place. God I wish it was safer to travel to, to visit.

😅❤I'll tell you about Port where the greatest treasure of the red beard pirate is found, an evil Indian pirate who dominated the sea 🙏

Why not use DNA and settle the matter?

We don’t have Alexander’s dna..

They have. No they don’t have any recent Greek dna admixture. They just have slightly higher Steppe DNA from the Andronovo migration 4,000 yrs ago. Their appearance would be far more common in Central Asia had it not been for the Turkish migrations of the Middle Ages.

Giuseppe Catapano: "Atlantida which disappeared 12,000 years ago, was the land of the Pelasgians (ancestors of Albanians), who escaped the flood of Atlantis and began new civilizations on all continents, especially in Europe, Africa and small Asia". THOTH spoke Albanian! Thot means "to say" in Albanian Language. Pelasgian means "the Caveman" (Shpellazg). Zeus was a Pelasgian, not a Helen! After Illyad, the Language of Gods was Gheg.(Herodotus) A study recently published in Science Magazine 2023 proves the antiquity of the Albanian language, which is much earlier than the Greek and Armenian languages > 8000 years old. The oldest settlements of Europe > 8000 years old were found in Ohrid Lake Albania. Sanskrit, old Greek, and Latin languages are already dead. The Albanian Language "GHEG Dialect" is still alive! It is the Indo-European language, a proto Indo-European language, indeed. It deciphers the symbols and other languages.

The oldest cities were in west Asia not central Asia.

To go right to the point, Yes Mesopotamia is considered the origin of civilization. Here we get under a nugget of similar value. The Indus River had long fascinated me as to how and where civilizations began. Mr Adam's is here portraying the exact example of an explorer. I cannot praise him highly enough. Indeed Mesopotamia gets all of the attention. I think it is fun to explore conventional wisdom however. In my studies the Indus River is largely past over. I thank this series for going off the norm

I created all of them

How would we know? We haven't found the first cities yet. They're under water.

Wrong, no evidence for that. Plenty of cities on rivers. Sea levels move up slowly so people can move and rebuild cities up river. Look up Yunger Dryas and the warm period before it. Yunger Dryas ice age only last about 1000 to 2000 years.

What you are calling a city is not in fact a city. We have found the first city, it was Catalhouyuk. The oldest continuously inhabited city was Jericho. Do your research, you think you sound smart but you don't. The underwater places like Doggerland did not support cities or humans that grouped into permanent dwellings. You're talking about periods of time that are separated by tens of thousands of years if not hundreds. Also the sites that have been found due to underwater archeology weren't cities they were hunter gatherers in temporary settlements. You can find info on this here on KZread just like I did. Stop watching alternative history channels that make up nonsense about an ancient super civilization that nobody can find any evidence for.
