​@@TRACKSTravelDocsThank you for the great video about the Achaemenid Persians. but we Also have ancient civilizations from before 5400B.C in Pars provinces of iRAN, like Aryan civilization of Tall-i-bakun and Tall-i jaleyan!! which Darius the great 2450 years ago in "dNA inscription" mentioned his Pars Aryan ethnicity AND "Aryan lineage"! who were the Aryan people of Tall-i-bakun and Tall-jalyan in Pars provinces of iRAN which Achaemenid and Sasanian empire's came from. And continued to use the same cultural and traditional symbols from both Aryan civilizations from before 5400B.C which is still used by iranian people today✌🏻🌼

Can we honestly expect caucasian "scientists" to render a fair and just interpretation of a non-white civilization? I think not! Knowledge of the world is already in big enough shambles, and will be engulfed in an even bigger one as long as caucasian people continue to "discover" and present THEIR insights to the rest of the non-white world.

I enjoyed this documentary. I am from the United States, but I self-educated myself in a love of ancient history, which included an interest in the Persians. I recently saw a travelog on UKposts that showed a bit of Iran. In truth, it is a beautiful country. It is strange how politics and religion creates enemies. I guess all civilizations have their high points and their falls.. (maybe multiple times). I suppose that my country will do the same. What endures really is the beauty of the people, the land, the cultural highlights that they give to the World. It seems strange to me that Iran is such an enemy here currently or China or Russia or Cuba. Oh well, time will pass. Our relationships and values will change. I don't know that I ever expect total World peace-understanding;; but I think some underappreciated Cultures will be recognized over time for their nobility, creativity, and contribution to Humanity. I think we all count, but we have to learn to live together.

À regular visitor to Iran between 1998 and 2002, my last visit in February 2002 will remain forever carved in my memory. That morning I had the privilege, on my 3rd visit to Persepolis, to be totally alone on the entire site. I walked through the ruins of ancient vestibules and corridors, kitchen and library and paid homage to the cliff carved tombs of the great Persian kings, including that of Cyrus the Great, unifier of the Pars tribes, in Pasargades. Only a solitary visit to the towers of silence of Yazd at sunset in 1998 possibly managed to match the emotions I felt at Persepolis. So many fond memories that I’ll have to revive with another trip together with my wife...

Indeed. As you may have noticed, very little if any conservation and excavation work is being done to restore the city to anything resembling its former glory. This is truly sad, and denies us the ability to view the city as it was meant to be seen, and denies us the history of the Persian people as well. Any history enthusiast is worse off for it also.

Fascinating work! It's amazing how clay and buildings can tell us much about a huge empire! but it's devastating how all of this ended. I wonder what would happen to our own civilizations in the next thousand years or so.

Only the remains of marble, granite, carved stone a few bridges and quality metal machinery products would have survived 1,000 years. (and the pyramids) Any concrete or steel buildings and tar roads remaining would be decayed, overgrown. Imagine what nature would do in time. 🤔 Very intriguing 😊

Many saying that Persia is not forgotten, keep in mind that this is the Achaemenid Empire, not the Parthians, Sassanids or especially after. At this time, they were practically masters over the known world, but we have very little records of this specific time period of their history. Not about East vs West, but whether we literally have records of it or not.

In essence the first Magna Carta And bill of rights . As a Persian I am proud of my historical culture and heritage and especially indebted to all my Persian brothers and sisters who paid the ultimate sacrifice in the path of liberty and the preservation of our proud historical culture .

These are the only known to present world. Indus, Indo or which was Hindu or Hindia later became India was all the way from Indonesia to Eastern Europe. But the only left today is India. Indonesia means Indus Islands, the center as located on equator line and it should be almost as wide as Russia not the one on present world map made by Mercator Europe since year 1569 they draw too small so they could colonise. Our Ancestors were the roots of world oldest ancient civilization think of before Toba supervolcano eruption of Sumatra Indonesia 74000 years, our Ancestors knew about eruption and they were more advanced than us today and flew towards today Europe, Middle East and America to survive from the mega eruption known in human history. Yet, Indonesia is exactly on center of Equator line of earth, best weather and richest nature worldwide. The present Indonesia is the remaining of past Atlantis. Indonesia has also many volcanoes than any other country in the world. I used to live around the world on my own since child alone, born complete multiracial and multilingual, I made great decision to return to Indonesia after 8 years Europe (The Netherlands, France, etc) and before that Middle East, Asia, etc. Yes, I am fluent in Dutch, Arabic, etc. Indonesia has been contributing so much to the world but forgotten as western and middle eastern domination. Good news is Islam will be wiped out of Indonesia as it doesn't suit our local heritage and it is one of main cause of environmental damages including western influence. #Indonesia #India #Cambodia #Vietnam #Thailand #Malaysia #Indus #indusvalley #indusvalleycivilization #ancientcivilization
