@@eswaribalan164 I think Greeks should build all their Ancient Wonders! They had 5 of the 7 afterall! 💙

Greece is one of the places I’ve never been and would love to see. I bet it was an amazing trip for u!

@@rheverend it was amazing and super affordable, cause you don’t pay to see most of the monuments, museums or temples if you are under 25 and living in the European Union, so you save a lot bcs of that!!

The first cemetery of Athens is great too

Too bad we are no longer on the Draxma. When we were, affordable was an understatement. For maybe 500 to 800 draxma you could get salad, entrée, dessert, water and wine and there were small hotels and mom and pops where you could easily find a room for eight to twelve dollars a night. These exact prices, yes the hotels even at ten bucks a suite which was what I paid, I did enjoy on weekend trips from school taking the Europass which is unlimited rides anytime you wanna hop on and off, after just a quick jot overnight in a train (don’t worry there is a bangin nightclub on the train or you can just have them make your bed and get some sleep in your cabin which is bed, vanity, and private toilet and shower if you’re lucky) to...🥁🥁🥁🥁drumroll please🥁🥁🥁🥁...Transylvania. If you want Europe on a budget with castles and cathedrals and art and architecture and incredible regional food where you can see traditional clothing, safe gypsies, incredible scenery, medieval preserved towns etc. then Transylvania is a great bet. Hungarian, Biertan, Viscri, Brasov... it’s all incredibly beautiful and after Prague lost its famous cheapest place in Europe claim to fame, Transylvania seems to have taken over. It’s no Greece and nothing on earth ever could be lol but it’s great for cheap Europe. Bulgaria and Macedonia are beautiful to see from the train too if you go from Greece depending on what side you are on but yea, the rails from Athens to Skopje, Sofia, Bucharest, Budapest, Krakow, Warsaw, Moldova, are so affordable and the lodgings and food next to nothing it is the last remnants of the old days when people backpacked through Europe on a couple American dollars a day and saw and did it all, none of which exists anymore beyond this little patch of countries. But it’s something to enjoy at such a low price, cheaper than a trip in the states even and with Ryanair and stuff going around Europe and airlines where you can get from the US to one of the cities I mentioned for maybe 250 bucks and cheap stay upon arrival you gotta do it especially for those who never got a chance to see Europe and find it too pricey or too overwhelming an investment.

LOL really? The guy saying that Pyramid is tomb for the Pharoah??? Do enlighhten me, how many mummies were found inside a Pyramid. NONE. They only found Granite Sarcophagus. Sarcophagus are like big stone box with a stone lid, and hence they ASSUME that this Sarcophagus is for a mummy. Sorry, you need real knowledge and not half baked knowledge like this channel

​@@sachinmesta4238 The only ‘inscription’ found inside the Great Pyramid was a red paint mark supposedly spelling out 'Khufu.' Colonel Howard Vyse, a British soldier, and Egyptologist supposedly discovered the mark while exploring the air shafts located just above the King’s Chamber. He needed a major find as his time & funding for exploration was running out, so he fabricated one. Egyptologist Zecharia Sitchin, discovered that the writing of Khufu’s name “is a fraud and was painted in May of 1837”. Sitchin states that Khufu was misspelled as 'Rhufu and his alleged sarcophagus was half his size & carved directly into the stone making up the Pyramid, which would not have been the case for an actual sarcophagus. The only other findings attributing the Pyramid to Khufu was the fact that some mortar from the pyramid was carbon dated to Khufu's approximate time. However, it is well known that Khufu made repairs on the Sphinx & also made repairs on the pyramid as well, which would account for the mortar.

Those are less well known but I’ve been to Anuradhapura which was quite amazing especially the 2500 year old stupas a few of which are nearly as large as the pyramids of Giza.

@@blablablablablabla4366 I took issue with the pyramids segment as well. You should have also mentioned in your video that the way you said the pyramids were built and hauled is still theoretical. Nobody knows how the pyramids were built, let alone quarried hundreds of miles away. Also no mention how they even cut each block perfectly straight. Other than that, the video is well made and lets the viewer see how things could have looked back then.

Too true. The likes of hill of Tara and rock of Cashel are looked after a little better but many less famous sites are largely ignored.

Why not look for these ancient grounds and conserve or rebuild them as a hobby? Get the local schools in on it as part of Irish history classes?

@@justjoking5841 Honestly I'm not an archaeologist but I'd assume that there'd be risk involved excavating them in case of genuine historical artefacts. I'd love to see them restored but as a country, we're pretty lackadaisical about our ancient history as opposed to our modern history. No idea why but that's just the way it seems to be.

Sadly, it is quit impossible to restore the pyramid of Giza without damaging it even further.

Me also. My sister and her than husband stopped by there while on a cruise. She went shopping.

Someone should make a recreation like with the Parthenon.

I'm collecting money for it.

I freaking love that movie! I also always pictures Talos :D

I still see it depicted incorrectly constantly. We don't even have the technology today to construct such a statue. You would have to drill down 100 feet to create the support needed for such a structure. A free standing statue such as this would be blown over by the wind within a year.

It won the Academy Award for best 'special effects' in 1963! Wow! Remember the living skeletons?

@@rongendron8705 That was the best but still Talos is my favorite. I saw the movie in a theater in one of the front row seats and when Talos turned his head and stared right at me (as the camera was right behind Hercules) I still remember the shock I felt. He looked as tall as the Empire State building.

@@rongendron8705 those skeletons scared the pants off me!! I remember them vividly to this day coming out of the ground where the teeth were scattered. I would love to see that movie again with my grandkids and see their reaction 😆

So I'd respectfully recommend that no one should accuse someone without knowing their intent.

People aren't allowed to now?

I am from Mexico and sadly most archeological sites are not able to climb now. I would recommend you to go to a smaller or less known sites because those can climb. Look for one called Calakmul that is in the middle of the jungle, its like 2x the size of chichen it's and the biggest pyramid is about 10 times taller and its aboe to climb!

me too, I stayed in Merida at the time

@@jannythewonderwomen2215 no

There are way better sites in Mexico than Chichén Itzá. I just hate that they choose that one, a little googling would have been helpful. I would have chosen Xochicalco, Malinalco, Mitla or Teotihuacán. Just to name a few. Maya sites are way overrated.

I spent a few days there back in 1986, pretty impressive Roman buildings, The SW tower window of the Imperials Baths being used as a gate to the medieval city was one impressive piece of information. Of course the Porta Nigra and the rest. Always highly recommend a visit to Trier to anyone visiting the area.

Bumbled past Trier a few times in my travels but never really had time to take a proper look-see. Maybe next time :-)

@@sirrathersplendid4825 It was an Imperial City, at one time it was the centre of control for the whole Northern Roman Empire and the 'remains' are very impressive, the Hippodrome is far more impressive than the one at Rome (Been there too).

Thank you for pointing out what should be common knowledge! At least one person on this channel knows their History!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn’t it also common knowledge that the Pyramid of Giza was not built as a tomb for Kufu? I could be wrong but I thought they have came to a conclusion that there is no signs at all of it ever being made or used as a tomb an there is a couple different theories on what it was built for. So the real reason it was built is still unknown. I know I’ve heard that in videos just can’t remember if it has been acknowledged by science yet.

Same as you 😂

The coastal road was the only feasible landward approach into the interior for a large army. The Persians needed access to the sea for resupply as they progressed. The Westward terrain is quite mountainous with rough trails and narrow, easily defended valleys.The Persian army likely numbered 50-60 thousand and simply could not negotiate another route and retain offensive cohesion. Leaving the Aegean would have run the risk of starving as the Greeks could have easily cut off supplies with a small ground force and their strong navy. Also don’t forget Greeks led Persians there. The Persians had already a failed naval expedition prior to Xerxes, that got him worried so much that he avoided the penninsula of Athos by digging a canal. And then being unable to avoid the penninsula of Pelion, the Persian fleet suffered massive losses to the point that even after the storm ended, Xerxes constructed the fist lighthouse in the world at the cape Sepias. Even with a modern lighthouse, I’ve seen big modern shipwrecks there., it’s a no joke region. So, the Persian fleet managed to pass cape Sepia, dock at the bay of Aphetae and then it had to options in order to follow the army for supplies and circumvent Leonidas at Thermopylae. Whoever travelled the terrain can attest to the serious difficulty facing a significant ground force as the Italians discovered to their dismay in 1940 as well. Ancient Greeks were wonderful. Wonderful truly wonderful in strategic placements and war tactics, and modern warfare showcases the same- even with limited resources of any sort. I believe it has to do with the fact their wars were 99% defensive. This gives you motivation to f up anyone who comes to your home, and be ready to die over it. City states were one thing, but they all United during external threats as Hellenes. Fun fact, to this very day socially speaking the cities of Greece do have a funny rivalry. Old habits simply don’t die.

hmmm interesting since there's a rock quarry not far away and the likely place the stones from the pyramids were CUT. i guess you just ignore that fact huh? lmao

Not to mention the fact that the ramp wasn't a straight ramp, as it would've needed more materials to be built than the pyrmaid itself. Instead, and this has been confirmed, the ramp used was a spiral ramp constructed on the pyramid itself. That's why one of the pyramids has a little notch in one of it's vertices, a section of the materials that were used to fill the ramp collapsed.

Actually, barsoum has proven that only the exterior and top parts of the pyramids were built by this mould in place idea . Many parts of the pyramids were built by hauling limestone quarries blocks to the site. Which makes sense because the most visible parts needed to look perfect and using moulded in place blocks would make life easier than hauling big stones to the top.

@@brianstrutter1501 What fact? Rock quarry proximity does not equate to cutting stones.
