History of Ancient Civilization, part 2 of a series

[HustleWorldEnt1]

wow this guy totally took African culture out of the equation!! I agreed wit him when started the time line & evolution of man but how can u skip African history, thats where the first man derived from!! once again black people are not given credit!! smdh after the old world apes start to evolve into modern man which came out of Africa which where BLACK!!!

[jjhicks33]

its ridiculous that people still think the pyramids are on 4000 years old pshht 800 years to build those pyramids must of been some hard working slaves

[sungl0]

no more solid evidence for Darwin's theory being fool proof , more superior than others. it shouldn't be used as the Truth. wrong premises to start. 

[falstocat]

@sungl0 no reason complete sentences good, more better than fragments. words can't express well anyhow. you think bad with your words.

[mosu2986]

There is no year 0. Year 1 B.C. followed by 1 A.D.

[18797uat797]

these two videos are fantastic! thanks for doing them.

Did you ever do the next one, the Mesopotamian cuneiform one? I can't find it.

[wanshei]

its highly unlikely that any lifeform would have lived its species cycle for 200 million years. Imagine a species living, reproducing and maturing over and over UNCHANGED for 200 million years? Not likely.

[SalvadoraAgustus]

serious ..he draw a dick on that table 5:14

[doncalvito]

He is repeating what he learned in the school of lies, there is a lot of evidence to dispute all of what he's saying ,evolution,christ etc No mention of Sumeria and the fact that we do not come from apes. Do your homework .stop lying

[impalapez]

check out Max Igan's Earth's Forbidden Secrets

[nearfall76]

There is a God, Jesus Christ was his son. He died for our sins. It is not mythology, it is reality.

[jamesfye9]

reality is relitive to the person experinceing it..in my reality im writing to myself!

[meatcannon]

Nothing ------> India ------> Today

Good Luck

Nice Video MrCropper

[flapjack9999]

Evolution is not a fact. It's an unproven hypothesis, hence, the "missing link." People can't find it, because it doesn't exist. There's a difference between apes and early hominids. One didn't come from the other.

[gamesbok]

@flapjack9999 Missing link? • You mean the Eosimias sinensis, the Aegyptopithecus zeuxis, Proconsul africanus, Afropithecus turkanensis, Turkanapithecus kalakolensis, Sivapithecus indicus, hecus bambolii, Lufengpithecus lufengensis, Sahelanthropus tchadensis, Orrorin tugenensis, Ardipithecus ramidus, Australopithecus afarensis, Kenyanthropus platyops, Australopithecus afarensis, Australopithecus bahrelghazali, lopithecus africanus, Paranthropus aethiopicus, Homo Erectus and Homo Habilis?

[KevinReconAlpha]

@flapjack9999 You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Evolution is as much fact as gravity, supported by the theory of natural selection, and when it comes to people educated in the life sciences only the most idiotic zealot fringe nutjobs even attempt (and fail miserably) to rebuke it. The evidence supporting it is literally overwhelming to the point that trying to deny it is an admission of scientific illiteracy at best and utter madness at worst.

[robotaholic]

Humans and monkeys don't share a common ancester- humans and apes do - in fact humans are in the family of "great apes" -evolution is a fact and also a theory just like gravity

[jamesfye9]

the only fact in life is that life has no facts!! only what people percive to be real and factuial

[nicolasborrero]

great summary of huma civilization. Its amazing to see how 10 or 100 years are irrelevant to our total history...

[itsaconspioracy]

Your history is a summary of orthodox western viewpoint full of presuppositions and assumptions that have been taught in educational institutions for the past 100 years. These views are being challenged by more and more scholars who realize we have been victims of propaganda that suites the ruling elite. We can hardly say with any conviction anything about History beyond about 1000 years ago. After that it becomes more and more murky.

[amazingjames311]

please this isn't Felamenko's book on "fake" history(which is actually fake)

if you want a mathematician to tell you what happened over 1000yr's ago then be my guest.

and in actuality most scholars are more and more reaffirmed in the modern concepts of history, due to vast physical evidence.

[gimmedat22]

The history is a deep mine shaft,like the ones they find all over this country and find skeletel remains and never talk about, if they had mentioned these discoveries it would of poked big holes in Darwins theory of evolution.Check out "Hidden History Of The Human Race" an interview with Michael Cremo.

[amazingjames311]

their is no "hole in darwins theory" be cause if there was it would have disproved the theory and we would all know.

so go on and think that adam and eve used to ride triceratops and played with raptors.

[gimmedat22]

Assumptions only makes yourself seem like an ass. Sorry unamazing, but me I don't believe in religion . I am an atheist. I know the world is way older than 6000 years. I know man didn't walk with dinosaurs. etc....

[gimmedat22]

Being called an atheist only puts a label on something,the religous fanatics call us atheist

[gimmedat22]

pardon me, continued.... There isn't a name for people who don't believe in the Easter bunny or santa claus. So why should there be a label for someone who knows that religion is bullshit?

[amazingjames311]

excuse me? go attack a theist. it was sarcasm

as i find it funny and terribly frightening that their even is a "creationist museum" were they have a fake eve feeding a fake squirel with a fake raptor just looking over her shoulder,like its her fuckin pet.

so please, please, use your critical reading skills.

[Pilaf1984]

Starfiremale, I'm not sure if you're aware, but the theories of evolution as they pertain to the human species don't teach that humanity evolved from modern monkeys or apes. Those are cousin species which are just as new as we are. The theory maintains all modern primates evolved from ancient primates.

[Ophiuchus24]

Apes - not Monkeys - there is a difference.

[starfiremale]

By your logic, there should be no more monkeys or apes as they would all have evolved in to humans. What a load of bollocks.

[banheden]

Omg boring boring boring, and inaccurate aswell... Yes the greeks got their civilization from Egypt, and Egypt from Sumer. But if you think civilization started 10k years ago with the agriculture in mesopotamia, then why is there ruins in south america which dates 12k years ago, and ruins under the ocean in china, dating back 13,5k years ago, go figure about that please.

[Gqgangsterz10]

"Wrong wrong wrong. What more can I say?"

------------------------------­--

Agriculture , Writing (not caveman art lol the first complete writing system with an alphabet with more characters then our present day english version. The first people to mass produce books / or print. Like it go's on and on. I'm not saying either civilization is more important, rather that you sound ignorant when you make such claims.

[MrCropper]

The Greeks are by far and away the single most important civilization in human history. Period.

[2007maxamillion]

Greeks were awesome for sure. But they inherited their knowledge from others such as Egypt. Egypt was not an original source for most of the knowledge either.

We do not yet know just how far our history goes back. we will soon find that it is farther back than we ever thought.

The reason you think Greece was so great was because the Egyptian masters taught them what they learned from their teachers. Everyone works for someone, remember that.

[LowellMorgan]

Egyptians, fantastic and intelligent as they were, did not invent theatre, philosophy, science, or democracy. People are in fact capable of original ideas and some of those people were Greek.

[amazingjames311]

i doubt that "great" civilazations like egypt existed prior to the known era's.

we know that Nubia existed but obviously it didn't have a culture beyond that of a large tribal structure. The only artifacts we would consider evidence of "civilization" are after Egypt established itself and began influencing them.

[jamesfye9]

do you claim that we have looked everywhere?what about all the things we thought were fact in the past and now they are benine mythos even funny at times how sure people are without ever seeing proof

[superjtrdr]

jamesfye9,

without proof?? Are you kidding me? Their is an overwhelming amount of evidence that supports Darwin's theory. If he had doubts it's only because he didn't have modern science to back his theory. Sure what we know as facts may change a little over time but the basic theory of evolution will stand the test of time.

We did not descend from the 8 survivors of some ark hoax. It simply isn't possible.

[spcnscan]

I have to agree with you, Gggangsterz: I think all of these very important Civilizations are more or less equally important. The Greeks and Romans may seem more important because of their more direct connection to our temporally Modern culture than say Ancient Sumerian or Ancient Egyptian cultures, but where would the Greeks and Romans have been without the knowledge of ALL of those before them, specifically Egypt? We are part of a breathtakingly vast and delicately (perhaps even imperceptibly)

[spcnscan]

interwoven tapestry of being, and the changing (evolving, if you'll call it that) of being over time is too vast and constant to put labels on moments such as "Most Important"...for it might just be that it only seems that way to our Modern memory and perspective. You mentioned "Cave Man Art" in your comment. That's actually a good example of what I'm trying to get at with this comment of my own.

[spcnscan]

Cave Paintings might not seem like they are as important of developments in the canon of History as something obvious like the gradual domestication of animals (perhaps the beginning of our flirtations with slavery), but they hold an incredible density of information about the origins of Modern Human thought and development.

[spcnscan]

A careful study of History is incredibly important work, and Cropper is right when he says that studying what happened before us is vital to success and "Progress" in the future, but...looking at it objectively can be hard. I think there are many things which are simply buried in the ever shifting grains of time, and keeping an open mind, not backing ourselves into binding, constricting thought structures (while, of course, still remaining skeptical and seeking truth for oneself)

[amazingjames311]

slavery started in africa, it was a means of handeling the captured enemy, since most african tribes don't kill the captured enemy.

you can see it in all of the ancient art, from the close far east to the more local area's.

its actually still a problem today, tho most of the slaves coming out of africa today are little girls/young women for sex trade slavery.

the african slave trade turns to the arabic slave trade which is were the europeans learned it from.

[flapjack9999]

RE: slavery started in Africa.

There's really no proof that Slavery started in Africa. There's also no proof that humans descended from apes/the monkey. It's just an unproven theory.

[amazingjames311]

not "slavery" in general

but the black african slave trade was started by black africans.

and their is nothing but proof that we are members of the ape family

[flapjack9999]

It's an unproven hypothesis. Darwin himself even stated that there were mistakes in his theories, and towards the end of his life, admitted the possibility of God creating the world. It's not Darwin that is to blame, but the people that have chosen to cherry-pick his theories as absolute proof, that are to blame.

[jamesfye9]

?? ther is nothing but proof??

[Gqgangsterz10]

Greeks and romans are no more important than the sumerians or egyptians. Let's remember who established the oldest know writing system for heaven's sake.

[cropperb]

"Greeks and romans are no more important than the sumerians or egyptians"

Wrong wrong wrong. What more can I say?

[Inaissance]

He's just mORe Ivolved. Now keep it down over there, I think I see where MrC's going with this very motivational Introduction...

Let's see: Man's Motive Power is his Moral Code and he is endowed with a Volitional Consciousness for his motivation so, unlike Nature, he has a volitionally induced destiny (Ivolition) resulting in an Induced evolution = Ivolution

Ol'Ivy of the cloven hoof may be of somewhat tired teats but she's still the queen of consistent cream. While I got you here I'll show you PrototypeIV. Its hummin' like..."a thinkin' hor"

Wtf... are you some kind of troll?

haha, so old.

750,000 years ago first evidence of fire use - (just in case anyone's wondering) - so @ 7 milion tool use; then @ 750,000 fire use -

sorry Mr.C just tappin' the keyboard while listening. Its all excellent and appreciated so far.
