Ancient Discoveries Season 1 Episode 1 - Ancient Computer? {s01e01} Full Length

[thefranciswatts]

The question I have is that if this machine modeled the universe, can you tell whether it was a heliocentric or geocentric model it was calculating.

[BodomChildBreeder]

ancient aliens would answer many of the questions asked here.. hehe

[Koolvedge]

They Invented Democracy?

[schuylery]

The Antikythera device isn't a computer.

Enough already.

[dombadil]

Its mind-boggling to think of how the human race would have advanced if such technologies were not lost by time or by those whom wished to dis-advance the world. I could have been typing this vary message on a floating computer if it wasn't for them book burning bastards!

[TheSoulDoubt]

@Mystic69ify Very true. But that is the sad thing, collectively we haven't advanced much since the days of discovering fire- that's why the library was burned, that's why u have no floating computer. Nothings changed. Most of our knowledge is stored electronically and much easier to lose. In wars people die, killing isn't easy, takes a lot of hate- u don't try to preserve the legacy of something u hate, u try to destroy it. War is our nature. The last word dictates history and sets the future.

[TheSoulDoubt]

@Mystic69ify People tend to think 'we' are much more advanced than our ancestors, I don't think this is true at all. There is a difference between the advance of knowledge and whatever has it. If I were to make a learning computer today its knowledge in 2000 years would be vastly superior to today, but the computer itself would not have changed or advanced at all in how its made. We ourselves haven't changed in thousands of years, just our knowledge has. We're still the same book burners today.

[TheEennaamvooryoutub]

I love documentaries.. :)

[snuffythegrand1]

in 50 yrs face book will be the book of the dead

[Joelomite]

Where can I buy the soundtrack for this show? It's exquisite...

[Videodrome06]

Just think, 2000 years from now public school students will study the writings of our great minds .. like Homer (Simpson) .. SpongeBob .. and the Family Guy.

[MrJuxtapox]

THEY ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT BONES.. ITS ALL ABOUT EARLY INVENTION,,

[TheForsberg2009]

36:50 yaaaaa right buddy

[Molloch56]

This video is nonsense. It shows no links at all to who created the device. It simply attempts to link the device to one genius. Wow, it was just the creation of this one special person. My Lord, if it was created by one person how many years or decades would that one person have to work to create it? Of course he would never have the time to do all the other things he spent his life doing.

This is just an attempt to "solve" a mystery with nothing but theory.... Nonsense!

[FlexibleFour]

Look at the eastern world first before you say you invented world's first!

[ndgv2]

thanks for posting these. subscribed

[syshock2]

FYI the manuscript at 26:50 is actually a sacred Islamic text (in classical Arabic) which contains accurate narrations of the Prophet Muhammad. The exact date of the manuscript is unknown. but if you pause at 26:51 you can see it says "...it has been reported by Abu Dawud.." on the 9th line. 'Abu Dawud' is the name of a famous historical Muslim scholar who documented the traditions of the Prophet Muhammad, over 1100 years ago. The 7th line says "The Prophet--May Peace Be Upon Him--sent..."

[pouelchnu]

It's a clockwork mechanism, not a smart phone. I am disappoint.

[club4ghz]

BUT WILL IT RUN CRYSIS?

[sw3ettouch]

Watch this with CC on!

[Projectinsighter]

And as God has warned..just like in the days of Noah shall it be in the last days..Mixing seeds of all sorts,man human,food,and nature...Soon judgement is upon us all.

[imsmudgefree]

@Projectinsighter This documentary is exploring the fact that humans are wonderful and inventive, and has got nothing to do with the Bible.

[Projectinsighter]

Leviticus 19:19 ESV“You shall keep my statutes. You shall not let your cattle breed with a different kind. You shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed, nor shall you wear a garment of cloth made of two kinds of material.

[MIFrancx]

@VeNom4G I am from Africa and I love such documentaries. I research alot on my free time on ancient civilizations, just to correct you a skull 700 000 years old does not march some of the skulls discovered in Africa some are as old as 3 500 000 years old. Check your sources again please.

[wafuf14]

Lets see how afrocentrists claim this as theirs

[Simo606]

first episode ive ever seen and im hooked, gonna watch them all :)

[MrRobotoToo]

The Antikythera mechanism was more of a calculator than a computer. A computer is usually understood as a programmable machine. Despite its great sophistication, the Antikythera mechanism was not programmable.

[AvidAngels]

@MrRobotoToo If it can be programmed, most ancient greek hackers could have played spacewar! on it.!

[mickohabesha]

they might find 700,000 year old skull,in Greece but they found 3.2 million years of skull in Ethiopia.which is in Africa.there u have it.

[AmaitRasmanBC]

@mickohabesha Yes of Course....But In Petralona Cave in Chalkidiki found another Skeleton and Skull from 11.000.000 Years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..........­.....Yes i know i surprised too .... but once I looked I realized it was true....The Life start From Aegean Sea Greece there is no doubt about this...if you wnat send me private message and ill give you the informations and proofs ..and a list of Documentarys about this theme.....

[SECTOR187]

Very Intresting I carn't believe through war, and most probably a few natural disaster or 2, has caused humans to lose so much of our history. The sad thing is today we seem to be heading down a very slippery path, which today world is run by greed and corruption. If there is one lesson we should take from the ancients is there ability to share knowledge, today’s world is sitting on that much technology which will never see the light of day until some wanker thinks he can make a buck out of it!!

[GaRnaGe2JZ]

Antikythera Mechanism is Created by Greeks in 100 bc....Greeks gave us so much like....Democraty..Philosophy.­.Astrono­my...The Right from Freedom .. Wisdom....the logical thinking...Virtue...Music.Ar­t­s...Medical..Alphabet...The correct method of sciences

..Mathematics ..Poetry..Theater..Drama..­Com­­­edy...Tragedy...Olympic Games...Ancient  Football (Episkyros) and thousands more...in the Ancient times the Southern Italy called Magna Grecia (Great Greece in English)..Greetings from Italy.

[canadiankewldude]

@GaRnaGe2JZ All the things that those in power wish to take away from us

[sbergman27]

@GaRnaGe2JZ "Greeks gave us so much like..Democraty."

In fact, Ancient Athenians would not consider the "Representative Democracy" common today to be democracy at all, but an oligarchical tyranny. (Note that the ancient Greek meaning of the term "tyranny" varies, somewhat, from our own.) To an ancient Athenian, a Democracy would require that each adult male citizen personally vote on each issue. Even sending a proxy to vote for you one day would be a shamefull neglect of civic duty.

[imperator332]

Ah, the good part of HC. Where they put experts on, who give us descriptions of artifacts from our past.

The sad part is when the antikythera machine winds up on Ancient Aliens, with a bunch of fucktards saying "aliens built this ancient computer!".

[jaymorpheus11]

The peak of our civilization will likely be sitting around thanksgiving time, huddling around the 47 inch flatscreen, watching another edition of to kill a predator, where a cyborg chris hansen shoots predators with laser eyes 8-x.

[SuperAaaaa123456]

God's best creations is man indeed!!

[studioRAF]

@SuperAaaaa123456

And human's worse creation is God, indeed !!

[Petrinaikos]

PROUD TO BE GREEK

[mroshayayi]

love ancient discovery ,...cause ive learn so much

[stevensrd1]

Ill offer a tid bit of truth, as they say take it or leave it right. Time is not as it seems. As the time of now changes far back so does the past as well, to fall in place so to speak, Or vice versa, its like imagining those of the past live in or exist within the back of or deeper realms of our minds, likewise we would be existing in the the realm or thoughts of those in the future, take all this as just anothers random thought,,or leave it entirely if it dont suit your need. :)

[amitp2]

Thank you for uploading!!!

[ISAWORLD2012]

beautiful video....

[SuperKinevil]

virus be the downfall of man-again

[sukanok]

thank you for upload these vdos.

[antikurixana]

hm anybody know the music at the end? the one sung by woman

[zach200cc]

@antikurixana This music is haunting isn't it? that's the reason why I searched out this video on youtube. Did you ever find out who sang this music?

[antikurixana]

@zach200cc

llol no dont know who sings it... it was stuck in my head for a month :d than i forgot it. now i will sing it in my mind for other month :/

[jamafrican657]

Humans need to live by the 'now' instead striving for a deathless existence. Then we will find heaven.

[Bracerjack]

I love documentaries like these....

It's so sad that almost all of the knowledge in the ancient libraries are gone....

Will that happen to us as well ?

[Zeuts85]

@Bracerjack I doubt it. Large portions of the world's current knowledge can be stored on a single computer. So even if there was some sort of apocalypse, somebody somewhere would retain that knowledge on their electronic devices.

[Bracerjack]

@Zeuts85

Now that's a good thing :)

[sockington1]

@Bracerjack unlikely as our records are kept on computers, not papyrus, and therefore will not decay naturally over time

[Bracerjack]

@sockington1

The question then, is whether we would have the "reader" for it.

We already removed floppy from our computers.

Without a tape reader and the specs of the way data is recorded in it, that roll of tape...is just....a roll of tape.

[Keelox100]

@Bracerjack I believe so, there is archeological proof, of rise and fall of civilizations. Civilizations reach the peak, and then for some reason, are destroyed to start from begining again. It's as if we humans are doomed! Not sure what does this, but i have a feeling, we're about to widness, what the previouse civilizations did thousands of years ago.

[Bracerjack]

@Keelox100

The question then....will the future civilization be able to read our blue rays ?

[TheJustice456]

@Bracerjack THIS IS WHY THERE ARE WARS. THIS KNOWLEDGE HAS BEEN HIDDEN FOR 1000,S OF YEARS. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS IN THE VATICAN?

[spaik007]

@Bracerjack everything is oncomputers and computers break easily

[306cas]

@Bracerjack it all ready has!

[Plaatboy]

@Bracerjack Although there are many one of a kind copies of work, with mass printing; instead of one great library we have hundreds of such libraries. We also have better fireproofing measures. most sprinkler systems don't need power to work. many other reasons to think our knowledge would only be lost if some 2012 (the movie) like event happen. Even since Renaissance info survives better. We don't have any missing Shakespeares do we?

[Bracerjack]

@Plaatboy

I hope for our sake that you are right.

I can only hope that with all the digital data we have, we will have "one" surviving reader to read those data.

[museluvr]

Respond to this video... Well, in my opinion converting everything to digital form is not a good idea. I prefer a 'real' book over a Kindle. Technology like that has a dark side most people do not consider.

[mvivirito]

@Bracerjack its all in the vatican

[Muralidharan001]

@Bracerjack Lost mainly due to Abrahamic religions. In my country(11 century) Muslims burnt books of University of Nalanda . People use to say the no. of books are so high it took them a month to burnt it

[Bracerjack]

@Muralidharan001

And they wonder why their culture is so backward.

[REXXBAILEY]

@Muralidharan001 NO.ACTUALLY A BETTER WAY TO DESCRIBE IT WUD B DAT THE NUMBER OF BOOKS & ALL THE RESEARCH AND STUDIES OF THE AGES WAS SO HIGH DAT THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY BURNT CONTINOUSLY FOR MORE THEN A MONTH.THE FIRE GOT ENOUGHFUEL 2 BURN FOR A WHOLE FREAKING MONTH, AS OPPOSED TO IT TAKING THEM A MONTH TO COLLECT THE BOOKS IN PILES & TAKING A MONTH TO DESTROY THEM ALL..IT WASNT LIKE DAT THEY JUS TORCHED THE PLACE AND IT BURNED FOR A WHOLE MONTH.ONE OF OUR BIGGEST LOSS IN OUR HISTORY.

[REXXBAILEY]

@Muralidharan001 ....BURNING BOOKS OF PPL WHO USED TO NOT JUST AVIDLY READ BUT WORSHIP THEM.

[sbergman27]

@Bracerjack Well, depending upon how you look at it, the glass is either half-empty or half-full. People talk of "The Burning of the Library at Alexandria" as *an* event. The appropriate question is "Which burning?. It burned several times. Fortunately, the Monasteries were basically the "Kinkos" of the period, and multiple copies existed of many important works. The Alexandria library had "branch libraries", one of which was also in Alexandria, and never burned. Much was preserved.

[diggyspiff]

@Bracerjack It already has to some extent. They're called classified documents. A lot of those will probably never see the light of day and they hold the truth about things just as the ancient writings in the Library of Alexandria that were burned by 'accident'.

[wingully]

macedonian queen the wife of jesuse christ his real name yusa asuse aliahill saa laam din moved to kashmir as the roman's had taken over the greek island's

[vShaede]

BraveManNewWorld2,

Thank you so much for uploading Ancient Discoveries! I saw a few episodes about four years ago, and I loved them.

This is a fantastic series. I look forward to watching the rest of the episodes you uploaded.

Thanks again! =)

[NailbombSurprise]

Very awesome video series, Man must not forget the achievements of his past. I wish stuff like this would be part of our school education.

[BranmasterG]

@NailbombSurprise I agree

[0zzy07]

Archimedes why would you not surrender? :( too busy solving puzzles

[falutak]

", see? if only the world today would go forward into the future as one, we would accomplish such feats and technologies like that of the ancient world!

[STSchifano]

@falutak Because we all know that the ancient world wasn't filled with conquest and in-fighting...

[quaffer22]

Damn the people who burned the library !!

[cannabisPREVENTION]

this video is wrong jesus christ is the the true creator creator not evolution

[EclipseStrife]

I kept waiting for the part where they say, he had now created the first blackberry

[invisiblemouseyX3]

Well, the ancient people did have a brain you know! It's not really impressive if they built a clock, you know.

[Bassfully]

@invisiblemouseyX3 i concur, they were exactly like us in every biological aspect, plus they had a relatively peaceful and wealthy society.

[snooperinverness]

i accidentally voted thumbs down> sorry

[snooperinverness]

@bassfully

[juicearibe]

Haha you mean Egype right.

[BraveManNewWorld2]

@katharm4 ... Roman empire is from 30 b.c. The Greeks? If you take Atlantis for a fact, then Greek goes around 10,000 b.c. Alexander the Great empire is 336 b.c. (and still today we know middle east civilization that speaks about Alexander) -- Mycenaean 1600 to 1000 b.c. -- Classical Greece 500 b.c. e.t.c.

As we know the Greeks, travel and teach civilization to other countries. We know from Dionysos that he go to today India, and teach them. India = Ιν - Δια = Γιος του Δια = Son of Zeus ΛΕΣ;;;

[katharm4]

@BraveManNewWorld2 ναι μλκια ειπα ηθελα να διαγραψω το comment αλλα δεν μπορουσα, ηθελα να βαλω 2500 πΧ, γιατι πεταει κατι ακυρα μεσα, τεσπα ^^

[RatkoUSA]

@katharm4 There were Romans over 2700 years ago you mouth breathing cretin.

[BraveManNewWorld2]

@RatkoUSA ... My friend yes the Romans exist... but their know civilization started few yeas b.c. ... The reason that he said "didn't exist", is that Greeks make these things before Romans and Romans continues them in their Empire. And don't forget that in today Italy, the more cities were Greeks... Romans and Greeks is like "Brothers" because Romans continues what the ancient Greeks create... and in Roman history you will see many figures peoples in the hard of their empire, were Greeks

[RatkoUSA]

@BraveManNewWorld2 I completely agree with you. Without the Greeks the Romans would have had no one to imitate. There is no question that the Greeks were first, and that most great things in the Roman era originated from them.

My only point was simply that the Roman Kingdom was founded around 700 BCE. It was then that the first people called Romans came to be.

As we know, in the later period of the Roman Empire kings were no longer tolerated.

Nonetheless, those before were "Roman".

[katharm4]

@RatkoUSA Based on your demonstrable incompetence to raise a rational argument, i believe you should visit your local bookstore and obtain any book related to the issue “How to avoid commiting Fallacious Arguments and how to make sense". And by the way Romans did exist in 2700 BC, in caves

[RatkoUSA]

@katharm4 Sorry to hear about your extremely poor reading comprehension skills. It's either that or you are mathematically challenged. My post stated that "There were Romans over 2700 years ago".

2700 BC was over 4700 years ago.

The Roman Kingdom was founded around 700 BC, which would be around 2700 years ago as I stated.

Imbecile.

[CLEnforcer]

@katharm4 Its better made then what your father and mother have tried to made of you.

[NdeeAnna]

I was able to watch all of it. Very interesting to say the least.

[nixter888]

Why Romans?.This is only credited to the Greeks,.for God's sake!.

[BraveManNewWorld2]

@nixter888 ...Ελα φιλε. Για πιο σημειο αναφερεσε;

[nixter888]

@BraveManNewWorld2 Λεει τiς φρασεις...The technology was known to the GREEKS and ROMANS....THE GREEKS and ROMANS were intensely practical people and many of the things which they devise planed and invented presided by two thousand years.... Ανακαλυψαν κατι οι Ρωμαιοι και δεν το ξερω;....Μου θυμιζει αυτος,..ΠΟΥ ΜΙΛΑΕΙ, καποιους αγνωστους που φωτογραφιζονται με καποιους διασημους,..ΣΕ ΚΑΠΟΙΑ ΕΚΔΗΛΩΣΗ,..,..για να πουν ..ΕΙΜΟΥΝ ΚΑΙ ΓΩ ΕΚΕΙ,...ΕΙΜΑΙ ΚΑΙ ΓΩ ΚΑΠΟΙΟΣ!..ΑΧ!....ΓΙΑ ΓΕΛΙΑ ΕΙΝΑΙ!

[BraveManNewWorld2]

@nixter888 Που εισαι ακομα να δεις την 1η σαιζον The Universe, ολους τους θεους τους λενε Ρωμαΐκους... Ελληνες ηταν εκει και βοηθησαν να αναπτυχθει η ρωμαικη αυτοκρατορια. τι να κανουμε, ειτε τους αρεσει, ειτε οχι οι Ελληνες ειναι παντου. Τον τοτε καιρο υπηρχαν οι βαρβαροι και οι Ελληνες, αν δεν ηταν οι Ελληνες εκει, τοτε θα ειχαν κατι σαν τη βαβυλωνα. Και μην ξεχνας πως ψυχαγωγουσαν τον κοσμο.. αυτο δειχνει τι επιπεδο ηταν οι ρωμαιοι και δειχνει επισης οτι λιγοι "κρατουσαν" την αυτοκρατορια

[nixter888]

@BraveManNewWorld2 Αλλα εμεις πρεπει να επεμβαινουμε ομως και να τους βαζουμε στη θεση τους!...Γιατι υπαρχουν πολλοι που  δεν ξερουν την αληθεια και τους πιστευουν!

[BraveManNewWorld2]

@nixter888 ... Παρα πολλοι... δυστηχως... και σε αυτους περιλαμβανεται και το 90% των Ελληνων... προσοχη μην τους πουν φασιστες... ε;; ... και δεν ειναι αποδεκτη απο το πληθος

Κανενας κοιμισμενος δεν ειναι αξιος για τιποτα... και για μενα δεν αξιζει και τιποτα. Το προβλημα φιλε μου, ειναι οτι ολοι ειναι παπαγαλακια.. οτι ακουν το λενε, χωρις ποτε να εχουν μελετησει εστω και ενα βιβλιο αρχαιας Ελληνικης Γραμματειας

[nixter888]

@BraveManNewWorld2 Eχεις απολυτο δικιο!...Εμεις που κατι ξερουμε ειμαστε εδω,..και δεν δισταζουμε να βαζουμε τα πραγματα στη θεση τους!...Να'σαι καλα!

[nixter888]

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY GIVE CREDIT TO ROMANS!....

[arcadian33333]

Things which other civilazation like to think as modern in order to excuse their existance.
