Sometimes the things you didn't know are things that most other people know just by being alive
Yemen is at the bottom of the Arabian peninsula.
I love Ilsas scripts. And as an ex archaeologist I really appreciated the emphasis on professionalism/ always seeking to improve vs looting and glory hunting. Thank you.
This is a quality episode for me because: While the 'myth' aspect is always made up, there is still loads of interesting stuff you can talk about. In my opinion, this is more interesting when it's just 'It's not ghosts, people are stupid and or liars'
Too maaanyy taaangeents… didn't watch it all.
12:58
I really doubt that, given the decades long tragedy that's been going on there
700 duty bumps and 300 side actions? I've never had any problem before, so I don't see what the issue is. I'd still get bored.
23:25 I bet Simon thought Spain was in South America 😄
They are called lifts not elevators. I'm sure you know that Simon
Simon is a culture npc. He has government simp energy
1:13 Is he talking about Mission Impossible.
But misremembering that the elevator actually goes up.
48:45 – Brass is copper and zinc, bronze is copper and tin.
How can you not know where Yemen is? Also my guess is Nicaragua
In the middle of this really enjoying this comparing the myth vs the actual history. Just 1 thing I thought Champollion translated the Rosetta Stone not discovered it. It was discovered by Napoleon's troops in Egypt (hence the French involvement). The British then invaded as they were fighting the French at the time (this is how it ended up in the British Museum).
I don't know if there's enough information out there, but I remember an old Ancient Aliens episode (it's my one and only guilty pleasure; don't judge me) that discussed the whole Arc of the Covenant and Ethiopia quite a bit. It might be worth checking out. It sounds right up Simon and Ilze's alleys.
"that kid" SIMON HE IS OLDER THAN US
I second your opinion of Christopher Columbus 😂😂😂 yet I have to give all explorers from back in that day major credit for merely surviving the journey.
You do a lot. Retaining knowledge for some is easier with rereading handwritten notes. Supposedly it is how we are wired. I think such persuits would occupy more time than I have to devote. I imagine you have less.
4:10 – Chapter 1 – The story of king solomon's mines
7:20 – Chapter 2 – The treasures of king solomon
13:50 – Chapter 3 – Was king solomon real ?
21:30 – Chapter 4 – Where did solomon wealth comes from ?
– Chapter 5 –
– Chapter 6 –
Simon you brought up shiba in your northern Africa kingdom videos. Like kush, text, and other dead civilization s.
Oh, that was a complicated one 🙂
Simon, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.
2:45 =Me and my course psychology when depression strikes…
14:37 =I demand the Sphinx's Hall of Records be opened!!! There should be something there, God dang it!!!
fyi an american ton is 2000 lbs and an american billion is 1000 million, hence everything is actually smaller in Texas
YOU TOLD YOUR FAVOURITE JOKE REALLY BADLY
Ayyyyyy shout out to Mrs Pat at 2:28
In my search for knowledge, I found myself passed from crook to swindler, each as eager as the last to earn his pound of flesh from my unwavering desire to grasp beyond the reach of mere men.
In time, I was led to a scholar of unknown seasons. His command of the forces that govern this realm was clear, so I acquiesced. I wanted to see how deep the rabbit hole goes.
To a dimly glowing tablet I was directed– I need only scribe the correct obscure commands to usher forth a images and sounds of arcane knowledge beyond mortal realms.
