We now know that the gold armour was actually from the scithians, a race of immense size and power that ruled there and parts of what is Russia and China. They were the forefathers of Irish and Scott's along with places later in Spain.
People rise and fall, Empires rise and fall, Time changes everything, From great fortress of kharakhoto to deserted sand, city flourished once under the lake. Nothing is permanent. people are just a mare part of this great nature of earth, time or whatever. this is one of the major thing i learned while watching the entire episodes. and While watching this i felt like travelling with this team !! and Specially amazed by how Buddhism flourished in China and west ward to the ruins of mervs. Thank you NHK/CCTV and everyone involved !!
whole silk road was full of the Buddhist sites every place, every river, every ruins, every ancient sites and every people. Pride of Nepal. In other word Nepal connected eastern and mid eastern people along legendary silk road. what a visit to past !!
Pakistan's destruction is its own making which it takes pride in. It's foolish leaders and establishment has taken Pakistan down and to a point of non return. The ones who moved to India made the best choice of their lives and their who went to Pakistan have made the worst decision.
yes! so glad to find this video so many years later, I always remembered that massive wave with the title at the beginning. Mid 2000's is when I started really getting into Detroit electro and this video left a big impression on me.
This series of documentaries is absolutely haunting. Time and time again I return to it. Such well made documentaries, such beautiful images and music and so much information. I hope these documentaries are saved also on hardware somewhere, not just online in the internet. It would be a shame if they would be lost.
I heard that they used to have the Camel Motel along the Silk Road, rarely (if ever) flashing a "No Vacancy" sign but always willing to provide the obligatory continental breakfast.
There were not 300,000 Eastern Romans on the field at Manzikert. I would post a link, but the references online are numerous. Alone, the logistical impossibility of this number stands out. That is probably the total number of soldiers of all kinds in the territory nominally under their control. Which is not to say that the Seljuks did not deserve to win, or that this was not a pivotal battle. But whenever you see numbers like 300k vs 15k, this is nearly always the work of some overzealous patriot, of whatever place or time. This is a great series, but if you are interested in any of the topics brought up, be sure to look up a few sources before quoting facts to friends.
The new buildings from 11:40 made me wonder whether they have survived the earthquakes and winter storms to which their old stone houses have been subjected for many centuries.
The scene at 24:10 really helps us understand how travel has been along here for centuries, with the locals doing a lot of work to keep their lifestyle going
I have not watched the entire series, yet, and there is one thing that I am curious about: I have read that the reason NHK produced this series is because they wanted to establish the connection between Japan and the Silk Road, yet I have not seen an episode that focuses on that, or even mentions a connection. Is there an episode that mentions such a connection?
Yes, interesting comment. Well maybe there's more of that in Silk Road I, because that section is more east. This season starts already in the west of China.
Thus far, I've watched all the episodes up to here, and they are keen to note any resemblances between what they are seeing in their travels, and Japanese culture. Note how often they seek out Buddhist sites, and feature musical instruments brought along the Silk Road and eventually to Japan. They are looking at the strong relationship between the rest of Asia and Japan from ancient times, which is probably especially interesting if one is Japanese. So yes, check out Silk Road I, as our "host" notes here, for more on that topic :^)
How you totally left out talking about the brave ppl of Punjab shame on ur sincerity and gave all the battle ferocity to the elephants biased English against the punjabis and Seeks
