A history documentary on the Flat Earth Theory and how Flat Earthers were debunked over 2,000 years ago. Go to squarespace.com/Invicta to get a free trial and 10% off your first purchase.
The video takes a look at what people in the past thought about the shape of the earth. Here is an outline of the major topics:
1. Early Flat Earth Models - What did people from our earliest civilizations like the Sumerians and Babylonians think of the shape of the earth and of cosmology.
2. Simple Observations of a Round Earth - An overview of common ways that common people could clue in to the real shape of the earth.
3. Greeks and a Round Earth - The successions of ancient Greek philosophers who debunked the flat earth model and built up consensus around the round earth view.
4. Details of a Round Earth - The brilliant experiment of Eratosthenes which used the angles of shadows to calculate the circumference of the earth.
5. The Round Earth Prevails - How the belief of the Round Earth came to be the commonly accepted view of the world 2000 years ago.

I absolutely love covering topics like this where we explore how people in the past came to a better understanding of our world. Their often ingenious methods are quite amazing! If you haven't already, definitely check out our previous episodes on how people told time (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EF5VyyQN38Q.html) and how they navigated the world (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1W7zgA1koGg.html).

One that might be of interest to you is how the ancient Romans utilized maggots for healing wounds. there's been a resurgence in this in the medical community for the past few years. One thing I've been having trouble finding in my research is how the ancient Romans eliminated the maggots when they were no longer useful.

My only request is that you add how other societies came to the same conclusion independently. We know that the Han Dynasty understood the world was round but I'm not sure that we know exactly why they came to that conclusion. Similar conclusions Were Made in India and Persia although the latter may have been influenced by the Hellenic world. In short the Eurasian people of all kinds came to this conclusion in somewhat separate ways at about the same time.

wrong. the flat earther is most likely to be the guy who you hated that slept through class and still got better grades then you. this whole video is disinformation. quit insulting people and go look in the mirror. This is rewritten history. There were no heliocentrist 2000 years ago except free masons. In the 1600s the church prohibited copernicansim. Gallello Galilei was condemned a heretic in the church and condemned from the church in 1616. Everyone on this flat plain knew it was a flat plain until Gallello re launched Copernicus' THEORY(the earth moves not the sun is still only a theory Gallello offered no proof either) Gallello lived 1564-1642. Copernicus lived 1473-1543. Most of Copernicus work was early 1500-1520, and most was published later in the century. none of this is 2000 years ago. And one or two made up or random thoughts from some Greek guys 2000 years ago doesn't change that no one believed them until Copernicus and Gallello. Some churches were still geocentric until 1900. And even schools in America taught flat earth after the 1900s. all facts. I have an American dictionary in my shed from early 1900s that says the earth has a firmament over it.

And contrary to popular belief, in late medieval Europe, the round Earth model was widespread, as scholars were well-read in ancient authors and knew their views well. Hell, Columbus wanted to use this very model in his idea to getting to India by going westwards long enough. What he didn't know is that Earth was quite a bit larger than he expected, and that there layed a continent inbetween...

@Scotty Storm Your inability to understand what you are reading is not evidence to support you. Just conveniently ignore the sections that cover the globe, rotation of the earth, and gravity. It's part of a problem solving process that you clearly do not comprehend. You read your little part and assumed it supported you when in fact if you actually understand the article and read it in full it destroys flat earth. In the meantime you can't even provide a functioning FE map or model, functioning FE flight plan, or a measurement to support a FE. Those things would be easy to provide if the earth was indeed flat. In the meantime all the globe maps and model line up with the real world just fine. Same with flight plans and measurements. But hey thanks for showing everyone reading this the dishonesty, willful ignorance, and confirmation bias of flat earthers. Thanks for another easy win for the globe kiddo.

@danieljust295
@danieljust295 3 года назад
No. FE model has four corners. Don’t forget that the Bible says also about a firmament, the firmament (made from molten glass), the seas are limited, there are pillars and bars that holds the Earth, the earth is immovable, the Earth resembles footstool, can be shaken. In the Book of Joshua you have event when the Sun stood still for three days - impossible on Globe Earth but possible on FE. Further the Bible says the sky is like a tent that can be rolled up, the Sun and the Moon are two lights (source lights). And in Revelations, Jerusalem will eventually come down from Heaven to the Earth. The size of Jerusalem will be 2000 x 2000 x 2000 miles. Again impossible on round Earth, but possible of FE - because we don’t know the true size of the earth. The Bible definitely supports FE rather than floating Round Earth.

Ibrahim Bashir Maybe you don’t understand what Flat Earth is. FE is flat plane with circular base and firmament (dome) over it, so this is enclosed system designed by God. The Earth is handiwork of God, God created the Earth not Big Bang. The Earth is surrounded by ice wall - this is what gives the Earth circular form, but behind the dome the fundament is squared, so has four corners. You can’t see these corners from inside the Earth, but God reveals they are. Most likely this is how the Earth looks like (according the Bible): images.app.goo.gl/wSQq2CpQGL2fb7mS9 See this FE conference to understand what I am talking about: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oG_-BYKaehI.html Evidence against ball Earth: 1. You can see CN tower (height: 500m) across Ontario lake from distance 60km, from elevation 1.5m. Do the math. The tower should be hidden 250m due to assumed “curvature” , but it isn’t. You can see that with P900 -P1000 Nikon camera. None of optical phenomena can explain why we can see this tower if the earth is ball. 2. The way gyroscopes work. Planes use gyroscopes because they “adjust” to gravity force direction, so the plane can mainframe orientation. However, gyroscopes are also used in space shuttles because they are independent from gravity and maintain its spatial position - you can’t have it both ways, unless the Earth is flat. 3. Day time Moon. The way Moon is lit during day time doesn’t correspond position of the Sun during the day, and the Sun can’t be the source of light that is “reflected” from the Moon. Contradiction. Lack of evidence proving spinning ball: 1. The weight of an object should be less on Equator than measured on latitude closer to the pole due to centrifugal force influence - never proven. 2. If gravity force is defined as force that arises between large masses then the gravity force direction measured on the Earth should be constantly changing, because this direction is superposition of all gravity forces between all celestial bodies - never proven 3. Shadow is never smaller than the object we shine light onto. Umbra and preumbra can’t be recreated in lab, if the distance between the source and the lit object is large, but can be reproduced in the source is close to the object. Eratosthenes made fundament mistake performing his experiment. He assumed the Earth is a ball and he assumed the sun rays are parallel, then using sticks he calculated circumference of the Earth. This is logical fallacy.

The *bible IS very literal in it's false teaching* of geocentricity: Joshua 10:12 " Then spoke Joshua to the LORD... Sun, stand thou STILL... and thou [also] Moon..." Joshua commanded _both the Sun AND the Moon_ to stand still, NOT the Earth, which proves that the bible writers believed that the Sun moved, and traveled around the Earth, and _could actually be stopped by a man's prayer_ to Yahweh/Jesus ! Yahweh/Jesus could even REVERSE the Sun's movement ! ! Isaiah 38:7-8 describes a prophetic sign by Yahweh regarding King Hezekiah's recovery by reversing the Sun's movement by 10° " Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sundial of Ahaz, ten degrees BACKWARD. So the Sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down " Yahweh could even _ACCELERATE_ the Sun's movement ! ! ! Amos 8:9 " And it shall come to pass in that day.... that I will cause the Sun to go down at NOON, and I will darken the Earth in the clear day " Habakkuk 3:11 attests to stopping the Sun's movement " The Sun and the Moon stood still in their habitation..." The bible writers believed that Yahweh Jesus controlled the Sun' movement _in real time_ as Job 9:6 describes Yahweh's power " Which commands the Sun and it rises not " Remember that 8 scriptures were used to convict Galileo of heresy in 1633 for publishing the science that the Earth revolved around the Sun ( in opposition to the bible ).

If the light would work like a projector than a radial shine, it would curve over, not be a pure 50%. Some light would get to the other side, which we haven’t noticed. A light bulb is not even comparable to the sun. Stars from more than hundreds of lightyears away can reach us, because they’re strong enough to emit enough light to reach our eyes. The sun is well known for being stronger than these faraway stars, so how can we not see it from a distance not even close to a lightyear?

@Britannic hayyomatt and why would a person believing such utter idiocy not be worthy of scorn? the flat earth model can literally be disproved by a 5 year old with even a basic grasp of logic. I have looked at the "arguments" (and I use that term very loosely here) used by the flat earthers as has many others before me, many of whom have far greater grasp of things than me and not one of their arguments is well thought out or logical. the entire Idea is literally a willful denial of the reality around them. it would be one thing if the believers of this absurdity were from some backwoods tribe from the amazon or Africa where education is still a spotty or in some cases nonexistent thing but they as a rule are not. the people buying this load are from first and second world nations where air travel is a normal thing. on a side not most Christians readily accept scientific explanations of the world around them. the only ones that don't are the small fraction that subscribe to creationism (an equally ludicrous belief). and no the flat earthers don't have answers they have denial, and a belief that is utterly worthless in accurately describing the world.

I want to agree with you about it not being a failure of education, really I do. but the sad reality is these beliefs are being found in populations where the understanding of why the belief is such utterly wrong crap, is literally covered when they are still children. added to it the fact that the entire lifestyle these people have is predicated on science working. to hold the belief that "science" is wrong is...... utterly retarded. there are people with a 40 IQ that have grasped this reality better than the flat earth crowd. I don't scorn their beliefs because I don't understand why they hold it I scorn them because it is a stupid wrong belief that in no way resembles reality. at least with belief in a god or spirits there is no actual data showing they don't exist, nothing showing they do either. but at least that belief is not directly contradicted by the reality around one

This globe nonsense wasn't widely believed until 500-600 years ago. 2000 years ago no one believe the earth was a globe. That just an outright lie! The civilizations before us who knew the earth was flat also navigated the sea. How did they ever do that? How did they not get lost? How did the ancient people of the world survive? How did the build pyramid and megalithic structures that align with the celestial bodies? They build structures that modern societies cannot replicate even with their modern advanced technology? You can't fool me because I am not confused about who the real primitive people are. Yours globevearth leaders are using the same flat earth technology to navigate the seas and the air. They simply tell you it's based on globe technology. If the earth was a glove then the ancients should not have been able to travel let alone survive and build everything they did.

Everyone on this flat plain knew it was a flat plain until Gallello re launched Copernicus' THEORY(the earth moves not the sun is still only a theory Gallello offered no proof either) Gallello lived 1564-1642. Copernicus lived 1473-1543. Most of Copernicus work was early 1500-1520, and most was published later in the century. none of this is 2000 years ago. And one or two made up or random thoughts from some Greek guys 2000 years ago doesn't change that no one believed them until Copernicus and Gallello. Some churches were still geocentric until 1900.

Don K under another video about flat Earth : "The earth is flat and stationary according to scriptures." Don K under this video : "Religion relies on the curve optical illusions" (Meaning the science and the fact Earth is spherical are a religion). From where I come from, we call that being utterly hypocritical, or really challenged.

Aren't we lucky to be on the top of the disc of the flat Earth, as flat Earthers say that gravity is not a force if we were on the other side we would fall off into space. Perhaps there is another whole civilisation on the other side with it's own flat Earthers?

You mentioned in the bible the circle of the earth in other words not flat but a sphere because the Hebrew word for circle could also mean sphere so no the bible says the earth is a sphere not flat. Not only that it also mentions that the earth is hanging upon nothing exactly in line with what we see in outer space.

If we have half a glass of water, and tell normal people to describe it, they would either say that the glass is half full or that the glass is half empty. But if you do the same with a Flat Earther, they would say that the glass is flat because the water is sticking on it They would then go on to feel proud about themselves, thinking that their statement made sense.

Produce your empirical evidence there’s a GOOEY🤤molten😂magnetic🤣CORE🤡🤡🤡 at the center of your magical pear shaped space testicle #BallFondlers #BallFetish #SimpleJack How many licks does it take 😆 #BrokeBackGlobetard George Orwell on 🌎: “Does NOT rest on reasoning or on experiment but on AUTHORITY” “SOMEWHERE or other-I think it is in the preface to Saint Joan-Bernard Shaw remarks that we are more gullible and superstitious today than we were in the Middle Ages, and as an example of modern credulity he cites the widespread belief that the earth is round. The average man, says Shaw, can advance not a single reason for thinking that the earth is round. He merely swallows this theory because there is something about it that appeals to the twentieth-century mentality. Now, Shaw is exaggerating, but there is something in what he says, and the question is worth following up, for the sake of the light it throws on modern knowledge. Just why do we believe that the earth is round? I am not speaking of the few thousand astronomers, geographers and so forth who could give ocular proof, or have a theoretical knowledge of the proof, but of the ordinary newspaper-reading citizen, such as you or me. As for the Flat Earth theory, I believe I could refute it. If you stand by the seashore on a clear day, you can see the masts and funnels of invisible ships passing along the horizons. This phenomenon can only be explained by assuming that the earth’s surface is curved. But it does not follow that the earth is spherical. Imagine another theory called the Oval Earth theory, which claims that the earth is shaped like an egg. What can I say against it? Against the Oval Earth man, the first card I can play is the analogy of the sun and moon. The Oval Earth man promptly answers that I don’t know, by my own observation, that those bodies are spherical. I only know that they are round, and they may perfectly well be flat discs. I have no answer to that one. Besides, he goes on, what reason have I for thinking that the earth must be the same shape as the sun and moon? I can’t answer that one either. My second card is the earth’s shadow: when cast on the moon during eclipses, it appears to be the shadow of a round object. But how do I know, demands the Oval Earth man, that eclipses of the moon are caused by the shadow of the earth? The answer is that I don’t know, but have taken this piece of information blindly from newspaper articles and science booklets. Defeated in the minor exchanges, I now play my queen of trumps: the opinion of the experts. The Astronomer Royal, who ought to know, tells me that the earth is round. The Oval Earth man covers the queen with his king. Have I tested the Astronomer Royal’s statement, and would I even know a way of testing it? Here I bring out my ace. Yes, I do know one test. The astronomers can foretell eclipses, and this suggests that their opinions about the solar system are pretty sound. I am therefore justified in accepting their say-so about the shape of the earth. If the Oval Earth man answers-what I believe is true-that the ancient Egyptians, who thought the sun goes round the earth, could also predict eclipses, then bang goes my ace. I have only one card left: navigation. People can sail ships round the world, and reach the places they aim at, by calculations which assume that the earth is spherical. I believe that finishes the Oval Earth man, though even then he may possibly have some kind of counter. It will be seen that my reasons for thinking that the earth is round are rather precarious ones. Yet this is an exceptionally elementary piece of information. On most other questions I should have to fall back on the expert much earlier, and would be less able to test his pronouncements. And much the greater part of our knowledge is at this level. It does not rest on reasoning or on experiment, but on authority. And how can it be otherwise, when the range of knowledge is so vast that the expert himself is an ignoramous as soon as he strays away from his own speciality? Most people, if asked to prove that the earth is round, would not even bother to produce the rather weak arguments I have outlined above. They would start off by saying that ’everyone knows’ the earth to be round, and if pressed further, would become angry. In a way Shaw is right. This is a credulous age, and the burden of knowledge which we now have to carry is partly responsible.” 🤡cult god g g g grabbiddy?...just made up💩 for sheeple accepting theoretical maff as science...that’s a beLIEf making globetardia a CULT Newton made up gravity & later they realized the calculations lead to a giant singularity where all of the universe gets squished into oblivion To counter that they made up dark energy which is basically anti-gravity ...but then calculations now showed everything will move away from each other until dark energy rips the very fabric of ‘outer space’ So to balance both...they made up dark matter to hold gravitons & dark energies together It’s just one imaginary justification after another...TO FIT IN WITH OTHER MADE UP 💩 Tesla on relativity: “The theory, wraps all these errors & fallacies and clothes them in magnificent mathematical garb which fascinates, dazzles and makes people BLIND to the underlying errors. The theory is like a beggar clothed in purple WHOM IGNORANT PEOPLE take for a king. It’s exponents are very brilliant men, but they are meta-physicists rather than SCIENTISTS. ***NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THE RELATIVITY PROPOSITIONS HAS BEEN PROVED***” Tesla: “Today’s scientists have substituted mathematics for experiments, and they wander off through equation after equation, and eventually build a structure which has no relation to reality.” Fun Fact: Wernher von braun a certified nazi & founding member of na$$holes wrote a sci-fi novel where a man named ELON leads a COLONY on MARS #FakeX 😂🤣🤤👋...satellites? arthur c clarke #CoincidenceTheorist Religion...from latin Religare “to tie back; to hold back; to thwart from forward progress; to bind” A system of control based in unchallenged dogmatic beLIEf which holds back the progress of consciousness...
