Jelling Stone: 3D scans reveal power of a Viking queen - BBC News 

who cares?

@@astroboirap We do.

This is very interesting!

@@carmenm.4091 I'll give some examples of these two-syllable names which I have discovered on Iron Age Tartessian inscriptions (mainly in south-western Iberia and round the year 500 BC). The names are: Saga, Ida, Yrsa, Buri, Burro, Bodo, Ala, Urke, Salo, Kusi, Boro, etc. Don't they sound like Scandinavian names?

@@juancolladocanas4989 Saga, Ida and Yrsa ARE 100% Scandinavian names. That's rather interesting indeed!

Saga, Iða, ​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠Yrsa and Búri are Scandinavian names. Some of the others could be of Finno-Ugric origin ​@@juancolladocanas4989

I would guess that have to do with the Goths (from Gotland, Sweden). There are evidence of them popping up all over Europe, like in Portugal. People moved around a lot more than people think. If you stayed through a drought or a lost harvest, you died.

My family descends from this dynasty and most of the royal houses! We live in Appalachia Alabama. Most people don’t realize that a lot of early North American settlers were nobility that’s how they could afford to come here. I share DNA with a lot of high status burials.

So how was Haralds DNA obtained ?

@@admiralbenbow5083 I would imagine from his teeth. Harald Bluetooth remains are buried in a tomb in Roskilde Domkirke, Denmark. Roskilde were the former capital of Denmark, situated an little hours drive from Copenhagen. It are situated in the bottom of a long deep but rather shallow fjord. Vikings roamed there because their ships were safe from weather and potential enemies that would have to travel through the entire fjord to reach the ships and the city. In Roskilde many buried Viking ships have been found, some used as burial ships for Viking leaders others old worn ones as secret underwater obstacles that would be unknown for any enemies. Today you will, besides the Church where also Danish Kings and Queens still are buried in a personal tomb to this date, you can find Roskilde Viking museum with actual ships that have been found, dug up and preserved for all to see. They also have a open workshop where actual building of Viking ships take place with same tools as then. The ships that have been made now give visitors the option of trying to sail an actual viking ship with themselves as engines. Maybe I am biased as a Dane but it are a great museum that gives great insights into a lot of Viking related history and living. One more thing...Our current Queen, Margrethe the second, that after the sad passing of Queen Elisabeth, now are the longest reigning royal monarch in the world have more than a normal artistic gene and she have designed her own tomb, that will ensure she wont be forgotten as long as Denmark and Roskilde church remains. It are already in pace for all to see, the only empty royal tomb. May it be empty long to come but it truly are a tomb to see and i urge any coming by to not only look at the oldest ones but give this one a look too!

Double small world...Our future Queen will be Mary that originates from Tasmania/Australia. Women have power now as then...he-he ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pD-f45TbvEw.html

That is so exciting!

Yes, we share both a lot of words and names...and genes. If you ever come to Denmark you should consider visiting Roskilde, the former capital of Denmark during Viking times. Many Kings and Queens are buried there, from late Viking times up until to day. Also a large Viking museum there with actual dug up Viking ships and much more.

@Mike-zx1kx have been. Lochlann as we named it in Irish. Land of the lakes. The wind does not blow but one way.

@@Mike-zx1kxmany… not “ a lot” …

Most feared warriors of the World..... seems more like a mongol Thing. ( i like viking stuff more though xD)

I have a feeling you are going to LOVE this Viking related clip that addresses that very issue..... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pD-f45TbvEw.html

I guess we only think of it as "immense power" because we have so little power now.

@@Jezhawk The Queen of Denmark are woman, Margrethe the second. She are genetically directly related to our first Kings and Queens. She have been in reign, since the sad passing of Queen Elisabeth (another woman) for the longest in the world and are thus topping the global royal protocol. If you as a woman in the free world do not have power today it are because you have not worked hard enough and brought the needed sacrifices to get there OR simply not have the capacity. A majority of European universities right now have a larger female uptake than male!

And they still are 😊 happy wife happy life

I was here before Kilroy, but my pensel was broken.

I honestly wonder if they made it as accurate as possible, whether or not they would have added olivey/skin tones as well given recent archaeological findings of viking and celtic graves. In all honesty, real accurate portrayals would be cool and I think could change the way people view history. Something so vast full of migrations and population movements. You see WW1 and WW2 movies in the US but never for example hear the German of the midwest or Italian of NYC and New Jersey. Never a thing showing the actual humanistic landscape. They had potential to make "Prey" or whatever the movie was on Disney + genuinely more accurate but the French were known as being much more friendly to the natives and even assimilating to native cultures rather than seeing native populations as a threat to their own gains.

Not black? That's odd

​@@Ian-dn6ldah, you are mostly brain washed. Of course, the English never fucked the natives. That's a given historical fact.

@@curiositycloset2359 most of these "they want you to think that x character is BLACK" is just right wing baiting tbh who think that movies is the way people learn history.

@@underarmbowlingincidentof1981 right wing baiting? I don't even believe in right wing and left wing. I just find it funny when people fall for obvious psyop

Been that way for years

@@beepboopbeepp not like that You should have seen it before they fixed it

That's interesting 🌻

No wonder, as they all share the same precursor.

If you go to Haga Sophia in Turkey you can find Viking Runic graffiti carved in the marble on the balcony. All documented and there to this date.

old Székely-Hungarian (Scythian) runic script.... British history falsification is the biggest.....

😮

Well said! Awful, jarring, grating 'music' which spoilt the presentation.

Celebrate diversity, comrades! This is truly original music. You simply have not done the work. Be better!

Because Canadians don't pay for it? Maybe that's why

Because its even more leftist than the cbc.

My mum always said, that if she could go back in time, she would go back in time and kill the first Christian missionaries, that tried to convert the Danes. That was a disaster for Scandi women. She was right. BTW - if you are interested in Viking women, read up on Gudrid Thorbjørnsdatter, - even though she died as a christian, she was quite something.

So you didn’t watch to the end.

I've heard of tree hugging, but never stone hugging 😂😊

Why did it need a narrator?

Heir to land that's not all bloody SWAMP. And no singing.

@@bretthess6376 glad somebody got the reference, lol

This can't be right. Her name was originally "Thorvi", the feminine version of "Thor" which is of course linked to the old Norse god of thunder. "Thorvi" later evolved to "Thyra" and so we call her the modern version of her name.

@@Andrea-tr1wm interesting but from your presentation you have no problems changing the letter “o” to to the letter “y” which according to can be changed into the “I” in pronunciation Ti and Thy sounds the same. Vi or Vy or Vo are then the same word combination which according to must be Ra as in Thyra. Hence is not inconceivable that Thyra or Thorvi is a composite name originally derived from TiRA. Tara is also a common name derived from Sanskrit and Gaelic which means “star “ or “hill”. Ti in Mesopotamia languages can mean side or life.

@@rachmondhoward2125 that's all good, but I believe you've misunderstood me: on the rune stones her name is written "Thorvi". So that is the name she had when she was alive. Since the old nordic languages evolved into what they now are, the old norse name "Thorvi" became "Thyra" in modern danish, so that's what we call her now.

@@Andrea-tr1wm Noted Andrea. We all learn and grow from different perspectives. Thanks for sharing your perspective.

@@rachmondhoward2125 thank you aswell 😁

Very interesting observation and proposition. Hmm??

No

Oh stop it.

If those other danes where alive and could read, they'd be very upset.

​@tothelighthouse9843 no no no. Obviously Neil degrasse Tyson builds a teleportation machine, designed by the ghost of Stephen hawking who figured out how to separate his consciousness from his body before he died. Then together they teleport Bill Nye to your location to kneel and present you with a bow tie.

My fave: Edward Longshanks.

Æthelred the Unready has always seemed beautifully on the nose

The word “blue” in Scottish and Irish is “gorm” so that could be a clue or just a coincidence

Don't think sso, problably bluetooth

The name of the viking queen is spelt Thyra and is a feminine derivative of the name Thyr or Tyr, who is the nordic God of war and conflict and worshipped by the vikings. But then - the viking culture had it's heydays in 600-900 AD, whereas the yogic culture of asia can trace it's origins some 12.000 years back. So there's room for you to be on to something, even still.

Sure, why not? How wonderful that so many Norse towns have been found in what is now Poland. My ancestors ranged far and asked no man's leave.

Slavs always inhabited modern Poland. Not only poles. Germanic peoples moved in throughout 9th century.
