In this guided history tour we visit Port Piraeus, home of the Athenian Navy, which was protected by the famous long walls of Athens! We are joined by Professor Daniel Faas who speaks at length to the history of the Athenian trireme fleet, its port, and its dockyards. This video was filmed in the Assassin's Creed: Odyssey Discovery Mode.
In the video we explore Port Piraeus and its surroundings. We begin by talking about the geography of Athens and the history of its development. This focuses on the building up of its main port and the impressive defensive structure that was the long walls of Athens. We then descend to the ground level to talk about the commercial and military activities taking place. Then we turn to one of the Trireme vessels to talk about their details and use in combat like the battle of salamis. Then we turn to how these ships were built and maintained in ancient Greece. I hope you enjoy this educational documentary on ancient Greek history and Athenian history presented through the the Assassins Creed Odyssey Discovery Mode.

If you love the topic of ancient navies, I recommend you check out our series on the Roman Navy: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7PhRpvPZuIc.html. Also we will be rolling out with some more modern naval content in the weeks ahead, stay tuned!

Yes, this was an excellent video. But I‘ve been waiting for the video on the Imperial Roman fleet for 3 years now! 😅

@DislikeThisCommentNow 4 года назад

Can you make a video on : Could citizens have weapons in Ancient Rome - Where citizen allowed to arm themselves at anytime..was there punishment for having a certain type of weapon on yourself if you weren't part of the legion or guard? It would be an interesting video regarding such things considering it's a big topic in the United States on guns & some States banned the carry of knives as well.

@RomanCourier 4 года назад

Very interesting indeed. Weapon regulations changed over time, the best example being the sacred pomerium. Outside of Rome, there is (even) less clarity about the ancient laws. We do know, however, that slaves were not allowed to wear weapons - meaning tools that are designed to be used as a weapon - with the exception of gladiators within the walls of the arena (not even inside the gladiator school). The lictors couldn’t bring the axes of their fasces inside the pomerium, with the exception of the 24 (!) lictors of a dictator in times of crisis. This would be a big red flag for Roman citizens.

@DislikeThisCommentNow 4 года назад

@@RomanCourier yea true but tools can be used as weapons and vice versa, especially after the early slave revolts and the one we know and love Spartacus. I know these revolts change the way the Romans viewed slaves and as well made them changed rules & laws around that general topic. So much to learn about the Empire...its such a lovely indulgence.

@BoopSnoot 2 года назад

I wish the historian would comment about the population. There are so many black people shown, but I wonder if that's just white developers being "woke" and trying to be inclusive, as I understood that at this time the Greeks should have looked far more white than they even do today, since darker migrants of later centuries had not yet mixed into the population.

@Erikaaaaaaaaaaaaa 2 года назад

@@BoopSnoot The thing is that it's Athens, the greatest trading city in the world at the time. If anything, I think it would be really nice to see Indian spice traders, Carthaginian olive oil salesmen, and Syrian jewelers rather than just generic people

@BoopSnoot 2 года назад

@@Erikaaaaaaaaaaaaa That wouldn't make any sense though. Indians didn't bring their wares all the way to Europe. The land trade routes crossed many hands before making it that far, and the Indians (well wasn't really a country back then) didn't have a wide reaching sea faring trade network. Carthaginians and Syrians would be as white as Greeks. Southern Arab migrations didn't occur at this time, and some people get confused and think that anyone from Africa must be black, but it was sub-Saharan Africans that were black, and the Northern coastline of Africa was colonized by Mediterranean peoples and so would look just like Spaniards, Italians, and Greeks.

@Erikaaaaaaaaaaaaa 2 года назад

@@BoopSnoot The concept of "white" and "black" people isn't very useful when talking about a time period where the separation of people into those two categories wasn't really a thing. The idea of white people as being one race and black people as being this other different race is incredibly modern. Of course there were people around the Mediterranean in ancient times that we would describe as black including in Greece. There are depictions in coins, pottery, and statues of black people in Greece. That's not to say dark-skinned people were the norm, but you're talking about "Greeks" "Syrians" and "Carthaginians" like they're one massive ethnic block, which we know for a fact is not how the Ancients perceived race. Having people with different coloured skins in the largest trading city in the world is entirely fair

8:54 Your point about shipping / cargo insurance is very interesting and sounds surprisingly modern indeed. It was essential to the existence of many harbour cities in ancient times, including Roman ones (Ostia Antica!) after the Greek world set an example. I believe this is the earliest large-scale insurance system in ancient Greece, but I’d be happy to be corrected if it wasn’t. It also seems like a bonus for taking the risk in open sea, both financially and physically.

@barahng 4 года назад

Too bad they didn't get the historical accuracy of what Greeks looked like. The Greeks depicted in this game are darker in complexion than modern Greeks post mass Ottoman rapings. The modern conception of Mediterraneans as a swarthy people comes from the infusion of Turkish and Moorish DNA from mass rape. Back then they would have been as fair skinned as northern italians are today. Ancient sources all concur that Alexander had reddish blonde hair, many other Greek leaders were described as fair haired and skinned. Other cultures described the Greeks as a fair skinned and haired people too. Swarthy people generally don't have fair hair colors like that. The Greeks in this game look like fucking Somalis.

She adds water and she has the dough ready for bread. Anything that needs to be grinded down or any meal that requires a blender in today's world, would have use this machine in ancient times

What a pity it is that there is probably nothing left of the ships sunk in the ancient naval battles like Actium and Ecnomus! Imagine seeing one of those ships on the sea floor - it'd be **awesome!** I guess it's possible that the Romans' metal rams on their ships could be found. I think a lot more could have been done to search the sea floor in the areas of the ancient naval battles.

It's important to know that different states used different tactics with their navies. The Athenian doctrine was "out maneuver the enemy ship and ram it" so they needed more rowers. Other navies preferred boarding so they used more marines.

Frame first ship construction didn't appear until the 5th century AD. To make a ship in this period, first a the shape of the hull was dug out in the ground then the planks would be laid up using mortice and tenon joints, finally, the permanent vertical and horizontal frame pieces would be attached on the inside to retain the shape before the hull was lifted out of the ground.

Very nice job. But the real topography is quite different. Although Piraeus itself is pretty hilly (and much larger), and there is a hill to the north west of the city. The central city and most of the surronding leading to athens are very flat (phalero bay). Actually the famous Greek geographer Strabo wrote in the first century A. D., that Piraeus was formerly an island and lay 'over against' the mainland, from which it got its name, and that's beeing proven by paleoenvironmental analysis that in pre-historic times it was still an island (the name Piraeus comes from "Peran" that means the opposite coast). Soo there only the hills in the Piraeus peninsula, and the higher hill of Kastella and the rocky and hilly terain to the north west and everything arround is flat.... actually Piraeus may become an island again if the temperature rises around 3o celcius.

Not sure about the "cream of the crop" ONLY being allowed in the Piraeus. According to John Hale's work, "Lords of the Sea," any Athenian mariner could go the barbershops in the Piraeus. Rowers, tradesman, and a variety of other clerks and personnel worked in the Piraeus. While it is true that rowers of the triremes were Athenian citizens, they were certainly not the "cream of the crop" of Athenian citizenry. The Piraeus was the military and economic hub of Athens, so many people lived there.
