Mining This Rock Unlocks the Bronze Age

@@songohan5960 stop being so negative, the world doesn't need more of that.

@@songohan5960 You explain some negative points, and casually end with:" this guy should quit or kill himself." Lmao

Including bronze age collapse 😢

Louis next book should be called the golden age :p the age of communication

Sounds reasonable. A material in higher abundance will often win out over one that's harder to obtain.

I'm also going to add here that this is also a part of the reason why it's important to note that the whole "Stone age", "Bronze age" "Iron age" etc system isn't actually a linear progression of technological or societal advancement. Rather, it's just a retroactive label we give to different periods of Eurasian history. The reason this is so important is because a lot of people incorrectly assume that some cultures or civilizations are more or less complex solely based on their choice of material used for tools and weapons. The Mesoamericans (Aztec, Maya, etc) and Andeans (Inca, etc) often get labelled as "Stone age" cultures (despite the fact that both groups actually did have bronze metallurgy) simply because wood and stone was the primary materials used for tools, despite the fact that both were far more complex then that in virtually every other respect: Larger Mesoamerican cities dwarfed even the largest cities from Bronze age Mesopotamia and Egypt, even giving some large Roman, Persian, and Greek cities from classical anitquity and Medieval europe a run for their money in size (Teotihuacan for example, outright covered a larger area then Rome did at it's height, and with virtually all it's citizens in fancy multi-room palace complexes) and the complexity of their water mangement systems (interconnected water resvoirs, agricultural canals, aquaducts, and drainage systems were ubiquitous, with running water, sewage systems, toilets, etc being in a number of cities) Their goverments, political systems, economics, military complexity, mathematics, and artistic and intellectual achievements are all also more complexity then a "stone age" monkier implies, variously being more comparable to what you see in Bronze, Iron, Classical, or Medieval societies.

@@MajoraZ Of course; I should add that the bronze age collapse that I referred to above only applies to classical Mediterranean civilization. Perhaps one of the reasons why centro- and south-American cultures didn't transition off bronze was the lack of "sea peoples" to invade them... Until some "sea peoples" showed up soon after 1492, and then it was too late.

Umm it's more widespread because of two things;the most of the surface level bronze was used up;and second iron was so much more abundant even before they started mining bronze;it's just that they could only be used like ornatments(pyrite) coz of the 1,5k C melting point.

A great period summarized greatly.

This sounds familiar

From what I understand it would be much easier to use Thorium instead. Because it's more common and easier to prepare. Would still need a little uranium though for the process.

@@The_Great_Wrennicles_the_IV do you watch sam o'nella?

XDDDD

Recreate the DEMON CORE! XDDDD

@@The_Great_Wrennicles_the_IV and because Thorium has a much higher nuclear output compared to its radioactive leftovers. It puts out much less than Uranium.

@Jules Vallez it's actually not that difficult if you know somewhat what you are doing. You wouldn't even need a full screen, as long as you can get information to the storage and from the processor in some form

Reminds me of that guy who built a computer inside minecraft :D

As far as i know, theyer found anywhere theres old valcanos, like most of the western U.S.

thats why i love living in Cornwall its special its rare and all the history

35 or so years ago I worked in geology in cornish tin mines. It's sad now they are mostly gone. I am Cornish born and proud of it.

I see what you did there....

Good one

Well, the tech is over 70 years old, and well known. The problem's mostly with getting the nuclear material. If you go with the Hiroshima design, it's also pretty easy to manufacture, though less safe. A Fat Man type bomb is gonna be more complex because of the implosion mirrors, but there's plenty of precision machining to go around.

Watch out for the hob goblins, I hear there’s diplomacy happening north of falador, a bit west of the black knights castle. If you’re lucky, you’ll carry some dyes and eye of newt from south of edgeville. The head hobgoblin loves dyed armor. Watch out for the witch when traveling near Karamja

@@vad3ryt828 and even countless ruins in varying states of destruction that have become well known vacation destinations literally all over Europe and Africa.

people find bronze age artefacts all the time, they're naturally much more corrosion resistant than iron, so there's actually about as many surviving bronze artefacts as there is iron ones. roundhouses, hedges/field systems and workings also survive across most of the world, you just need to know where to look for them.

Ober da, Cornish and proud mate

@disco potato We're all mad here! Btw, both comments (excluding yours, of course) are referring to Alice In Wonderland.

I got that reference.

@@SapioiT Wait a goddamn minute, the original comment refers to the "Wizard of Oz" NOT "Alice in Wonderland" like yours does.

Anakin Lumluk Yep it’s Oz alright.

Best place to start your mining adventure no pesky scorpion

We got to visit that mine when I was in Cub Scouts. (I grew up in Maine.)

Kind of like a "Victory Garden". There was a war going on at the time.

25 years later: let's make a new planet from scratch

When I did a tour of the gold mines in Bendigo the guide explained that the Cornish miners had "Cornish Pasties" for lunch. The pastie had a tall ridge of pastry (a smaller version still seen in some cornish pasties) which was designed to be used as a handle and thrown away. This was so they didnt get any cyanide from their hands onto their food.

Depends where you live. I could go and dig out a couple of kilos from the bottom of my garden.

no, bowel has i think a latin root, while as Cornish is from the Brythonic Celtic language group - along with Welsh and Breton. If you're interested, there is a movement to revive the language after it all but died out

makerj101 already beat him to the combustion engine but that was built out of junk parts and so on..

It's so rare that the only place he'd find it now is in an old mine, all the surface stuff was taken millennia ago, and those mines are protected from people going in with pickaxes because they're too dangerous.

I don't want him to go into a mine and mine it himself. He can get the ore from wherever he wants. He can even order it online for all i care. Ore is ore whether he gets it himself or not, he doesn't have to waste time finding it. What i really wanted him to do was to extract the tin using bronze age techniques instead of modern ones he showed...

@@N0xiety Ah sorry. In that case you have a good point.

Thank you very very much for that, only the unloved hates.

@@fisterB The sponsor chemistry kits are very interesting - i wanna buy 'em ! :-)

Bronze bushings wouldn't need much lubrication. He has tin so he could solder joints to make them water tight.

He was in Britain - probably Marmite. 🤢

medicine related stuff, chemistry books, and stuff on weapons. if we get the social order right and improve healthcare to near modern levels rest doesn't matter

cool story

Just buy some leas free solder, some of themmare 100% tin. If you are doing the collection from elements you 3xtracted, then its a bit harder ☺

Never seen unoriginal comments coming so early...

ive never seen the most stupidest relpy so early

False, the comment that says first is the earliest, most unorigional, stupidest comment on the entire video

All the bikini women are busy digging over at the new mine...

Mr Berryman is this another Cornishman I found on here proud of our Celtic country

My guess / hope is that he will change the rules to something like this: He can buy materials to use as long as he has successfully made that quality/purity of the item before. For example, he made a small amount of relatively pure tin so he can now buy tin metal to use in projects. Because he could theoretically produce it over and over but it wouldn't prove anything beyond what making the first amount already did and it would take a lot more time and money.

Drained from cornwall myself. Thank you
