Thank you so much qe really appreciate what you doing you are the best at what you do. I wana point out one thing The name somalia is from the Italian colony name for somali regions The called somaliland. .English somalia..Djibouti the called France somalia. The British called the somali regions somaliland so France somaliland Italian somaliland and British somaliland when we united June 1 1960 the official name was THE SOMALI DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC not Somalia and not somaliland but like everything else in that union this incompetent arrogant somalia changed it 1991 The somali people collectively we call are self's " dhulka shanta somali" meaning 5 somali regions. That wher divided by the colonials and that is what the white star on the bleu flag of Somalia represents and the somaliland BLACK star alsow represents that but opposite reasons.so what I really means is when you say greater "somalia" and if you said greater somaliland would be the same one name is from the Italians and one from the British Thank very much again you are the GOAT 🐐

For me, the romance of these places comes from the fact that, even though much of their meaning and implication is lost on someone so many years later like myself, someone from so long ago is communicating with me, someone so disconnected in time that they may as well be from another planet. There's something exciting about that difference. Even if all I can interpret is the beauty, I'm listening and ever-so-slightly understanding.

Cave paintings like Laas Geel often provide a valuable insight into the distant past as they give a clear picture of not how just a culture acted but what type of environment they lived in and how it worked. In this case, it shows that the Horn of Africa was a lot less arid about 5,000 years ago. At the same time much of the Saharan Desert did not exist, instead it was home to a vast river basin that would have supported a vast grassland that would have been home to animals we wouldn't usually associate with the Sahara such as rhinos.

@kindsoul8120 3 года назад

Beyonce Why do I notice things? Jump to the clip 1:57 and you'll see Laas Geel (Somali: Laas Geel), also spelled Laas Gaal, are cave formations on the rural outskirts of Hargeisa, Somaliland in Somalia, situated in the Maroodi Jeex region of the country. They contain some of the earliest known cave paintings of domesticated African aurochs (Bos primigenius africanus) in the Horn of Africa. Laas Geel's rock art is estimated to date somewhere around circa 18,000 BC or 20,000 years ago. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-agCgvFTJeRs.html

These little peeks into history, archeology, sociology, political discourse and progress, plus your exceptional narrative make rise that "desire to wander" I've always had. I want to SEE what you see, interpret what's there and what you show us, always, always leaves me awestruck. Every. Single. Time! 💯% my favourite channel on this platform. My second favourite is a far, far second. These make me think, yearn for knowledge and sometimes, ache for those gone before. That you are bringing us the "inside story" to places rarely viewed, showing us~not the poverty and toil of the people ~ but their history, pride of place and love of their homeland, makes this a joy. Rather than make us feel like voyeurs (as did the video about slum tourism. I was both disgusted and deeply saddened by that video) you make us feel like we are doing exactly what we are doing. Looking from the outside in, being respectful and with no ideals thrown in. Pure and simple. Wonderful. Thank you Evan et al. You do really, really good work. Jenn 💖 in Canada 🍁 ☺

The people who made these paintings are the progenitors of Somali civilisation. These are the people who's decendants would go on to found the ancient kingdom of Punt and Macrobia and the many wealthy cities throughout from the gulf of Aden to the coast of Kenya. If our ancestors could see us today they would be ashamed of us, weak and divided and most importantly forgetting their legacy. If more archeological work is funded and we begin digging up our past all across greater Somalia we might remember how great we could be.

I love that the unnamed artists essentially immortalized their animals this way. If herding was their way of life, then they would have felt very strongly about their stock.

@shahbazsheikh3545 4 года назад

Thank you prehistoric Picasso. May your offspring prosper in peace.

@SimonSozzi7258 4 года назад

So beautiful. Looks like Picaso or more like Joan Miro. Picasso is quoted as saying, or allegedly quoted as saying; “We have invented nothing new”, after seeing the cave paintings at Lascaux France. “After Altamira, all is decadence”, when he exited the infamous caves in his native Spain. Curiously there are no official cited sources for Picasso to have ever uttered the above two quotes. When you research both quotes, you will find variants and subtle word changes, but essentially you can find numerous sources that redact these quotes. Whether he said something similar (or not) is not the point of my discussion and I am not about to challenge the quotes validity. His body of work in painting and sculpture does mirror the prehistoric cave images in some pieces. He possessed two reproductions of the, “Venus of Lespugue”, and is cited as saying the following: “In reality, we know very little. What is conserved in the ground? Stone, bronze, ivory, bone, sometimes pottery. Never wood objects, no fabric or skins. That completely skews our notions about primitive man. I don’t think I’m wrong when I say that the most beautiful objects of the “stone age” were made of skin, fabric, and especially wood. The “stone age” ought to be called the “wood age.” How many African statues are made of stone, bone, or ivory? Maybe one in a thousand! And prehistoric man had no more ivory at his disposal than African tribes. Maybe even less. He must have had thousands of wooden fetishes, all gone now”. Copyright notice: Excerpted from pages 92-102 of Conversations with Picasso by Brassaï, translated by Jane Marie Todd, published by the University of Chicago Press. ©1999 by the University of Chicago. All rights reserved. Originally published as Conversations avec Picasso text and photographs © Gilberte Brassai and Editions Gallimard, 1964, 1997. So the argument that Picasso was only minimally influenced by prehistoric art is a realm of discourse that I dare not to tread in. Picasso was influenced by prehistoric art. He was a man of art and knew that prehistoric artisans would have created art from skin, fabric and wood. And these are the organic elements of art that unfortunately cannot be dug up by archeology-they are gone! So the theater of speculation and postulation is the only way to approach the subject. What did the Palaeolithic art, made from skin, fabric and wood resemble?

Sorry to burst your bubble but the Dhaymoole cave painting and the Laas Geel rock art cave pai time also depict horses (something hunter gatherers never even knew about let alone draw), camels (again o ly pastoralists people like Skmalis would draw this) Crucially, the Somali caves such as Dhaymoole and Laas Geel, among others, show depictions of an ancient 28 day calendar system and complex constellations of stars Importantly there is also rock art drawings of a moon, a half moon and a rectangle with two intersecting lines, dividing it into 4 parts, there are also various drawings of a constellation of stars shows as a few stars drawn in a certain patter .. this is direct evidence of of an ancient neolithic calendar system that has 28 day cycles, dr Saada mire also worked with local Somali astrology experts and they managed to easily explain the rock art depicting the star constellations as show a well known existing star constellation These findings from an archeological perspective are extremely interesting, the fact that we have evidence of a neolithic 28 day cycle calendar system and knowledge about complex star constellations dated to more than 5000 years ago..as well as the first depictions of sheep cows and even humans on horseback in the horn of africa and possibly all of africa You san orKhoisan hunter gatherer cave paintings WILL NEVER EVER EVER show any ancient calendar systems especially a Somali cusbiric 28 day cycle calendar systemt in our rock art sites like Dhaymoole that show rock art drawings, they will also never show any drawings of actual constellations of stars, or horses etc Our paintings are more advanced because our society was the first advanced pastoral society in east africa called proto Somalis proto Cushites descended from the Natufian levantine neolithic farmers

There's a bit in one of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books that mentions a means of execution. A device (plugged into a fresh hot chip of tea) shows to you the staggering scale of the universe and it blows your mind so thoroughly that you're as well as dead. This feels a little like that. A little like a mix of awe and being crushed at the idea of someone reaching out to us from centuries ago, someone who probably had no intention other than making something for the people around them, or maybe just themselves. And we can take so much information from it about the artist's surroundings, but nothing about the artist themselves. A message in a bottle from so long ago has to mean something special, but also could reasonably mean nothing more than "I feel like expressing my surroundings".
