EXCELLENT !!! EXCELLENT !!! Thank you !! So much like the old documentaries I love without all the loud and obnoxious background NOISE. Thank you.

This episode is awesome.... I generally have a feel of people who know what they're talkin about... This show has really given me an education... Very well put together.... I was scrolling for about an hour and this was the last resort.... What a gem!

I remember staying up to watch the original silk road episodes in the mid 80s, it was one episode a week, at about 3.30 in the morning, midweek,😆👍

Love Craig Parker’s voice narrating this, I knew almost immediately it was him. He has such a soothing voice, perfect for documentaries.

We human beings really have not changed for the wiser since the middle ages. Whenever something bad happens, we look for someone who is different from us to blame. How many innocent lives have been lost.

Well NIMBY works well also if they look just like you but don't follow the exact same social norms as you. Racism is actually a small part of descimanory spectrum.

Richard Leakey pointed out a horse can mate with a Wild Ass and produce fertile offspring yet are more distant in DNA than a human and a chimp. Just a genetic fact. We should be ok as we are not animals rite???

@rickmarti77 Год назад

Excellent documentary. Well worth the watch. Some of the people who rarely get a mention and should be are here. Few working in the medical profession have heard of Galen for example.

@diannamaree7854 Год назад

What? Not heard of Galen? Why am I surprised when Dr. 's barely study nutrition 😢

It's fascinating how as a certain event unfolded or decisions made (eg. Zheng He's armada and his death stops China's global maritime exploration), how the siege of Constantinople by a Muslim Caliphate spelt the demise of the Silk Road which led Europe to seek new ways to reach Asia and the beginning of European colonisation, etc. All in all that changed the course of history or the trajectory of nations along the way to modern times.

@philoso377 Год назад

Silk Road may be regarded as the ancient Internet through which goods and ideas were cross referenced, yet we continue to debate on the origin of customs and artifices, be it East or West.

Istanbul etymology comes from Greek, meaning this is the city

@lumberpilot Год назад

I can see where the ability to produce a surplus amount of grain would not only create room for craftsmen and leaders, but it would also increase the general population the vast majority of which would be farmers creating more and more surplus for a smaller and smaller ruling elite.

Slave system

@kellyross4801 10 месяцев назад

I learned in school that this* is the basis of culture and civilization. If you produce surplus, you don't have to spend literally every waking moment searching for food.

@adamtyson3962 Год назад

@50:50 the claim that Istanbul is "from a Turkish word meaning: 'find Islam'" is complete nonsense. I'm not sure how that got into an otherwise great documentary. It comes from the Turkified Greek phrase "eis tan polis" (εἰς τὴν Πόλιν) meaning "to the city." Perhaps they got confused by another occasional name for Ottoman Istanbul which was "Islambul" which does mean "find Islam" in Turkish as "bul" would be the mandative form of bulmek, the verb "to find."

maize/sweet corn is definitely the perfect illustration of "exotic goods" since it existed exclusively in the Americas before 1500C.E.

We no longer have the type of timber e.g. size and length. Just look at the trouble France had to go through to get the timber to rebuild Notre dame.

26:54 on a different program that focused on plague, they discussed recent findings that plague can be spread with the human body lice (the kind that live in clothing).

One should study history as it's interesting how many times it repeats itself. At least you'll know what probably will be coming???

@Ai-he1dp Год назад

It seens to have come around again, full circle.

@ymhktravel Год назад

Yeah, kinda familiar isn't it? Ming Dynasty China has traded and exchanged goods with Africa, Middle East and gave maritime security to nations along the route centuries ago. Fast forward to present, China is again making inroads to countries in Africa and perhaps the Mid-east. Surely is one full circle and it's not over yet.
