  1. There's also unrelated, later Art of War by Sun Bin, which was considered lost. And a lot of other treatieses on war from China. What's interesting in Sun Tzu's art of war is that we have commentary on it that's longer than the book itself, one of the earliest written by Cao Cao of later Han era, right before Three Kingdoms. Then later era generals and statement added on top and you have layers upon layers of historical people attributing footnotes to the same book.

  2. Having bath and toilet separated increases the value of aparment here in Ukraine, it's one of the points you see on real estate classifieds: "combined bathroom" or "separated bathroom". And yeah, "toilet" in old books sometimes meant "outfit", I guess same way "closet" can mean either. Hilariously "toiler water" is male perfume. I think you guys use the French version, Eau de toilette.

  3.  @LoudWaffle  Any sources? Never heard anyone claim Paul's letters were fake. Heard claims about other epistles, i.e. Peter, being from different authors, and no definitive answer to how many separate Johns were there (disciple, evangelist, epistlar and revelator). People should really think before making such huge claims unless they want to end up with Hitler's pals who tried to prove Joooooooz stole their works from German aryans, which is slightly less insane than the Mormon crap about Biblaic Murrica.

  4.  @TheDanEdwards  difference between OG Gospels from 1st century and apocryphas claiming to be Jesus disciples 200 years later is literally the same timespan between Napoleonic era handwriting and someone claiming to be Napoleon today.

  5. I literally cannot imagine food without potatoes, tomatoes, and bell pepper. This is like THE staple in Eastern Europe. WTF were our ancestors eating before trade with Americas, just beetroot?

  6.  @WorldofAntiquity  any source? Cause all I see is scholars trying to make up a fake Roman Holiday that didn't exist instead of accepting Christians just counting 9 months from 25th of March, which was celebrated as Jesus conception. Also dates are knowingly picked as symbolic. All that I read on topic had 25th December picked as day of Sol Invictus AFTER Christianity already celebrated it.

  7.  @dr.banoub9233  well you see, the guys who think xenomorphs chiseled stones with their acid blood and built pyramids with their spiky tails aren't the sharpest pencils in the pooper. Races are made up, as in, at one point they consider North Africans white, the other time they don't allow Irish to be whites. As in, being a Catholic automatically disqualifies you from WASP master race. There's no logic behind any of that, it's always arbitrary groups, i.e. Hitler considered Slavs a different race from Germans, but accepted Japanese as "aryans" because it never made any sense.

  8. @ Did my comment disappear? tl;dr: second part is correct people would rather double down than admit they were fooled, that's how most cons work. First part is not, evolutionary psychology is largely debunked, humans do irrational stuff that turns into shamanistic rituals due to same mechanisms OCD is based on. If you knocked on wood and everything went well, then evidently, it worked!

  9. My problem with ALL these "advanced lost civilization" theories is that if they were so advanced why everything they left is literally stone age stuff? If they could use Hi-Tech tools then how come the "proof" of them existing is always just a bunch of rocks put together? Look at modern society, we literally leave more plastics and metal stuff behind than anything out of rocks.

  10. That's like saying that all murder mysteries are plagitarized because there's a body... Or that all love stories are plagitarism because they have two people bonking... This is such a long stretch I think your name must be Armstrong. As someone who likes Egyptian mythology, tell me what part of Bible has Jesus killed by his brother, then cut into 14 parts, and his wife having sex with reanimated body using a clay penis? In fact I will insist you're being disrespectful to Egyptians AND racist to Middle Eastern people in general by claiming they couldn't write their own stories and had to copy Greeks for Zeus love life.

  11. That movie says 9/11 was an inside job, that Atlantis existed, and Moon Landing didn't happen. And that US law means you shouldn't pay taxes. It also shows completely not understanding Egyptian mythology, making mistakes in EVERY. Single. Claim. Just because you hate Christians doesn't make any of Zeitgeist less wrong.

  12.  @Maber01  It's ridiculous to conflate words with different etymology that just sound alike. This is Zadornov level fake linguistics, like him claiming that ra-ssia meant they are the chosen people of the sun god. 1) Marina (Latin: of the sea) and Mary, short of Miriam (Hebrew: wished for child) are COMPLETELY unrelated names, my aunt Marina's Saint day is on DIFFERENT DAY form Marias but shared with Margaret (Greek: pearl) as these names ARE considered equivalent (at least in Orthodox Christianity). 2) Similarly, constellation Virgo has nothing to do with virgin birth. What her (September) and Leo (August) have to do with Aquarius (mostly February)? You guys can't even remember months the 12 zodiacs fall into.

  18. 47:36 It's funny how the older layer has obviously better wall, is it because of lower erosion or just because "they don't build it like they used to?"

  19. ​ @Wodz30  eh, didn't they regularly start calling themselves pharaoh with Hatshepsut? Something to put the more gender-agnostic "great house" status with claims of divine birth over a "king."

  20.  @SteveMorrow-b5c  Isn't Crystal skull just a vodka brand with weirdly shaped bottle? IN any case, anything made from crystal, or any other glass, is just a random work of art, it definitely doesn't prove aliens from Indiana Jones anymore than a drawing of Spider-Man proves Peter Parker is real (and not as cool as Miles Morales).

  21. I mean the archeologist who claimed this theory has a name from the same country whose entire sports team always tests positive for doping... who quickly change nationality to German to avoid getting their "grandpa's heart medicine" get to "accidentally contaminate" everything around them.

  22. Furthermore, 4 is pronounced "shi" in Japanese, which is a homonym for "death", it's a similar story in Chinese. That's why that number is taboo and often replaced and some hotels don't have 4th floor. IT COULD NOT BE A COINCIDENCE THAT PYRAMID NOT ONLY HAS 4 ANGLES BUT ALSO 4 SIDES! Only one explanation: aliens.

  23. 11:40 I cringe from BOTH, please don't mix Latin and English like that, but also don't make one two-letter and other three-letter abbreviation, it's activating my OCD. Should be BC/CE, anything else just sounds bad.

  24. 18:30 Okay gotta give them credit, the meme with turban dude dual-wielding a knife in one hand and NUKULAR BAAAHMB in the other is funny! Imagine fencing like that, dagger or buckler with a giant guided ordnance. Bet HEMA guys didn't see that in Renaissance manuals?

  25.  @ThatBoomerDude56  so if aliens used the acid from their veins to carve off big blocks AND THEN Egyptians carved symbols with a chisel, HOW DID EGYPTIANS SURVIVE?! We all know the only one left at the end of any aliens movie is one final girl... Let's say it was Nitocris... did she cryo-freeze herself to later re-emerge as Cleopatra? What happened to Ian Holm then, there must be an android covered in white goo of some form, can't have an alien without one.

  26. 17:42 George Lucas was heavily influenced by Asian stuff, with the Jedi religion being a mix between his Christian Methodist church he was brought in and Buddhism (force ghosts are a mix of Boddhisattvas and saints). Jedi themselves dress in hanfu and kimino-inspired clothing, lightsabers are modeled after katanas that can swing in any way (hence no force shields) and Darth Vader's armor is heavily modeled on samurai helmet and silhouette. Then comes the women's hairstyles, Padme's dresses and Trade Federation inspired by traditional Chinese nobles clothing.

  27. > It’s impossible for any Abrahamic adherent to consider anywhere other than the Levant and it’s immediate surroundings to be holy land Not exclusively... Mormons and some other American offshoots of Protestants claim (falsely) that America is the REAL lands from the Bible, and also by New Testament, Jesus kind of downplays the importance of a PLACE (any place) in His talk with a Samaritan woman, so any Christian technically can claim ANYWHERE else as another "Holy Land". Notably, for us it's Kyiv. The place where Rus' was first Christened, down with a myth of Andrew the Disciple visiting the hills it stands on and proclaiming that it would be a place for a great city. That's why russian imperialism keeps trying their 2-3 day march on it, as their entire racial supremacy theory doesn't work without holding Ukrainian capital. Hell, biggest denomination of Christians is Roman Catholic and their Holy Place is Rome, in Italy... And we Orthodox kind of hold Constantinople in similar regard.

  28. Early psychology is fascinating! Freud and his gang started with controversial takes like the one that hysteria is, in fact, NOT woman's womb (hystera) traveling through her body, but a thing purely in the head... and that a woman is frustrated because her husband doesn't satisfy her, and not because of imbalanced humours (hence the "penis normalis dosim repertatur" prescription). This upset a lot of doctors who until very recently put a guy into a nuthouse for suggesting washing hands between dissecting corpses and taking labor, as it didn't comply with their beliefs in humorism and miasmas. Funny that everyone later made a hobby out of "debunking Freud" including Sigmund himself, but Jung, who did drugs with literal Nazis, is somehow considered a more posh, highbrow psychologist.

  29. I never understood logic of these handbag comspiracies: so what if it WAS a bag or a basket instead of a bucket? Did ancient people not... Carry things? Its not like it says Gucci on it lol.

  30. The other thirds are worse but harder to debunk as they have some weirdos saying how they used a loophole to avoid paying taxes to uncle Sam.

  31.  @andreaarchaeology  there's a lot of actual science fiction that fills the wonder without pretending to be reality though. Mass Effect has ancient aliens that shaped technology, and Assassin's Creed has advanced civilization that also did that... both are good especially if you follow the lore.

  33.  @davepx1  It's actually much simpler than that: nationalism of people wanting independence of a colonial empire = good. Nationalism of said colonial empire trying to subjugate other peoples = bad. Westerners associate more closely with the second part, that's how you see Western media almost ALWAYS write about things from the perspective of a colonialist: notice how many BBC and CNN correspondents talk about "great russian culture", and how they were shocked to see internet cafes in Kyiv, as they always seen Ukraine as a tribe of local "Indians" standing in the way of great white muh tradishun of Tolstoyevsky, dedovschina and snokhachestvo.

  34.  @rizkyadiyanto7922  ah yes, people who were persecuted for thousands of years in Europe for being Jewish, suddenly become "Europeans" when trying to move out of the continent where they were put into gas chambers. Brilliant, Jews are indeed "Schrodinger's whites", they're considered whatever makes it easier to attack them at the moment. As a Ukrainian, we kinda see the point, where we "don't deserve help" because we're "too white", and also "don't deserve to be cared about" because we're "not REALLY like white people". ANY excuse for xenophobia.

  39. 25:45 "Caucasus mountains in the STEPPES of ruzzіа"... Does he understand what he said? Steppe plains and mountains are... mutually exclusive things... and also I am not surprised at him claiming that Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, let alone Ichkeria are "гuzz1а"?

  40.  @tommy-er6hh  it's entirely supremacist pseudoscience, right? Kind of like in Europe we had NS-sponsored archeologists trying to find proof that "Jooooooz stole everything from aryan Germans", and to this day there's weirdos who share "Christmas and Easter were STOLEN from GERMANY!" ignoring that conspiracy was started by literally Hitler.

  42. YouTube traps people into doing the thing that works, instead of things they like. Helps if the thing that gives tons of views is easier (like reaction vids) than anything else.

  43. ​ @jamesbael6255  Egyptians didn't "came from somewhere else", Egyptians are literally native people to Egypt. Who lived there since prehistoric times. Your wacky conspiracy theory that bloody Americans are somehow closer to REAL Egyptians than PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY GREW UP IN EGYPT is an old, debunked, racist pseudoscience in the same vein of Mormons claiming US puritans to be "real Israelites".

  44. I think Ramses 2nd aka Ozymandias mummy eas found. He INDEED have high cheekbones and likely large, hooked nose. He also dyed his hair whe chenna, I don't know if the carpet matched the curtaiins tho.

  45. WTH is a "megalith" anyway? I know what's a monolith: made from a single piece of stone instead of multiple stacked together... At this point it seems they are just using the word "MeGaLiTh" to avoid immediately getting laughed at for saying "AnCiEnT aLiEnS."

  46. My first exposure to Kermitology was here on YouTube and I still remember that poor girl so devastated, lamenting "but not your weenie", 🐸 she was never the same again. I don't know how miss Piggy tolerates him if he keeps flashimg the 🥒 to strangers.

  47.  @THE-X-Force  The religion and myth stuff that people see mistakes in wasn't the main goal of the movie, it starts with 9/11 conspiracies, segues into Moon Landing denial and ends with a whole chapter on what I MANY years later learned is "sovereign citizen" crap. It had interviews with people who didn't pay taxes for years and I couldn't for the life of me figure out what Set and Horus being not even similar to Cain with Abel story having to do with tax avoidance.

  49.  @hydra70  Also after Great Pyramid, they didn't even bother to mortal that much, just kept stones uneven. Anything that looks super precise is just stones setting in after so many years. So yeah, reason you can't fit a paper between two blocks on top of each other is GRAVITY, but then you internal stones with gaps wide enough to fit hands, and cameras, in...
