The papyri finds at the Red Sea coast have changed all that. Then are mainly from the Khufu, and Khafre era so much older. See the book of prof. Tallet: the red sea scrolls. Reveals the stunning finds and results of translation.>> <<@russelneilv1361 says : They could have had smaller brains back then..>> <<@MenkaurePilusa says : The way he pronounces their African names like they're European ones makes this video so entertaining.>> <<@drpepperr says : Hooray for the Sun God He sure is a fun God RA RA RA>> <<@JustMe-no8el says : I love that you use their commissioned depictions when referencing them>> <<@Gareth-y6h says : 4:33 that's not the great pyramid>> <<@RaimoKangasniemi says : One thing with the huge pyramids and the accompanying temple complexes of the 4th dynasty is that you need a lot to build them. Khufu was still building his on the 28th year of his reign. No matter how much resources you had otherwise, you could never trust you would have a quarter of a century to finish your building program. So simple fact of time could partly explain the smaller pyramids of the 5th and the 6th dynasties. You needed something that could be finished in 10-15 years to have better chance of getting it finished.>> <<@jordenpenitch1532 says : Repeat lines around 9:40>> <<@IronJeff54321 says : It wasn’t built for his final resting place>> <<@louielyons9365 says : Can you skip forward a bit and do the 25th dynasty soon please>> <<@Bintangwarrior says : Cool story bro…..shame none of it is backed by factual evidence.>> <<@TheBigAramakiStan says : One Piece brought me here>> <<@briandoss9232 says : Man. So much focus on where to stick you when you die.>> <<@carveraugustus3840 says : Oh excellent the Sun temples are very interesting I'm glad your taking some time to explore them>> <<@fratercontenduntocculta8161 says : In terms of sheer mystery, Ancient Egypt will always fascinate me. Even more so, that we are STILL learning about them thousands of years later!>> <<@AML11194 says : Minutes 9 through 10 is just a repeat of what was already said>> <<@syednizamuddin1461 says : Wow the voice of presenter is absolute stunning>> <<@syednizamuddin1461 says : Wow...the voice of pre>> <<@terryburrell2783 says : The pyramids of Giza were not tombs! Pharoahs were buried in the Valley of the Kings! Pyramids have been proven to be sources of energy!>> <<@danielmartinez9933 says : Make an episode about Vicente Guerrero! He abolished slavery in Mexico.>> <<@adrianokury says : Ptolemaic tradition most certainly had reasons to highlight ruptures in the perceived dynastic lines by labeling them as dynasties. Many of them elude us. If Userkaf was a direct descendant of a 4th dynasty king, then why inaugurate a whole new dynasty starting with him?>> <<@Icini says : Editing mistake 10:00>> <<@noizeemama3697 says : This was so cool. I watch and read everything I can on Egypt's golden age. You managed to come up with ones I didn't know about. :)>> <<@petra9391 says : Nice video !! Very engaging from beginning to end. You are late to the party = Promo_SM !!!>> <<@ziadnagah7938 says : Would you please make an episode about Jesus Christ ?>> <<@Hulivilivoo says : I swear every video i watch from simon it gets louder every time>> <<@henriroggeman7267 says : Thanks for telling us the "mastaba" thing twice , Fact Boy🙂>> <<@matthewlawlis2421 says : I studied Egyptology in grad school>> <<@bensmith5288 says : Your voice has gone ridiculous>> <<@thomassheaves3526 says : Your videos are amazing. It’s a daily watch at work for me. Leaning and loving it. Keep the historical stuff coming 🤘>> <<@QalOrt says : Where's the video for the Second Dynasty?>> <<@nazlsenay7312 says : ..>> <<@atheistmom3591 says : Oooh… how about doing a script on The Garden of Aten. (Eden / Akhenaten)>> <<@nicoleminalsahra1170 says : The Pyramid of Unas is spectacular on the inside. It truly is. The Pyramid Text looks like it was etched yesterday, and most amazing is the effect you get when the lights are turned off and a light is shone across the face of the texts. There are designs and artworks BEHIND the text that were designed only to be illuminated by certain light angles. Its a bit unfair to say Unas went out with a whimper when you see inside that pyramid!! No where else is script found within an actual pyramid. And geographically, the swapping between, Abu Sir and Saqqara is not that much of a mystery. Its not that far. None of the sites at that point in time had ever been officially abandoned. Giza, Abu Sir, Saqqara and Dahshur are all within visual range of each other. Its still impressive today to stand at the Red Pyramid (Dahshur) and gaze back north at all the pyramids (and lumps of what were pyramids not built so well!) that scatter the horizon. I imagine it would have been stunning in their ‘hey-days’. 😊>> <<@lindsyfish6704 says : HOORAY!!! I've been waiting for the Fifth Dynasty!!>> <<@edwardanderson1053 says : You do know that a mummy has never been found in a pyramid, facts.>> <<@leahrockstheuke says : Excellent outfit in the beginning of the vid>> <<@anonymousrex5207 says : These Pharoahs were clearly trying to compensate for something with all these grand buildings.>> <<@questprotector says : shepseskare--shakespeare? :)>> <<@cgt3704 says : Stephen the Great: The Champion of Christ>> <<@michaelr3583 says : Fascinating! We would know more about Punt if archaeologists gave a 10th as much about excavating ethiopia somalia and kenya the way they do egypt>> <<@charliecubillas4397 says : Hi, love your work - noticed an editing error around the 10 min mark. I see it between 9:45 and 10:05, it seems like 2 takes of the same dialgue.>> <<@zepherreload says : Don't you think it all sounds like the Egyptians build these pyramids the someone came along and showed them how to build the 3 mega pyramids, and after they was gone rhey couldn't do it again lol..>> <<@russellfitzpatrick503 says : The best soap opera in history - The Pharaos (season 5)>> <<@ArakDBlade says : Pharaoh: Ahhh...thanks for the coffee. ...blegh! x_x>> <<@j.a.weishaupt1748 says : 9:52 am I the only one who hears the exact same sentence twice?>> <<@EmilyJelassi says : Very interesting video! Did you skip the 2nd Dynasty or did I miss that video? Excellent job, as usual, Simon and team! 😊💯👏🏻>> <<@knightofhistory says : I love these videos. I've been a massive fan for years! So much so that I actually made my own channel (it focuses on History as well) thank you for the inspiration!>>
