Thanks for your comment!

Thanks for your comment. You’re right I’m not a historian. But like you I found their history absolutely fascinating!! Looking forward to see your RUclips movie on the subject with all the correct facts! Let me know when you have made one!

Thanks so much!

Sure!

Always great time to stargaze in Tenerife! (As long as it’s dark…)

Modern colonialism Plus they killed most of the aboriginals anyway so now the spanish colonisers in canary islands claime to be qboriginals

Lo que tú digas 😡

Probably!

not really. The Spaniards killed the Native Guanches. They were descended from North African peoples, but lived in a neolithic society not dissimilar to some Native Anericans. Now it is Spanish territory with Spanish traditions. So is life.

We wish you all the best. Thanks for you comment!

Thanks so much!

Exciting!

Thanks for your comment! If I’m not mistaken we were quite alone. So I think we did them all.

Quite a lot! But I’ll definitely recommend bringing a telescope if possible.

Totally agree!!

No. Guanches are indigenous people and Vikings were Norse.

@@lauriekline178 100%

No...that is BS. There were Africans before ANY hostile invaders (discoverers).

Their story is so fascinating!!!

Se the dolphines in los cristIanos by kajak. Or watch the dolphine show in aqualand. Walk at the promenade near the water from los cristianos to LAS americas. Its amazing!

All of it!! Hope you had a good time!

@@swedes-abroad it was amazing miss it so much 😂😂

Thanks for your input. I’ll try to remember this next time.

Thanks for your thoughts! Tove is now fully recovered. She had quite a rough journey until she got well. I wish you all the best and hope you get well soon!

Absolutely agree!

Thanks! Some of the photos was taken with my buddies cameras. Not sure exactly what the used but som older cannon camera I think. And I also used my GoPro (!) for a few of them!

Thanks for sharing this! So important. Sometimes the moon is quite amazing to watch as well!

Thanks!

Good luck!

We did not bring hats… maybe they would float away?

There are heated pools in Tenerife, but not in the water park.

Cool! You have great ancestors!

I agree!

But why did that host said they were dark haired & dark e yed with dark sk8n😢😮? The host should have b een an indigenous Guache NOT some White foreigner?

There are different accounts as to the looks of the Guanches. There are som “eye witnesses” that wrote down what they saw a very long time ago. And then we have the analyse of genetics that tell us another story.

Stop lying blond hahaha and they resembled Cro-Magnons sure bud.. Also, you forgot that Europeans had traded with them since before the foundation of Rome. Many Europeans permanently settled on the islands since the late middle ages. Let's not forget the bulk of them was not pale skin with blond hair either so stop lying to yourself. When Espinosa wrote his book it was century later after the invasion of Europeans. And the word rubia (blond) means many different things in old Spanish text. Btw western Europeans didn't have pale skin (white skin people) it was in low frequency in early farmers, but it spread in the bronze age. So light skin that we know in Western Europeans is very recent. Before this, all western Europeans had dark Skin so it would be impossible for Berbers to have light skin because the light skin DNA allele the SLC24A5 was introduced to East Africa from Europe around 5,000 yrs ago and spread with pastoralists from East Africa to others including San people, etc. Berbers are older than 5,000 yrs.

@@zackgalante4899 are you Black?

​@@zackgalante4899Scientists really dont know how old white skin is or where it originated. Although some scientists are claiming it likely came from Neanderthals: More traits associated with your Neanderthal DNA. Its is known hair colour originated from Neanderthals and research shows light skin likely also originated from Neanderthals. Pigmentation genes for light skin in modern Eurasians such as POU2F, BNC2 and MC1R found in modern Eurasians, come from Neandertals and were retained according to climate. Adaptation of human skin color in various populations DNA taken from ancient Neanderthals shows that they also had genes for green, blue eyes, but also olive skin and dark hair and eyes. So white skin in modern humans could be as old as 48 000 years .

This is not a history Chanel. In any case, the story you shared is basically the same as I described in my video.

​@swedes-abroad I think the point being made is much broader, Canarians are sick of being referred to as no longer existing when this is not the case, since we are the direct descendants. The guanche culture lives on in us, much in the same way as any other culture in a contemporary context. Constantly referring to a dead or extinct culture is very offensive, and only serves as validation for further exploitation. I notice alot of foreign perspectives projecting this negative way of describing our situation through the use of poor language. When infact one of the best way to understand how guanches once existed, would be to study the local people. I mean common, this was literally only a few hundred years back, and the last historically recognised guanche clan of Tenerife only disappeared in the late 1800's.

my ancestors left Tenerife and migrated to Nueva Galicia. DNA documentation.

Hi there! Sure! It’s called Mt. de samara. All the best!

I also put the coordinates in a previous comment. All the best!

Hi there! Thanks for your question! Anywhere up against teide will do. As long as you get out of the city lights!

@@swedes-abroad Thank you!! I realise now that the whole mountain was perfect, the view after midnight was hard to believe and to forget! 😊🙏❄️

Wonderful!

Beautiful!

Enjoy!!

Sure is!

Thanks!

Nice!

Wow!

Contrary to what many say the Spaniards never had colonies, but provinces that were given the same treatment as the Spaniards on the mainland...They mixed with the natives...Proof of it is the Dna carried by many islanders...There is a lot of disinformation about Spain and their provinces, NOT COLONIES...England had colonies, and the Dutch, French, Portuguese and others...Spain built the first three universities in the Americas almost 100 years before the first one in the USA, Havard in 1636...(…established by the Spaniards: the University of Santo Domingo (1538) in what is now the Dominican Republic and the University of Michoacán (1539) in Mexico.and in Lima, Perú)... and there were four more before the one in the USA...from 1551 to 1586 in Bolivia, another in Santo Domingo, Colombia, Ecuador, ...The Portuguese did not build any universities until 1912 and it was only one in Paraná...

Cariño disculpa pero desgraciadamente seguimos siendo colonia...y en cuanto a la mezcla de adn....a las niñas, niños, mujeres y hombres guanches eran llevados a la península y los vendían como esclavos. Un saludo desde Tenerife.

@@amparoalvarez9001uh, I'm mixed Yaqui, O’odham, Nahua, Swahili, Basque, Canarian, and Indo-European (including Spanish). I can assure you that the Spaniards had COLONIES, and no, the inhabitants therein were not treated the same as the PENINSULARES. Let alone those who were Brown or Black, always relegated to the bottom of the caste system. Yes, caste system. The Spaniards got into my DNA via rape and colonialism and a sense of racial superiority/privilege, just like the Dutch, English, and French. It's a “white” thing, predominantly. As a “mestizo” or “pardo” I can tell you my European ancestors were savage monsters compared to my non-Indo-European ancestors. Just a fact. Fact.

@@militantlymarginal You are only repeating the lies that Anglosaxons or protestants invented against Spain...True historians are telling a new history...

So beautiful!

😊👍

@@zackgalante4899 OK thanks Dr Adorno.

@@michaelcullen6375 It's all factual and I can easily prove it bud 👍🏼. Blond hair North Africans do not and never existed. Modern-day Berbers are not the same dark skin people that invaded Spain. Today's Iberian peninsula spain portugal has a high concentration of Berber, arab/Jewish DNA. If you see modern-day Berbers from Northern Morocco, Algeria with blond hair it's because of the Barbary slave trade and native Iberian converts that were kicked out of Spain/Portugal by the king and queen. Millions of white European women and men were sold into slavery in North Africa. Places like Morocco have a high European admixture on their mtDNA mother's side due to the recent migration of European women as slaves. Do research

That's not entirely true, during the first colonial invasions, the guanches were described as 14ft tall giants, black in colour and monstrous in appearance. Later, guanches were being described as mixed tanned and light demographics. Even later, descriptions of certain guanche figures were described as light skin/ light hair. From this, one could conclude that the lower ranking members exposed to the sun where tanned, and leaders who did not work the land seemed more fair skin. There hair course were a mix of dark to light, which is typical of North Africa in general. If you want to go further back, blonde hair originates from East Africa.

Thanks!!

Nice! We haven’t been there unfortunately! Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for your comment!

Do you know how many times I had to read your scribble to understand what you were trying to say. Ffs... at least try.

Thanks!

B.S. Spanish were not exterminators...The British were the biggest exterminators everywhere they went they left no one...In America, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, and on and on...The Spanish did not colonized, they created cities, shared their culture, mixed with the people...They mixed with the Guanches...Many in the islands have their dna...The Guanches died of the diseases the Spaniards brought with them... This is the real history: "In the 15th century the Spanish conquered Tenerife along with the other Canary Islands. The Guanches put up a great fight, but one by one the islands fell to the conquistadors. After colonisation the Guanches gradually disappeared. (NOT TRUE) Many died of diseases that were introduced by the arrivals from mainland Europe" Many carry their Dna today...

No nos exterminaron, Nos mezclamos con ellos.

Hi! It sure is! My son was about the same age when the episode was recorded. Have fun!
