@@randolph69 Fucking hell, get off your high horse, mate. He's just happy to see something about a culture you don't see depicted often. Gives a chance to LEARN SOMETHING NEW. If THAT'S what gets you worked up your life must be rainbows and sunshine otherwise.
@@WardancerHB Got to agree man, I also think that Kush and the Nubians are "underrated" since all books and such tend to focus on the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians.
The Aksumites (modern day Ethiopia) were great warriors, who conquered a lot of land. One of the first African civilizations to mint coins and they have their own writing script called Ge'ez. It would be great if you could do a video on them sometime in the future.
Narmer, or Menes, the first pharaoh to unite the upper and lower Kemet (Egypt), was from Southern Africa. Therefore, the FIRST writing was African. The hieroglyphics were African, both the Kemetic and Meroetic. The fact that the Ancient Egyptians were African was common knowledge in antiquity, and documented by Herodotus, the Greek father of history.
As they became Christians they actually finished the destruction of ancient Egyptian religion. By that time the Nubian, Kush, Sudan area were called Ethiopians ( from the greek word to refer to people with burnt face). After that victory the Askumite king took the name King of the Ethiopians that he had conquered and from there we now have the Aksumites called Ethiopians. History
😂look at adis Ababa now like a ghost town with no signs of advancement in civilisation yet they claim they founded every thing including the Egyptians who had open brain surgery eye surgery drilling into solid granite art imagery inside tombs & temples human prosthetic limbs no sub Saharan Africans were ever Egyptians 🤦
I think a good war for you to cover would be Viriathus’s Lusitanian War (the War of Fire), between 155-139 BC. Rome’s pretext was that Lusitanians were used greatly by Carthage in the previous two Punic Wars. Very exciting war - lots of guerrilla warfare *:)*
Please Sir, MORE! Its refreshing to have the more obscure events of history presented in such a clear and engaging manner - detailed enough to give a comprehensive overview without a surfeit of trivia, and inclusive enough make the events relevant. Of course a well researched and constructed script/video and a pleasant sounding presenter make the experience entertaining as well as informative. So, yes additional entries of this sort would be most welcome. The fact that I can not recommend any events in particular highlight the gaps in my knowledge - gaps you are slowly filling in so enjoyably.
I really like the idea of doing a series of forgotten wars of Rome. I would also really like to see more interactions with other civilizations that we rarely hear about even if they are not war related.
8:25 - I like how the Nubian king flexes on the Persians by challenging them to pull a heavy-draw weight bow. Pulling heavy draw-weight bows was seen as an important display of military prowess across the world. For example, the Song Dynasty required first class infantry archers to pull 160 lb bows and first class cavalry archers to pull 120 lb bows. The Tang Dynasty required 168 lbs for first class infantry archers and 90-100 lbs for cavalry archers. Ottoman Turk warbows are believed to range from 60 to 180 lbs (with extreme outliers in the 200s), with ranges of 90 to 160 lbs being more typical. Qing Dynasty bows were typically 80-180 lbs, had imperial strength bows (for training and exams) that maxed out at 240 lbs, and outliers of elite champions shooting bows in the 200s lb range (one elite champion was recorded to have used a 240 lb bow in an archery competition). The heavier Mongol bows were supposed to be around 160 lbs in draw weight. The Liangulu tribes of Africa use powerful bows of over 100+ lb in draw-weight to hunt elephants. Japanese samurai shot warbows of ~80s-160s lbs. English archers of the 15th-16th century were shooting bows of 80-180 lbs (with 100-140 lb being typical) - and very strong/outlier examples of modern English warbow archers such as Mark Stretton and Joe Gibbs are able to shoot bows of up to ~200-210 lbs.
the thing to point out is that the test you mentioned were merely feats of strength, in the sense that the archers were supposed to be able to pull the bow, once. It does not automatically mean that they would be able to repeatedly shoot and aim with that same draw weight
@@neutralfellow9736 A Qing Dynasty record states an elite champion archer won an archery competition with a 240 lb bow. So at least one person was recorded to be able to shoot 200s lb bows repeatedly to win a competition. Joe Gibbs and Mark Stretton are able to shoot their 200s lb bows multiple times as well...maybe not for hours on end with a hundred shots, but at least for one or two dozen shots. The same is probably for those outlier Turkic bows in the 200s lb range. The Tang and Song dynasty exams that required 160-168 lb draw weight bows for foot archers were not tests of strength, because those were actually archery examinations that required hitting multiple targets and accumulating points to classify archers into different tiers.
Fantastic video 👏. There's not allot of coverage on ancient African civilisations outside of Carthage and Egypt so I'd personally love to see more of this type of content 👍
@@zachariahmorris833 You are right that there is a lot of research on the topic. I have read books and enjoyed documentaries on African history. I would still be interested in seeing Invicta's take on it.
The history of Nubia is certainly a fascinating topic that could use some popularization. One of the precursors of serious research in this area, Prof. Kazimierz Michałowski (1901-1981), coined the term "Nubiology", suggesting that it is so rich subject, that it deserves to be treated as its own discipline, as Egyptology is.
Nubia is a fascinating civilisation. They grew alongside ancient Egypt and much of Egypt’s history and culture originates from the Nubia and its ancient cultures. Also the many dynasty’s of Kush, Medjay the elite force and the conquest of Egypt by king Piye and formation of the 25th dynasty. Much of ancient Egypt has strong ties to Nubia and various Pharaohs and important members of society had their origins there!
Thank you for covering this. Kush is frequently mentioned in the Bible. And when you travel further south into what is now Ethiopia and the surroundings, there was a great empire there which is almost completely forgotten to history, but was one of the earliest Christian kingdoms. And it brings tears to my eyes, because while they may not have been conquered by the Romans -they do not get to tell their version of history because they were not writing at that time.
@@admirekashiri9879 How long do they need? I heard they started from the 70s. Also, just recently they discovered underground drainage pipes in Kush. There's more to be discovered.
The Kushite Pharaoh Taharqa is also mentioned in the Bible for saving Jerusalem from the Neo-Assyrian Empire in the 8th century BC, 2 Kings Chapter 19 Verse 9 and Isaiah Chapter 37 Verse 9, and the Ethiopian (Kushite) Eunuch who is mentioned in Acts Chapter 8 Verse 27 was the first gentile to convert to Christianity, and was baptized by Philip the evangelist in 1st century Judea.
More ancient Africa history would be awesome! It's great to be able to ingest these narratives in such a short time as opposed to doing the actual research. Thank you for all your hard work!

@@Byronic19134 West Africa had many complex civilizations like Djenne-Djenno, Wagadou, Mali, and Songhai. They also had an iron industry before contact with the Mediterranean. Some even had some scripts.
This is my ancestors history. But we dont call ourselves Nubians, the outside world calls us that. We call ourselves Janubians. Even to this day that region called Sudan, or South Sudan is what the outside world labels it. But everybody that lives there still say Janubian. Which literally in my language translates to "people of the land of the bow"
Interesting. Now that South Sudan is free, I am wondering if they may rename themselves to Janubia. Is your culture related to Ethopia in anyway? I would love to have a background on how these two countries differ.
Brother Yual, I wonder what your history books says about the establishment of Janubian. Please share. If you could provide books by Janubian authors please do so.
The Ancient empire of Nubia/Kush is a civilization of countless tribes that came together and created an amazing empire of Kush, which tribe are you from exactly? Janubian is a simplified term. Also in Sudan, Sudanese say Janubi in a very racist way, like they are outsiders while it is in fact 'the Arabs themselves' who are outsiders

We all love it and can’t get enough. We love you.
This is an excellent informative video. The explanation of the difference in the upper and lower Nile, and the impact on Egypt and Kush was particularly insightful.
I absolutely LOVE illustrations in video. I can easily see what happening and how thing looks like. Especially beautiful drawings of soldiers and cities! Excellent video as always. I have learned lots of new informations about this overlooked times.
Should've mentioned how early Muslim conquerors of Egypt also tried their luck against Nubia. With expected results. They called them "archers of the eyes" Cause fuckers never missed and shot you in the eyes lol
Keep in mind that at that time, Kush was 700 years past it's prime, and for it to be a formidable opponent against a young vigorous empire that conquered most of Europe and a big chunk of the middle East makes Kush even more impressive
@@Niani23455 Well the peace treaty between Kush & Rome was negotiated on the Greek island of Samos in the Mediterranean - so clearly the Kushite ambassadors were the ones who visited Europe in this case.
@@disapearingboi True. Some Greek historians such as Strabos stated that Kushite king Tahaqa, travelled and built fortifications in Europe as far as Spain. The source is in this book; Strabo (2006). Geography. Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press. p. 7. ISBN 0674992660. Of course, it hasn't been proven yet but it may have been inspired by Kushite voyages there.
Well, just watch the news. The people there are still a bit "ancient" the only things they have nowadays that aren't ancient are automatic machine rifles.
I love seeing videos like this. All too often channels about ancient history are really only ancient Eurasian history with more of an emphasis on Europe. There's a lot of world out there with a lot of history, so it's always good to see less talked about regions get some spotlight. Thanks again and please do continue!
The format is especially helpful. Part of the reason for the focus on Europe is that it is what many history viewers (at least in Europe and the Americas) already know. Tying together a part of European history with the subject matter is a nice way of transitioning "from the better known to the lesser known."
Well that's because nothing of importance has really happened outside of Europe, the USA and Asia. Also africa and other jungle people did not keep records like we did they have oral history which cannot be trusted as fact.

@@afcrotv2282 what books ?? The Christians burned plenty of European books but somehow the knowledge managed to survive. If you had books why have none survived ?? The proof of non-existence lies in the failure to be manifest in reality.
Problem is: Ancient Egypt evolved from Old Kingdom, 1st intermediate, Middle Kingdom, 2nd intermediate, New Kingdom, Late Period, etc. So, a "Growing up" would be hopelessly generic or would be specific to one period, and have to ignore the others.
@@companyman4713 Then stick to the Bronze Age. Egypt may've evolved through different dynastic phases, what with the Hyksos Occupation, but very little changed culturally, artistically, and religiously. I mean for over 2,000 years they used copper and bronze weapons/tools, worshipped cats to the point where cat killing was a death penalty offence, and stuck to the same type of customs here and there. Bottom line: I'm sure it's feasible for Invicta to have a go, if not for at least one specific phase that everybody associates with Egypt.
YES! Please do more of these forgotten wars videos. It's always nice to hear of not-so-well-known events. The Illyrian Revolt is my favorite. On top of that thanks for doing a little summary backstory of the area.
I love happy endings!! Two great powers flexing and fighting then realizing they are better off as friends and both prospering because of it. Augustus was wise.

I would love for you to do more videos on ancient Africa! They are really awesome and very few outlets of media touch on the amazing aspects of the continent
I didn't realize that it was the obligation of the west to depict African history. Isnt that the duty if Africans to tell their own history? It isnt the obligation of Europe to teach Africa its history. But you don't hear Europe bitching do you?
We definitely need a full video on The Kushites, especially the ones who conquered Egypt and started the 25th Dynasty. That's a "forgotten war", that needs to be known.
And the war between the 25th Dynasty and the Neo-Assyrian Empire, the Kushite Pharaoh Taharqa is also mentioned in the Bible because he made an alliance with the Kingdom of Judah during the reign of King Hezekiah, and waged war against the Neo-Assyrian King Sennacherib at the Battle of Eltekeh. 2 Kings Chapter 19 Verse 9 and Isaiah Chapter 37 Verse 9.
@@Billswiftgti Romans could've beaten them in war, Romans WERE war, they just had too many other things going on, similar to the situation with the Germanic peoples.
@@jaiganticpooey3012 yet the war lasted 5 years without an easy clear out victor. The Romans did all they could even burning a Kushite city but the Kushites were persistent attacking with poison arrows, and elephants. They also had cool seige engines like the seige tower as well as warships. The war was not easy considering Kush had some of the world's best cavalry horses. The Assyrian Empire used to buy Kushite horses years back. Eventually, Rome and Kush became allies and Kush even sent its cavalry force to help during the Roman invasion of Israel.
Forgotten Wars is an amazing idea for a series and this is a great episode of it! I love these civs on the periphery of history that are so important but have so few surviving records.
Invicta and Kings & Generals FINALLY talk about Africa but both talk about the same kingdoms :( I'd love to see some of actual raw, 100% Sub-Saharan African history.
The Kingdom of Kush is a Sub-Saharan African civilization, its literally in the same latitude with countries such as Chad, Niger, Mali and Mauritania who are also both Sub-Saharan African countries and the Kingdom of Kush often gets overlooked in mainstream pop culture, barely any average person knows about it, and heck, the Meroitic Script still hasn't been fully deciphered yet, even though its probably the oldest written script ever found in Sub-Sahara Africa, and Kerma which is probably the oldest city ever built in Sub-Sahara Africa and then its Dhar Tichitt.
@@michaelclayton7945 I'm aware it's Sub-Saharan and I'm aware that it doesn't receive as much recognition as other civilizations but culturally it falls within the Nile Valley civilization (As the video pretty much said as well.) I'm referring to civilizations that were relatively cut off from Europe or Asia. So-called history channels seem almost afraid to cover those regions of Africa. I'm one of the few history channels that does unapologetically African history content.
Are you kidding me!? Yes please! I had no idea about that. This was very fascinating and would love to know more about the Roman Expeditions into Africa and the kingdom that helped them. That's some stuff you don't hear about everyday and would truly like to know more about this fascinating historical event
Yup big conspiracy theory’s “eye roll” or perhaps it has something to do with not much written records from their history. Use a little common sense. Have you looked at Chinese history? They only recorded each dynasty after they ended. The Mongols only had the secret history. The Egyptian history has a ton of gaps. How about Northern European history? Nothing really at all until the Romans. Stop making it a race thing because it’s not! Ancient societies used verbal history telling and a lot was lost. They were more concerned of running civilization and not so much of recording it. Sick of the woke victimhood BS.
This makes sense,a DNA study of a Roman Gladiator in a Ludus in Pompeii,archeologists found a body of a African Gladiator ,so with wars you get captives..
The area known as Aswan in Egypt today was historically Nubian territory. Some of this region came under Roman Egypt (likewise in earlier Egyptian/Persia/Ptolemaic conquests) - meaning there were ethnic Nubian cities & towns within Roman Egypt. So African gladiators could also have come from these settlements as citizens of the Empire.
Great video and I would definitely be keen for more African history, not just when it relates to Europeans. It's very easy to fall into a eurocentric mindset and we should all be trying to rectify that and take an interest in other cultures.
@@Totally_Not_Nanael I didn't say we should ignore western history, virtually impossible anyway. Just saying there's a whole world out there with history and cultures that are worth learning about for their own sake, not just how it relates to Europeans. And as for the west shaping the world, that has not always been the case and won't be for very much longer. Power is shifting to China, India, Brazil etc and Nigeria will soon have one of the biggest populations on the planet. A study of history that just focuses on the west is imcomplete and won't give us context to understand a rapidly changing world.
@@Totally_Not_Nanael That's the definition of Eurocentrism. Honestly, Europe beyond the Mediterranean was an isolated backwater for most of its history until the early modern period, and especially during the medieval period. Much of the world's advancements happened in the Middle East, India, North Africa, and China.
The most important statement made in this video was that when the Nubians conquered Egypt, "they were not seen as some occupying force of alien outsiders". Nubians who were 'darker than blue' were not seen as some occupying force of alien outsiders. That statement alone would be worthy of a documentary to find out why they weren't seen as some occupying force of alien outsiders.
The video did state their religion and customs where similar or the same as those of the Egyptians as well as the centuries of trade and communication would familiarize the Egyptians to them.
@@landsknecht8654 you are write,sub Sahara Africa kinda fkd up on that one. They had great history but since they relied on oral records instead of writing, they basically got the short end of the stick when it comes to history. No one could invade sub Sahara Africa until the advent and wide use of guns and canons. Even as vicious as the Arab invasion of north Africa was,they couldn't come down south, when they did they meet strong resistance so they basically stayed put in the desert north. Sub Sahara Africa screwed up by not following the new development in the art of war a mistake they paid dearly for.
@@landsknecht8654 Africa did have many writing systems. The problem was that it was mostly for the elites to write. Other than that they didn't need it.
It’s interesting that some of Rome’s toughest enemies were women. Seriously though, I wish we knew more about Amanirenas, she sounds fascinating. This would make a great movie/series.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. I bought my woman a feather duster for Valentines day last year. Should have bought myself some pairs of underwear to with it for the amount I shat myself.
@@admirekashiri9879 That's good, Kush is literally my favorite ancient civilization that suddenly had been ignored in mainstream pop culture and have been overlooked.
There is a film about this war in production. Universal Studios and Will Packer are producing it. But this was announced back in 2017 not sure when it will be finally released.
Very interesting and extremely informative. The stories of the campaigns in Nubia are indeed forgotten and very few know that they even occurred. Your video is much appreciated and you have a friend in Columbus, Ohio!
I read this a while back and this got me really interested in ancient African history, awesome video, Invicta and now it's time for the mandatory early joke: Last time I was this early, Romans were still Trojans
Unfortunately As a black person who grew up in this nations public school system, our history books involving our people begin with slavery.. then to civil rights and Jim Crow, up till current day. Great to hear more about African history. Keep them coming
@@dominictoretto9645 I don’t think my statement required animosity. But to answer your question we learn about Roman history, Mesopotamian history, Greek history etc.. sure there is room for it
In all fairness, US public schools suck in history. Aside from teaching about some English Kings, the two world wars, they don't teach much about European history either.
I would love to learn more about African history it's a shame most of it has been destroyed and is still being hidden or trying to be pushed to one side African history is history aswell
@@mahmoudelkhalifa8497 Never enough. For instance. We know little about Amanirenas apart from the events surrounding her relation to the Roman empire and the war.
I really recommend "from nothing" history channel, it has a great focus on African history from African perspective you aren't used to. Including vid on ancient Kush as great military power

Same man, Ancient Egypt got me into history as well. One of the first books I read was a book on Ancient Egypt.
These are so good. Bring us more forgotten wars. I wanna know how the bosporian kingdom became Rome's vassal
Right?! You always see it in maps of the Republic and Empire but other than it being apart of Pontus I want to know more about its dealings with Rome
Kings and Generals has a video about the Greco-Bosporan Kingdom!
The Aksumites (modern day Ethiopia) were great warriors, who conquered a lot of land. One of the first African civilizations to mint coins and they have their own writing script called Ge'ez. It would be great if you could do a video on them sometime in the future.
Narmer, or Menes, the first pharaoh to unite the upper and lower Kemet (Egypt), was from Southern Africa. Therefore, the FIRST writing was African. The hieroglyphics were African, both the Kemetic and Meroetic. The fact that the Ancient Egyptians were African was common knowledge in antiquity, and documented by Herodotus, the Greek father of history.
No other civilization has the similarities of culture.
As they became Christians they actually finished the destruction of ancient Egyptian religion. By that time the Nubian, Kush, Sudan area were called Ethiopians ( from the greek word to refer to people with burnt face). After that victory the Askumite king took the name King of the Ethiopians that he had conquered and from there we now have the Aksumites called Ethiopians. History

@@seifuddeenkutuz that's not even remotely true
I think a good war for you to cover would be Viriathus’s Lusitanian War (the War of Fire), between 155-139 BC.
Rome’s pretext was that Lusitanians were used greatly by Carthage in the previous two Punic Wars. Very exciting war - lots of guerrilla warfare *:)*
Noted!
Celtiberia/Spain has been rife with Guerilla Warfare for ages.
@@Anaris10 Viriathus is Portuguese*
@@Yugo2725 WRONG

Please Sir, MORE! Its refreshing to have the more obscure events of history presented in such a clear and engaging manner - detailed enough to give a comprehensive overview without a surfeit of trivia, and inclusive enough make the events relevant. Of course a well researched and constructed script/video and a pleasant sounding presenter make the experience entertaining as well as informative.
So, yes additional entries of this sort would be most welcome. The fact that I can not recommend any events in particular highlight the gaps in my knowledge - gaps you are slowly filling in so enjoyably.
I really like the idea of doing a series of forgotten wars of Rome. I would also really like to see more interactions with other civilizations that we rarely hear about even if they are not war related.
If they were forgotten,
who would remember ?? :)
So basically, Rome avoided a forever war…
@Andy Alvarez Egypt was weak kingdom at the time, when Kush was in the horizon.
Rome was smart enough not to have a disaster like Afghanistan.

@@kertagin1 Yeah but for themselves and more than anywhere else in the empire.
8:25 - I like how the Nubian king flexes on the Persians by challenging them to pull a heavy-draw weight bow. Pulling heavy draw-weight bows was seen as an important display of military prowess across the world. For example, the Song Dynasty required first class infantry archers to pull 160 lb bows and first class cavalry archers to pull 120 lb bows. The Tang Dynasty required 168 lbs for first class infantry archers and 90-100 lbs for cavalry archers. Ottoman Turk warbows are believed to range from 60 to 180 lbs (with extreme outliers in the 200s), with ranges of 90 to 160 lbs being more typical. Qing Dynasty bows were typically 80-180 lbs, had imperial strength bows (for training and exams) that maxed out at 240 lbs, and outliers of elite champions shooting bows in the 200s lb range (one elite champion was recorded to have used a 240 lb bow in an archery competition). The heavier Mongol bows were supposed to be around 160 lbs in draw weight. The Liangulu tribes of Africa use powerful bows of over 100+ lb in draw-weight to hunt elephants. Japanese samurai shot warbows of ~80s-160s lbs. English archers of the 15th-16th century were shooting bows of 80-180 lbs (with 100-140 lb being typical) - and very strong/outlier examples of modern English warbow archers such as Mark Stretton and Joe Gibbs are able to shoot bows of up to ~200-210 lbs.
You need to be REALLY strong for any of those bows, old bowmen typically were really strong and often tall men so it's not even a minor challenge.
There's also Ulysses' bow.
English and Welsh.
the thing to point out is that the test you mentioned were merely feats of strength, in the sense that the archers were supposed to be able to pull the bow, once. It does not automatically mean that they would be able to repeatedly shoot and aim with that same draw weight
@@neutralfellow9736 A Qing Dynasty record states an elite champion archer won an archery competition with a 240 lb bow. So at least one person was recorded to be able to shoot 200s lb bows repeatedly to win a competition. Joe Gibbs and Mark Stretton are able to shoot their 200s lb bows multiple times as well...maybe not for hours on end with a hundred shots, but at least for one or two dozen shots. The same is probably for those outlier Turkic bows in the 200s lb range. The Tang and Song dynasty exams that required 160-168 lb draw weight bows for foot archers were not tests of strength, because those were actually archery examinations that required hitting multiple targets and accumulating points to classify archers into different tiers.
These ancient history documentaries are my go-to for learning about the past. Can't wait for the next one!
Fantastic video 👏. There's not allot of coverage on ancient African civilisations outside of Carthage and Egypt so I'd personally love to see more of this type of content 👍

The history of Nubia is certainly a fascinating topic that could use some popularization.
One of the precursors of serious research in this area, Prof. Kazimierz Michałowski (1901-1981), coined the term "Nubiology", suggesting that it is so rich subject, that it deserves to be treated as its own discipline, as Egyptology is.
Nubia is a fascinating civilisation. They grew alongside ancient Egypt and much of Egypt’s history and culture originates from the Nubia and its ancient cultures. Also the many dynasty’s of Kush, Medjay the elite force and the conquest of Egypt by king Piye and formation of the 25th dynasty. Much of ancient Egypt has strong ties to Nubia and various Pharaohs and important members of society had their origins there!

Thank you for covering this. Kush is frequently mentioned in the Bible. And when you travel further south into what is now Ethiopia and the surroundings, there was a great empire there which is almost completely forgotten to history, but was one of the earliest Christian kingdoms. And it brings tears to my eyes, because while they may not have been conquered by the Romans -they do not get to tell their version of history because they were not writing at that time.

The Kushite Pharaoh Taharqa is also mentioned in the Bible for saving Jerusalem from the Neo-Assyrian Empire in the 8th century BC, 2 Kings Chapter 19 Verse 9 and Isaiah Chapter 37 Verse 9, and the Ethiopian (Kushite) Eunuch who is mentioned in Acts Chapter 8 Verse 27 was the first gentile to convert to Christianity, and was baptized by Philip the evangelist in 1st century Judea.
More ancient Africa history would be awesome! It's great to be able to ingest these narratives in such a short time as opposed to doing the actual research.

Love it, we need more documentaries about lesser known events.
The history of the entire African continent seems to be have forgotten tbh, I'm glad you're bring this interesting information to light.
Not forgotten just underrated or just ignored.
That's because there aren't surviving written records of anything.
@@OhSanjiBoi
Nobody even knows what the hell the history is for most of it bcuz all our history comes from surviving accounts of the Mediterranean cultures and only the north of Africa was even known much about.
Only Indian merchants even have accounts of trading with eastern costal African cities but the west coast of Africa was not civilized or anything of reknown.
@@Byronic19134 West Africa had many complex civilizations like Djenne-Djenno, Wagadou, Mali, and Songhai. They also had an iron industry before contact with the Mediterranean. Some even had some scripts.
Not forgotten just not explored as much.
This is my ancestors history. But we dont call ourselves Nubians, the outside world calls us that. We call ourselves Janubians. Even to this day that region called Sudan, or South Sudan is what the outside world labels it. But everybody that lives there still say Janubian. Which literally in my language translates to "people of the land of the bow"
Thaanks for the information 🙏
Interesting. Now that South Sudan is free, I am wondering if they may rename themselves to Janubia. Is your culture related to Ethopia in anyway? I would love to have a background on how these two countries differ.
Brother Yual, I wonder what your history books says about the establishment of Janubian. Please share. If you could provide books by Janubian authors please do so.
The Ancient empire of Nubia/Kush is a civilization of countless tribes that came together and created an amazing empire of Kush, which tribe are you from exactly? Janubian is a simplified term. Also in Sudan, Sudanese say Janubi in a very racist way, like they are outsiders while it is in fact 'the Arabs themselves' who are outsiders
Cool man. Thanks.

It was real. Physically and Metaphorically. Aldmeris was the Supercontinent from which all the current ones came from. Lorkhan and his Wanderers "shattered that land into many" and we know that "much of the land sank beneath new oceans" and all that...
So it did exist, just not entirely the way that many Altmer describe it. Common mistake

Keep in mind that at that time, Kush was 700 years past it's prime, and for it to be a formidable opponent against a young vigorous empire that conquered most of Europe and a big chunk of the middle East makes Kush even more impressive

The format is especially helpful. Part of the reason for the focus on Europe is that it is what many history viewers (at least in Europe and the Americas) already know.

Yesss, love seeing videos on ancient African history. Fascinating stuff.
I really enjoy the forgotten bits of history like this.
What other forgotten wars should we cover? Here is a list of what we have so far:
The Great Illyrian Revolt - ruclips.net/video/vbvNk-K-KYU/видео.html
The Roman Invasion of Arabia - ruclips.net/video/Yz5ocjR-GXo/видео.html
Alexander's Invasion of Afghanistan - ruclips.net/video/WIlR07P69tc/видео.html
Dacian wars
The invasion of the area which is now Morocco and Algeria, I haven't seen it covered ever.
What about the Viking invasion of Anglo-Saxon England? Not exactly forgotten, but still a great topic to cover.
The War’s of the Republik, we know much about the big one‘s like the punic or the macendoniens, but not how they concured the rest of spain or Illyriens
the Arabian invasion video was brilliant. Really brought light to an otherwise obscure point of history. Looking forward to seeing whether and to what extent Nubia got schooled!
As an Egyptian id like to learn more African history that isn't just Egypt, this was really cool thanks

I would still love to see a How They Did It: Growing Up Ancient Egypt.
Problem is: Ancient Egypt evolved from Old Kingdom, 1st intermediate, Middle Kingdom, 2nd intermediate, New Kingdom, Late Period, etc. So, a "Growing up" would be hopelessly generic or would be specific to one period, and have to ignore the others.
@@companyman4713 Then stick to the Bronze Age. Egypt may've evolved through different dynastic phases, what with the Hyksos Occupation, but very little changed culturally, artistically, and religiously. I mean for over 2,000 years they used copper and bronze weapons/tools, worshipped cats to the point where cat killing was a death penalty offence, and stuck to the same type of customs here and there. Bottom line: I'm sure it's feasible for Invicta to have a go, if not for at least one specific phase that everybody associates with Egypt.

Great to see more about African history which has clearly been hidden or neglected by our current Eurocentric view of history.
Yup big conspiracy theory’s “eye roll” or perhaps it has something to do with not much written records from their history. Use a little common sense. Have you looked at Chinese history? They only recorded each dynasty after they ended. The Mongols only had the secret history. The Egyptian history has a ton of gaps. How about Northern European history? Nothing really at all until the Romans. Stop making it a race thing because it’s not! Ancient societies used verbal history telling and a lot was lost. They were more concerned of running civilization and not so much of recording it. Sick of the woke victimhood BS.
This makes sense,a DNA study of a Roman Gladiator in a Ludus in Pompeii,archeologists found a body of a African Gladiator ,so with wars you get captives..
The area known as Aswan in Egypt today was historically Nubian territory. Some of this region came under Roman Egypt (likewise in earlier Egyptian/Persia/Ptolemaic conquests) - meaning there were ethnic Nubian cities & towns within Roman Egypt. So African gladiators could also have come from these settlements as citizens of the Empire.
and Russell Crowe's buddy was Nubian gladiator slave.

@@Totally_Not_Nanael I didn't say we should ignore western history, virtually impossible anyway. Just saying there's a whole world out there with history and cultures that are worth learning about for their own sake, not just how it relates to Europeans. And as for the west shaping the world, that has not always been the case and won't be for very much longer. Power is shifting to China, India, Brazil etc and Nigeria will soon have one of the biggest populations on the planet. A study of history that just focuses on the west is imcomplete and won't give us context to understand a rapidly changing world.
@@Totally_Not_Nanael That's the definition of Eurocentrism. Honestly, Europe beyond the Mediterranean was an isolated backwater for most of its history until the early modern period, and especially during the medieval period. Much of the world's advancements happened in the Middle East, India, North Africa, and China.
Complaints of eurocentrism is simply modern anti-white racism or white guilt. Take your pick.
@@StaalBurgher0 I don't understand why wanting to learn about the history of other cultures is racist against white people. Would you care to explain?
The most important statement made in this video was that when the Nubians conquered Egypt, "they were not seen as some occupying force of alien outsiders". Nubians who were 'darker than blue' were not seen as some occupying force of alien outsiders. That statement alone would be worthy of a documentary to find out why they weren't seen as some occupying force of alien outsiders.
The video did state their religion and customs where similar or the same as those of the Egyptians as well as the centuries of trade and communication would familiarize the Egyptians to them.
Because nubians(kushites) and kemites(ancient egyptians before -525 B.C) we're both black african civilizaiton like it or not.
@@supahotjoe6493 Calm down brother, that is exactly my point. This is why I repeated that they were not seen as an occupying alien force.
Great to hear about Roman conflicts within areas that are not often discussed. I honestly wasn’t even aware they went beyond Egypt
That was badass, would love more of this!
Africa in antiquity is so rarely covered beyond Egypt and Carthage, great video 💪
The problem is Sub-sahara Africa has a lack of writing, literature and information compared to lets say China, Europe, Japan, and Persia.
@@landsknecht8654 Anthropoligical findings > Ancient writing. Historians lied all the time.
@@jjsmithlago1234 What?
@@landsknecht8654 you are write,sub Sahara Africa kinda fkd up on that one. They had great history but since they relied on oral records instead of writing, they basically got the short end of the stick when it comes to history. No one could invade sub Sahara Africa until the advent and wide use of guns and canons. Even as vicious as the Arab invasion of north Africa was,they couldn't come down south, when they did they meet strong resistance so they basically stayed put in the desert north. Sub Sahara Africa screwed up by not following the new development in the art of war a mistake they paid dearly for.
@@landsknecht8654 Africa did have many writing systems. The problem was that it was mostly for the elites to write. Other than that they didn't need it.
Yes, I really liked this history story. Please provide more documentaries on African history.
It’s interesting that some of Rome’s toughest enemies were women. Seriously though, I wish we knew more about Amanirenas, she sounds fascinating. This would make a great movie/series.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. I bought my woman a feather duster for Valentines day last year. Should have bought myself some pairs of underwear to with it for the amount I shat myself.
Universal Studios and Will Packer Productions are making a film about her and this war.
A movie about this war is coming out starring Michael B. Jordan and directed by the Black Panther director.
@@whayes8084 it isn't actually ots Universal and Will Packer that are producing it.
@@admirekashiri9879 That's good, Kush is literally my favorite ancient civilization that suddenly had been ignored in mainstream pop culture and have been overlooked.
these stories would make very good movies
There is a film about this war in production. Universal Studios and Will Packer are producing it. But this was announced back in 2017 not sure when it will be finally released.
@@admirekashiri9879 I'm very excited about this, finally, something for a change.
Awesome! I always wanted to hear more about the parts of history that are just left out of what is being taught in class and even university.
Great video! A units of history video with Nubian archers could be interesting
Please make a series on the early southern african kingdoms and history like Zulus, Ndebeles etc...thanks
Thank you very much for helping us know the best way for me to get the best out of the two teach our people to our history.
I'd love to see more videos about lesser-known battles.
Absolutely, make more videos of ancient Africa!
Very interesting and extremely informative. The stories of the campaigns in Nubia are indeed forgotten and very few know that they even occurred. Your video is much appreciated and you have a friend in Columbus, Ohio!
I read this a while back and this got me really interested in ancient African history, awesome video, Invicta and now it's time for the mandatory early joke:
Last time I was this early, Romans were still Trojans
Afrika doesn't have "history" only poverty, civil wars, overpopulation, hunger, etc. etc.
Greetings from Lyon, France 😚
I really recommend "from nothing" history channel, it has a great focus on African history from African perspective you aren't used to.
@@beremuts1171 Et tous ça grâce au empire colonial.
@@beremuts1171 french "people" once again demnostrating why nobody in europe, or the world likes them
@@johnrambo5795 As an austrian waiter i can only say i second this they just don´t knw what a damn tip is
I love how much background information you always give!
Unfortunately As a black person who grew up in this nations public school system, our history books involving our people begin with slavery.. then to civil rights and Jim Crow, up till current day. Great to hear more about African history. Keep them coming
Why would they teach you the history of sudan in your country? They don’t teach us about yours either. Who has time to study 200 countries history
That's because the people blacks vote for like to keep yall in victimhood...makes you weak

@@dominictoretto9645 I don’t think my statement required animosity. But to answer your question we learn about Roman history, Mesopotamian history, Greek history etc.. sure there is room for it
In all fairness, US public schools suck in history. Aside from teaching about some English Kings, the two world wars, they don't teach much about European history either.
I would love to learn more about African history it's a shame most of it has been destroyed and is still being hidden or trying to be pushed to one side African history is history aswell
Keep the Ancient Africa vids going! Keen to learn more about this vast continent
This deserved a movie/series!
Roman vs Real Nubians >>>>> False Black Julius Caesar
Will Packer Productions and Universal Studios are making the film actually. But the announcement was made a few years ago.
When you want territory for your empire but you gain an ally instead.
Maybe the real empire was the friends they met along the way.
Thank you for covering this topic! Yes, please cover more African Ancient Civilizations! 👍👏
POV: You are the kingdom of Kush looking to the north.
Egypt
Assyria
Egypt again
Persia
Greeks
Romans
Muslims..................aaand you are gone.
Insert "tha f*** is going on over there?" meme.
Dw we're still here :)
Amanirenas seems pretty badass, a shame we know so little about Kush.
I have a book on african empires and kushites were badass.
We know a fair bit. Check out the Oxford handbook on Ancient Nubia
@@mahmoudelkhalifa8497 Never enough. For instance. We know little about Amanirenas apart from the events surrounding her relation to the Roman empire and the war.
Really interesting. As a person staying in Africa it’s great to see that history of the continent was intertwined with Roman history
I really recommend "from nothing" history channel, it has a great focus on African history from African perspective you aren't used to. Including vid on ancient Kush as great military power
From Nothing and Invicta should make a collab
Would be cool to see African History written from said Africans point of view
@@thalmoragent9344 Controversial, yet very interesting work of Sheikh Anta Diop about Egypt people and their blackness.
@@axelbaal6093
Ah, thanks for the info... why's it controversial? Race debate, I take it?
From nothing is great looking forward to seeing his channel grow
Great video! Great to learn something about my countries ancient past.
That was really good Bro. Yes please make some more
as someone who is partially nubian and a fan of your content, it means a lot to see you cover this subject! great video!
