The second image, she's beautiful. The women with the pretty hairdo and jewelry. Such a beauty.
If there are 900, I would certainly like to see more represented! I love these! They are probably the closest thing we will ever have of actual ancient photographs of people who are often the ancestors of many thousands of descendants today. Absolute treasures.
These people were strikingly beautiful! Excellent work.
Les portraits du Fayoum sont terriblement fascinants ! Plus de distance temporelle ni culturelle : ces hommes, ces femmes sont nos frères, nos sœurs...peintres exceptionnels d'humanité et de tendre réalisme !
Can’t wait to see the video on the Mayans!!
Yes, I'm currently working on it 🙂
Crazy! They never would have thought about 2000 years from when they were alive people are able to see what they really looked at
Actually that was probably a big part of their original purpose.
wow, I always looked forward to seeing Fayum's faces here, thank you so much 🙏 they are beautiful
Genial actualización historica
IMPRESIONANTE LA CONSERVACION DE ESTOS RETRATOS¡¡ LA MANERA DE HACERLOS ES INCREIBLE¡¡ GRACIAS POR REVIVIRLOS PARA CONOCER COMO ERAN LAS PERSONAS DE ESA EPOCA¡¡
EXCELENTE COMO SIEMPRE¡¡
Muchas gracias!
Very interesting. They were all so young. People didn’t expect to live longer than 35 in those days. Our longer lives would be amazing to them
Indeed, there were no real doctors or medicine, hospitals, a simple infection or a flu could be fatal. We take medicine for granted today, you just go to the pharmacy and buy them , but back then, even 100 years ago there were nothing but herbs or magic spells from quacks.
I love very much those fayum portraits, I know many but most of them, were painted when they were young, like you have paintings in your living-room, not at the time of their death. Good job 👍
No I know a few people back then who lived to be 98 years old his name was Ertuğrul Ghazi he was a famous Turkish warrior and he lived a very good life and his friend named Turgut lived to be 109 years old and they lived in the 13 century
35? Don’t think so. That might be an average life expectancy at the time due to high infant and mother mortality but ancient Egyptians living in to their 60’s, 70’s and 80’s are certainly not unheard of. ✌️💕🌻
I love your channel so much!🙌❤🎭
Thank you so much!
Man love your channel amazing as always, definitely prefer the ancient world ones😮!!!
Saving for later.
As always...masterful! 😃👍
Thanks again!
Interesting tradition. You really brought the portraits to life.
I always look forward to your content! Many thanks for your work, which has brought these ancient and forgotten people to life. I appreciate that, the more I see, the more I realize the images aren't too different from modern people, styles, standards of beauty, etc.
Many thanks!
I'm waiting for you to work on William The Silent's faces and story😊😊😊
Thank you for what you do 🙂

Mr. Panagiotis Constantinou, I want to honor you for your huge job on making your great channel ❤! I don't expect that that channel is likely changed to Real Faces channel as better. No problem 😊👍! This is about the Fayum mummy is truly wonderful interest, I can admit that as I can not ignore that. By the way, please make next about (Ukrainian) Hetmans of the Zaporizhian Host or Cossaks Hetmanate as possible ,thanks. Happy Thanksgiving day to you!!!
Thank you! 😃
Please do the mysterious Frankish Merovingians kings. Like those 3rd cent Egyptians most of them died in their 20s (murdered?).
Wow that's brilliant!! It's fascinating because looking at these I remember some of your past videos about the Hellenistic religious period and other portraits which I think were a similar style. And before the writing on this said anything about the life expectancy at the time, I was thinking that these people, if those were at all accurate depictions of the individuals, were pretty young when they died, also because you mentioned children being among the mummified and in the portraits.
👍❤️🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
No processed foods and no pollution and toxins in their environment really made beautiful and handsome people back then.
But most of them still died young. Some of them are even kids.
Could you do Mughal emperors Thanks
All "Mediterranean" looking people. Just like we would see today. There's Greeks, Romans, Levants, Egyptians, and Western North Africans.
The Sahara (Egypt, Libya, small slice of Chad, small slice of Niger, Tunisia, most of Algeria, small part of Mali, small part of Mauritania, Western Sahara, and Morocco) were originally inhabited by Middle Eastern Peoples being similar to their Asiatic (as in West Asia and Central Asia not East Asia) Relatives.
@@BumblebeeTuna8 I agree. The Mediterranean coast of N. Africa from Egypt to Mauritania are mostly the same people. But there's also influence from other regions. Especially the Sahara Desert.
@@niccoarcadia4179 the Sahara itself was inhabited by these Mediterranean African Peoples while the Sahel Desert to the South (Sudan, most of Chad, most of Niger, most of Mali, and much of Mauritania) was originally inhabited by Subsaharan Black Peoples like the Beja, Nubians, and Others. Both Sides influenced each other especially the Nubians and Cushites who were heavily influenced by Egyptians. What I also noticed is that the Egyptians and Coastal Berbers are Sedentary meaning that they've built permanent Settlements while the further you go into the Sahara the more Nomadic the Berbers are such as the Tuaregs who seem to be almost entirely Nomadic living in Tents as they're constantly on the move.
A Greek faces
If you go to Alexandria today you’ll see some Egyptians look 100% greek, distinct from the rest of the society. It’s so interesting to think about how the Greeks influenced egypt
fayum portraits belong to
native Egyptians
They look exactly like the Egyptians nowadays
AlsoThe Egyptians are Mediterranean like greeks , Italians and Levantines ... Mediterranean peoples have similarities in appearance
Also the recent analysis of the skulls of the mummies reveal the same physical anthropology as that of the native Egyptians of the pharaonic period
"The dental morphology of the roman period fayoum mummies was compared with that of earlier Egyptian population, and wad found to be much more closely akin to that of ancient Egyptians than to greeks or other European population." Joel Irish
Libyan oasis its not egyptian
@@Mauri7782 what that ??????
There's no amount of facts that can ever persuade or inform an Afrocentric.
can you please do one for khmer empire statues?
Urgent Please!! Can you do a real face of the Punic Carthaginians of Tunisia, especially Hannibal Barca, his Father, and Brothers as they started Black washing them. (There are coins about them).
Also, The Capsians (Proto-Mediterranean’s/Paleo-Berbers) if possible (They lived during the Mesolithic/Neolithic periods and they are the ancestors of the Berbers).
Berbers (they still exist, especially in Northern Morocco and Northern Algeria).
Moors/Moriscos (Arabo-Berber-Iberians/Andalusian Refugees). I believe there are paintings about them, but their descendants still live in Tunisia, Morocco, and Algeria (whole villages, towns and even cities just for them/Check Testour City for Tunisia). Unfortunately, they have been subject to black washing for years now from crazy Afrocentric.
Numidian Kings and Cavalry/Knights (there are coins about them). They are Tunisians/Eastern Algerians/Western Libyans.
Libyans in ancient time (North Africa west of Egypt until the Atlantic Ocean including the Canary Islands/The Greek name for North Africa West of Egypt). There are famous Egyptian drawing depicting them. Check Tomb of Seti I, Valley of the Kings.
The Vandals of Tunisia. Not sure about any drawings or coins about them but they are Germanic Scandinavians in origins (Probably any Current blonde or Ginger Tunisians are the most likely descendants of them).
One side note: Africa (Historically) is the ancient name given by the Romans to Tunisia, Eastern Algeria, and Western Libya with the same population from antiquity till now (more or less). Just few centuries back that the Name Africa has been applied to the rest of the continent.
Nothing against black people but we feel helpless against this madness and culture appropriation.
Tunisians and their heritage need your support against this crazy and mad people. Thank you.
I saw that they made a black Hanibal and Juba 2, the Berber king who married the daughter of Cleopatra 7 is also hijacked by the Afrocentrists.
Il faut demander au ministère de la culture et du tourisme d'intervenir pour préserver le patrimoine et l'histoire de la tunisie et de tout le bassin méditerranéen. Il y a même des vidéo où ils prétendent que les étrusques étaient noirs.
Cette vidéo est afro-centriste si tu lis le texte tu vois qu'il dit que ce n'était pas de vrais égyptiens mais des romains et des grèques. Cela sous entends que les vrais egyptiens étaient noirs et ont été remplacés par des romains, des grècques et des arabes.
Correction these were from the roman Egypt era not ancient Egypt.
The Roman era is still ancient Egypt.
They look extremely like modern Greeks
Oh look i can't believe they look Mediterranean and not subsaharen 😅
The ancient ethnic Egyptians
did not wear such hairstyles. They are very similar to the Spaniards and Etruscans.
These Egyptians are hardly ancient. The residents of the Fayum _(a Greek colonial state)_ lived closer to our time than the construction of the pyramids. It's also worth noting the artistic styles represented here are usually classified as Greco Roman. The individuals in those graves were descendants of Ptolemaic generals and all had Greek and Latin names.
This video is Afro-centrist if you read the text you see that it says that they were not real Egyptians but Romans and Greeks. This implies that the real Egyptians were black and were replaced by Romans, Greeks and Arabs.
The video does not suggest that Egyptians are exclusively black. Egyptians are of mixed heritage, though typically referred to as being Hamitic. There are many people of sub-Saharan African origin represented. Black Nubians to the south were closely tied to Egypt (economically, religiously, etc.) for centuries and even once ruled as Pharaohs. The Greek Ptolemaians came to power in 305 BC. They were the last dynasty of ancient Egypt. However, Greeks continued to be a large minority in upper Egypt well through the early 1960s.
THIS AFTER INVADERS!!! THE GREEKS BY THAT TIME KEMET WAS 6-8,000 YEARS OLD

Egypt is located in northeastern Africa. A large portion of it is located in Asia. Egypt is an African-Asian country. It is a country in the Middle East. Most of its people live in northern Egypt, specifically in the Delta. All this will tell you that we were and still are closer to the Mediterranean and the Levant. Well, the Egyptians and Greeks were similar to each other. Look for the statue of the seated scribe and the statue of Rahotep and his wife, both made before the pyramids were built. Look for statues of Ramesses II, Khafre, Nefertiti, Horemheb, and other statues. Search for the mummy of Ramesses II, Yuya, Tuya, Teti, Tuthmosis IV, etc. Scientists examined Tutankhamun's DNA and found that 70% of men in Britain, 60% of men in France and 40% of Spanish men shared the same DNA, so Egypt was closer to Europe than you might think. . Some Africans and Berbers have immigrated to Egypt in the last 500 years, so some current Egyptians are less white than the ancient Egyptians. And yes, the Cretan civilization (Minoan civilization) used to color men red and women white, just as the Egyptians did, and this civilization had a great relationship with Egypt. Type (pictures of the Minoan civilization) in Google, which is the ancient civilization of Crete. Look for Fayoum Portraits, which are pictures of ancient Egyptians in central Egypt.
Your never mention DNA résult of momies.
You are not Egyptian, and never were.
It doesn't really show any diversity, at all. They all look middle eastern. I don't see any basis for saying they are Greek or Roman. The mummification and burial process is Egyptian, and the images of the gods are Egyptian. They are dressing like Romans because that's who is in charge.
Wrong. We are not Middle Easterners or Westerners. We are from North Africa. These are the features of North Africa
@@user-ol3pn3pg2t OK so what is the difference between Middle Eastern and North African? If I'm looking at your face, how do I tell the difference? Not being insulting, just asking.
@@Procopius464The Middle East means the continent of Asia and the Gulf states, and this is not the continent of Africa. I have a genetic analysis and I do not have any Middle Eastern blood. I am Coptic Christian. I am not Arab, but the granddaughter of the ancient Egyptians from North Africa.
@@user-ol3pn3pg2t One of my best friends is Coptic. Here, in the US, he is supposed to put that he's "white" on applications and census forms because the government classifies everyone from the Middle East, North Africa, and Europe as white. I don't agree with it, but that's what they do. IRL he often gets mistaken for Indian, and has Indians trying to talk to him in their language. I knew the Coptic community doesn't like to be called Arabs (for good reasons). I didn't know being classified as Middle Eastern was also offensive. Do you consider the Berbers to also be part of your group?
@@Procopius464Yes, the Berbers are the Berbers from North Africa. They are not Arabs. We are the Copts and the Berbers. The Berbers are cousins because we are from the Hamitic race. The descendants of Ham, the son of Noah. The Berbers are the descendants of Fut, the son of Ham. We, the Copts, are the descendants of Mizraim, the son of Ham. Egypt was named after him.
DNA of momies prouve that this people were egyptian not greek or romain.
