The end of this video was an absolute treat, thank you for that!🤣
@@ronoom6202 i love his interactions with the kitties lol warms my heart ❤
Thank you again for your time 🌻 I was so excited that we were blessed by your baby's visit🐈🐾🧡
Thank you for being there my friend. Sometimes Gigi likes to be around when I record a video hehe
Yay!! A new Arith video!!!! 🎉🎉
Edit: omg!! Dancing Cat is the best!! 😂😂
If there was a gold like button, this video deserves it ( except maybe the singing). Hey old friend, I have some good news to share! Last Monday at the hospital, the dressings came off my injured toe and the podiatrist called his colleague over. They were surprised that the wound had started healing itself. For the first time in 3 months. They didn't think it would happen until after the blockage in my blood flow was sorted out. They decided that as the treatment I am under is successful that they will continue with it until I can get an appointment and treated at the other hospital. That night, I had th best nights sleep in months as a great weight was lifted from me. All the nursing staff who deal with me said how much I've changed. I feel that I have turned the corner.
@@colinp2238 Speedy recovery Colin 💚🤘💙

Sensacional, super esclarecedor também, Arith! Obrigada por estar aqui com a gente!
Yay Tata! ;D com todo o prazer! Muito obrigado!
So glad that I stumbled upon your channel, and yes, I have subscribed 🤘
Loved the content, loved the time spent with you and loved the musical ending.
Going back to your content - magnificent my friend. Much love to you and your cat, and many, many Blessings,❤.

Excellent, as aways, thank you and meow!🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🐈🐈⬛
A good and informative video, my friend. Also love your cat.
Adorable final song
I feel so called out by this intro 😂
Super cool video! A creator Mooselady here on youtube has also made two videos on the bodymods like the teeth and skulls for anyone interested in a deeper dive also!
Also in her latest video she talks about a digging she was part of in Varnhem, Västergötland (western part of Sweden as opposed to eastern part like Gotland) where they also found these people with filed teeth, leaving us to believe that perhaps this teeth filing thing was more common than currently believed, theres also a very good book on it called "The vikings grim grin" on the topic! Sorry I'm very passionate on this topic :-D
Yes! Mooselady! I know her :D and it's been a long while since I've talked to her 😔 she's a cool friend 😊 miss her and my boiiiiii Valhyr!
😂😂 stupid f.... games . Thank you Arith for well researched information.....as always. Thank you for clarifying and separating facts from fiction. Be well.
Thank you my friend, as always 😊 hehehe. Be well! All the best!
The toast in Danish is skål, but the skull is skal. Different vowels.
Thank you 🤗
Here within the first 3 minutes 😎🥰🌟 I know what I'll be listening to on the way to work
I'm on break at work and it's dusk
Have a wonderful day! Happy Friday!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, and for calling out those with suspect motives who publish disinformation. 👏👏👏🍻🤘
thanks for the great info on the early names that the people of skandi called themselves kiddo and wonderful to see the cat ! :)
Just saw a reference saying that henbane seeds were found in a Viking grave in Denmark in 1977, which fits berserker symptoms better than amanitas muscaria.
Arith, just out of curiosity how many languages do you speak?
I’ve been watching your channel for several years now. I’ve always loved the information you share highlighted by your enigmatic and lovely accent. I’ve been curious for such a long time as to what mother tongue has influenced such a unique singing and speaking voice.
Many blessings dear Arith. =]
Hi, my last name is Wieland and I've been watching your video's for some years now. :) My family is from West Europe (Netherlands, coming from Germany in the 1700's). Cool to hear that there is no historical evidence for these things (cups). Can you advise any video's/books about this story?
Thank You
Very interesting as usual. I Ann wondering if you have any information on Olaf, as you mention him in free videos. He had a son Theobald. You also mention that people = people before, I wonder o if the bald was a reference to baldr the god? Please excuse any spelling mistakes. Wishes Dawn
Lol makes me wonder how many other Gen X'ers (like myself) watch you regularly 🤔 🤣 Maybe that's why I wish your videos were longer LOL my attention span need more 😜
eventually I shall return to the longer videos hehehe :D I like those too, but since I'm the one making them, I don't have to watch them till the end :p
I consider myself a Neo gen X’er as i am right on the cusp of the generational line (but raised as a X) and i totally agree with you. long form all the way!
@@ArithHärger lmao there's much more effort you've put in then watching till the end lol and for that Good Sir, I appreciate you, the laughs you bring and the great knowledge. THANX AGAIN for being You
There are a few of us dinosaurs watching.
Is there a video on Berserkir (bear shaman warrior) and Ulfhednar (wolf shaman warrior)?
I've done a couple of them, I can share them with you here:

Hello Arith. Just a quick question. You've mentioned in this video of known cases of elongated sculls from South Eastern Europe. Was just wondering if you'd know if any isotopic tests were carried out on those women found in Gotland? They may have come originally from SE Europe. Just a suggestion. Takk.
Indeed, it has been suggested in these studies that the practice may have come from Bulgaria, but it remains unclear. It could be a case of these three women all having been born in south-eastern Europe, as the studuy suggests: "(...) perhaps as children of Gotlandic or East Baltic traders, and their skulls were modified there in the first years of life." But there's also the possibility that such body modifications as presented in these three cases were made on Gotland (the analysis shows that at least one of these women might come from Gotland) or in the eastern Baltic, as a cultural practice adoped from elsewhere and unknown to the Scandinavian Viking Age.
@@ArithHärger thank you so much for your answer. And all your videos.
@@sofijakirovski-mclean6287 my pleasure 🤗🎉
Love your stuff kick on love it ❤️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💥
Great video!
Some of your followers are older... Arith
I know :D although the greatest percentagem (55%) are people between 25-45. Longer videos shall come for those who have more patience and are not easily distracted, unlike myself :p
Which language is the word VOR from? Meaning to warn..
Overgeneralization is the norm of 20th century archeology
I think that's the standard of people no simplify it so you can understand better so we simply convince ourselves we understand when we are incorrect about most things??? Is there more ways to perceive the world then sensations, we can write our false understanding maybe because the material median is more important to the apes existence then the content inside. We have to eat afterall and if you are buying and reading the book and you feel more resolved you got your sensational fix. I think I'm not sure tho
is there any evidence of the practice of cranial elongation within by the Sami peoples?
With the amount and range of. Voyaging from the 'viking' and the 'roman' era it's no wonder that certain strange practices or people would be taken back, surely? As we have no concrete evidence it's nice to fantasise on certain habits. But, historically, it's only guess work ATM
There is still a Viking festival in Oz where the helmets have horns. Fun but incorrect.
Ps, I'm twice your age and still get distracted by shiny things. So don't worry about it 😁.
One of the first things we learn in archaeology is that objects travel more than people, for instance. When a particular object of a culture is found far away from the usual original contexts, doesn't mean the people of that culture were there. It means different people carrying objects through different ways. Nowadays we have Japanese televisions at our home, Swedish furniture, Indian food, Belgian beer, all sorts of stuff made in China, doesn't mean any of these people were at our home when future archaeologists find this stuff at our dwellings :b hehe.
I totally agree. This is how we've established such a rich diversity of cultures, arts, myths etc . I imagine this is what annoyed you somewhat in your past life 😉.
Hi Arith, the word denigrate is quite common in the portuguese language however the word has a racist meaning and origin, it might be best to avoid this word in future. A friend of mine pointed it out when I used it as I had no idea what it meant and where it came from. I know use the words defame/ attack the reputation of as an alternative for that word
Thank you very much for the advice! Will keep that in mind!
I thought these mushrooms tasted funny...

The stereo types cant be avoided when violence are the archaic consensus since every translation of the poetic Edda from Codex Regius and onwards are more or less similar to former translations.
Its scattered and abused as propaganda for the war machine after the Codex Regis until "Svol heitir,hann stendr Solu fyrir,skjoldr,skinanda godi;bjorg ok brim ek veit at brenna skulu,ef hann fellr i fra" Grimnismal # 38
About these three women skulls that was deformed, you mentioned it happened in south eastern Europe, then you maybe have the answer there, Swedish Vikings (gaets, Goths, Rus...) had a lot of raids and trade with that area and female thralls could been brought up and maybe later been wifes and such. Hope someone has checked their DNA.
😅😂
