You have no idea how much i genuinely appreciate when you say “we dont know” or “may be inspired by but we cant tell” most video essays now seems to know absolutely everything about any given topic
@@RomabooRamblings What if the real reason the double headed eagle remained so popular throughout the years is that its just a cool looking symbol😭So many ancient symbols were just bad
the imperial eagle is the historical example of the "Cool S" we all drew in school. Its universal not for any occult or secretative conspiracy, but because we all universally think those symbols are just plain cool as hell.
I think it also serves an artistic feature. Aside from the head every part of an eagle can be symmetrical, but by adding a second head the eagle becomes completely symmetrical. It also gets rid of a bit of blank space opposite to whichever way the eagle’s head points.
I have thought about this before. I think understanding history can be made clearer when we think of our impulses as kids. High school cliques, or kids starting a "club" have the same basic impulses that drive businesses and empires. Not a complete picture of course, but it does seem to distill and clarify otherwise opaque and complicated history.
Ok that's it, that did it, best channel on RUclips right now. I'll take 1 hour videos three times a year this well researched over almost daily 20min videos about things that could be explained in 3 minutes. And this one covered absolutely all of my biggest interests, it's insane: zoology, heraldry, symbolism, byzantines, Spanish empire... It's totally one of those rabbit holes that start with an extremely specific question in my mind have have me opening 30 tabs on my phone that later take me one whole day to go through, the difference being that you actually have the talent to turn that into a wonderful video like this one. Congratulations.
I began watching this video expecting the history of the Roman two-headed eagle, didn't expect to end up watching a section related to two-headed eagle gold figures among the Chibchan peoples of Central America and Colombia. Awesome video.
The “allseeing eagle” explanation for the double heads is actually mind blowing to me. I never thought of it that way, but now it makes perfect sense. I agree that it seems like the most likely explanation.
Bro this is an absolutely amazing and incredibly well done video, helps me with my research into how civilisations, religions, cultures, material groups (whatever you want to organise them as) are connected and depict Terrans story from our earliest beginnings to present day and the future, may God bless you for your work brother.
The Reichsalder of the HRE was single headed until Otto IV used the double headed eagle in the 13th century. After that it gained more popularity with Holy Roman Emperors until it became standard in the 14th century onward.
However, in later usage it became common usage of both forms of eagles - the one headed eagle to symbolise Germany proper, the double headed eagle for the entire Empire....
Informative bangar of a video. I can only imagine the amount of research and effort put into this, makes the long wait worth it. Is it possible to post the list of sources you used? Or at least the major ones? I wanna find out more about the double headed eagle silks which were recorded in the monastery registries.

32:04 You were correct to mention the world tree and the double headed eagle on top of it, as it is a mythological concept in turkic culture going back to the shamanistic beliefs. It was considered to be a holy bird, carrying both the attributes of Tughrul and Kongrul, one looking to the east, the other to the west, it was also believed to be the guardian, watching the door to the heavens.
Something of note to mention is that the Holy Roman Emperors actually used a single headed eagle on a golden/yellow field up until around the 1400s when the Habsburgs became emperors and their coat of arms changed to be a double headed eagle instead. I’m not sure what to make of that information but it’s there. Edit: never mind this was addressed in the video
I mention it later on in the vid: full switch to the two-headed eagle for the HRE happened with Sigizmund of Luxembourg, so a bit earlier than the Habsburgs
And maybe we’re keeping in mind that principal that an Eagle with his wings turned up is actually a phoenix, or isn’t act of being a phoenix as far as the characteristics qualities marked noted or stamped there on.
Aguilar(Eagle) translation into French is Aiguille (Needle/Arrow), I believe the triple circles on the double eagle heads is the Trinity, Norse symbol for Trinity.

Amazing work, by the way at 1:07:12 - it wasn't Napoleon dissolving the HRE, it was the Habsburgs not trusting the electors and trying to deny Napoleon that title and everything that it implies. That's well known historical fact, not sure how you could get that wrong. I enjoyed the rest very much though, thanks for this interesting production. Double headed eagles are just an awesome symbol/meme, I reckon for all of humanity during the ages. Its worldwide adoption probably is that simple. Especially after being minted on coins.
i live in Anatolia. I found a chipped stone when i was teen near Antalya beach, it had an amblem of double headed eagle just like the hittites example. I lost it in 25 years of time and i regret that very much.
Absolutely amazing and entertaining. The double eagle head has just the meaning the bearer wants it to have, as its so old and widespread its original meaning does not matter anymore, just what we do with it. As a Colombian, nice to have the Muiscas and Tunja in the video, but in the voice of Hermione Granger, it's Colombia, not Columbia. Xd
I’m Iraqi and while watching I remembered our coat of arms which is Eagle of Saladin and I searched to make sure and it turns out the original one on the west wall of the Cairo citadel is speculated to be two headed cus it currently headless or at least that what google told me lol Anyway thanks to you now I’m dreaming of making the coat of arms of Iraq have two heads instead of one not only because of Saladin but because of ancient Mesopotamian ones you should great video btw
It’s wild to see medieval depictions of Rome just looking like medieval Europe, but of course they would. It’s interesting to think about how their perception of the past was shaped by the world of their here and now.

People don’t understand just how important symbols are to those in power. They don’t just randomly choose their logos, it is a very expensive and thorough design process to ensure the design expresses the owner’s intent. There is no such thing as coincidence when it comes to symbolism in royal, state, or corporate heraldry and logos.
"A moose man attacked by dogs." When I saw that, what sprang to mind for me was Actaeon of Greek myth, who in the most famous (but not only) version of the story accidentally peeped on the goddess Artemis bathing, who in punishment transformed him into a deer and had his beloved hunting dogs devour him. It was pretty popular in the Renaissance.
fantastic work. Thank You. I offer a hypothesis of sorts. The followers of "Janus". Pre-Genoese, pre-Roman. Merchants -Portugal to Constantinople and beyond. I think in a larger sense it became associated with "organizations" that offer services and quality known throughout the world's ports. In some cases even borrowed into cultures to exemplify certain qualities and stature. Much like the swastika was long used as a symbol for luck and quality before becoming part of a negative group. This Janus duality double headed symbol combined with the eagle in Rome and the griffin in other areas, birthed a dual headed symbol going forward. These merchants moved into politics and into world domination in shipping and finance. which is why the symbol transcends borders sometimes inexplicably. They say follow the money, in this case follow the silk road and its predecessors. Keep in mind that whomever funds the new king's rise to power cares more for the symbol on the banner than the king himself.
in modern Greece the double-headed eagle on a yellow background is the flag/seal of the Greek army, it is a flag /symbol of the Greek Orthodox Church and generally something of a national flag, as well as the flag/symbol of the Greek sports clubs AEK and PAOK which have their roots from Constantinople before populations exchange. The double-headed eagle appears in many areas of culture.
The two headed eagle entity from bactria is the Aryan God Gandaberunda. In the Aryan legends of old he fought a tiger demon and a boar demon representing falsehood and greed . Gandaberunda represents the rise of the humanind to the highest levels of truth in personal and professional life. As an eagle rises to the highest point in the sky so a man's mind must also rise if he seeks liberation from evil.
It’s a symbol for seeing the light and dark, physical and spiritual, within and without. It’s kind of an occult symbol as not everyone is awake to the true spiritual bodies which cast the shadows we call physical world.
No, it was not founded by charles, but by frances d arago i gurmea( prince ferran cortes) since there is nothing in felipist castilian or modern day spanish , they just took over the catalans and their trade routes. It is also a shame that the language of the hitler of 16 century( phillip) is still spoken by 800/900 million, when the times of inquisition and impostion are over, suposedly.

Hi, I just wanted to ask if you had any good modern reads you'd recommend for the Komnenian period? I really enjoyed your Roman periods video, as I really like periods (don't take that out of context!)
We enjoyed the video but the double headed eagle was already an ancient sacred Minoan symbol in mystical Crete. The ancient Greek literature described that the Minoans/Mycenaeans sailed to America to trade Bronze. There are many Minoan/ Myceanean symbols to find. Not through the Atlantic, but through the Pacific. The journeys to India from Dionysus were dated about 6.500 BC.
The doubled headed eagle was a Mycenaean symbol and exhibits in the archaeological museum of Athens. Eagle was the symbol of Zeus and it was on all Ancient Greek coins of Alexander the Great before adopted by Romans.
Wow! This is not a subject that I have considered for a couple decades. Back then I settled on the understanding that the double-headed eagle originated in Phrygia and that all who used it afterward did so in remembrance of Phrygia, much the same as the Phrygian cap and Mithras, which are also popular symbols/sigils. I had no idea that the double-headed eagle was fashionable in the east too, well excluding Russia, which has practically circled the globe, making an east-west distinction meaningless, I remember Guruda (a big, single-headed eagle) and Narahimsa taking out Hiranyakshipu in Indian lore, but not Gandaberunda taking out Sharabha. Maybe I was distracted while reading that story. Anyway, I wanted to thank you for the really interesting content and your sense of humor. Hey, why does the medallion @33:00 symbolize demonetization of this video? I don't get the joke. Duh!

Because no other culture, at any other time in human history, could have possibly ever thought of a two headed eagle.

Wow! This is not a subject that I have considered for a couple decades. Back then I settled on the understanding that the double-headed eagle originated in Phrygia and that all who used it afterward did so in remembrance of Phrygia, much the same as the Phrygian cap and Mithras, which are also popular symbols/sigils. I had no idea that the double-headed eagle was fashionable in the east too, well excluding Russia, which has practically circled the globe, making an east-west distinction meaningless, I remember Guruda (a big, single-headed eagle) and Narahimsa taking out Hiranyakshipu in Indian lore, but not Gandaberunda taking out Sharabha. Maybe I was distracted while reading that story.
Anyway, I wanted to thank you for the really interesting content and your sense of humor. Hey, why does the medallion @33:00 symbolize demonetization of this video? I don't get the joke. Duh!
