Izmit: City of Untold Treasures (Ancient Nicomedia)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- Directed, produced, and edited by Nate Hovee, this NTG Production Izmit introductory film provides a unique look at one of Turkey's best kept archaeological secrets. Located approximately 90 kilometers east of Istanbul at the eastern tip of the Marmara Sea, Izmit today serves as one of the primary industrial centers in the Anatolian region. Underneath this bustling modern city lie the ancient ruins and treasures of Nicomedia, a prosperous and richly decorated city that once stood as one of the four pillars of the Roman Empire. Though recent findings of ancient artifacts, tombstones, and buildings have revealed the incredible wealth of Izmit's past, little excavation and archaeological research has been carried out.
Discover the ancient history and hidden wonders of Izmit, Turkey, and the greater Kocaeli Province in this unique video presentation and tour of unknown archaeological sites dating back thousands of years. Closed captions (CC) are available in Turkish, and additional information can be found at the official Kocaeli website: www.kocaeli.bel... .

......bu video da nekeadar emek nekadar uğraş nekadar ilgi nekadar merak var. Bizim yapamadığımız yabancılar derleyip toparladılar. Helal olsun .
Nate Hovee ye ve ekibine teşekkür ederiz.
Maalesef ki, tarihi Osmanlı'dan/Selçuklulardan ibaret sayıyor, öncesine sadece değiniyoruz. Tarihe bir bilim olarak değil, bir nostalji ve propaganda aracı olarak yaklaşıyoruz. Belki de bu yüzden elimizden böyle videolar/eserler az çıkıyor.
@@mergen3125 Ben tekrar paylaştım....ve 6 yıl sonra cevap için teşekkürederim :) olsun ama cevap verdiniz ya :)
i am a resident of izmit and i want to thank you for this beautiful work.
in izmit terms "video ateş ediyo karşiiim :)"
The tomb you talk about at the 11:20 mark is the one I saw just after it was discovered. I was living at K.A.S. and went with my family to see it. My father copied the inscriptions, which were in ancient Greek, which we have deciphered. We have pictures of it from various angles. The construction crew knocked the top off of it and then proceeded to uncover the whole tomb, which is much bigger than what is now visible. The area around it has changed dramatically, as there were no buildings or tar roads back then. With this video, you have solved a 49 year old mystery for us. We always wondered what ever happened to it and tried many times to locate it on aerial photo's. Thank you!
@Nate Hove
I know I'm 6 years late but that is incredible! Would love to know what the inscription said!
This short movie is so nice to watch. I have just moved to İzmit and I have learned a lot of nice things from this video. You've done a great job!

Güzelim şehri sanayileştirdiler mahvettiler. Eğer değer verip tarihi kent yapsalardı. şu tarihi yerler gün açığına çıkartsalardı.dünyanın en güzel tarihi şehirleri arasında ilk 10 da yer alabilirdi. içine ettiler güzelim şehrin.
Faramith Grey anadolunun başka yerleri de var neredeyse tüm yükü kocaeliye yüklüyorlar İstanbul a yakın diyedir belki de tarihi güzel şehrimi mahvediyorlar
thank you :)

good job bro

thank you much
Very interesting! Well done!
thank you very much for information.
Welldone😊
😅Beautiful view of the country turkey
amazing indeed!
and you talk about Romans only but you can't read the inscription becouse the language is GREEK!!!! 7.50'
@Sir Wojak IV whatever you say Greeks were the founders of the city...
!en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicomedia
You know Greek was the dominant language in Byzantium a.k.a Rome? So, there is nothing wrong there.
@@mergen3125 I don't speak only for the language,sure the language was greek. But greek people used to live there until the exchange of population 100 years ago! When they forced to leave their homeland and go to Greece as Greek orthodox Christians.
Turkey have to admit the presence of the Greeks in Anatolia and stop hire their continuing existence for 2500 years.
@@taniola007 Turkey does admit the presence of the Greek population in Turkey. We all know these lands did belong to Greek states. You know how it was before the peaceful world established (or the peaceful world we are trying to establish), some people go somewhere, take others lands and settle there. There were also Turks who were sent from Greece to Turkey at that time, I know lots of their descendants. Well, actually, it wasn't a Greek-Türk "exchange", it was a Muslim-Orthodox "exchange". In today's city of Karaman and Konya, there were Orthodox Turkish people called Karamanlids who were forcefully sent to Greece. History is full of wrong doings my friend. The question is, if this wrong doings cannot be undone, what should we do? Sometimes forgiving is the last thing to do.
@@mergen3125 I love to discuss with open-minded people! I agree with you. Forgiveness Is the only thing that can help us to move forward!
Peace and love for 2021!
This is my city ..Thank you very much...been very nice.
Well, we as izmit citizens know lots of undiscovered archeological treasures in izmit, but people are still destroying this beautiful city.
Great video Nate! good job!
It is crazy to see those treasures are abandoned , only in Turkey
Nate Hovee Are there any plans to excavate the city? There must be a wealth of stuff there.
Çok güzel!
Woooowwwwww
I hope you really enjoyed this one, Lei!! 😀
It's pretty sad that I have just learned the fun facts about my hometown
Olá, Nate. Assiste o seu vídeo sobre Izmit, muito interessante. Fiquei com uma dúvida. Na antiga Nicomédia havia catacumbas semelhantes às de Roma, nas quais os cristãos se refugiaram durante as perseguições no império de Diocleciano?
Beautuful!!!
This was awesome. idk how only 6 comments
Merhaba güzel music tesakkur ederim ( What is the tittle of this song )
tarihi eserler
Nate Hovee tahanks
Now I'm having cravings for pişmaniye. Damn I need to go back again so badly, such a great place
Turkey is full off ancient sites to be discovered like izmit(nicomedia).
Nate, any idea where I could find maps of Roman era Nicomedea?
I would check the Archeology Museum of Izmit.
I would check the Archeology Museum of Izmit.
@@natehovee did you find anything?
thanks for the info - pretty insane how Modern Turkey has all of this stuff in its borders today. They would have nothing without Greeks & Romans. You don't cover a major event at Nicomedia. St. Georges beheading at the city gates.
Kocaeli is province but İzmit is a district -if you look maps izmit in kocaeli -
SO MANY PEOPLE CAME AND GONE
İZMİT 😘😍💙💚💚💙
everwhere has a treasure in turkey, but it not legal to look for it; you cannot go and looking for a treasure
it is agains to law, if you find it accidently, you should call police and they give you some money,
I hate places like this who just don't care about excavating it properly it actually pisses me off
Why don't you refer that Nicomedia was first founded by Greek colonists from Megara and GREEKS were living there, since 1922????? My grandparents came from Nicomedia to Greece in 1922..But you never talk about the Greek minority in Bithynia...why are you still afraid? we have gone now...
i love izmit its my land izmit ten selamlar hordi meydan sunar kocaelispor yazar izmit çocuu okur

Wow, very cool!
Very interesting! Well done!
