Yeah it was a super common practice used all over the Mediterranean and by the Germanic tribes , it was basically like asking Hestia to babysit, The unusual part of that story is that she relit the fire
i would really love to have a source for this! I'm a huge greek myth nerd and this is the first I've heard of this! Please I want to read more (especially since I thought a major part of greek religious practice was centered around not letting the hearth go out except when a family member passed away.

Been watching your videos ever since 2014 when I was in 7th grade. I’m 22 years old now (about to be 23 this year) and I graduated college last year. Watching you on this journey from theories to Messed Up Origins have been amazing. It’s even been dope watching you on your workout journey too. Can’t wait to see more and more content roll out from you. If possible, I’d love to see you cover one of like Demigods like Percy Jackson and Luke eventually. We love ya Jon✨🖤
I hope your healing journey is going well! I am taking an advanced folktales/fairy tales class and I sent my class your way in one of our discussion topics! ❤️
Dude that is awesome! Thanks for sharing :) and thank you for the well wishes! I’ve got a big life update coming next week where I’ll fill you guys in!
No mention of Psyche (goddess of the soul), Ganymede (random boy who Zeus found sexy & kidnapped him) or Ariadne (gained godhood through her marriage to Dionysus).
Ganymede and Ariadne were given immortality but do not have domains. This episode I focused on gods who were worshipped with temples, sacrifices, and the like. Seems like a lot of people are upset I didn't mention them though so I'm happy to do a sequel!
I've been digging up as much old mythology and religion as I can to learn more about the themes in Elden Ring and there are countless apotheosis stories in the game that this video of yours was uniquely helpful.
What blows my mind is looking back at OG videos where he drew stick figures to help illustrate the stories and compared to the beautiful (no offense Jon) artwork he can commission now. It's nice to see😊
Corn is an old English word meaning grain. It shows up a lot in old texts and translations as grain. The fact that Maze is the undisputed giant champion of the Corns is why we just started only calling maze; corn. Its all grass seed in the end but dang the Native Americans took Maze to the lead then shattered the record.
Hera is wrong to do so. Zeus was the one doing it yet she attacks the people. I can sympathize with her I know that when it happens it’s so easy to be furious with the ones your lover did it with but ultimately it was Zeus
Sometimes the Greek mythology gods can literally abuse a power and trust me when they abuse their power they use it for unspeakable unforgivable heinous evil sins and much more with crazy incredible feats
Hi. I have been watching your videos for a long time now and I really enjoy them. Could you do a video on more Japanese stories to? I would really like to see a video on miyamoto musashi?

I don't remember that version of the Magic Nanny myth. Every time I've heard it before the ritual being disrupted only caused the Immortality to permanently fail but the baby was safe and would become a great man in the future. Baby incineration not included
This was super superb - every minute of it was great. And the illustrations were especially excellent. Triptolemus in his chariot was wonderfully witty and Io looking on her bovine self was just so poignant.
Hey Jon have you done a videos about the origins of mermaids?? I’ve been seeing videos of how they kidnap people in the Caribbean’s 🤔 please let me know if you have I’m interested!
@@trentitybrehm5105Here's what you're doing wrong all the times you reply to other people's comments with those exact words: You're basically telling people to "look it up" but you will never ever convince a single human being that way. You wouldn't switch sides or even consider it for a second if someone told you to "look into the evidence for Muhammad/Krishna/Buddha/Zeus/Odin/atheism…" You need to provide that evidence for yourself. Really funny though to scroll through the comments at my free time seeing evidence of someone who has nothing but free time 😂😂😂
Poor Io. First she gets violated then she gets turned into a cow, forced to constantly travel around, tortured and then find out she is pregnant from the encounter.
@@katiegustafson6765 Had a feeling. It's one of the more famous movie edits of all time when they came out with a remaster when they started coming out with the prequels.
Of course it was Ovid who fanficed Io into Isis. Should’ve known. That said, Diomedes (the one from the Iliad) receiving the immortality intended for his father (though really he did more to earn it). 😁
4:35 That isn't the myth I heard! In the version I know the interruption didn't kill the child; the terrified mother snatched the baby alive from the flames. At this point, Demeter threw off her disguise and showed herself to the mortal woman. The furious goddess then scolded Metaneira, stating that the child was this close to becoming an immortal god but the mother's foolish interference ruined it forever. Still, Demophon had absorbed enough power from the divine flames so that he managed to achieve the powers of a demi-god if not full godhood.
Egyptian goddess Isis took a job baby sitting for the king while searching for Osiris. She put the baby in the fire to make him immortal and was interrupted. Also see Apotheosis of Washington.
David Giuntoli this guy is the actor if you haven't I think u will enjoy it. Oh p.s watched all your videos i have never commented but I think you are awesome also watched all the god of wars too all truly excitingly educational ok done geeking out wait question is gia part of kaos or are they separate and balancing entities
I actually just finished reading Circe by Madeline Miller a few weeks ago and in that book she turned Galucus into a god so it's really cool to see this video
Bruh i clicked on this video to drive to i heard the voice i thought it was an a.i generated video then i looked at the screen and i seen a real guy talkin 😂 your voice legit bro i subscribed for that one 😅
Side note on Demeter’s stay in Eleusis: there was a slave girl named Iamvi who tried to cheer her up with, let’s say rude songs. And because Demeter at lest appreciated the effort, maybe even laughed, the pentameter used for the rude, yet cheerful songs, is called Iambic.
I don't really know if I would want to be a God I can't take that much responsibility😅 but honestly I would like to be friends with one show Friends sounds nice.
😮whoa, that Triptolemus transition reminds me of those psychedelic bi-phase UV posters. I have my fingers crossed that this will be thing in the near future🤞
Didn't they say King Solomon became a god in Jewish lore? Also you can say Liu Kang, Kratos and others in mortal kombat and video games became gods/titans
“ Zeus started to feel real guilty about what up was going through Me in my mind: wow Zeus having at least a sliver of regret “ reveals he hopes to hook up with her again Me : never mind
Then you got Dionysus, who was born a demi-god, but just gets to be a full god right from the get go, AFAIK. Always found it weird how Hercules was descended from Zeus, on both sides of his family.
Just out of curiosity, would you ever be interested in discussing judeo-christianity or is the topic not something you feel comfortable talking about? I find all mythology interesting, and I mean no offense, but I know that because of where we live some people don't like to. Long time fan, awesome content.

Fun fact: placing babies in a recently used hearth to keep warm is something people really did centuries ago.

It sucks that women get punished by Hera just because Zeus can't keep it in his pants
It's pretty awful he forcibly married the goddess of matrimony only to treat her like that and force her to be unable to strike against them too 😢
Hera is wrong to do so. Zeus was the one doing it yet she attacks the people. I can sympathize with her I know that when it happens it’s so easy to be furious with the ones your lover did it with but ultimately it was Zeus
So? It still happens. What does that tell you about women?
They’re both very lame to me for this exact reason

Where’s Ganymede? He became a god all because Zeus thought he was handsome, cover him next time
Leave him alone D:
Yeah, leave him alone!! So entitled D:

I believe that version was written by Ovid and the child she’s burning is Triptolemus! In Apollodorus’s version it’s Demophon and he dies in the fire.
