You piqued my interest with the potential for a documentary on the templars what I got was less than ten minutes of history and almost a whole 50 minutes of conspiracy theory driven, pseudo-historical, History channel worthy garbage
This has nothing or very little to do with the Knights Templar who were originally honest monks called the "Poor Soldiers of Christ" who became the Order of Solomon's Temple. Later the Knights Templar. The monks opened up the Order to lay people who held wealth and property. Upon entering they gave up their lands and possessions. In turn, the Knights used the money for campaigns into the Holy Land. They developed the 1st banking system (the forerunner of the Swiss Bank). A pilgrim to the Holy Land would put their money into a Templar bank at home, with no fear of being robbed (which is one of the reasons the Templars went on crusade) having no money, would bring a note from the Templars at home then, withdraw it in the Holy Land.
There are thousands of documents by the Templars containing vows, real estate purchases, business acquisitions all for the sake of the crusades.
The Templars' unfortunate end came from not paganism, or some alternate form or Christianity but the overspending of the King of France. He could no longer pay them, deeply in debt to many, he was informed of the Templars' true wealth, went to the Pope, who 1st refused dissolving the Order but with pressure, relented. ALL the charges were made out of whole cloth (complete fabrication).
The Merovingian Dynasty were simply human, not Divine, not descended from Jesus at all. We have the entire family tree as well as a complete DNA sequence taken from a Merovingian Queen's big toe. This is nothing but DaVinci Code Mark III (since there was a (Mark II), and a bit of Zeitgeist thrown in for effect.
Sorry, I have studied and researched a lot of history in my time!
It is a fun show however! We like fantasy and fairytales!
You didn't disagree with the video lol. But you did admit to not understanding it!
The Merovingians might have been “just human.” But all the Germanic Kings of the Post-Migration period were pretty badass. Alaric, Clovis, Theodoric, Totila, etc. all handy with a sword.
But for us, the serious history enthusiasts, we seek Truth. Your contribution is based on fact. It corresponds with my research. What have fake claims or concocted stories of MM & Jesus got to do with a noble cause? 😮
Thanks for sharing
@@ZackHughes You are welcome!
This was interesting...but i have no idea what he's going on about....I thought this was supposed to be about the history of the templars
Around 13m its like it skips the whole story
dumb. it is
This dude just begins a connecting ramble
@boblogIIIfan
You mean when things get interesting and go into the subjects that you will not find in every other Templar documentary? This has it's own place amongst them.
I agree. I bailed on this.
All this serpent stuff strikes me as hisssterical and hissstrionic.
🤦♀
It's really strange how the narrator kept mispronouncing "retook" as "took".
The Christians didn't take anything from the Muslims. Islam is 600 years younger than Christianity and before the Muslims took the holy land it came under Christian control when the Roman empire converted to Christianity from paganism. Judea was a Roman province. It was under Roman rule when Christians were still a persecuted minority that the Jewish temple was destroyed and the Jews, who had already massacres the natives of that region centuries before were exiled.
How did you therefore workout that the crusades were aggressive and not reactionary?
So when Muslims invade that's ok but if a Christian reacts they're taking from the Muslims? That's the same logic as manifest destiny. Funny how it works out differently for Amerindians though ay?
If you're willing to lie about such easily provable history, I assume so you don't have an aeroplane flown into your face or get beheaded, then none of your documentary can be trusted. The thinness of your neck and forked tongue might prevent you telling any accurate history at all.
They have to keep repeating their lies until people believe them. The way information is filtered online these days, it won't be long before real history is forgotten. They've been pushing this narrative so long that even some scholars believe that the Crusaders were the unprovoked aggressors against a peaceful, ecumenical, tolerant nation.
Had very little to do with the Knights Templars. Was very very disappointed in it. Definitely it not worth watching again or even for the 1st time watching.
This went from zero to sixty in really short time :D
>first half: legit history
>second half: wildest non-stop occultist speculation known to man
Yeah, I was searching for a good documentary to put on before bed last night and watched the opening moments of this. "Okay, looks legit," I thought, dimming the brightness and retreating under the duvet. As you say, it went from a sober history of the Knight's Templar to straight-up Ancient Aliens shit at the end, dissecting the etymology of words for no discernible reason. I've written many a rambling essay in my day, but at least I know how to stay on topic and keep it interesting. The lowest mark I got was a B in university, even when I pulled an all-nighter (which was most of the time) and just pounded it out the night before it was due. But this guy? D-. He sucks. I'm cool.
This “documentary” is a joke. It’s pure balderdash
Dan Brown called. He says he wants his anti-Christian hogwash back. Dan, a word rooted in the term “dance,” and we know that the musician Prince danced on stage, and had a birthmark. Ancient Egyptians also danced, and some had birthmarks, so therefore, Dan Brown is the Egyptian god Osiris. Because, you know, hogwash history.
Lmao dude I had to check to make sure I was still on the video about the templars. By the time he starts talking about the merovingians and snake people/ wandering Jew this documentary lost all credibility lol
Well to be fair ...
The Templars name is now surrounded by conspiracies and the occult.
Hardly a documentary...some facts surrounded by a web of speculation...and downright insanity
I thought this channel presented actual history. Very disappointing.
Explain?
Well, this turned demonic!😃
hahaha this is the documentary version of that always sunny meme. Came to watch an actual documentary on the Templars based in some approximation of historical fact. Still it was a very fun story with some interesting notes about European (and beyond) religious history. Still a fuckload of citation needed here.
Cool documentary on schizophrenia, really gives a 7 dimensional, abstruse mino-king-child sun radiant perspective.
An almost completely incoherent rambling of unrelated historic facts, random snippets of fairy tales, conspiracy theories, wild interpretations with no substantiation & "I heard it from a guy I knew." 🤦♂️
You come off so confused
The driving anxiety in the musical score and the relentless commentary with innumerable loosely integrated facts leaves even the most avid listener lost in the verbiage.
The amount of adverts is a joke
@@CarniFitMe that’s why I only listen to stuff like this in MiniPlayer mode
Spot on
@@CarniFitMe I dont have ads. But I don't see an issue with the doc. I just think the music could have been quieter.
hell ya diis is da $hit, I be avid listening 2 dis
46 minutes into this and besides the very beginning I have not heard one thing about the Templars. Plus the constant stringing of ideas reminds me of Zeitgeist
Only got 21 mins in. It turned into occultist drivel. Chronicle, you dropped the ball on this steaming pile...
It ties it back together in the end, but it really didn't need all the detail to do it. Basically the Templars discovered Christianity was derived from pre-Jewish myths and beliefs, and this was the thing they were protecting/keeping hidden, and what eventually pissed off the Catholic church and turned it against them.
@@NotSure109 What are trying to say with that horrid writing of yours? Seriously, do you have any idea as to what you're trying to get at?
@@vvcv__00 You're telling on yourself.
@@NotSure109I’m barely holding on to the end with this documentary. TY for the TLDR.
Can’t say I like more “Templar Treasure” theories in a historical documentary though. We have facts about what they did and extensive writings, speculation and derivatives from past theories is bad history and education.
This was quite a lot of misunderstood hogwash strung pretty incoherently together. Sorry.
I was thinking along the same lines. At some point it stopped being about the knights, and became about a random string of esoterica.
for anyone who wants to know more about the knights Templar, read 'legends of the knights Templar' by A.A. Grishin.
So many of these claims about early Frankish leaders does not comport with recorded history. Of course I understand that this is a grail story, and is bound to be filled with fanciful tales and allusions to deep secrets. I got a laugh when the narrator said (to paraphrase) that Dagobert had secrets that people still don't know. Right, dude. It's called a secret for a reason.
But I didn't expect such inaccuracies with historical fact. I guess if you're committed to telling a conspiracy legend you just have to accept whatever you're told by the creators of that tale.
well said cheers
I would like to know how the f*** you got a tree from a monkey
Started OK, then quickly turned into rubbish
20:38 Your researches are not complete. I'm of that line and I have marks on my body to prove it. Perhaps most notably, I have a 76 on my left hand. If youre not familiar with that seal, your research is lacking.
so in short your saying that the Templars met some other blokes who had been taking magic mushrooms
and told the Templars that some bloke called jesus who supposedley went around telling people he was the son of god was actually a snake ?...i did find it interesting but i wonder if you could make it a bit more simple and explain the connection between the Templars and what it is your saying that i dont understand ?
Medieval history.....mmmm...perhaps you should have made a doco on longbows...drawing them...certainly what is done here.
This is NOT Time Team.....
This is quite possibly the least coherent attempt to explain anything concerning esoteric knowledge.
A to B to E to C to F
Ramblings of a mad man.
The cross shown in the beginning is a malteser cross and it was not the signia of the Templars but of the order of Saint John
This is not a good doco in the sense that it really dosnt give a full account of the financial and true meaning of the knights templars and how they ran their institution,perhaps at some stage someone will tell their true story.
What do you need to know?
Dragon in the Chalice? NO! The Flagon with the Dragon has the pellet with the poison, the Chalice from the Palace has the brew that is True!
90 % of this documentary is about pagan religions before Christianity and hardly talks about the Knights Templar at all
Real interesting history
Too much Dan Brown silliness
Just look up Real Crusades History, they do a lot of TRUE history on the Templars and the rest of the Crusades era and Middle Ages.
"Time Team" is a specific long running series in the UK. This is not affiliated with them. It is clickbaity. It is like putting a sign outside your home reading "McDonald's" inside there are 4 pinball machines and 2 chimps screeching wildly, while thrashing out blindly for fear of the bells.
I guarantee, there is no burger or, side of fries for you today.
Yeah, no.
I mean, it's not the best put together video ever, but I did have a bit of a giggle at " huge tracts of land" 😅👍
A Monty Python fan.
The only reason to marry a woman. Huuuuuuuge… tracts of land.
Pheew, mate … what have you been smoking? And what happened to tripods? The shaky, jumpy, flickery footage is most annoying.
Misleading and historically incorrect content. Instead of the amazing story of knights templars, we get an unsavory half-cooked soup of biased bits and pieces. And it is pread via Internet. Thankfully, RUclips provides an option to report this misleading spam.
Chronicle, if you give me more absurdities, such as this, I'm leaving you forever!
"... HUGE tracts of Land ...."
Wtf did I just try to watch…
Came for some real information about the Templars, ended up with foolishness. Utter waste of time.
Jesus as a culmination of skin shedding snake gods? Gee, thanks for saving that till the end. What a waste of your time.
18:15 What source is this coming from? The Carolingian's were the Holy Roman Emperors with Charlemagne being the first crowned by the Pope in 800. The Merovingians were long gone from ruling by then.
Bertrada (Charlemagne’s mother) was a Merovingian. Pepin’s father Charles Martel was a national hero which lead to great marriage prospects for his son Pepin.
nope... a lot of speculation and not real research...and the video is unwatchable due to amateur shaky-camera syndrome
The cross is a symbol of Christ. This guy is looking to deep into shit.
_… so, why does it say “Time Team” in the title?_
Nonsense 😂 here is an idea for a future documentary: pyramids, Illuminati, Buddha, sacred cows, the moon, tales of la Sallona and other female ghosts, the chupacabras, Atlantis…and Go!!
Half-goat half fish aka half-bull half fish is Capricorn, which is January, the actual month Jesus was born.
Seems more a job for Doctor Freud than Doctor Jung this one.
As a Mason, he is talking absolute crap
The search for the Holy grail. Pre-dates Christianity by many years. The ancient celts had it, it was called the cauldron of plenty. The Hebrew people had it, for them it was the stone that fell from heaven. The Christian version talks about the cup that gives ever lasting life. People have gone to enormous lengths to track down one version or another of these. The most popular Christian version is the cup Jesus used at the last supper, that Joesph of Arimathea used to collect his blood after the crucifixion. First of all the cup Jesus used at the last supper was no different to the cup anyone else used at the last supper. And secondly you didn't collect blood from corpses in Jewish tradition, it was the last thing you did! The grail is a coded allegorical description of the pathway to enlightenment, it's a transformative process, it's an intellectual and spiritual change.
The Templars were recognised by King Baldwin the second in somewhere around about 1118. In 1127 they came scurrying back to Europe all of them all nine, met with the King of France and then went north to Scotland to a family known as the Sinclair's of Rosslyn, another branch of the Rex Deus families and within ten years they were granted properties at such a speed that in many cases they couldn't garrison them for some time afterwards. Nearly every Rex Deus family in Europe gave them property. Within eight months of returning to Europe they had obtained through the good offices of another Rex Deus member Bernard of Clairvaux or Bernard de Fontaine to give him his real name, they had obtained papal recognition.
How 9 elderly Knights were meant to protect the pilgrim routes remains a bit of a mystery as they did nothing of the sort for the first nine years. They burrowed 120ft down through solid rock below the temple Mount. What they found is still under intense speculation. From the ark of the covenant to replicas of the dead Sea scrolls, hand on heart we just don't know. It's a fascinating story and most likely will never be revealed.
A couple of years after that that were granted exemption from taxes from the Church and exempted taxes from the state, they were responsible to no King, no Emperor, no Bishop, only to the Pope alone through their Grand Master. It was a degree of autonomy that has never been granted to any order before or since.
Thank you! I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one who thought this guy was as mad as a Hatter. His constant reference to bulls is because this video is full of it.
@@maryellencook9528 That is your opinion dear Mary and you are entitled to it! this is based on mythology you really shouldn't take this literally.
@@swiftcee266 I don't take it literally.
Jesus is the Holy Grail!!
Idk where you got the bit about Levites coming from the word leviathan but etymologically speaking there is no basis for that, the root word which it derives from (Levite) is Lava, which means to join or be joined, to borrow or cause to borrow (TWOT reference 1087,1088) and the word Levi according to Strong’s H3881, means joined to and is the name of Jacobs third son. The word leviathan uses the same root word Lava but that in no way means Levi is a derivative of leviathan if the root word Lava came first. That means leviathan was pulled from lava which only means to be joined. This whole concept of loosely connecting words based on similar sounding is a method of the world wide church of God because God expressly forbids the worship of pagan idols and levites weren’t formed until after the law was given so what in the good name of the Lord are you talking about? This whole documentary was lacking in historical evidence and was based on opinions and presuppositions. I seriously question the legitimacy now of this channel and it’s ability to research thoroughly
How to destroy a fascinating subject.
Definitely one of my favourite parts of history to learn about. Always up for a documentary on the Knights Templar.
How is this "Time Team?"
Too confusing to follow anything
Bleeding nora !! 😊
9:00 old man twerking in the background got me acting up
Bonkers theories
this documentary was a wild ride for the whole hour...I've never watched even a RUclips Poop with a more disparate story and confusing timeline, but just as entertaining! Loved it!
wrong
I KNOW you did NOT just accuse JESUS of worshipping SERPENTS?!?!?! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!
Unbearable background music looping the same thing over and over. I had to stop watching. The music was just dropped in as an afterthought.
You know when you tell the 82% truth with a 18% lie or 85% truth with a 10% lie at a 5% up in the air baby and you just grab that and you apply it to your side of the story of Jesus Christ lived and died sure as anything he never send and he never belong to a occult he was the occult in himself because he was the manifestation of prophecy
The "Templar" cross you displayed in the intro is in fact a "Maltese" cross derived from the Knights of St. John (Knights Hospitallers), the other main warrior monks.
I thought this was about history. What the hell was this guy going on about with serpent worship in Ireland?! The weren't snakes in Ireland in ancient or medieval times. I thought this channel was a reliable source for history but apparently it lets nonsensical crap be spouted off like fact too. What are the sources this guy is getting his information from?!
59:19 That's the Manner Of Melchizedek.
Anyone else struggling to follow what the hell this guy is going on about? It’s a very interesting and professional production, and the narrator is clear but the script sounds like it was written by a lobotomised golden retriever, clumsy and nonsensical. WTF 😳
the evidence presented? 😂, you just showed your ignorance on gnosticism , christianity and specially in judaism
helpful...although could be more accurate or something - could have a part 2... am suppose
I was looking to learn more about the templars and after about 15 minutes of generic infomation it goes into madness and mythology that has no relevance. What's worse is that this exact same video is on about 5 different channels.
Underneath the temple of the mount, there is a great sign there, but they’re not allowed to dig because of it. That is the secret to and the Muslims will not allow any archaeological digging underneath the site.
In all my years of listening and learning from this and other history channels, I have never heard bigger bull***t fairytale such as this. Jesus worshipping a snake? Really?? For the first time ever I feel dumber for listening to this “history” piece.
Absolutely brilliantly done,sending Love to each of You protection Healing good health wealth your way 👊❤❤❤
GREAT VIDEO. Love this dive into the cultural myths that make up the mindset and atmosphere of the time!!
That’s why I’m still Catholic. The bullcrap this video generates is way overboard and this has been going on for thousands of years since Christ.
This "documentary" is about as WACKY as the guy narrating it and a waste of an hour and 4.5 minutes.
The only reason I watched the whole thing was to see if at the end it would all make sense. It didn't.
they took their vows of poverty, then they accumulated masses of wealth like Europe had never seen before. lol priceless!
Whatever this is, it ain't a documentary about the history of the Knights Templar
Such a good channel with so much to watch but this "documentary" is utter drivel. Is it some kind of a joke? But I don't get what is funny.
Did I just watch this same doc on a different History Hits-affiliated channel? Mmm, duplicate content.
As a post-graduate historian, this man is full of it. He makes claims without evidence. What a pawn, and a waste of time.
We can glaze over the "accusations" thrown towards the Templars and move on to the convoluted story about the holy grail or we can actually draw some direct links. The final Grandmaster of the Templars was Jaques De Molay. He was burned at the stake with other Templar leaders because they were required to denounce Jesus as part of the initiation ceremony, this is also true at the to obtain the highest degrees in Freemasonry. The Freemasons also named their youth society De Molay after that same Grandmaster. We could go on and on but even just taking a look at the Templar's position in the world at the time and only imagine what they were getting involved in. A secret society that is the only international bank who are also above the law.
I am sure the serpent has to do with Genesis and the holy grail to do with the tree that God kicked everyone out of the garden before they could become immortal.
Knights Templar: The Rise And Fall Of The Mysterious Warrior Monks | Knights Templar | Time Team 0737am 11.7.23 the templers and carlos castenada being the two subjects i studiously boned up on when i first joined the library in rochdale as a youing kid... very interesting. as to whether or not they have their facts right re: templers.... who knows? nowadays middle eastern strife is probably still based within these templer crusade tales... you should go watch the film: man who would be king. as for carlos castenada - again, very interesting... no idea if anyone other than evil dead tv series referenced that mescal kiddie. horse shoe in aboriginal art means: man....
Good luck trying to find the ark of the covenant ..Jesus took that with him when he ascended into heaven .
There is no greater archetype than the warrior monk
True.
Drops Templar's in the first ten min then turns into Joe Rogan on DMT.
Muslim were not known religion till the 17th century when they occupied Egypt.
Lets get something straight, freemasons are nothing to do with knights templars. Period.
they name their orders after the templars, they're all about rebuilding the temple, plenty of allusions to gnosticism in both, were all about undermining the catholic church who oppressed the templars and forced them to go underground, the masons literally admit their link to the templars... it doesn't take a genius to put these pieces together. why are you trying to lie for?
Actually that's not true. The templars did begin the freemasonry doctrine and cult like group. They go pretty far back and are tied to many of these groups and religious groups that thought they were justified by their actions. Including the catholic church. There's a lot of documentation showing the templars foundation history in freemasons.
@@jeffnichols7834
The freemasons hijacked the templars status symbol's 300 years after the so-called demise of the templars, the freemasons are not christian folk, infact quite the opposite.

10:27 " _Banking and may very well have been the very first in existence did work_ " - Not so - check the Persian Empire - Cyrus the Great I believe.
Started out well enough but degenerated into piffle.
I wish there was a more in depth episode about the Merovingian Kings and their "connection" to Mary Magdalene(sp).
That’s some Dan Brown nonsense. I’m related to the Merovingians (most Europeans alive today are, this isn’t some grand claim) and they’re just Germanics of the post-migration period. I’m mostly Gothic, but Theodoric married Clovis’ sister named Audofleda and they had a daughter together and one of her descendants married the later king Totila and the children from the marriage were spirited away north of the Alps after Totila and Teia’s deaths.
For all of you who wonder how this connects to the Knights Templar...This is all Gnostic knowledge which they studied. This is also Occultism which connects all of the dots of what they represent and influenced.
