This is actually a fascinating look into how these people understood what we now know to be various cycles in nature. The salt in the sea really is the run-off from the land. The water really does carry solutes from the land out to sea, where evaporation creates pure water again and returns it to the land. They would have been able to observe that lands that are drained with a continuous flow are much nicer (for humans) than marshy areas where water stagnates (and you get tons of "xrafstars".) All those dead creatures are a part of the carbon cycle, whereby carbon shifts back and forth from CO2 to living systems to minerals.
Thank you! This was wonderful! Your explanations & examinations of the various passages & charms then connected to evident cosmogeny helped me to see similarities learned from Traditional Oriental Medicine theory. For example, the charms moving outward from the core is similar to how the Meridians are worked with in acupuncture & acupressure. In this ancient healing practice, it is all about balancing the dichotomy, elements, functions, microcosm & macrocosm. Depending on specific diagnosis & treatment - Top to Bottom, Left to Right, Front to Back, from the center outward, and deep to superficial. There is also the roots of Feng Shui as a way to connect the human & their activities with the personal & local environments, as well as the Cosmos. ❤️♾️❤️ I enjoy discussing & learning about the foundations of our humanity! So appreciate your channel & your work!
Can you do a video on the Indo European use of cannabis? I read a very interesting article about cannabis being spread throughout Europe by the Yamnaya. Interesting I thought.
Thank you. Behind me are some asthetically pleasing books to look at, my actual library is much bigger and I would say more impressive, and I will do a tour of the bookshelves in a few months.
@@CrecganfordYou surely got my 'bald' interest up now. Must watch that episode because of the mystery . . . Visual evidence suggests the caveman techniques covered either didn't work or else has not yet applied. : )
I find your channel super interesting! I was wondering if you could do a general video explaining how we know so much of people so long ago. I'm always baffled by how much seems to have survived!
PIE keeps on amazing me. The man is the cosmos since cosmos is made of man, so healing the cosmos heals the man... On the other hand, Slavic cosmogony is nothing like PIE, almost Biblical. Still from what we know Slavic myth and languages are firmly Indoeuropean. Would you mind to explain what happened there?
In short, as I may try and make a video about this one day, the cultures there had no written record before Christianity came along, and when it did it took the myths of the local cultrures and Christianised them, and his turned myth into folklore, and folklore evolves more freely than myth as it isn't deemed so sacred. But you can still find elements of the original myth in some of this folklore, good characters replaced by Jesus, bad gods by the devil, but sometimes elements of the plot remain.
I personally love the Charm of the Nine Herbs and I found this video helped me look at it in a new light. I love local folk tales of herb names and uses and find it fascinating it can be stemmed from the knowledge that plants came from the primordial being as did we so we can use the various things to help aid us when ill/injured. Another thought I had was on the various sites of healing such as springs and methods of healing such as warm or cold stones to reduce inflammation or pain, though the thought of ancient man rubbing gravel in his wound when you mentions rubbing stone to bone made me chuckle.
I've been imagining myself using Granny's Drawing Salve for slivers, and to aid other forms of extraction for deeply embedded items beneath the skin, boils etc. It's totally plant based, pine tar, and powerfully healing, an old folk magic recipe that makes me wonder how far back it can be traced.
I found this article on the subject and am curious to look more deeply.

@TwisterTornado i was imagining myself having used it in the past as I listened to the narration. Hopefully you can rest easy now from the conundrum my comment presented you.

From all I've read and heard, the answer is because it was necessary in order to create the material world. Without yemo's body, there would be no material world.
In south Florida neighborhoods on runs I occasionally see someone left a broken egg on a corner of a street. Ive seen it over a dozen times now in various parts of town now. Wonder what they’re trying to accomplish
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but isn't all that just an early example of "Balancing the Humor" ? As I understand the current theory and the recent papers, I do hear a very similar philosophy is becoming a "thing," right now.

Just because something is ABOUT magical thinking doesn’t mean it VALIDATES the medical efficacy of magical thinking.
Can you do a video on the Indo European use of cannabis? I read a very interesting article about cannabis being spread throughout Europe by the Yamnaya. Interesting I thought.
Yes, I have been looking at this on and off for a few years, and so I will talk about that one day.
I saw a Sci show that explained that ancient humans cultivated Marijuana BEFORE they cultivated food crops like rice, wheat, and corn!
@@duraticatereef1003 I watched that the other day too
Ancient Cannabis Cult by S.t.J is a good watch if you haven't already seen it
I think survive the jive did a video on this.
Yep, this time I am watching this with a dram of rum, and it fits the topic perfectly!
I can't help but notice a very impressive library behind you on the shelves. Thank You for sharing this healing information with us. Skal
Thank you. Behind me are some asthetically pleasing books to look at, my actual library is much bigger and I would say more impressive, and I will do a tour of the bookshelves in a few months.
@@Crecganford😮ooooo I love libraries! A tour!
Very interesting how their understanding while not entirely right was still somewhat on the right track
Yes, they had a logic, and that is what makes it really interesting for me.
@@Crecganford thank you for getting back to me
@@CrecganfordIn the Bible it says that a lump of figs was rubbed on king hezekiah’s body after he became unwell and it healed him. Is that similar?
@@henchy3rd I meant the origin of it as in where the Israelites got it from
Aw vid felt so quick, wonderful as usual and informative 😊
In curious what is known about indo European hair care? Cutting and braiding?
more likely: braiding...
I talk about this in the video about curing baldness.
Ohh thank you I watch it again

Yes, I do touch on this in some of the videos about the very oldest stories, but perhaps I should make a specific video about it. Leave it with me.

I continue to be impressed with the amount of thought put into how magic works. It's anything but random!
Indeed, it is quite astounding how logical it all was considering their understanding of the cosmos.
Prayers are modern spells and charms.

Love your bookshelves btw
One day I'll try and do a tour, as you only see about 20% of them behind me.
Always was entertaining and educational. Thanks for doing all the research for us
Thank you.
Thank you, I love everything you do, your videos are wonderful, I'm always excited when I see a new one.
Thought I'd have lunch and watch your wonderful new video, will stick to tea in future 😄🍵
Ah, yes, maybe a little too many "creepy crawlies" in this one for those eating.
Why did Manu sacrifice Emo? That seems to be a little overlooked.
To create the world I believe.
I had to do a double-take, because I thought you wrote 'Elmo' for a second there.
From all I've read and heard, the answer is because it was necessary in order to create the material world. Without yemo's body, there would be no material world.
Because Emo didn't stop crying over their homework.
To get to the other side. Actually, he’s told the full version many times. Emo sacrificed himself to build the world basically

It doesn't all simply boil down to 'magic' though, does it... There's a lot of logic in there that would have come from observation of the world.
Indeed, which is why I say their magic wasn't just made-up nonsense, it came from exactly that observation, such as why are the seas salty?
I've been curious about cuckoo rituals.
I eat bugs whenever I feel ill 😅
