    Fearsome, violent, and romanticized, to this day the Vikings of the Middle Ages command our attention. Even children’s movies have taken up the Viking banner. What do we know about their history? The legacy of their exploits? After the Vikings plundered northern Europe, what happened to them? A thousand years after the peak of their power, do any of their descendants roam Europe? The Americas? Could you be related to them? Tune in to find out!

    I think Christianity was the ultimate conqueror of pagan Viking customs. True Christianity is always the ultimate conqueror of pagan cultures, because the mercy, light, and gentleness conquers the normal human desire to have a lifestyle of violent self- will and worship of mere human beings and false gods. Jesus said He would build His church, and the gates of hell would not prevail against it. He has, and continues to conquer hopelessness. One day He will throw even Death and Hell into the bottomless pit forever.

      In what world history course did you get the idea that Christian Expansion over pagan cultures was even slightly “merciful, light, or great”? Cultures that had already accepted Christianity over pagan pantheons during the Viking age specifically were just as brutal and violent. Everyone during the dark ages was. Read a book. Christianity beat out because it was a mostly unified religion and not a mixed tapestry of clan beliefs. Many pagan societies accepted God into their beliefs and into their already existing pantheon. After that it was inevitable that the Church would squash the Polytheism from the cultural norm.

      The Vikings did go everywhere. They conquered England in 1066 after conquering Normandy, moved to Siciliu and conquered the holy land in the first crusade (not your typical knights, Vikings in knight armor sponsored by Urban II because they were still pillaging and taking concubines up and down the English strait). They’re also the first Russians, Rus comes from the red in their beards, and later founded Quebec and many settlements down the Mississippi, including New Orleans and Louisiana. As well as Iceland, Greenland. Just a fascinating history, their boats and mythology took them everywhere

    One possible motivation for Goths and others from Scandinavia to migrate could be volcanic activity in Iceland causing severe conditions.

    • @davidcolby7641
      @davidcolby7641 Год назад

      We have dates for those migrations, and there would be ample data for volcanism, were it the cause. We have massive amounts of data on Mt St Helens, Pinatubo, and Krakatoa, and the weather patterns effected by them. For Iceland to have emitted sufficient ash to effect mass migrations out of Scandinavia would have left massive deposits. But the volcanism of Iceland is not shield type (as the majority of the Pacific rim volcans are) and that amount of volcanic activity would have been easily identified.

    • @wild13hawk
      @wild13hawk Год назад +1

      Yeah, so I was just throwing out ideas, guys. Keep in mind science can't answer every question definitively; for instance, a volcanic source is generally agreed as being the cause of the Worst Year Ever, 536 A.D., but nobody has found any evidence of where it may have happened. Also, one group's tragedy (or reason for moving out) could be another's opportunity. And maybe I missed something, but I mentioned Goths, not Vikings; but see my previous thought. Try exploring ideas with people instead of automatically shutting them down, please. And even though we have tons of data from contemporary events, there are far too many variables to consider when trying to analyze limited evidence from past events to state absolutely what happened in the past. Without reliable first-hand witnesses, it can only be presented as, at best, widely-held theories.

    The Vikings did trade with the Muslem, one of the suspected prove was the Elfburge swords buried with some of them. A very expensive weapon (been widely copied even in 800AD) only carried by Vikings with clouts among their people. Those swords were made around 800AD with what is now known as crucible steel, a very pure metal. That technology was lost for 1000 years , to be rediscovered around 1800s.I believe humans evolved from apes/monkeys in central Africa, we share 95%+ of their DNAs My Chinese last name translate literally into Woods.(Forest) Therefore I suspect my distance ancestors went to North Africa then turned right and ended up in China and later on America with the land bridge (frozen) which once exist? Another group went north to Europe and some became Vikings. I regard those last named Woods as distance relatives.

      He finally began, towards the very end, to speculate that he thinks that people in Europe with Viking ancestry, who were alive at the time of the Black Death, ( bubonic plague,) were more susceptible to dying from the plague, than people in Europe at that same time, who had central Asian ancestry... He said that Because the plague came from Central Asia, maybe people descended mainly from Central Asia
      had a greater natural l resistance to the Black Death...., as opposed to Europeans with genetic heritage from areas OTHER than Central Asia. Which he is saying COULD explain why fewer Viking descendants made it past the black death period in Europe, to continue having kids into the next time periods.. and why more of the people who made it to North America from north and west parts of Europe, in the great immigration period of the 1800' s, passed on genes traceable to central Asia.... if one looks at the fathers' DNA chromisome for MANY generations, and not just a few generations. It's not surprising, when you stop to realize that , as he has stated elsewhere, ancestry tests generally show a few generations back, or that's the most that people know about their families. The Central Asian plateau is enormous, and it's been known for thousands of years as the crossroads of the world. Less extreme climate zones in much of it, etc, etc. I remember that we were taught in the 1960' s that the Fertile Crescent was the cradle of civilization, and that's what the Old Testament states as well. Mesopotamia, " the Land between the Rivers". Is connected very thoroughly to Central Asia. ( For example, I have German and English ancestry. It's all I ever thought back to, so here, I am learning that there is a good possibility that my MORE distant ancestry would reveal ties to the areas to the east and perhaps south of what we now call western and northern Europe. Sounds logical to me!! People have been moving all over planet earth for many centuries for all kinds of reasons! Imo, Dr. Jeanson is just telling us there are more foundational layers than most people realize. I think his work is yet another of today's great research projects by honest scientific people, many of whom happen to be Bible- believing Christians. ... showing that the Bible is worthy of our faith because it is indeed factual.

    Just thought I'd watch this to see what they would attempt. As a person with a degree in history, all I can say is this is a clear demonstration of what happens when one allows a person completely ignorant of basic European history attempt to explain "the Downfall of the Vikings" (spoiler alert - they never get to a "downfall" of any kind). Just a few major bloopers:
    1. The slide put up at 2:25 is pure bunk..."nationalities" in Europe remain in place often for thousands of years. Genetic trees are not nationalities.
    2. The picture at 3:45 is not a "viking" ("viking" is a verb, by the way, not a noun - no one at the time called themselves a "viking." They were Danes, Norse, Swedes, Geats, etc who "went viking" for part of the year). Just lazy use of google for pictures.
    3. Pic at 7:30 is even worse - cosplay apparently. It's like we're not even trying here.
    4. The Scandinavians who raided across Europe, and eventually settled in parts of it, never "ruled Europe" and were never an "empire," that's simple nonsense. The Danes invaded England, were eventually defeated by the Saxons and incorporated into the Saxon kingdom. A later invasion led to a brief period of a united Danish/English kingdom, which split again. The Saxons again ruled in England until the Norman Conquest - the Normans were descendants of a different Scandinavian group, by 1066 they were French-speaking, Catholic, Norman-French. What we now call France (West Frankia at the time) was ruled by descendants of Charlemagne until a nobleman named Hugh Capet was elected in 987 and began the Capetian dynasty. What we now call Germany (East Frankia at the time) was also ruled by descendants of Charlemagne until Henry the Fowler, the Duke of Saxony, was elected king in 919, beginning what would be known as the Ottonian dynasty.
    5. Kievan Rus was conquered by the Mongols in 1241. Most of the people there were of Slavic ancestry, the Swedish "Rus" were never more than a ruling veneer that quickly mixed in with the rest of the population (Scandinavians had a tendency to do that, like most conquerers and settlers do). The link from them to the realm of the Muscovite Tsars that began expanding into central Asia three centuries later is indeed a tenuous reed to grasp.
    6. The Crusades were not a "movement of peoples." It was a military invasion, very few settlers and for that matter always way too few soldiers.
    7. At 15:00 "I'm not convinced that the Goths, Vandals etc are of central Asian origin." Of course they're not. All of these peoples, from the Goths in the south to the Norse in Norway, were branches of Germanic people...same root language, same religion, same basic culture. This is a mystery to no one except AiG. All of these groups started as much smaller "tribes," that collected into larger and larger groups mainly under Roman pressure. The Saxons, for example, are the descendants of the smaller north Germanic tribes (the Chatti, Marsi, Cherusci, etc) who fought of the Romans in the years 9-14.
    The "vikings" began raiding in Europe largely because of opportunity - the Saxon kingdoms were disunited and fighting among themselves, the Frankish empire in what is now France and Germany was coming apart and torn by a series of civil wars, the Magyars and Arabs were raising hell from the east and south at the same time. Once the Frankish, German, and Saxon kingdoms got their acts together, the "vikings" were subdued, the Scandinavian kingdoms accepted Christianity and joined the rest of European society. Thus the "viking" peoples did not "disappear," we don't have to go on a genetic fishing expedition to find them - they're still there, they just stopped using longships and bearded axes. I mean, this is elementary stuff.
    Now, I'm not enough of an expert to deal with the genetics he's proposing, but given what he's done with basic history, I'm pretty confident he's making a hash of that too...which one would expect when one tries to shoehorn real genetics and genuine history into an "everything starts with Noah" mythological model.

    Sorry, Doc Jaensen. I appreciate your work and think you are on the right track, but Haplogroup I is from Central Asia (Dagestan) and spread through Europe. This lineage was overtaken by R1b with the spread of Indo-European languages and peoples. Haplogroup I virtually disappeared from Europe except in Scandinavia. The R1a and R1b in Europe ARE the Indo-European peoples of Europe that spread to the Americas. There are Yamnaya (Indo-European) graves in the Pontic Steppe that already have R1b. The Huns, Magyars and Mongols pushed R1b West. According to ancient DNA studies, most R1a and R1b lineages would have expanded from the Caspian Sea along with the Indo-European languages. When you look at the Table of Nations in Gen 10, all those Japhethite nations are Indo-European peoples. An origin N of the Caucasus makes sense. There is such low frequency of R1b and R1a in Mongol and Turkic populations, it is more likely that the Mongols picked some up when they were in Eastern Europe than the other way around.

  • @svennielsen633
    @svennielsen633 Год назад

    I am not so sure that you are right. First of all: Finns are not Scandinavian from a linguistic point of view. Thus it is questionable to use them for genetic evidence. British and French only have a limited trace of Scandinavian, since Germans (Saxons) also invaded England. Iceland can be assumed to reflect Norway to a certain point, but also British and Irish migration.
    Also, I doubt if you are right about why "I" is less common than R1a (which goes back to 2.500 BC and stems from the Indo-European migration from the Uralic steppes and associated with Battle Axe culture). The simple reason why R1a is more common is that these were male invaders who married local women thus cutting down the share of local male men to perhaps 50%. Since Denmark has at least 3 migration groups into the country (forest hunters, farmers, herders or battle axe-people) that alone can explain why the I-chromosome group is less than half the population.
    In short: not convincing. More proof is needed to convince me.

    Hi ! I wonder why you always pronounce the world viking as you do! VIK = means bay and is pronounced “veek. I have actually worked a couple of weeks at a small place in Norway, a bay, and the places name was VIK. There is a very old stave church there and the patients in the elderly home where I worked, had the same second name as you could see in the very old cemetery!
    I also can’t understand how it’s believed that people managed do walk through dense forest and very much snow, from Asia to the Americas through Bering Sund, as it would have been so much easier to navigate on the sea streams, from Asia to the Americans! I like to take long walks in the forest but that’s quite impossible during the snow period! In the north of Scandinavia! (I know the Sami people manage in a way).
