HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 мар 2024
- The Persian Gulf is just the flooded part of Tigris/Euphrates rivers valley.
During the last glacial period, it was a flood plain like the modern Iraqi one.

It makes much sense that there's a great flood myth in Mesopothamia now. The region experienced sea level raisings in recent millenia
And, they said that it happened 7680 years ago before Sumer (3800BC). So, (~11,000BCE).
@@Normal_user_conivenThat’s probably a myth, since they had no way of keeping accurate information for that long. Also, in 11000 BCE, the sea levels were ~75 meters lower than they are today
@@secretarchiveofabobabasein1908 There's a flood in the region that would become the sea south of Sumer that is from 4th millennium BCE, not that long before the cities of Ur and Uruk were built
You also have to consider how extremely flood prone the rivers in that area are. Considering the incredibly wide reach of flood myths I'm sure that they have their roots in deep cultural memory of sea level changes but in Mesopotamia at least the flooding of the rivers probably played a part as well.
You also have to bear in mind that a great flood is mentioned in almost all mythologies, even in South America. So either there was a severe flood as soon as Homo sapiens emigrated from Africa, which was so severe that it has been passed down orally for thousands of years, or severe floods are simply part of the "normal" disasters that Homo sapiens have experienced throughout history.
Oh so that's why everyone has a great flood story
It probabky inspired the middle eastern ones, in other parts of the world it was different events.
I like The Black Sea hypothesis myself
Deep in the collective human memory are distorted fragments of these deluges which followed the end of the last ice age. Everywhere from Mesopotamia to China the stories remain of survivors who moved inland with the rising water.
Very nice work. Especially liked the inclusion of the mass human migrations which happened every 20-30 thousand years.
Thinking the last 10 seconds are all of human written history really puts things in perspective
All of this time featured humans. You are thinking of the agricultural revolution we know.
@@robertjarman3703 yep, pretty much. that's why I said written history, writing is a relatively recent invention n all
Thanks , we need to see evolution of Tigris and Euphrates also
I really wonder what the Strait of Hormuz looked like during those absolute lowest sea levels, with a (presumably) giant river delta and rich swamp flanked by the deep inlets of the Musandam peninsula, which almost seem like they might have been filled in with swamplands as well. Considering that those are ria formations too, I imagine at that time things may not have even been quite so oppressively dry at least in that little bit.
It will return again. There is a hadith about the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, 1400 years ago, saying that the Arab land will return to meadows and rivers.
Awesome! Can you do for the Adriatic Sea
Technically related, but would the existence of Beringia above land cause a supercontinent consisting of the Americas, Africa, and Eurasia?
Indeed, the world was a supercontinent
That is very cool
Realistically, the world should still be considered a supercontinent, the border between the North American and Eurasian plates is situated pretty deep into Russia in the Chersky range. Definitions of past supercontinents seem to ignore the presence of epicontinental seas so to keep things consistent it makes sense for the present too, especially considering that it periodically is dry land. Camellids are a great illustration of the supercontinental nature of our current world geography, they originated in North America (later to be wiped out by humans) and walked to South America, Eurasia, and Africa to become Llamas and Alpacas, and Bactrian and Dromedary camels. And then of course the very isolated continents of Australia and Zealandia along with some other isolated microcontinents contain very unique biologies compared to the rest which are connected (and Antarctica is too inhospitable to contain much of anything).
@@KaldistiOh you didn’t you d-😂🤣
Except australia and antarctica.
I bet you put a lot of effort to do these interesting videos. You deserve being subscribed! 😁
Love these videos Kaldisti is a mastermind:)
Hey, can you please make a climate history video for Vancouver, Canada?
Very cool. I think it would be neat to see a moving shoreline map like this for the Mississippi river delta. 😊
you should do the White Sea Next!
Super video, its absolutely fascinating to see that the sea level was actually higher that current one, thats actually what I always wanted to know, is todays sea level the highest we ever had, or was it even higher at some points in history, this shows it was.
I from an island in Adriatic that used to be mountain top during ice age. Its fascinating to know that my island was a mountain then island again, and then mountain, back and forth, so cool, if you could do Adriatic Sea, or Mediterranean in general, that would be great
Sea level was even 300 meters above the current one at Cretaceous era x)
@@Kaldisti That is just crazy, thank you, Im intrigued now even more, gonna have to research little bit, I really hope you make a video about that😀
Btw the video you made about asteroid impact was absolutely unique, i watched it several times, keep up the good work
@@gate8475Well, the earth was hotter and the shape the continents were in thanks to continental drift must have made this " nonsense " happen.
With all the models you have generated, have you ever considered an expansion/subduction model?
I don't have the skill for this, but I'd like so much to
It’s believed this is where the Garden of Eden was located but idk i wasn’t there
Is there any study on the changes of sea level of the Niger Delta?.
I found this :
Evolution of the Niger Delta Margin during the Late Pleistocene-Holocene: New palynological evidence (2015)
by : Onema Adojoh, Fabienne Marret, Robert A. Duller, Peter Osterloff
Next time think about the timeline of the messinian salinity crisis, it would be interesting to see the climate and flooding simulations.
Would it be possible to animate the glaciation of most of Greenland around 2.6 million years ago?
Based on the article "Reconstructing the evolution of ice sheets, sea level, and atmospheric CO2 during the past 3.6 million years", it looks like it might be possible to create an animation of the Greenland ice sheet up to 3.6 million years ago and show the process of how most of Greenland got glaciated during that period of time.
Also hoping the Lost Worlds #5 is on Doggerland :)
Make an In Real Time Simulation video for the Deniliquin Impact Crater in Australia.
It's 520 KM wide, bigger than the Vredefort Impact Crater in size, and 417 - 525 Million Years old.
Studies into it began in 2022 and the Deniliquin Impact Site was announced late last year in 2023.
Can you make an Aitken impact real time scenario on Earth?
There is a hadith about the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, 1400 years ago, who said that the land of the Arabs would return to meadows and rivers
We really need a new impact in real time video
why are the name of the rivers written in a weird way?
In Arabic.
Tigers and Euphrates in arabic
دجلة والفرات
in north corner
and small rivers "valleys today" in the south
Please do Zealandia
How about floods in East asia
He already made a video on Sundaland
One day !
request glaciation of the new guinea(papua)
already did (Sahul)
Imagine your fish in that river and you see water just forming sround you
Why aren't the Zagros mountains all given white spots because of glaciation? The Zagros mountains should be high enough to form glaciers in the ice age
yeah cold enough but definitely too dry in this area
So that’s where the great flood story comes from
no
There is a big difference between a river flood and a global flood. In addition, the story of the flood appeared throughout
The world whether it collapses or not.
The last point is that the texts of ancient civilizations that mentioned the Flood mentioned two important points. The first is the timing of the Hadith of the Flood, which coincided with the timing of
One in the whole world. The second is that all humans died in the flood and remained
a very small number.
There cannot be separate stories about several floods
Collapsed around the world.
Noahs flood?
Noah's flood was global and in one moment, as the Qur'an says, and anyone who tries to link this matter to a river bursting is wrong
The great flood of noah is real?
rapid sea level rise probably was the origin myth of the Flood indeed
@@Kaldisti nah I think it happened in the black sea Bc the ark of noah is in turkey
Saudi Syria Iran Uae Qatar bahrain oman kuwati vs ocean 🌊🗿
most southern part of Iraq also
maybe thats a origin of the great flood myth
So why is it widespread among all civilizations when there are cultures that did not live near rivers and see a flood and talk about the myth of a flood?

ngl when oil arc is the worst part of the series
خلیج فارس
persian gulf❤❤
الخليج العربي وليس الخليج الفارسي حتى سكان جنوب إيران على المناطق المطلة على الخليج العربي هم من العرب الأحواز وليس من الفرس
Persian Gulf has never been called "Arabian" gulf, history and truth can not be changed by oil money
They are both different names for the same thing, we shouldn’t make a fuss over it, nobody is mad.
@@RealStalin you cant change Arabian gulf name with the fake Iranian history
@@RealStalin أنت جاهل وأحمق إسمه الحقيقي منذ فجر التاريخ الخليج العربي منذ زمان السومريين القديمة من أطلق عليه إسم الخليج الفارسي هو الإسكندر المقدوني وكان غريب عن المنطقة حتى الفرس في العصور القديمة كانو يسمونه الخليج العربي أو خليج البصرة صديقي العزيز إقراء التاريخ جيدا واضح أنك شخص أحمق وجاهل فتعلم قبل أن تتكلم وإلى فاصمت
persian gulf❤🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷
Obnoxious music
wonder how many ruins are hidden beneath the waves
Probably not a lot because humans didn't construct in that time durable building, or at least building that could not withstand large presence of water
Next: Evolution of Baltic Sea.
He’s done several videos on the effects of the ice age on Europa with Baltic included.
