The Dark Truth Behind Artemis
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 ноя 2023
- Artemis, if you don't know anything about her, then know this: There is no Lara Croft without Artemis. There is no Princess Mononoke without Artemis. There is no Wonder Woman without the Greek Goddess of the hunt and the moon, because Artemis was simply that influential. She was the original female boss, and every aspect of this goddess is mind-blowingly fascinating... and shocking. I mean... you saw the thumbnail, and... I wasn't exaggerating: Artemis really did get her hands dirty, but all of that came with the territory: As the goddess of the hunt, the moon, of women, children, animals and the forest - Artemis had a lot of responsibilities, and as you might have already learnt throughout my videos: Every god that is in charge of something good, is also in charge whenever the opposite happens: If you rule over health, you also rule over disease - that's why people pray to you, for the bad not to happen. This is true for Artemis and women, Artemis and animals, and... also for Artemis and children. And that's where parts of her story take a bit of a turn into the dark and unexpected, but... you'll see all that now, in today's episode:

Notes:
So I already touched on one thing above: I am aware that Artemis (or any of the Greek gods for that matter) does not make it a habit to go out of her way and be evil. I am aware that these dark stories serves as tales to remind us to pray to the gods, but still... they are stories depicting the gods doing horrendous thing and I'm looking at all of this from a storyteller's point of view. With that in mind, do also remember that mythology is a very tough puzzle to piece together, because all of these stories are thousands of years old. With Greek Mythology, we are lucky because the Athenians prided themselves on documenting everything, but because of their thirst for knowledge and education, they also produced many great storytellers, and with a lot of storytelling comes a lot of embellishing and regional differences, so, over time, we ended up with a lot of variety and room for interpretation. For the sake of this video - and all my videos - I try to streamline all of these tales and versions as much as possible and leave out some details that might make the videos less fun.
So... is this accurate and well researched? Absolutely. Is this the only interpretation or way of telling you about the Artemis? No, this is my way to tell the story.
Get All My Artwork & Support The Channel:
I get a lot of questions about my artwork and where it’s from or rather who draws it. Well the answer is that I create it - I don’t draw it. I use AI to create the artwork, using specific prompts, specific style influences from 18th and 19th century artists, and I spend about 6 hours per video just on the artwork. Each video has roughly double the artwork of what you actually see in the video, so a lot of it is unused. The good news here though is that you can get all that artwork on my Patreon - the artwork I do use, and the artwork I don’t use. Plus, by subscribing to my Patreon you are making a major contribution to Briefed and helping me to keep this channel going, because this is my full time job and the survival of the channel and quality of the videos greatly depends on said support. In return for supporting, you get more than the artwork though - you also get exclusive videos and producer credit, as well as access to a producer group that gets to vote on thumbnails, gets behind the scenes etc.
If you choose to become a Patron - thank you. I do not take it for granted.

Sources:
A lot of people ask me about my sources, and… to be honest, they are a mixed bag. One major source is my lifelong interest in storytelling and mythology. Another is the beautiful endless library that is the internet, and, third, I read the occasional book from time to time, which I’m happy to recommend to you, but also… I’m planning to write my own book on mythology, so, in due time it will be…:
Source? Me. Yay.

Fun facts. It was theorised on my college class that originally, Artemis was the goddess of Wild, much older than Apollo who could be borrowed from some other nearby culture/island culture.
In short, as we know, Apollo was at first god of civilization, everything happening during the daylight, what later became god of the sun, while Artemis was goddess of everything else hapening during the nighttime. Which naturally involves nice things but also sudden death, kidnappings, and other bad stuff.
Cult of Artemis also predates cult of Apollo, even Oversimplified made video about it, look it up, what may have been turned later into story that Apollo was brother of Artemis that was born later.
Artemis was one of the cults whose origins are mostly found in the hellenistic people's own ancient origins.
Apollo is most likely the God of the Wild Hunt, akin to Fionn in Ireland, Rudra in the vedic tradition, and Odin.
Overly sarcastic. Not oversimplified.
One comment more information that a 20 min video😂 thank you❤
Amazing storytelling, you have your spin on everything. From funny to tragic and everything in between 😊
I'm so glad you got back to doing videos on the rest of the Greek pantheon.
I’ve been waiting for another greek mythology video! I love them
Right

Dude, I literally LOL'ed when you said Rudolph is coping. That alone is worth the thumbs up. Great video as usual.
had me laughing like a 5 year old kid doing armpit farts
I low key love the looks your dog is giving you
I'm literally addicted to your videos. Hoping to see videos on Egyptian gods and goddesses soon! 🔥🔥🔥
I am Orion, the Hunter and I approve this message. Artemis is a very kind and intelligent person, and there are so many lies out there about the both of us.
Remember that nothing is true unless it has been seen from many perspectives.
Thanks for being respectful.
tl;dr
Very cool.
Never had any interest in mythology before but you got me hooked❤❤ great storytelling skills man
yay 😊 that makes me happy to hear
Quickly became one of my favorite content creators. Greek mythology changed my childhood in such an awesome way and to hear you educate and put your spin on it with great editing. TOP NOTCH! BTW Rudolph's nose is red because he has a problem with the snow (wink). Gotta stay up all night piloting the fat man. lmao! Peace and love! Prosperity in 2024!

This is your best video yet! So funny!
yayyy haha thank you Alex. appreciate that
This has quickly become my favorite channel - resurrect the gods brother, I see you
Love the video man
I very much support what you are doing. Sending you power.
I love your content especially the ones with Norse Mythology. I am a Norse Pagan.
I’ve only found you recently, and I really like your videos! Are you interested in any other mythologies than Greek or Norse? I know with even just one ancient culture’s stories about their gods gives you so much content to work with, but I’d personally would be very interested to see videos in this style about different Mesopotamian or Mesoamérican myths. All the same, your work is awesome, and I look forward to seeing what you do!
I am going to incorporate egyptian mythology soon and plan to also include others as well
and happy to have you on board here Elijah 😊
Zeus be acting like Loki 😂. Great video
Excellent video! Can’t wait for Dionysus!
oh Dionysus/zagreus is gonna be a good one haha
This channel is ridiculously good
thank you Noah 🫡
You are so good at this Bruv!

Dude, you are the highlight of the week. Can’t wait for the Clytemnestra, Cassandra and Agamemnon spin-off.
Just when I thought “RUclips sucks now“ Briefed uploads. I’m on to you RUclips 😅
Also I have the bell turned on but got no notification.
appreciate it 🫡 also, death note is my favorite anime, so I love the username
This was worth watching 🖤🖤❤
Love how you made the video so funny.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Joshua 🫡
Yes! Back to Greek mythology...Wait, don't get me wrong. We love all your videos. And the video on Napoleon was legit the best and funniest I've ever seen. But Greek mythology is my shizznit
oh trust me keeping up with the greek gods is going to be running for a long, long time
I love the interesting fantasy storytelling I hear it takes my mind away from my daily stressful life .. I love the funny truth you share about the gods and the story's about mythology. And the facts you share especially with people whom do not have any knowledge about mythology thank you so much .am so happy to hear these very interesting and informational stories thank you. so much big fan.
thank you Patricia - thank you for the support and watching 😊
You’re my new fav storyteller
I'm new to your channel and I love your videos. Thank you for making me laugh, for teaching me new stuff, and for helping me to sleep!
thank you for watching and it makes me happy to hear that video makes you laugh and helps you sleep 😊🥹
When I'm able I'll definitely support your Patreon. By the way do you have any social media associated with Briefed beyond the Patreon as I'd 100% follow you on those platforms as well.
funny man always love mythology’s and you make the history funny 🔥
That’s fire bro
This was fire 🔥🔥🔥
Apollo is my favorite Greek god but Artemis is cool too.
Saw an Oda Nobunaga pic at the end. Please do a video on him! He was a real life bad ass in a bad ass warrior era.
absolutely planned 🫡
I would like it if you made a Hermes explained video 😁
hermes is planned soon. gonna drop within the next couple of weeks
Great storytelling on HH Artemis
Spitting bars man
I spit hot fire
Fr🔥
5:58 bars
I love your videos....
I just found your channel, Jan 2024, and am OBSESSED! In fact, I think I have a weird crush on your voice! I promise I’m not a stalker!
Seriously, you do a fantastic job with these videos. Is ancient mythology a personal passion? Or did you study the Classics in University? Doesn’t actually matter, you do a fantastic, and I mean, fan-fucking-tastic job; I’m just curious.😉
I hope your channel continues to grow, and thank you for providing a new voice to go to sleep listening to… and learning awesome mythological stories!
Edit for spelling😊
Thumbnail gave me goosebumps-
love the story telling as always, bit why so red on the thumbnail? your art is so good , you should go back like the first thumbnails, just my opinion ☺️☺️☺️
yup I agree. I was over experimenting with the thumbnails and trying to play the game. I'm gonna take it back to the originals and the way a I like them most
@@Briefed_Mythology yes you do you , make what makes you happy ☺️ not to please everyone 😚 your story telling and art will tell it all 😉😉
The Friday reference….. thank you lol
Bro, your channel should be and will be HUGE. It's too good not to be. I love everything about it. Thank you for such remarkable content. I'll be binging on your channel until I've seen everything at least once.
thank you man. love the username hahah actually made me laugh
Casually throwing some JayZ lyrics at the end there 😏, my guy
real recognize real
Oh I can’t wait for a vyx
Just wanted to ask, was there a version where Kalisto wae Artemis' lover? Idk but I heard it somewhere. Love your contents btw!!
hmmmm never heard of that to be honest. interesting though.
Thank you!
Could you do Phaedra?
Glad I wasn’t drinking my coffee at that 3rd ‘At Band Camp’ edit
love your qaulity
WOOHOO!!! Back to Greek mythology!
Long time no see you bro😢
I remember you talking about a anime about the Greek and Norse gods and I have just the anime for you and it isn't record of ragnarok. It's called Is it wrong to try and pick up girls in a Dungeon or for short Danmachi. Set in the fictional city Orario, DanMachi follows the life of Bell Cranel, who serves the goddess Hestia by retrieving crystal shards that can be found in the underground Dungeon by defeating the monsters that live there. In return, he grows stronger.
hmmm that sounds super interesting. sounds like it was originally a manga or manhwa rather. I prefer reading, so I'll see if I can find it
@@Briefed_Mythology well it has a light novel and a manga, I just don't know where you can read/buy it sorry
Wait, all that art is yours? Extraordinarily impressive, sir!
I do generate it with ai - I can't claim to put brush to canvas or pen to paper
3:06 “I wanna be a bad bitch” LMFAO
Finally we're back to greek mythology! Wootwoot 🎉
Do Egypt video
Do you create the artwork yourself or does someone else make it for you?
I create myself using a tool called mid journey. all the artwork is actually available on my patreon. the link to it is in the description and my profile bio
Briefed. Good video. There are four stags who feed on the bark of Yggdraail, but I'm sure you already know that. Have you had time to watch the video I suggested? It's very informative. Growing up my favorite wrestler was the undertaker. He used to dress like Odinn often.
