@davidadams you are the best photo journalist in the world!! You are my favorite 📸 photographer ever!! You capture my heart ❤️ in every one of your journeys! Astonishing and magnificent civilizations!! I thank you for your visions of the simplicity that we all should learn from.
Excellent work David. I was particulary pleased by the beautiful occasional background musics which are real composition not some pop jingle with 3 chords, very well edited. Your work of course is more than just photography, you're an explorer, ambassador, adventurer, diplomat and artist. I particularly like to watch your diplomacy communicating with the people of the local culture without falling into stereotypes of tourist or colonialist or hegemonic anglo saxon traveller (which is actually more a reality than a stereotype for united statians and english speaking travellers generally). You have a good touch with people, although on the sober and cold side but probably justifiably cautious in this muslim environment especially with that gorgeous Lybian guide woman. I have no clue what went through her head and what her expectations were for this journey, maybe she is just a pawn, and you were very careful. The cameraman does an excellent job.
I think David and her got along really well. Shame things are so, umm, complicated there. Things sure did change after good ol’ Moamar was taken out. I wish David was still making these documentaries he was one of the best
The beauty through your lens, is just unbelievable! I am in awe of your capabilities to bring life from nothingness. A stark reality of existence-between man and sand.
The brother undoubtedly works with the father although I find it suspicious that he is able to find resources like vehicles and English speaking guides anywhere but I digress. She’s been very well educated overseas to do this very job - to interpret the local Arabic dialect and keep track of what they are doing (they being the production crew). I have no doubt she works for the Libyan government and that she’s was looking as good as she could for David’s sake without losing respect
@@chrisdooley1184 "Looking good" for the cameras too - and we did hear her story about the broken engagement and the fact that they were both single - which is a common topic for these tantalizing and suggestive episodes - we don't even know if the one "caretaker" was genuine or if he was also a "plant". It's like a movie where James Bond and Indiana Jones cross paths and their "experts" all know one another, working for various factions of the corrupt government and corrupt antiquities dealers that want to seize and then sell off whatever relics or minerals or unattended children are found.
@Chawwii i mean these tribes mishwash tahnu recorded by old egypt neighbours and some of them ruled for years like kemit before africa it as called barbarya and the famous barbary coast battle betwene america and barbary pirates and before that north africa was called libyan sreach about ancient libyans
The amount of microagressions towards Najat/Nagat (sp?) is almost unbearable... but it is an Australian man in the late 90's/early 2000's. Also, take a shot for every time this man says chariot LOL. Interesting documentary, to say the least.
I wonder if the journalist really believes that no betting is happening here. There is outright gambling, but also religious leader-approved loopholes to gambling, lending for profit, avoiding the fast and just about every mandate in Islam. Yes, Libyans love horses, but make no mistake that big money is placed on every race.
Maybe, but either way, he probably didn't want to be labeled as Islamophobic... Anytime you say something true and unflattering about anyone, it's bigotry now. 🙄
Religion is so wild, especially the misogyny doctrines in the abrahamic faiths. Everything else was beautiful, such a rich and amazing history in the region.
I'm a Libyan woman, and Islam makes my life easier. I don't even have to work because my dad , husband, and brother will give me money and pay for me what ever I want , and if I want to work, no problem. We drive cars and go out whenever we want, and we study and work, and all of this is by our choice. We are not forced to work and pay taxes Like you, hijab protects us from eyes of mans for not becoming a single mom like what happens in your countries @shldnfr
@@Libyan2222you want to live like this okay agreed that Islam can be okay. But for women who want to achieve something great and want to be self dependent, Islam is not compatible
what truly puzzles me. is the need to see a picture of a Chariot in a part of the Romans empire. I don't see how an automobile is different truly. If they reached the ends of the British empire, the Roman wall in Britannia it very much seems inevitable, wherever the horse less carriage Chariot goes the horse carriage Chariot once did. They still like their camels.... way out where they don't act roman or British or European. I mean it just seems like a common sense thing... but I suppose.... nothing is common sense these days.
Islam destroyed nothing 😂. Christianity destroyed everything when it came to North Africa our ancient pagan culture clashed with Christianity we kicked it out.
Worst documentary iv ever watched. He made two unbelievable mistakes in the first 4 minutes. Firstly he clearly forgot that Egypt was named long before Libya as was Carthage. Then he stated that Libya had the longest Mediterranean coastline. Greece has far more actually seventh in the world and Algeria even had a longer coastline. Find a new job quick
No your wrong, what he said is true Libya as the name is so much older than Eygpt, All of north Africa was referred to as Libya and Libya does have the longest African mediterranean coastline..
@JUVENTUS299 Dear Sir, I apologise if you didn't understand me, but I am not one bit clueless regarding what is today referred to as Libya. Firstly, Libya is NOT mentioned in the Torah, as Christians and Jews correctly refer to the Torah as the 1st five books of the Bible. You are obviously referring to 1st Chronicles chapter 1, which is the Tanak, not the Torah, and Libya is not mentioned. Rather, the name Puth, which is the same area. secondly, Libya or in Greek (Lubna) meaning lion, was the coast of almost all of North Africa, all across the maghreb m and not just Libya today, which was called that by the Italian's in 1934 when they colonised the country in 1934. Thirdly, you stated that your Arab ancestors lived there, which is absolutely wrong. It was inhabited by berbers and phoenicians. The umayyad caliphate ( Arabs ) didn't conquer the region until the 640s. You are the one who needs to understand your historical facts. It was known as Tripolatania and Cyrenica, cities in the region. In fact, Simon, the man who helped Christ, carry his Cross in the New Testament was actually from Cyrene. Ramses the second didn't actually write the name Libya on his inscription but you need to research the truth that the most of North Africa west of the river Nile was referred to as phut, lubna, or punic hence the reference to the punic wars. Please don't go around insulting people and calling them clueless unless you know for a fact that they are wrong. I'm sorry if you didn't respect my opinion on the documentary, but I found it to be rather poor and unfactual. God bless you

The history of Libya is very ancient and ancient. Greetings from Leptis Magna
What a wonderful piece of work.
My favorite episode so far
I think David and her got along really well. Shame things are so, umm, complicated there. Things sure did change after good ol’ Moamar was taken out. I wish David was still making these documentaries he was one of the best
She probably prefers black men
What year was this series filmed?
Around 1999-2000
E1b1b. My haplo and subclade. Meshwesh, amazigh or berbere ancient. Best regards from Brazil!
You're an Amazigh ! So am I . It means "free man" in tamazight language.

That doesn’t mean anything you’re Brazilian.
May I have your contact .
I have a friend who is interesting of your origin and he is collecting such results
Please contact me .

A stark reality of existence-between man and a beautiful woman 👩 😊
It looks really neat but man its a shame now because Libya isn't safe to travel to as of now. 😐
This isn’t true
@@hahsvehsghevsusgw8894No flights into Libya from America..✈✈ But its safe
It is safe not as bad as we see in media
When was this recorded?
Damn didn’t know Gordon Ramsay was doing documentaries in the 90s .
😂😂😂😂
My great country 🇱🇾 🇱🇾 ❤❤
This man's flirting skills are on point
I invite everyone to learn about Islam. Don’t assume Islam is the way it is portrayed negatively in media.
😂😂😂
It's a lot worse than it is portrayed in the media. People are afraid to tell the truth because they may be killed.
I learned about Islam, after experiencing the murders in France and Belgium: It is a fake religion, a bad sect
Islam is EXACTLY WHAT WE SEE IN THE MEDIA!
All religions are made by people. Including Islam.
😂😂😂😂😂 9:47 9:49 9:54 10:00 Oh man, even in a dream you won't get it, and no one will believe that Najat is a real Libyan.
Well this old Kadhaffi has been gone since what 2011? Libya has been chaos ever since, run by three? different warlords
All Obama's fault
There's a reason why Libya still have warrants out on Obama, Biden, Rice and Hillary Clinton for their war crimes against humanity there.
These are basically lies
WOW.
@13:40 Adult brother and sister can leave their jobs and families for two weeks ... very suspicious.
So people can't take a vacation?
@@barbieblues7639 A brother and sister simultaneously take a vacation together and she looks like a beauty queen for two weeks in the desert?

What are you implying?
How did people forget? The past
We all know they want each other,she's gorgeous and she knows it and so does he 😋🥰
I think ancient Berbers or the ethnic group that gave birth to them

There’s no misogyny in Islam

I'd buy all the camels and create a sanctuary. What a shit world to be born in as an animal.
Documentary had some anti Islamic propaganda
@@hahsvehsghevsusgw8894 Good. We need to get rid of Islam.

So beautiful in the old days. Islam came and destroyed everything! Just like in babylonia and Egypt.
