    I absolutely searched for this, it drove me nuts to think how bread was invented. It’s now so under appreciated, but basically it’s the base of our society.

    The Ancident Egyptians also prescribed molded bread for several bacterial-induced conditions.
    Without knowing this many millennia later the Scottish Scientist Alexander Fleming discovered/made the first antibiotic medication ever _(penicillin)_ by examining mold on bread and isolating certain parts
    Bread is awesome even when it goes bad!

    As an Egyptian-American, I must correct you on one thing you said. The builders of the pyramids were NOT slaves. Any college Egyptology class would confirm this. (Nor were they Hebrews. The pyramids were built well before Abraham was born.)

    Weird bread be like:
    “My hearts a-seized, my lungs are wheezing, the fucki’n walls are melting, I can hear Satan’s voice, he’s telling me to invest in apple, what does that mean? WHY DOES HE WANT ME TO BUY APPLES?!”

  • @kevinu.k.7042

    The first fermentation was in Iraq? Most historians say Egypt. However recent archaeology site the first bread ovens in Bulgaria at about 6500 BCE. Did the Bulgarian's ferment their loaves? Working from a photo of a flat bread abandoned near a Bulgarian Fire Pit (not oven) it seemed to me to have been fermented. It was far too thick to be consumed as an unleavened flat bread. Roughly 2-3cm thick. Can you give me a lead on the Iraq fermentation please. I am so interested in this.
    Just adding wheat got to Europe about 2000 BCE. Up until the late medieval period most cottagers had their own (? Roman style) Mills. They also used something like a Cloam oven which were certainly in use by the Viking diaspora in the Dark Ages, but the early Saxons are likely to have had such ovens too.
    Thanks for a great video.

  • @anvime739
    @anvime739 4 года назад +16

    Great video! I just want to add that the notion that women were only recollections in the Palaeolithic is outdated. More and more studies show that in many cases women hunted small prey and even big game as often as men. For example in Atapuerca (Spain) researchers found that the first cause of death in men were hunting wounds. The first cause in women was birth (for obvious reasons) but the second was also hunting wounds, showing that the majority of women there hunted big game. Another examples can be found in the actual Aka and iKung societies (hunting-gathering) where women hunt amongst their men. The have very lose gender roles and fathers participate greatly in child raising. Sadly the more contact that these tribes have with other societies the more sexist they become.

    • @TinyCloud90
      @TinyCloud90 3 года назад

      I mean it makes sense since hunting probably was the main food they got back then. So every hand was helpful. But when they started settling I guess female weren’t as much in need to go for hunting more as watching the home and other things. It’s not bad that everyone got to do what they got to do in order to survive I don’t think that they thought much about it. Except when Christianity came and dictated it.

    In the 1960's, one of my friends' father was an engineer in Richmond, Virginia, for American Machine and Foundary (AMF). He used to tell me "I'm an engineer. I design the machines that make Wonder Bread. So I know what goes into it. If you ever knew what goes into it, you would NEVER feed this to your children!" True story.

    Fantastic video!!! Bread, and rice, have both intrigued me for quite some time. Now, you should make a video on the history of rice! Rice is not mentioned in the New Testament, but I was told that that the ancient Chinese, thousands of years ago, had already consumed rice as a source of food and nutrition.
    Potato, like nuggets of gold, which is so common today, is one of the great blessings of the discovery of America back in 1492.
