    One of legends in Burma said there were 2 brothers named byattwi and byatta. They came along with their father and unfortunately their ship was somehow kaputt and people found them in their ship on a shore in southern Burma. When a historian cross check their names with foreign origin He found out these could be Bjorg thor and bjorg wilm.

    I read somewhere that there are more statues of the Buddha in the world than any other figure real or myth.

      Buddha is the only prophet whose bones have been exhumed and identified. All religion were created as a response to Buddhism. Because Buddha called for a ban psychotropic substances & the enslavement of women. This triggered a massive hate for him. That's why all religions were created by inverting the five sacred principles of Buddha. These newly created religions promoted psychotropic substances, enslavement of women, lies, stealing & violence as sacred virtues. These same people pilfered Buddhist icons, language, sciences, places of worship. They created a religion that centred around the oppression of enslaved Buddhist warriors/royals. And they created myths for the sole purpose of dehumanizing the enslaved Buddhist and the justification given was that they are children of demonic fictional character that they created. Our great kings were made into demons, and their mothers were portrayed as promiscuous.it's currently the biggest ongoing psychological operations in India. Countless tv anchors, movie directors, historians, politicians, teachers, ministers all are engaged in a massive promotion campaigns to spread the fake history that was created to justify Aryan rule.

    Este un scop dificil de atins sa reconstituim in amanunt istoria vechilor scandinavi stiintific si pe baza de dovezi atat scrise in documente cat si arheologice. Miturile si povestile unora sau altora mai mult sau mai putin bine intentionate si bine documentate vor interfera cu munca stiintifica a Dvs. Sper sa indepartati cat se poate speculatiile sa gasiti raspunsuri cat mai exacte. Succes!

      Hmmm...I believe you're referring to the statue in the second part of the video since Helgö is extremely close to Birka and a forerunner to the trading hub. Or did you mean a different one? If so I am not aware of a second example.

      it does on the superficial level but the cultural context is definitely Celtic, the artistic patterns are widespread in the region

      @irinaskuld yes, and do we know celts had no "buddas"/ whise men? A very interesting subject, I think. Perhaps the elephant in the room is the rather unknown old indoeuropean religion.

    Those people shown are definitely Turkic nomads. Snorri Sturluson has stated clearly about who Odin was and where he came from. He came from the Turks' lands. It's their faces and it's their habit of sitting with their legs crossed we see here. Look at any picture of the Kazakh nomads, old pictures of the Kazakhs, or new ones of the still nomadic Kazakhs living in Mongolia or China, and you'll see that its typical of them to sit cross-legged. Many things described or mentioned in the Scandinavian Sagas, we, Kazakhs and other Turkic peoples, have them, too. E.g. the World Tree, Odin himself (in the genealogies), his having drunk from a Spring of Eternal Life, his bad eyesight (we even use the word for 'eye', köz, to denote a spring too), his preference to be disguised as an old long-bearded wanderer (we have Qydyr Ata), his two wolves and two ravens (these are our historical totems, especially of the Uisun tribe, they have a legend about how their ancestor was saved by a she-wolf and a crow, as a child, and a figure was found of a man with two wolves and two crows or ravens beside him in the south of Kazakhstan, its also the legend of the Ashina dynasty of the Turk Kaghanate; Ashina must be the Uisuns themselves), etc. Those notions were actually brought to Europeans by our ancestors who became their rulers, as S.Sturlusson wrote. And the same is true of the King Arthur and some Greek legends and heros.There is a work by a European who says that even genetics proves that the Vikings were Turkic. Moreover, Buddha himself was from Central Asia, and a Saca nomad. There is a film here on YT in Russian "Мудрец из рода Сака" ("A Saca Sage") that proves it. Sacas were not Iranians, they were Turkic peoples. The Iranian theory has never given any proofs, and is just given by scholars as an axiome. Because the European historiography is very politicised, uses double standards in trying to steal or hide the history of the Turkic peoples, who ruled and influenced most of Eurasian peoples for thousands of years. Real lovers of history, please, take the information I wrote here into account.

      Sorry but no, no connection whatsoever. I will make a separate video to clarify the supposed Asia connection - to put it briefly it's a trope for medieval Christian authors in their quest to provide historical explanations and thus turn the pagan gods more human in order to dismiss them. As for genetics I can only laugh about it. I agree European historiography has been politicized but that doesn't mean giving in to whatever speculative rubbish put forward by non-specialists.

      And Snorri also said that Odin and the Aesir came from the region around the Black Sea on the eastern side of the river Tanais in the Ynglinga Saga
