Unboxing The Old World; The First Photographs of Egypt, Africa (1850-1870) by Francis Frith
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 мар 2024
- Howdy ya’ll. Today we will look at over one hundred highly detailed images of Egypt, with a handful of images of other, more southern parts of Africa, dated to the years 1850 through 1870. These photographs come from the collections of Francis Frith, one of the most decorated photographers of the 19th century.
Frith accumulated over 330,000 unique negatives in his lifetime, with his most prestigious images coming from his travels abroad. In today’s collection we will see numerous outstanding monuments of Egypt photographed for the first time in history. We will also discover a few Old World Stereoscopic images, as well as a few images seemingly taken from Balloon or Dirigible.
Overall, this is one of the most complete, one of the most detailed, one of the most sought after collections of Old World images I have ever come across. We will see Egypt in the earliest photographs of that landscape. The link for the full album will be included below. Enjoy!

One of the many things that are sticking in these photographs is how clean the world was... No garbage...
Everything was made from the earth and recycled back to the earth. So cool...yes I'm old so cool is a word.
@@mommy6671You're cool!
Yeah they had no water bottles so they had to sew camel stomachs together.
It's almost like no one went to certain places because the land was toxic for so long it was forgotton
We kill ourselves with PLASTIC!
Almost speechless. Makes me wonder how many cataclysms mankind has been through. Stunning, Thank You!!
This video was very interesting after making it speechless (mute).
Many of those ancient buildings were built by the Israelites.
Most say five before us
Every 12,000 years . . . and we are due for another in the NEXT 20 YEARS.

I'll always remember how seeing the familiar "Egyptian" monuments buried in sand struck me for the first time. Really puts things into perspective.
They'd been dug up for our benefit/Europeans , the locals couldn't give a toss until they realised we'd turn up with cash / gold coins to see stuff...if we didnt they'd be buried deep under sand still .
I truly believe that these structures are more ancient than currently dated. 20- 50 thousand years old. Maybe not all, but definitely some of the sites.
Amazing, love how some and most of the nose was still in place on Sphinx’s. Later the nose was removed to hide a true African appearance. Just like any leading faction who is running the society, these people would want to rewrite or claim History in the fashion they perceive. This is why in such a short time , it could easily take on an appearance preferred.
The old photos are amazing. Thank you!!!
Every time I see photos of these buildings, I wonder - what happened? And then I start to wonder why the system wants us to know nothing about it so much?
Agreed but I also ask in a time of incr online control over content to avoid misinformation incl YT why is certain info made avail/ OK to post publicly and why now? This isn’t about Jarid his videos no matter beliefs are amazing.
@@jmc8076 A dozen or so years ago, these collections lost their copyrights and could be published. That's the only reason we can watch them. But censorship is still strong. In my country, the owner is not allowed to dig up anything, a maximum of 50 cm and that's it, there is a ban and a fine. There are probably a lot of artifacts underground and they are afraid that people will discover the lie. In Poland, where Rome supposedly did not exist, Roman coins and Roman bronze ornaments often come out of the ground. For example. Half of Poland is on desert-like sand, but there are a lot of pine trees planted on this sand and you can't see it. But all you need to do is dig a small hole and the sand is 20-30 cm under the trees.
Alvin Toffler discussed this in the last of his trilogy made up of "Future Shock," "Third Wave," and"Power Shift." I'm not sure very many people made it to the third book as they are all pretty dense, but essentially his thesis is that there are three forms of power: money, violence and information. The people don't have access to the first two, but can have in the third. He says information can free the people and so at some point there will be a time of great information (this is "Third Wave," of the so-called Information Age) in which there will be a battle for the information, which is what we are living through now. It's moving very quickly as anyone who is even remotely familiar with the internet can attest to. I would argue that the people are losing the battle because they really aren't aware it's happening.
It's quite interesting that Toffler published this before the internet came into common usage (it was published in about 1990, thus he would have been writing it in the late 80's).
Definitely an awesome question yeah how come???
because most of it is a fabrication and projections thereof
Almost too much for my mind to see. Amazing and wonderful. Thank you.
This compilation is a treasure, thank you and looking forward for more!
Always intriguing...
Thanks for sharing n' God bless
Little known fact to many is that in the clean up of some sites they was sediment of salt water ,thatnever talk about . Amazing to see how high up the mud ,rubble goes . I noticed on one of the last images the darkening on stone at least 12 ft high . They wouldn't be many in the areas at the times of photo just local villagers i presume small groups . Interesting to see them.before so much was altered . Many rodsbwith balls on some of the building tops .
Thanks yet again.. music is so pretty. Such buildings and monuments on dirt. I love watching these but I always feel sad.. I think it’s Grief about what was and how interest was lost, abandoned, built over? 😢
The main question is, where does all the destruction came from?
The creation is more interesting to me.
colonisation ?
Many wars over many years.
"They", the wicked who tried to destroy our true history. The narrative taught publicly is atrocious! Was bombed evidently.
Fact is there’s speculation, many theories w/some degree of evidence but no one knows for sure. No definitive proof yet. Stay open minded but with healthy skepticism. Student vs follower.
Danke für deine Tollen Beiträge..die Warheit schmerzt aber kann nur etwas gute bewirken..mache bitte weiter so..danke danke danke..❤
The whole collection is so important. ❤❤❤
why? no more important than any other people or times or now.
@@standingbear998 We are all important that's true. But the hidden truth of history needs special attention. We have all been hurt by the wicked. I for one look forward to when rightous people get their reward.
Revelation 11:18 "But the nations became wrathful, and your own wrath came, and the appointed time came for the dead to be judged and to reward your slaves the prophets and the holy ones and those fearing your name, the small and the great, and to bring to ruin those ruining the earth.”
This was amazing. So many places I've never heard of, or seen photos of. Keep up the good work my friend!
It would have been amazing traveling anywhere before 1900.. hardly any people around and all this old world stuff everywhere!
My first time seeing your channel. I remember several of these photos from national geographic back in the 70's. Where I fell in love with Egypt, you can sure see the destruction God placed on Egypt. Great job putting these together. I've subscribed.
Welcome, and thank you for your kind words 🙏
thank you sooooo much for sharing this with us.
Pause. Excellent bro. Good timing ,good flow, great choice of music!
Excellent collection presented!
These are not Kodak moments... these photographs are stunning. Thank you for your work. God bless you.
Thanks. Your work really helps researchers like myself come across lost images we didn’t know about. Keep it up.
My friend... really amazing..
Amazing photos
I have to imagine how it really looked, in color
The great pylon in upper Egypt looks HUGE. Truly amazing photographs, thanks for sharing.
Fantastic photographic quality.
What cataclysms occurred to create such utter destruction?! Some structures look like they were directly hit by explosive
and torching/scorching weapons. Some, and the ground, look like results of earthquake, flood, mudflood vibration. Can
you imagine? .....and the unknown inhabitants who experienced such devastation! Comment here are good ones. In our
minds, buried somewhere, we know the history. We just seem to be unable to recall....even is we were only the replacements.
Juts natural forces accumulating over time, coupled with human activity like looting and defacement. I dont think the inhabitants in Egypt experienced any single event devastation like Pompeii. I lived on a military base overseas in the 80s, which was abandoned in the 90s, and I went back to visit in the 2000s and the place also looked like it was hit by a nuclear bomb, but it was the product of looters and nature reclamation over a few decades.
@@valentinexavier9278 Egypt had so many battles and invasions. Alexander the Great, the Romans, the Arabs. Like you said if we leave a house alone for 20 years it's almost unrecognizable. Ancient Egypt architecture really is marvelous and I think it's kinda disrespectful tying all their work to some conspiracy theory but whatever. I don't know how you can look at all these pictures and not think this is exactly what I've expected. The Sphinx still mostly buried is so cool to me.
Only thing maybe that is kinda weird to me is that Cairo seems really empty. There should have been living 100s of thousands to a million people at that time.
Excellent. Thank you for sharing. ❤
I always think of the ending of The Hitchhikers guide to the Universe ending when I watch your videos.
@21:11 othe best picture of the Sphynx I evere saw, thank you🙏🏾
My pleasure my friend
Amazing! Thanks Jarid! The aerial photos are next level. How could they be so clear with the balloon moving if the mainstream lie was true about slow shutter speed.... No people are blurred at all in any photos. You are likely correct that they decided to scale back the photography equipment that the public were allowed to know about. Impressive collection of informative narrative destroying photos. Keep up the quality work my friend and thanks to all of you for thinking and being awesome!
I was thinking the same thing. They are way to clear for a moving balloon.
Anyone can study it out that the early photographs were quite detailed.
Ask a photographer. They'll happily explain it to you
Those structures look torched.
I have always thought that, like a bomb of some sort all most like Alien VS Predator with the underground pyramid
Its acid rain, buildings everywhere have it.
@@gamingforever6687 What, Fluoroantimonic acid rain?

Between c. 11000 - 3000 BCE, the Sahara was far from the desert it is today. It was covered in grassland and dotted with shallow lakes. Ancient humans used their waterways to travel up through Africa. Its legacy remains today in rock art and dried riverbeds.humid African period started to a widespread settlement of the Sahara and the Arabian Deserts and profoundly influenced African cultures, such as the origin of the Pharaonic civilization.
The humid African period ended about five thousand years ago during the Piora Oscillation cold period. At the same time, some data pointed to an end 5.5 thousand years ago, in the Sahel, Arabia, and East Africa.
Excellent job!!
I wish they had photography during the "visit" of the French, with Napoleon.
Every episode is so thought provoking Jared ! Awesome work bud !
Great Show
Thx , for this nice photo selection ❤
Lovely looking photo of the sphinx at 21 minutes,made me wish I hadn’t got rid of mine now!!
Excellent collection!
Africa....the cradle of civilization. ❤
Egypt *
Another well disproven bit of misinformation that's still widely babbled. We did not come from Africa get over yourself
@@faresfs7434 Kemet is what they called it. Most def wasnt made by arabs.
You must know the guy from the channel "My Lunch Break." You two collaborating on something would be phenomenal!
That channel is disinformation.
⚔️Ancient ghosts of those spectacular monuments; in disrepair are empowering my imagination, sad, and heart breaking to behold the remnants. There’s such peace within the now, almost vacant, and remoteness of its abandonment. It would enrich many, to see the Giza Sphinx with its nose still in place. But, Napoleon, and his army-said to have shot at the nose- had long vacated there before pictures were taken. From a glistening Empires, to rubbles. Great video.🛡️
My god I'm going through the comments here and it seems everyone just believes things that are flat out false which is quickly turning me off this channel because audiences are reflections of the creators. Napoleon had NOTHING to do with the sphinx nose. NOTHING. That is false. You and almost everyone else in this damned comment section are confidently spouting bullcrap and it's got to stop
Beautiful pictures
Funny how photos over 150 years old have better detail and clarity than modern day photos do. Much higher resolution,
Completely amazing!! Just image what we could discover and accomplish if we actually worked together with one another, rather than fought against each other in one way or another. How sad is that when our goal is supposed to be knowledge. May GOD help us and may HE annihilate all the lies that are certain to come as a result of this video.
Unfortunately God is only a silent witness. We have pass the point of no return. Anyway, if you want to understand the World a bit better just find my books. Regards
Awesome, thank you
Beautiful thank you ❤🎉
those old film cameras were incredible. You can see great things that are missing now.
I used to have some of the old Reisner photos when Khufus causeway still had bricks,
and they have images of fish and birds people dont know about to this day.
Thank you very much for this work Jarid 👍👍🙏🙏
You are very welcome
The people look too tiny to be there, Great collection ❤
Many thanks fro Brazil. Excellent!!!
Fantastic, thanks for sharing.
Fulfilling, touching indeed.
with analogue photography the resolution is down to the chemical bond. it has almost infinite resolution and data size only shows how well it was scanned into a computer from the original.
you can blow a photographic negative up to any size you like and it will keep it's resolution.
the detritus around the sphinx is not sand that was blown in. it is rubble that is full of sharp rocks. some of significant size.
the ancient legends actually talk of it raining stones and they had to hide in caves.
Thank you for saying this. You put it much more bluntly than I would have and I feel it needs to be pointed out. This whole "10MB" file issue means nothing, especially when there are digital camera's doing gigabit pics from what I've heard (gov spy camera's).
I didn’t realise how much of Karnak had been restored. Also beautiful to see the pyramid complex without Cairo encroaching and the piles of plastic waste everywhere.
These are fantastic
Stuff just keeps getting older :)
Excellent
Amazing work
So cool!!
love this vid, thanks Jarid
Was lucky to tour there in 2000. Went to all those places. The detail is stunning. Like Ansel Adams. My favorite is the passenger boat on the Nile.Thank you for the album link.
Very nice video. Thanks for the upload. The masque reminds me of the phrase "The scepter and orb."
Did they have to transport all those stones from somewhere else! What a monumental achievement.
The work of Wilson and Blackett may interest you - they are able to translate the hieroglyphs using Welsh! I kid you not. Fascinating info.
Thx. I stay open minded w/healthy skepticism. Student of many vs follower and that sounds interesting.
I've heard Welsh is very close to ancient Hebrew.
Those eyes thou @ 9:31 especially the person on the left. Wow. They look like they’ve had a tough life👀
Amazing pics as always. Many thanks. Looks like some serious industrialised construction - with a sense of beauty & 'eternity'. Also looks like everything has taken a huge hit!
Many thanks!
انا انتمي الي هذا المكان صعيد مصر 🤝
Actually on my way to Egypt, so this is cool timing
best time now, enjoy
It would be cool to do a video with side by side pictures with there current picture.
Yes. IMO archaeologists have been too aggressive in clearing away the rubble, and I suspect they've made alterations.
There are a lot of alterations. I have seen most of these pictures before, and many places are barely recognizable when you go to Egypt today. So much taken away, not only sand. Some of these constructions in this video are no longer there. Also a lot of bad restorations made.
@@susannebrunberg4174 maybe it's better to leave the rest buried.
I am sure I was an Egyption in a Past life... But I am sure it was a specific time, because most of the pictures don't ring a Bell....lol The Music for these slides was perfect.. I do love these old photos... awesome...
How would they take a picture from a balloon.
Wouldn't everything come out blurry because they are moving.
Egypt is mostly sand, yellow high reflections of sun rays, as a photographer i can see he did take the photos on a hot clear day where the camera will absorb light faster and wont need much apreture time
@@Nomad_eg fabulous insight, thank you for this comment!
I've to many of the locations shown in the photos. It's interesting to see these sites in their pre-commercialized state. Thanks.
😧… ❤The channel & feel like this one is gonna be one of or The heaviest video of the channel’s & out there on the topic.. probably a top lister in s-engines helping Humanity during this,, “epochal flow” already so much being revealed to those of us with 👁️’s to do so that’s been suppressed in a ill way/ motive by “the powers that WERE” 😏 & Your artistic labor here is a huge contribution in true freedom n will be ~I feel. I am grateful for your sharing and energy invested may you be Divinely Compensated 😌🙏
I live in the United States and knowing these photos are from before, during, and after the civil war is just amazing
Wow! at 14:55 the Great Pyramids causeway all but gone now.
Thanks for the upload. I appreciate the quality photos. I don't understand how you can talk about digital quality in terms of MBs when the originals were analogue. Also, photos were a very big deal back then. They would have "cleared the set" to take these.
Kind of looks like a complete and utter disaster took place in the ancient world with all the people just sort of living around it.
Excellent pictures love the effort you put into this video 👍🏽❤️🙏🏽
I love these old photos before they had the heavy machinery to do the heavy lifting and alter the landscape and artifacts.
never seen pics, nice
superbe .Photos relativement rares
In the later part of the 1800s most cameras were large format bellows type. Negatives were on glass plates in large sizes. They made very detailed images. Later 35mm film technology made for very grainy enlargements in 8x10 size prints.
That pylon at 1:50 is amazing. What could they have used it for?
the remnants of the gateway of The Khonsu Temple at Karnak - Luxor
I went to two family-run estate three days ago. Both amazingly had antique photos for sale. I bought an album for$15 that has 14 photos by Francis Frith and other famous photographers like Auguste Couttet and James Valentine. I'm still doing research and I'm still amazed at my finds. I'm trying to find out as much as I can about each photographer. Hopefully this video helps😊.
JARID THESE TROLLS CAN POUND SAND, THESE ARE THE PEOPLE FROM THE CONSTRUCT THAT ARE PAID TO SEE YOU FAIL (THEY ARE PAID BY BIG NAME FAMILIES). YOU KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING BROTHER. SHOW THE VIDEOS AND THEY WILL COME.
Photographs from moving balloons must also be hazy then ?.
We live in some kind of Petri dish, and at this point in time humans are treated like cattle.
The strange high ears on some of the statures, that form the top of the ear, line up with the middle of the forehead, on a normal face the top of the ear will always line up with the eyebrow,.. this may suggest an elongated head hiding under those headdresses ? See these high ears at 2:22, 5:08, & 5:37, on the video.
The reason the quality of these images is pretty high, is because they were shot on film. Unlike digial photographs, it means you actually preserve a lot more quality. It's the same reason a lot of older movies are able to be remastered into 4k.
To view the stereographic photos using only your eyes, cross your eyes a little until you see 3 perfect images and if you really focus on the center one, you'll see it in 3D, it might take a little practice.,, Awesome vid!
Hi Jarid
One of the most common symbols in Christian art is the Chi-Rho. It is created by superimposing the first two letters (XP) of the Greek word for Christ, ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ. The monogram, also called a “christogram,” represents Jesus Christ, but is also considered to be a common representation of the crucifixion scene.
I first came across this at the consecration of a new Orthodox Church here in England- It struck me that the monogram (or Christogram) for the Lord comprises letters that sound out as Cairo. A coincidence? No idea the significance but the fact resonates with me.
The Truth has been hidden for so long, and is now starting to burst out.
Keep going!
I've never traveled to these regions so I've nothing to reference them to. It would really be helpful to see today's photos vs. these photos.
Hey Jarid, Extremely informative !!! i wonder if Jason from ARCHAIX has these same photos. i think these would interest him. Maybe you and him do a video together. That man would send you Love and exposure for your channel. And more importantly "Truth", which you both strive for. I love being subscribed here and also at ARCHAIX. You two have alot in common. Make it work brother, it will be beneficial for not just you two, but everyone. Jason's community would love these pictures. thanx brother
In these pictures I can now see what happened. I have been searching wide and far for many years. I'm sure others will see it as well. It is known but hidden from us as well as forgotten. Forgotten by amnesia as well as intentionally destroyed and misconstrued. I wish I could explain but this is something you will need to discover yourself in order to believe the truth.
enjoyable
Hey Jarid, always awesome. I'll point out it appears these are doctored "wiki" approved photos as FF numbered all his photos and wrote captions. His memnon photos #1858 has an arrow pointing to the mouth on the left, (which has a way more lizard like head in the original) stating it looks like his father's "illegible".
Currently, I'm 1,600+ photographs into the Francis Frith photo archives via 1850-70. Still have 3,000+ to go. A narrative has clearly unfolded so far, he was sent out to document what cities and buildings were still viable post reset, and which were "spoiled" (as noted on many of his perfectly good photographic plates). He also seemed to be directed to photograph special ancient trees, like the Yew, Oak, Cedar etc. All of those show post reset near dead trees. The glaring lack of plebs in his European photos pops out too. While his Egypt photos at least show some local guides etc. In 99% of photos so far with plebs, they all look aimless, depressed and in one instance photo #1925, it appears he captured a Mary Poppins moment as there's a man with an umbrella who looks like he just touched down on the realm with, what appear to bd tracers from (another realm?) They lead from sky to his hand. And there's 3 random children just looking she'll shocked on the steps, apparently?
Thank you for this Incredible montage of the earliest photos as far as you have found of these Fantastically built structures that still defy explanation as to How and even Why they were undertaken. These photos, with the most Amazing clarity, focus and distinctive detail for such an early use of photographic technology, that We are led to believe and have been told anyway, that the top 1/3rd or so cover stones that are shown today and that the lower stones have been explained as having been taken to use elsewhere and repurposed which is such a shame that this vandalization was done at all.
These three pyramids proven to resemble/mirror the alignment of the constellation of Orion are Amazing because it is Not known how this was done except for the theories that there are other people on other land masses beyond the Arctic Icewall(s) which of course are forbidden for All to see or go to unless you/We are part of the so-called "Elite" class that are the 'Controllers' in this realm We are permitted to cohabitate/Live in.
We have been told that the outer cover stones, of which most or 3/4's have been removed/taken/stolen? were later attempts to preserve and protect the underlying "original" blocks which has also been proven upon investigation. But as to Who and When they were actually built and How is still a mystery to at least 99.98% of all the people of the World. We Must Rise Up for many other reasons but I believe the answers to Most of All the questions and mysteries we ponder and have been for at least hundreds and maybe thousands of years and Damn it, that's just Not fair and certainly Not Right. We have a Right to know the Truth and I believe that We are in that Age where "All that has been hidden Will be revealed" are this is what Scares the 'Controllers' and is why they have increased the ways and means of reducing the World Populations by 95% by 2030 and more realistically by 2050 and more so by 2100. They Must be stopped and it is up to us and Everyone alive today to End their Enslavement of Humanity and join together to bring "Them" Down and Unite to do so while We Still Can . . .
the pyramids are not aligned with the constellation of Orion, but actually they were built exactly on top of the electromagnetic portals on the ground, which emit electromagnetic waves intensely heading upwards, hitting the firmament and causing the illumination we call stars. stars are electromagnetic refraction. hence the perfection of the alignment of the pyramids with this constellation at any given time. in other words, they are built on the source of those constellations.
