If you do choose to purchase any of these incredible sources of information then Amazon will send me a tiny fraction of the earnings (as long as you do it through the link) (this means more and better content in the future) I'll keep adding to and updating the list as time goes on:-

Hi everyone. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed the doc! Make sure to subscribe as there is much more to come from this time period. and soon....

For the Algorithm!
At this point, it is the algorithm rather than a library or parents or friends or society that is imprinting a world view onto you. All the big tech algorithms control the evolutions of patterns of human behavior, just to optimize few parameters like engagement time, online shopping, likes, views, screen time. It is quite a god, molding the adam in his own shape.

Genesis 1:27- So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Sounds like A.I is starting to take over.
You could just say something simple that you like about the episode... that way you boost the algorithm and give the content creator useful information about what their audience likes. Thats what i started doing... Cheers!

Here here!
My life doesn’t allow me to travel the world. These videos allow me to get as close as I can the amazing history of the world, around the world. I can’t thank you enough…
Same and same.

I travelled to that place and can say that the documentary represents the energy of that place very well. So it’s like almost being there and you are not missing anything at all! :)
Oh feed you comfermation bias

Bruh. We should all give this dude at least a dollar. This is amazing content done professionally.
Excellent job, sir. I hope these documentaries make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.
You first

I hope every middle- or high school history teacher is taking advantage of this incredible film and showing it (if only the highlights) to their students in the classroom. This is truly amazing work - both the video itself and the archaeologists’ relentless pursuit of humanity’s beginnings. I feel privileged to be able to experience this FOR FREE.
Teachers are too busy trying to get laid
As an archaeologist of nearly 40 years, I can safely say that this is one of the best presentations I have ever seen. Very well done.
I agree. Extremely well done, PK. Everything from the cinematography to the narration to the editing is a treat. Thank you so very much for what you do. It is greatly appreciated.

He mentions monoliths being moved without animal power being prior to domestication.But elephants are wild & used as beasts of burden. Dogs, as camp followers at least, may have been corralled into helping, too. Thoughts?
Laird Scranton believes that the people who built Gobekli Tepe were in contact with the pre-dynastic Egyptians, and says that "Get Petkai" means "Gobekli Tepe" in Egyptian. Is there any veracity to this connection?
It's just absolutely incredible to me that we get these videos free. Even back when the history channel was actually showing educational history shows they couldn't do any better than this here. Prayers and Blessings to everyone behind History Time! Thank you so much from Bayou Sorrel, Louisiana!
this video is missing so much information. First of all, in the beginning, he should've mentioned that it was found in Turkey. and there was no single mention of Turkish archeologists. Second, "Gobeki Tepe " it's not a temple. Third, It shows at least 12 thousand years of human existence, not 10 thousand. Fourth, the head was stolen by German archeologists, then they just paid some amount of money back to Turkey in return.
@@estheroz7119

Technically it’s not free. You have an initial investment of the device you watch it on, as well as some form of internet service. Then comes the electricity fees associated with said devices….
Unless of course you are an illegal immigrant under the Biden administration. Then yes it is free. 🙄

"An anthropomorphic being from an early time. Unfortunately it's head was missing." Very stunning coverage and display. Came for a snapshot. Stayed for the entire show.
I put this on when I'm cleaning and organizing. Your voice is so soothing. Helps me get so much done and learn too. I appreciate your research and delivery is masterful. Love from Grandma in Peru
I put it on as background noise while my babies sleep. Wonderfully enjoyable. Thank you!

This might be your best work yet. This is a fantastic presentation that puts together an awful lot of material, and is stunningly up-to-date. So glad you're doing this, thank you so much.
I echo this point. Thank you ❤
Agreed
Me too, I shall watch it again certainly, Gobekli Tepe is fascinating, I do hope more films about the interrelated sacred sites.
I watched thousands upon thousands of videos, and you are the most passionate narrator I’ve ever heard. What we’re learning about our world is beyond mind blowing. Keep it up, please!
I hear ya! I've been completely hooked on these ancient sites. Have you seen the BAM documentary about the unbelievable connections between these sites?
@@mr.anonymous9700 oh most definitely.
But he's also laid back at the same time. I'm just as happy falling asleep to is as paying close attention.
I am From Şanlıurfa City where the Göbeklitepe in it.
Salute from Turkey to all editors
Urfa is the Oldest Village, Town, & City on Our Planet! Am looking forward to the Ministry of Tourism of Turkey 🇹🇷 promoting this fact Globally!!!
Hedo Turkoglu was a magnificent NBA player for the Sacramento Kings 🏀
My goodness, this is about so much more than Gobekli Tepe isn't it? You have obviously spent many hours researching and amassing data. Thank you for the artful way you have presented it. Simply fascinating.
First documentary form this channel that I've watched. Awesome. Reminds me of some of the great history documentaries I grew up with. Definitely one of my favorite RUclips channels now.
Pete, I cannot thank you enough for this stunning production. Trained as an archaeologist (fell off the wagon and became a physician) but never lost my love for prehistory. You have the talent to tell the stories so well and such a professional production. With great appreciation, Jean
Thank you Pete for your hard work on this project. The emotional stirrings that the Urfa region stimulates within me are corroborated by the narration and cinematic experience that you’ve created. Not only have you effectively represented a lost piece of collective human culture but you have managed to format it so that many millions of people can access it for free. I hope that one day I can contribute to world understanding and empathy as exceptionally as you have.
Well said, I've already watched this twice and its not even 24 hours old, both times if found myself utterly captivated, hairs stood on end and regular chills down my spine, this is a masterpiece.
Love!
Yeah, what you said. Almost exactly!
Agreed 💯
I was visiting Carcassone, France, and bump a couple of Archeologists. They’ve found skeletons buried during Black Death. Tied a cross in chests and the very image scared the hell out of. It was amazing how preserved it was.
I've been waiting on this documentary for at least a decade. The fact that you're the one that created it, makes it everything I could have ever hoped for
Why’d I think this channel was a subsidiary of History channel, and didn’t know this was a one man channel!? That’s how high quality your video, especially your narration and voice is!!! You are amazing!!!!!!! Love your work!
If it were done by the history channel, it would have been about aliens lol.
@@GubbinsmcbumbersnootI thought it was the unchanged subsidiary before history channel was bought out and corrupted by alien narratives 😂
Does anyone even watch the History channel anymore?
History Channel, discovery Channel and TLC went downhill a decade or two ago
@@michaelmaniscalco2191not only history
Canadian here: thank you for producing such in-depth, concise and educational documentaries. VERY pro work! you may be a self titled "one man show" but your work is formidable ! new subscriber here.
I found the youtube channel Fall of Civilizations about a year ago and even though the videos are longer like yours, I watched them one after another for nights. I loved them so much and learned so much. Last night I was actually thinking of them and disappointed that they don't post anymore and this morning your video was reccomended on my feed 🙂 I am loving your channel and it reminds me a lot of FoC and this is meant as a huge compliment. You both have soothing voices. Great research. The images and video clips you choose are great and entertaining. I am learning a lot and I find it very relaxing. When you mentioned your newsletter at the start of the video I actually thought about signing up for it (and I will) and I've never done that from a RUclips channel or anyone. Just want to say that I am truly enjoying watching your content. I think you do an amazing job and I'm looking forward to watching it all.
It's amazing how much more research and effort is in his videos compared to ones made by large teams.
Enjoying something and sharing it is much more inspiring than people doing a job.
I sooo love your channel! You don't speak in a hurried fashion, which is helpful because there's always a lot of wonderful information to learn. Aren't we lucky that we're able to access informative, well-done history channels like this!! 😉❣️
I've been subscribed for about a year and I had no idea that you were a one man team. It makes these videos so much more knowing that. Thank you Pete. Your dedicated determination is appreciated and admired.
Visited Gobeklitepe twice and each time I have goosebumps
Thank you for your incredible work, one of the best documentaries I have ever seen! Amazing that it’s just you and you - way better than all major documentaries on TV with a huge production team
Makes you wonder what other archeological gems might be hidden within the earth. Absolutely incredible!
It's really sad too. imagine you being one of the ancient people who was there and had experiences. You felt happiness, love from your parents and had experiences both good and bad. And then life goes on, more than a thousand years from now, no one remembers what you had or what you went through.
Imagine europe and the united states and all other countries like that. No one knows that the US or europe or africa was ever like that. Or that we had such fun and stuff.
@Opa_Joke interesting point you made, and yes, it's really quite depressing.
@@Opa_Joketrue. But that's life in a nutshell
@@Opa_Jokenow imagine all the civilizations we still don’t even know existed due to not finding any evidence yet

Thank you so much!
It’s crazy how things make more sense and that I’ve been able to spot so many of the things out that are in your videos. Great job friend. Keep up the good work
Your programs are phenomenal. They should be shown in schools. I have always been interested in the civilizations of ancient Turkey- this will be a welcome addition to my history studies. Thank you for making this! 😊
There is no ancient Turkey 😂 Turks are nomads from the stepes of central Asia first time they went in Asia Minor is before 1000 years.
You can talk for ancient Anatolia or ancient Asia Minor but not ancient Turkey 😂
“Ancient turkey”? 🤡 You realize that the name “turkey” was fabricated in 1923 & the name of “Göbekli tepe” is fake & wrongly translated from Kurdish name ‘Girê bi Navok’ which means ‘ the hill with the navel’, right? And the so called “Çay önü” is also fake and translated from the Kurdish name Berçem, which means Riverside and Navalî-Çori is also fake name, but this one is wrongly spelled Kurdish name. The real correct spelling of Navali-Çori is Newala-Çolê, which translates as Walley of the steppe.
And the general name of all these ancient sites is Xerabreşk= Dark-Ruins =kurdish and they are located between Kurdish cities of Amed/ Diyarbakir and Riha/Urfa which are cities of norther part of Kurdistan under jihadist turkey’s occupation right now. 🙂👍

i swear it feels like a holiday whenever you post. your videos are quiet moments for me in the hectic lives we all live. i have so many great memories of sitting down to one of your videos (new or old) and just breathing for three hours. they're incredibly researched, visually stunning, and so captivating; i'm always fully immersed in the worlds you bring to life. thank you for making this accessible to everyone! i don't think i'd ever learn about ancient history in the depth that i have if it weren't for your channel. thank you thank you thank you for being such a bright part of life.
Thank you so much for what you do!❤ Also, a big heap of gratitude for covering Gobekli Tepe. This video is awesome.
Amazing content. Took me a few times to watch the whole thing but I'm glad I did. So many of our ancestors were so much more connected than we previously thought. The new sites and burials we have found are very exciting.
Greatest history/archaeology channel on RUclips. Incredibly detailed, thoroughly researched, and so very fascinating! ❤
History Time, The Histocrat, Fall of Civilizations are top 3 channels
Very cool videos dude ❤
Hands down the best narrator out there. Paul Cooper a close second.
I feel sad that you believe this is thoughrly researched , this term golpetepee is a new term , did you know the ancestral people of these lands that were not Turks but Armenians , assyrians and Greeks this land mark is known as PORTASAR. help the indigenous people from Cultural Genocide
@@raffis15 what is the name of your documentary and your RUclips channel????
Not just the content, your narration is incredible. Great work, and much appreciated.
Outstanding, Bravo! Thank you so much for your magnificent historical videos!
So far my most favorite video you have made 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you so so so much for this incredible amazing project!!!
Your videos about the history are the best what is available to watch here on RUclips !!!!!!!!!!!
Great work as always, Pete. Our house watches all your videos multiple times, but ESPECIALLY the longform videos. Keep it up, cheers, and take care!
I also watch them over and over
Yes!
Me too, glad I’m not alone.
You and Fall of Civilizations are my favorite podcasts by far. I would love to see you guys collaborate on a project, your styles are similar and I think you'd both deserve equal professionals.
I upvote this idea. Both of them would create an awesome historical episode!
Love Fall of Civilizations as well. History with Cy is another one of my go to’s. If you like history (which I’m guessing you obviously do) he doesn’t have a RUclips channel (I don’t tbink…) but Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History podcast is easily one the best out there!! Cheers from Canada!
☮️🙏🇨🇦🍻
I actually just looked it up and Dan Carlin DOES have a RUclips page now!! And it looks like all of his material is there too!
Totally agree. My favorites.
What's the podcast called please I'm searching for it?
Thank you for your time and heart in creating and sharing this with us.
Absolutely incredibly put together. I thank you for this knowledgeable documentary.
It still surprises me that such high quality, entertaining content is free on youtube. Amazing!
I've watched dozens of videos about Gobeckli Tepe and this one is by far the best. Fantastic job with providing context and the big picture.
Yes it is a good start. Otherwise there are older places.
Thank you for your work. Wonderful format! Top notch quality and great narration!
Fantastic video!! The way you narrate is perfect. The depth, time and passion in this video. Wow! 😮 You are a natural teacher!
This is such an amazing, well-researched, and informative documentary. I really can't recommend this video or this channel enough. This channel deserves 50 million subscribers. You can't go wrong, and you can't get a more eloquently or evocatively-delivered synthesis of so much scholarship, paired with excellent visuals and appropriate, enriching audio elements. An outstanding production all around!
Really? Because I find the guy pompous and condescending just a few minutes into this. I can't help paying special attention to what relates directly to the FACT that this monument wasn't supposed to exist. The historians and archeologist where wrong about the history of permanent settlement, technology, cataclysms, and agriculture. I have seen what clever people can do today- and we have not got any smarter for 350.000 years. We did lose our fur though. Unmatched marathon trekkers. We can eat nearly anything. Even each other. That's how our species conquered this world becoming the top predator. Sweat glands. Not intelligence.
We can escape cataclysm in replacement numbers, and we have. The human genome project found several bottlenecks in our shared genetic history.
This video is basicly just about trying to claim anything big or old must be religious in nature, and that the population that built major infrastructure wasn't even agrarian yet. Witch is just fucking stupid. Honestly.. At a certain point it's less face lost by academia by admitting they where wildly off on the history of technology. People forget. Being wrong like that isn't trivial. It's akin to saying the roman empire at it's hight was a stack of mud huts reinforced with straw and human feces where they had no knowledge of proper hygiene. Then excavating a roman bath claiming it's clearly a temple to some forgotten god. I mean.. Common!
Quite queer of you, Jesus.
The kid me thirty years ago would’ve never believed the quality and depth of the history content I’d have access to later in life. What a time to be alive.
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you for making it. Super fascinating
You are amazing. Thank you for your dedication. Always fascinated by Gobekli Tepe. You provide so much information.
This might just be your best documentary yet. I have always been fascinated with the epipaleolithic and the neolithic, so seeing that you have made a 3 hour long video about it is an absolute joy. Insanely great work, Pete!
the really sad part is that 95-98% of our history is almost permanently gone. we didn't start keeping physical records of our presence until the last 6-7000yrs ago.
@@sunny-sq6ci And that's only certain civilizations. Remember, we know next to nothing about the histories of some peoples and even empires that existed less than 1-2000 years ago
Well done team! Absolutely amazing work. Thank you very much
not only that, but 90% of that has been lost or falsified to suit the whims of conquerors.

You're the king of documentary making, hands down!!! Thanks for the massive effort ❤
Love your approach. You did not leave a section of literally the spirit of the place. Keep up the hard work!
Pete you are the GOAT of independent history documentaries. I have learnt so much from you and your videos. I will use them to teach my children history and develop the same fiery passion I and so many others feel when we watch these epics. Thank you.
Your presentations have peaked my interest so much, they are so well made, interesting and captivating Sir, I've little interest in anything else, I can't thank you enough for giving my spare time a meaning again, I can't wait each day to settle down and peruse your work, you should be immensely proud of yourself. 👍❤️
Incredible. I'm so grateful for your riveting archeological content. I am a sponge absorbing the fluidity of your narration.. ❤
I was in Göbekli Tepe last summer.It's a fascinating place,everyone should definitely visit it.Come to see the beginning of civilization with your own eyes and stare for hours...
That’s a theory of course. There are much older sites in Italy. Under ground cities carved out of solid rock.

Deepest sense of gratitude, Pete and team. Prehistory is my favorite and you covered it brilliantly! Hopefully more prehistoric sites are discovered so I can hear further commentary and speculations on such topics 🙏🏼
This channel has come to be a absolutely outstanding Historian channel! Well done Pete all Your hard work and dedication over the years has served You very well, I think I speak for a lot of us who listen & watch Your amazing videos.
We can’t thank you enough for your hard work, time, & perfection on each & every video it’s just amazing & for a one man team, I tip my hat to you Sir…
Thank you so much Pete keep up the excellent work 🙏🙏👍
What an informative, splendid video!! Your work is so well put together. Wide ranging and visibly engaging, I love your voice and music!! Very professional!! 😘
Absolutely blown away and captivated by this wonderful presentation!
It’s weird seeing a face belonging to the voice. A voice that ethereal seems like it belongs to time itself. I get a sense of awe and wonder and unrequited memories thinking about the long march of eons before our time. And your narration strikes a *perfect* chord with that feeling. Really, you do an amazing job with these videos. Thank you!
What a sophisticated civilisation. No words to even explain how astonishing these inhabitants were. ❤❤
Forgive me for asking but what do you know about this civilisation and their sophistication and most importantly could you provide your souces so that we can study them also?
@@moutsatsosajust based off a structure is this size, this early in human history, is pretty telling
@@moutsatsosa no problem,
Gobekli tepe is considered the oldest civilization found. There could be older civilizations in other parts of the world, that's not unearthed (under debris etc). This is neolithic civilization, meaning these inhabitants existed abt 50 to hundred thousand years ago. Monolithic stones were used to build their homes etc. gonna watch this episode again to fully understand. It's really the first Gobekli tepe I watched so far.
I enjoy documentaries on these old civilizations. 🙂👍
@@moutsatsosa there are a few other channels on RUclips, on Gobekli tepe, you know trying to figure out the hand bag theory 😁
@@kasturipillay6626 According to Herodotus in the passage where he talks about the gods with the Egyptian priests they state that the "gods" lived around 50.000(dont remember the exact number but can find it,it was somewhere in the range of 50-40) years before their time.
I know historians and archeologists dismiss that passage as false due to the fact that they haven't found anything to prove the existence of human organized cities of that time but as we know most likely there was a cataclysm or a large scale extinction event that most likely caused the downfall of the civilizations of that era.
The Greeks have documented 3 different cataclysms.The most recent one is the cataclysm of Deukalion which is the same with the one referred to in the bible.The one previous to that was called the cataclysm of Dardanos and the first one is called the cataclysm of Ogegos.
I know that the oldest found full developed city in Greece at the moment is called Sesclo and it was first inhabited around 7000 bc and was abandoned around 4.400 bc.
There's another city in Greece called Demenion that is fully excavated and estimated to have 5000 citizens with all kinds of shops and a market.That dates to 4.800 bc.
If there were big cities with shops,houses and administrative buildings at -7000 this means that the people that used to live there were far more developed that the common consensus.
As a kind neolithic to me meant fire sticks and stones and a lot of hair.Today after a lot of research and reading I know that neolithic people in some certain parts of the globe is not that different from those that we call ancients.
Thanks for all youyhsrd work and dedication ... I,m loving your channel❤
The best 3 hours I have ever spent! Remarkable program! I learned so much information from you! Answers to so many questions I've had for so many years! What an awesome Gathering of information put in one program explaining human development impossible theories of Gobekli Tepe. THANKYOU
These video are some of the best produced documentaries ive watched. premium quality. your videos are art in themselves. you well deserve your sponsors
Yes you are so right..... there are really good background thoughts
Amazing work, Pete - congratulations! I have watched everything out there on Göbekli Tepe and this one is the new benchmark, by miles. I also absolutely love the "full-immersion" feel of your long docs , you just can't get that kind of depth with programs that are crammed into standard-length format. Thank you so much for being a rebel and doing it the way that these subjects deserve!
Superb. As always! Thanks History Time!
Masterpiece 👏👏👏. Really well done Pete Kelly. I cannot comprehend how much work this entailed. Much respect ✊
No question, THIS is your greatest work ! A ONE MAN TEAM outshines the best documentaries available !
Amazing work. I don't think anyone is currently producing anything as detailed or informative as you are. This is beyond network budget quality and depth.
Fall of Civilizations does equally good work. I’m a big fan of both. Definitely beyond network quality.
This is a great video!! Thank you so much for making this!!
Great video, appreciate your work!
I'd only really briefly looked into Göbekli Tepe when I read that its discovery had dethroned the neolothic temples of Malta as the oldest free standing structures in the world, so I really loved learning so much about the site, as well as about the cultural context it may have been built in. Thank you for the wonderful video!
So this temple complex was all before the Bronze Age. Image the amount of work involved in just carving the animals into rock, let alone the amount of effort to moving and building it all. Just amazing.
Carving the animals and rock could be done with other stones. The majority of the drawings of deities were done on sandstone.
It is way older than the Bronze Age. It has been dated to the Pre-Pottery Neolithic with was between 9500-8000 BCE. The site is unbelievably old.
Amazing! 😮I really enjoyed this, a whole year, it shows in the amount of info and quality. Legend.
Great project, perfect implementation! Thank you so much, guys ❤
This is, by far, the most amazing/satisfying history video i've watched on youtube. the sheer scope of time we are talking about blows my mind. Thank you Mr Pete Kelly you are doing a great service to everyone interested in history. I also love every single one of your other feature length documentaries.
This channel at least needs a “Buy me a coffee” link. Dude, you’re awesome and I want to buy you a coffee.
Ah. I see the thanks button. On it!
I look forward to and enjoy every single episode!! Thank you!!!
I love how everything is always deemed a ‘temple’ or ‘tomb’ no matter how little is truly known, proven, or understood.
when they found human bones buried, its a tomb, if they found altars for sacrifice, its a temple.
@@edgabrielocay3376 doesn’t mean that whatever structure it is was necessarily used for that, and also could’ve been used something entirely different and then was occupied by a different civilization.
Glad you like it
@@InUteroKDC It's because of all the "t"s at the site.
So naturally people think tomb or temple .
But I suppose it could be a ticking timebomb also ???
tiki torch . . . maybe :P hehe
Pete, this is glorious! What a ton of work you've done. Your narrative voice is soothing and the stories you tell are so epochal. I'm a big fan.
Love your work, man! Keep up the stellar videos!
Nicely done. Thanks for the excellent presentation.
I was having an average kind of weekend working on the construction site today. I get home and out of the shower to find a new History Time video dropped and my weekend has turned fantastic! And 2 1\2 hours!!!! On Göbekli Tepe!!!! Awesome!!!
