17:25 If you haven't already, could you make a video on agriculture and its affect on health please? That would be interesting

[TyrSkyFatherOfTheGods]

Your videos are a special treat! The various European migrations are a source of endless fascination. Thank you for sharing your passion with the rest of us!

[armyant]

That was possibly one of the most reflexive click I've had. Your content is TOP TIER!

[thicclegendfeep]

Damn, as a European, watching this made me feel an even stronger connection to our continent, knowing just how ancient our connection to it is.

[johnk]

There's a certain joy I feel when I get a notification for your videos! You're awesome and can't thank you enough for what you do

[StormiidaeBlogspot]

Early human history is endlessly fascinating. Thanks for this.

[marijaokic]

Another excellent video. It's wonderful that you back each one up with extraordinary sources. You're doing an amazing job. Best wishes.

[hunterGk]

I love these videos; I studied anthropology at uni but it was more than ten years ago now, so getting brought up to date with new discoveries and theories is great.

[PeterParker-fxdl]

I binged a lot of your videos. But I didn't realize I wasn't subscribed until I saw this video. Now I am. Great videos!

[tsaicio]

I like they way You support all of your videos with most up-to-date science papers. Keep doing a good job.

[robbie_]

Your voice for this and other videos was great. The essays upon which your videos are based are also fantastic.

[mikehughes]

I thought I would add this, that the Homo Erectus found in Georgia (H. georgicus), had a brain size range of between 900–1150 ccs. It's been postulated Homo Erectus had the ability to make fire and simple clothing of hides and fur.

[MaryAnnNytowl]

Yet another _excellent_ video, North. I love the whole package, from the voice to the writing to the quality of the images and the professional look! You should be working for one of the big history channels, with a paycheck big enough to make you set for life. 🙂 Very well done! ❤️❤️

[briemills]

Absolutely on point throughout. I can only imagine the amount of research that goes into your videos. Awesome work!

[lindakay]

Since everything has already been said about how excellent this channel is, I have to give massive props to the narrator for exemplary understanding and execution of punctuation. I can tell when someone was properly taught how to read. Speaking this perfectly is a very rare gift! 🥰

[HansWeberHimself]

Really appreciate your channel. I’m a biologist and a tinkerer, so ancient people tinkering is certainly up my ally.
I like your imagery especially the ’old fashioned’ illustrations that convey their prejudice but remind me of my prejudice. We are just mostly guessing and our mistakes will be revealed by future generations. Your approach is reasonable and pretty unique. Kudos and all the best for the future.

Also, your videos ALWAYS remind me of my mortality. Besides the topic, it’s something in your voice…‽

Your dives are deep. May it continue forever.

[doomguy]

“Cro Magnon” is fine as a name IMO, not unlike “Denisovan” and it’s easier for people to understand the distinction or at least specify between them and previous hominid and less advanced human populations compared to calling them different variations on “human”

[ESL-O.G.]

Good job North, another entertaining video. I'm 47 and still learning about things that I find interesting

[jbaccanalia]

Entertaining, educational, well worth rewatching. Every North 02 video raises human intelligence. We really need this.

[karenmann]

I honestly think this is the best documentary on the first Europeans I have found. Please do more and if possible, longer.
