*Note:* of all the historical dates given in this video, if by any chance you think it's strange or out of context or even impossible, know that in the archaeological context we find human occupation in the Iberian Peninsula as far back as 1.400.000 years ago (the Iberian Paleolithic), so all the dates in this video such as 20.000, 17.500, 7.500 ago are in fact only a fraction of time in the great span of human presence in the Iberian Peninsula. This is how far archaeology can go with physical evidences of human presence, so it might be even older. Here's a fun fact, this time not from Portugal but from Spain: The oldest known map in the world was carved on stone 14.000 years ago, and found in a carvern at Abauntz in the region of Navarra (Cueva de Abauntz).

When I was at school (11-16year old) we had a great English teacher. I was sent to a catholic school and in an English lesson he was asked why is it called “spelling” (to make words from letters) that’s magic and that’s not Christian. His response always stuck with me: it’s the perfect word to describe what you’re doing, you take a letter and string it together to make a word, those words make sentences, paragraphs and books. Knowledge can be spread and translated bringing enlightenment or challenging concepts all through the art or putting letters together... now isn’t that a magical thing.
12 year old me.... mind blown 🤯

Great informational video. More content like yours is needed.

I liked this very much. Language determines so much about thought and perception. finding the roots can explain so much about how we come to see the world.

Please revisit this subject in how the the Turks expanded to the Great Steppe and the stones and artifacts around Central Asia and Mongolia that have Runic symbols and alphabet.

I was taught that the Germanic Rues were not influenced by the Italic alphabet but rather, the Italic letters were assigned to the runes based on how similar they looked; i.e. Sol was assigned S and Tyr was assigned T etc...

I loved it kiddo and found it most informative as I am a great lover of truth .... however there are many out there that will always believe what they wish to believe truth or not .... an old saying goes ' you can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink ' or 'you can lead a man to knowledge but you cant make him think ' !

Arith Häger new subscriber here and your channel is like a "mini museum" in a nutshell, saw one of your videos on Icelandic Staves/Skuggi (Shadow) and really could not resist ;)

the audio spike at the very start of the video nearly burst my eardrums mate. But that aside, your content is as always top-notch, thank you for keeping history alive.
