I wish we had more info on these super ancient times & lifestyle although i have found the Urantia Book and it gives more fascinating detail.

Perfect length for younger kids, but your words are big, so either lengthen for older videos or keep the short structure and think younger. :) I love the information. (Also, look up what ages they are learning this in school. Usually it's about the same range of years, so it'll give you a good idea.) I homeschool, so I'm listening to videos for this coming school year. Thank you!! I love your voice. It keeps people's attention. Many times even good videos cannot get there because their voice is off. I know that sounds bad, but I don't mean it to be. You have a great future in this if you just think of the audience. Most adults won't watch history videos out of the blue, and if they do, they are older and have their favorite channels they usually stick with. There's also a huge market there. At any rate, you are going on the schedule!! Thank you!!

Nice job, just needs to be longer.. Notice the history channels getting 1+million views are over 1hr to 3hr long .... 👍.

Well, I gotta say, that was way to basic and generic. That could have applied to peasants of basically any ancient civilization. Maybe you should have focused on a set of sources from a given period and what they had to say about daily life. What customs, practices, how they worshiped, what their houses looked like, what would they eat, rites of passage, what games they played. That kind of stuff.

13:36 if you had talked about that image alone, for example, would have been a better video.
