Thanks for talking about this great country 🇵🇹

[uptown_rider]

Today in Portugal we are still proud of our Celtic culture and heritage.

[raphaelmartins]

Almost all European people emigrated to Portugal at one time or another in history. Europe, especially in the Middle Ages, was constantly crushed by numerous famines and this almost never happened in Iberia. In Portugal, in the coldest winters, large, sweet and juicy oranges grow in January. The amount of vitamin C during the winter that Mother Nature makes available to human beings in this region is a miracle!

[pedrorodrigues]

The horse culture and navigation are definitely a Lusitanian legacy in Portugal, completely different than others peninsula cultures, is Lusitanian mark.

[joaosousa-xz]

Lusitanians the most powerful and bravest people among all the Iberian nations

[ElTioPablito]

I am portuguese and im asking Why their isn’t a series about Viriato

[lopazio]

The most popular riot cart racer in ancient Rome was a Lusitanean called Gaius

[joserodrigues]

Portugal is composed of two former Roman provinces: Gallaecia and Lusitania. Saying that Portugal's origin is in the Lusitanians in not accurate. The cradle of the nation is in Gallaecia. That idea of Portugal=Lusitania was a concept invented in the 16th century in order to associate the origin of the nation with an historical and heroic myth of a people battling the Romans (remember Viriato and Sertorio).

[SulliMike]

I always wondered where the name of the ocean liner Lusitania got its name and now I know where.

[Goodmusicandlove]

Don't get how this channel doesn't have more views especially with 2 million subs

[TONYTAKER]

Now i can't decide between Viriato and Cristiano Ronaldo...

[sidoso]

the ancient city of portus cale was founded by gallaecians and portugal had its origins shared with the kingdome of galicia

[xmaniac]

Should have talked more about the Luso language which is considered to be part of proto Italic language family since its reclassification in the late 2010s.

0:01 These are Iberians, not Lusitanians

0:15 A lot to unpack here:
Lusitanian or Celt on the top left
Turdetanian on the middle-left
Lusitanian or Celtiberian in the middle with the Falcata looking back
Iberian in the middle
Celtic or Lusitanian helmet on the bottom-right
Celt or Lusitanian charging with the Chainmail
Iberian charging further ahead with the falcata
Another Iberian in the far right
A Celtic/Lusitanian straight sword on the horizon.
This image includes every single type of equipment found in the peninsula, this is innacurate because there is no evidence of any battle where every single culture fought on the same side, and they didn't all share the same items (there was some overlap between the tribes, but only the most basic elements such as small shields or spears were shared among all)

0:25 By the architecture, these are Gallaecian or Asturian Celts. Although they descend from the same people as the Lusitanians, and largely overlaped territorially and culturally.

0:40 This a Celtiberian horseman, not Lusitanian.

0:50 The horsemen are Iberian, not Lusitanian.

1:05 These are clearly Gallaecian Celts, not exactly Lusitanians.

1:20 Possibly Lusitanians trading with phoenicians.

1:40 They look Lusitanian, but the house doesn't, possibly Romanized Lusitanian.

2:20 These pass as Lusitanian or Celtic, however the detail of the horse fibula hints at Celtiberian.

2:27 These are Iberians, not Lusitanians.

3:02 A Gallaecian on the left, possibly a Lusitanian on the right, there's a Turdetanian on the middle, the rest are Iberians.
Note that the Viriathus actively fought AGAINST the Iberians and Turdetanians, who were allies of Rome during the Lusitanian wars. Not alongside them.

3:36 Unlikely Lusitanian, or even period-appropriate.

3:43 Unlikely Lusitanian, or even period-appropriate

4:00 Possibly Lusitanian or Celt.

4:03 Balearic Iberians, not Lusitanian.

4:17 Mostly Iberians, notably one Celt in the middle, likely Celtiberian possibly Lusitanian.

4:25 Iberian on the horse, Iberian, possibly Celtiberian on the right, neither Lusitanian

4:40 Gallaecian, although it could pass as Lusitanian or Asturian.

4:49 Fantasy Romano-Celtiberian hybrid.

5:21 Possibly Lusitanians or Celtiberians on the right.

5:27 Balearic Iberians, not Lusitanian.

5:43 Fantasy Armor

6:26 Passes as Lusitanian.

6:35 and onwards, anacronistic armors typical of renaissance paintings.

7:35 Fantasy Greek-Celtiberian hybrid

7:47 Possibly Lusitanians

8:32 Lusitanian or Celtiberian on the left.
Iberian in the middle.
Celt or Lusitanian on the Right Walls are distinctively Celtiberian however.

8:55 Iberian soldiers and Iberian walls on the background, definitely not Lusitanian.

Overall Score:
Better than average ngl.

So, these are what the famous ocean liner was named after.

[ChuckHackney]

Learned so much about the Lusitanians, as ancient Rome, both the republic and the empire constantly fascinate me. So I learned for the first time about Viriato. I figured it would become the province of Lusitania. So, a small question: Is Lusitania honored in Portuguese history today? Smaller question: Is this where the ship the Lusitania got its name? Just wondering?

[Leticia-tivg]

Very enlightening video, I ended up here after inquiring about the origins of the Portuguese language, and I’m Mexican😅😅

[jamesevans]

From what I read Portuguese identity didn't exist as separate from other Iberian/Spanish people until the Reconquista and only came about because of a family dispute, so an accident really, not long-forgotten Lusitanian tribal affiliation. What became Northern Portugal was governed by the daughter of the king of Leon and her husband who ended up later falling out with her sister Queen of Leon and so parted ways to eventual independence....

On those times to be a sheperd of its own cattle it was one high profession. Also in Wales and British isles.
