Hello, people.
With a recent video about Celtic warriors and weapons, this topic has now been covered. Give it a watch, if you haven't already.
And while there are some other topics about prehistoric periods I would love to cover in future videos (specifically the evolution of money - from bronze ingots to first coins), I have already decided for the next series of video, for which I'm very excited. 😊
I don't think the next topic will come as a big surprise, considering the chronological continuity and just how big it is.
It was quite hustle to find a unique angle to keep it interesting, and it will take a long time to cover it in detail, but I am very much looking forward to this next part of the journey. And I will be most happy if you will join me too.
Thank you to all who have joined me so far, be it for a long time, or just recently.
See you again soon.

Hello people.
In addition to the previous video about Celtic graves and burials, I also wanted to create a video about the mystery of their group burials - a phenomenon that still has more questions and answers. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough visual material to cover it in a video, but I think it deserves to be examined and could be as interesting to you, as it was to me. So here we go:
One interesting example of Celtic graves is the double, or even larger, burial. These are usually couples, and even their young children. Such graves were discovered across Europe, though the circumstances of their creation probably differ.
Caesar describes that in a Celtic society, a man had power over the life and death of his wife, as well as children. He also describes a sacrifice of slaves and other lower-ranking individuals on the grave of a warrior.
He writes: "Their funerals, considering the state of civilization among the Gauls, are magnificent and costly; and they cast into the fire all things, including living creatures, which they suppose to have been dear to them when alive; and, a little before this period, slaves and dependants, who were ascertained to have been beloved by them, were, after the regular funeral rites were completed, burnt together with them."
Perhaps it was a custom for such warriors to take their family with them into the afterlife. Though in some instances, these large graves also included rich grave goods, particularly of whole animals, like a wild boar. These could indicate an attempt to calm angered gods and stop potential natural disasters or epidemics.
We will probably never fully know.

New video is up!
Learn how ancient Greeks and Romans viewed Celts and whether or not they were really savage barbarians, or was there more to them.

History in the heart of Europe.
I'm just a person who loves history. That doesn't mean I am an expert or that I have a degree in a specific field. But history is something I've loved for years and I would love to share it with you. Especially the obscure parts of history in the heart of Europe, which you would usually not hear about, but can be just as much interesting.
Here you will find videos that deal with the continental history of Europe, with some that deal specifically with the territory of present-day Slovenia. Because of its important strategic position and geography, this land has always had a fascinating, but overlooked past.
Besides that, you will learn about continental past, evolution of warriors, development of weapons and tools throughout history, and deep-dives into prominent artifacts and scriptures.
Whether you are a fellow history buff, or just a newcomer who is passing by, you are welcome all the same. I wish you a wonderful stay. :)
