When I die I hope I can watch the history of the world at any point and location, knowing thoughts of those I watch and understanding of all languages.

When I visited Jericho back in 71, there was an archeologist there with his family. He was explaining the dig to his wife and kids. It was fascinating.

I visited Jericho back in December of 2018. I enjoyed it for all the normal reasons, but also one I didn't expect: the bananas and oranges I got from a street vendor were some of the best I'd ever had! I bought three kilos of each and brought them back to share with my Airbnb host/roommates in Ramallah.

It's so refreshing to watch videos like this in that it describes what evidence has been found. Though there are many gaps in the historical record, one thing is clear....people have been here for a very, very long time. I also appreciate the fact that the producers of this video chose not to suggest that "ancient aliens" were partly responsible for man's development and knowledge. I'm so sick of hearing how aliens came here and began all this, then left.

As a Near Eastern archaeologist, I thank and congratulate you for this excellent succinct history of an important site that sums up human development for millennia. It was your documentary on Doggerland that first attracted my attention; Keep up the great work!

I think people are missing the point here about Jericho being the oldest city, it should be the oldest continuously settled city, whilst not the oldest, it is still settled.

Pete, I highly encourage you to introduce yourself on your docs and include credits on your films so when they are shown to audiences, they will know right away who is presenting the piece.

A few facts from the Bible that might help shed some light; The first battle after the crossing of the Jordan was the Battle of Jericho. Joshua led the destruction of Jericho, then moved on to Ai, a small neighboring city to the west. However, they were defeated with thirty-six Israelite deaths. The defeat was attributed to Achan taking an "accursed thing" from Jericho; and was followed by Achan and his family and animals being stoned to death to restore God's favor. Joshua then went to defeat Ai. The Israelites faced an alliance of five Amorite kings from Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon. At Gibeon, Joshua asked the LORD to cause the sun and moon to stand still, so that he could finish the battle in daylight. According to the text, the sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. This event is most notable because "There has been no day like it before or since, when the LORD heeded the voice of a man, for the Lord fought for Israel."[36] The LORD also fought for the Israelites in this battle, for he hurled huge hailstones from the sky which killed more Canaanites than those which the Israelites slaughtered. From there on, Joshua was able to lead the Israelites to several victories, securing much of the land of Canaan. He presided over the Israelite gatherings at Gilgal and Shiloh which allocated land to the tribes of Israel (Joshua 14:1–5 and 18:1–10), and the Israelites rewarded him with the Ephraimite city of Timnath-heres or Timnath-serah, where he settled (Joshua 19:50).

As a long time documentary junkie, yours are appreciated for research, organization, applicable photography, and a pleasant speaking voice and cadence which is not overtaken by the volume of the music. Keep going kind sir! 💕🐝🇺🇸☃️

What a wonderfully refreshing documentary! Thank you! I am a lifelong history student, it started in very early grade school and now I’m 73 and still going strong. I now live in Texas but was born and raised in Wels, Austria, formerly known as Ovilaba in the Roman province of Noricum, and it was there where I started sniffing around old ruins and checking out museums. Thank you again and keep up the good work!

The more I learn about history of our civilization, anthropology, and the religions of the world the more I am inspired to be a human being, and very proud of everything we have done since the beginning of history. Recently we discovered a Venus sculpture in morocco dated 500,000 years old probably made by homo erectus. This is tremendous find to show that symbolic thinking was within those species for the past 2 million years, including sacrificial, rituals and language.
