The sea people who a nomadic society that raided various costal cities. They were big for their attempts to raid Egypt under Ramesses III. The better question is who are they today and where did they come from?
Included is a map of their raids.

No one knows for certain but surely Aegean people were involved such as the Philistines, Ekwesh (Achaioi) and Denyen (Danaoi)
The Lukka who were allied to them were Lycians.
The Shekelesh and Sherden are a complete mystery, some scholars have associated them to Sardinians and Sicilians because of their names and because those islands were well connected to the Eastern Med through trade around the same exact period the same people showed up.
The Weshesh, Tjekker and Tursha are a complete mystery.

Given the map you have shown, is it possible that they could have been some early celtic tribes?

When did France overtake Italy economically, both per capita and overall? I've heard the date as the sixteenth century, but that seems really late.
>>2676011
Well I mean it might be 16th century if you took all of the territory of modern Italy but remember there were many states in this area.
>implying they have overtaken the part that matters
North and Central Italy is still richer than France. Terronia is Africa.

Why isn't it illegal to lie?
What if you misunderstand a piece of information and pass it to someone else. Wouldn't that be a lie?

Because then everyone would be in jail
It should be. People don't even have to tell the truth, they should just have to perform due diligence whenver they make a statement (as is required when signing a business contract etc) - eliminate all bias, error, deceit, wishful thinking from your speech. If you can't do that then don't say something, or state that you haven't performed due diligence. The informational commons needs to be given protections from pseudoscience
I know I'm gonna get shit for this but I was remembering my younger years when I played medieval total war and I was thinking that there wasn't any real purpose for joining a crusade. It was too much trouble and in the end it didn't even make a difference. It was better to just stay put in Europe and ignore the pope.
This made me think about actual crusades...
I know that there was a big deal of religious zeal and Glory that motivated crusaders, but what about the kings and heads of states?
What was their objective on joining a crusade? Only personal glory? Was there any economical profit one could get from, I don't know, conquering Acre or something?
And Crusades General I guess.
>>2675879
The pope was handing out get out of Hell free cards and absolution for all previous sins. Many people looking through a modern lens like to make the assumption that nobody ever really believed any of that stuff, but this was a very big deal.
This was also before the mongol conquests and the middle east was still very rich.
people were really pious then. Henry II of England made a public penance after having the archbishop of Canterbury killed, Louis IX of France made two personal crusades to absolve himself of sins he felt he had done.
Good answers.
Please tell me more.

What does /his/ think about Maoris?
Did they do anything wrong? Compared to other natives the relationship between settelers and Maori was quite good, why was this
>>2675831
Settlers*
Their mythology is metal as fuck.

Look up the moriori and what happened to them.
SPOILERS: the moriori were an extremely pacifist tribe that separated itself from the maori. After a while, the maori went to the moriori lands, killed/enslaved/ate them all.
Can someone clarify some things about the Bible for me?
Why does God seemingly look out only after the direct descendants of Abraham and not the other people? Why are the Jews the chosen ones? Why is the Old Testament so brutal and badass?
>>2675800
Because God only looks after Christians, who are the true Israel and true God's chosen people. The OT is merely a metaphorical prefiguration through more or less legendary characters of the state of affairs that would be in effect with Christ and the church when the fullness of time were to pass.
The brutality of the OT is to give a taste of God's righteousness and zeal, and to inspire fear and therefore prudence and faith. It also allows for just war doctrine.
>>2675800
Because the other tribes were retards and didn't expect God's love and help.
Do statues like these prove Egyptians were black? At least some kind of black?
In other topics people call even mixed latinos black but when it comes to Egypt everything changes.
>>2675755
DNA evidence states that Egyptians were more closely related to a blend of Greco-Aramaic peoples of today.
>Many Egyptian pharaohs were so inbred, they developed odd features such as the broader lips as shown on the statue.
>>2675897
I don't think they've done any real DNA tests on mummies yet. The Egyptian government doesn't allow it
>>2675897
But which Egyptians from which era?
>>Many Egyptian pharaohs were so inbred, they developed odd features such as the broader lips as shown on the statue.
Since the beginning?
There are a lot of statues that have negroid features

What happened to this legion? Why does it just simply disappear from history?
>>2675703
Probably just got disbanded
>>2675720
Legions didn't just get disbanded for no good reason, like a massive military disgrace.
Either they were destroyed north of the frontier in Britain in the 110s or in one of the eastern wars around that time. I would hazard a guess that part of the reason Hadrian decided to, uniquely amongst border fortifications, build Hadrian's Wall on the British frontier, was to act as a powerful symbol to the northern tribes, potentially to try and counteract the lowered prestige the Romans were suffering after losing a full legion.
Some detachments are supposed to have been stationed elsewhere but with the loss of the main legion, were absorbed into other armies.
>>2675703
Destroyed, or at least mauled and disbanded, in the Bar Kokhba revolt.
Why did he have to die?
It was literally impossible to win for him anyway
His position was heavily exaggerated because of his death. He was literally a literally who and the thought that people think he could have been president is laughable.
>>2675724
Yeah, just like Trump was going to pack it in last year right?
You people always prance around about every subject and pretend this track the train took is the way IT MUST HAPPEN CUZZZZZ. In reality you're guessing at the void like everyone else.
I don't know if this is the right board but I think so since I'm asking about things from historical perspective.
I wonder how will (current) internet be perceived by art historians in upcomingdecades and centuries? Will they just brush them off aside or will they be looked at as a serious art movement?
After all some of them not that different from things like dadaism and are infinitely creative due to sheer amount of them

I think that instead of remembering the internet they will remember phases of mass-communication be put into effect. In other words, the internet of the 80's is nothing like the internet of the 2010's, so they'll be separated and defined by how much access people have to it and how much access it has to everything else. Overall it'll be remembered as the period where we "linked up", so to speak, and the age of the isolated person ended.
There's a thing with religion that's been on my mind for some time, for example Islam. I will illustrate with a specific example but the concept I'm thinking of goes beyond the example and is of a more general character.
In Islam there is a view that certain acts are sins, and one of the punishments for sinning is that other people hate you.
But at the same time for example if you hate your mother, that is a sin.
Let's say your mother sinned, and you hating her is a punishment she is receiving for her sin.
There's an element of does free will exist or not in this matter.
>>2675662
Cite where this js in the Quran
free will still exists, in the same way that you would still have free will if you stubbed your toe and you said ow
to hate sin is a reflex, choice doesn't come into it
>>2675662
I'm pretty sure Islam rejects free will

Hey can anybody show me any proof that Ghaddafi was well liked in LIbya. It seems like I can never find the proof of anything based on Libya. Some people claim that the people overthrew him from revolting, but other people say that Libya had great living conditions. I just want to know the truth so badly because If it turns out that the people liked him then they are obviously trying to replicate the same deveption in Syria. As they also did in Iraq. If there is any research or books I can read to help prove that the people of Libya liked Ghaddafi then id love to read it thanks.
>>2675481
"My people love me." - Ghaddafi
All the proof you need, OP.
>>2675481
If they all 100% liked him, he would've won despite all the help from the West.
Except it wasn't the case.
Consider the fact that when the Civil War statrted, he broke open the armories and distributed arms to civilians, thinking that "his bibol loev him" and would defend him. Turns out many of them used it to fuck him up and Benghazi became a rallying point for rebs.
>>2675490
Lol thats bulshit. The west can overcome all of these nations.
