Correct.

Start with the Greeks and especially start with their mythology. You should read the Odyssey and Illiad and study the whole Trojan Cycle if you really want to understand their culture, especially since that story links to the mythological founding of Rome through the Aeneid. Then just focus on Athens and branch out since that was the main city-state in Greece.

Herodotus.
Thucydides.

Keep in mind the former is mostly tall tales, but widely believed ones. Thucydides, on the other hand, is the first proper historian. Very insightful, yet easy to follow.

>>2978665
Related, how much latin and greek do you have to know if you want to do a degree classics?

>>2978622
Yes

The Anglos were once a very sincere people before cheeky Willy trolled them with his pretend retreats at Hastings and then flooded their island with frogs. As usual, the French are the true villains here and the Anglos are victims themselves just like you.

Not the OP, but I'm also interested in this.

>>2980695
Oh. It's good that you didn't just say "I'm also interested in this", or we would've mistaken you for a Siamese twin.

>>2980722
Not him but there's nothing more pathetic than samefagging your own thread.

That Jesus has long hair

Or that Jesus was pure and made in God's image and didn't take steps to alter it? I guess by cutting his hair.

But that is just some bullshit I made

>>2978547
People generally wore their hair like that back then in Judaea.

Here is a quality source too, if it's even necessary.

Should science fact be denied for moral belief? To me the answer is clearly no, and any real student of the humanities should agree.

No because the fact that there are genetic differences between populations separated for 1000s of years has been generally accepted since Darwin. The problem is James Watson didn't let the facts speak fo themselves, as a good scientist should, instead letting out a tirade of embarrassing comments that only muddied the water as far as public acceptance of genetics is concerned.

History and jazz fusion. My two favourite things.

I am perplexed by your statement. Your two favorite things are: "History and jazz fusion". I comprehend the former, but the later is what I found issue with.

I put forward three questions to hopefully solve this issue. The first two are free response and the last is Y/N.

1. Is one of you favorite things specifically "jazz fusion" or is it simply Jazz.

2. If your answer to No. 1 is "jazz fusion". Are you unable to enjoy Jazz to the extent that you enjoy motion pictures with "jazz fusion".

3. Were you born Autistic?

Thank you in advance for your helpful answer.

why does everyone like this guys videos they are so shit and annoying

and i usually like shitty content

A gayboy that dragged his armies without proper planning into the unknown and made it out because his advisors and generals did all the heavy lifting for him?

Here's hoping there will never be another.

Is that the guy whom's biggest dream was to live in a wine barrel?

>Alexander the Great
>was actually 5'2"

It depends on each person's views of what a good orator. Personally I find that whole hand-waving, shouting and lots of inflection stuff in a speech off-putting.

Hitler is widely considered to be one of, if not the best, orator of all time. What makes you think that he wasn't?

>>2978270
he defiantly has more charisma than the politician's of today , if he kept to the futurist shit and not the rantings of race I bet he would have been the best

never have seen anything like it anywhere, must be extra-terrestrial

Me too, got interested when i read that the Arabians cut their hair "skin tight" on their temples, with the top being obviously "Woolly". I think it was Herodotus.

Any good books/documentaries/videos/sources?

This is a really good list:

What are they going to do this time around? Charge a line of entrenched machine gun crews with their motorcycles?

WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT TALKIN ABOUT MA CLAN

They're not all the same. One of the more expensive obscure ones that gives me full maternal and paternal haplogroups is supposed to be the best, I forget the name. 23andme is supposed to be pretty lackluster I think.
