This is an old six part series made by BBC and aired on the history channel in 1991 or 1992, narrated by Jack Perkins. We only have the first two episodes, the rest was lost in a fire. If anyone knows where we can get the rest (preferably with Jack Perkins narrating) please comment or best if you have it please upload and leave a link in comments. Thanks ever so much! Yes we know it was remade in 2012 but we prefer the original.

In reaction to the comments on the mellow jazz used in the last bronze age swords video, I have gone to the other farcical extreme and used wildly over-the-top action music. You may now decide that you preferred the jazz. I forgot to measure the Gundlingen and Naue swords, I'm afraid, but you can see roughly their length by comparison with the Wilburton. All swords shown owned by Mick Skelly, who, as you have probably guessed, was sitting just out of shot. A curious thing about these videos is how the title plates are my usual cream writing on a red-brown background, and yet for some reason when I upload them to YouTube, they change to almost black and white. If anyone knows why this happens, do tell. www.LloydianAspects.co.uk

Aegean civilization is a general term for the Bronze Age civilizations of Greece around the Aegean Sea. There are three distinct but communicating and interacting geographic regions covered by this term: Crete, the Cyclades and the Greek mainland. Crete is associated with the Minoan civilization from the Early Bronze Age. The Cyclades converge with the mainland during the Early Helladic ("Minyan") period and with Crete in the Middle Minoan period. From ca. 1450 BC (Late Helladic, Late Minoan), the Greek Mycenaean civilization spreads to Crete. The curtain-wall and towers of the Mycenaean citadel, its gate with heraldic lions, and the great "Treasury of Atreus" had borne silent witness for ages before Heinrich Schliemann's time; but they were supposed only to speak to the Homeric, or, at farthest, a rude Heroic beginning of purely Hellenic civilization. It was not until Schliemann exposed the contents of the graves which lay just inside the gate, that scholars recognized the advanced stage of art which prehistoric dwellers in the Mycenaean citadel had attained. There had been, however, a good deal of other evidence available before 1876, which, had it been collated and seriously studied, might have discounted the sensation that the discovery of the citadel graves eventually made. Although it was recognized that certain tributaries, represented for example, in the XVIIIth Dynasty tomb of Rekhmara at Egyptian Thebes as bearing vases of peculiar forms, were of some Mediterranean race, neither their precise habitat nor the degree of their civilization could be determined while so few actual prehistoric remains were known in the Mediterranean lands. Nor did the Aegean objects which were lying obscurely in museums in 1870, or thereabouts, provide a sufficient test of the real basis underlying the Hellenic myths of the Argolid, the Troad and Crete, to cause these to be taken seriously. Aegean vases have been exhibited both at Sèvres and Neuchatel since about 1840, the provenance (i.e. source or origin) being in the one case Phylakope in Melos, in the other Cephalonia. Ludwig Ross, the German archaeologist appointed Curator of the Antiquities of Athens at the time of the establishment of the Kingdom of Greece, by his explorations in the Greek islands from 1835 onwards, called attention to certain early intaglios, since known as Inselsteine; but it was not until 1878 that C. T. Newton demonstrated these to be no strayed Phoenician products. In 1866 primitive structures were discovered on the island of Therasia by quarrymen extracting pozzolana, a siliceous volcanic ash, for the Suez Canal works. When this discovery was followed up in 1870, on the neighbouring Santorin (Thera), by representatives of the French School at Athens, much pottery of a class now known immediately to precede the typical late Aegean ware, and many stone and metal objects, were found. These were dated by the geologist Ferdinand A. Fouqué, somewhat arbitrarily, to 2000 B.C., by consideration of the superincumbent eruptive stratum.

Time Travellers: Bells of the Bronze Age (History Documentary) Studies of 2,500-year-old musical instruments found in the excavated tomb of a Chinese ruler from the Bronze Age suggest that the complexity and sophistication of music and musical instruments in ancient China was much greater than previously believed, according to articles in the most recent issue of Archaeology magazine. The tomb contained percussion, string and wind instruments in a remarkable state of preservation, including the largest assemblage of Bronze Age bells ever recovered. Discovered in 1977, near the city of Suizhou in Hubei Province in central China, the tomb, from the fifth century B.C., has long been considered "one of the most significant archeological discoveries of the 20th century," said Peter A. Young, editor in chief of the magazine.

Nordic Bronze Age - The Egtved Girl

Nordic Bronze Age - The Egtved Girl The Nordic Bronze Age was a period of intensive rock carving activity. These petroglyphs depict important aspects of the society (see the European Prehistoric Rock Art website). Some of these rock carving show people blowing a large, trumpet-like instrument, known as a lur (for example, the site at Kivik, Skåne, Sweden) and a number of these "lurs" have been found. An important find from this period is the Trundholm Sun Chariot, a Late Bronze Age statue of a horse drawing the sun in a chariot. The Bronze Age in southern Scandinavia is the richest period of finds, crafts, creativity and artistic expression. Only in Mycenaean Greece there is an equivalent in findings. In Scandinavia it developed over 1000 years the prime Bronze Age craftsmanship and crafts in Europe. Large quantities of buried amber treasures has been found from Bronze Age Scandinavia. Amber was also a very important commodity in countries around the mediterranean sea. Tutankhamun was buried with an amber held over his heart. Amber was magical during the Bronze Age and was used for jewelry. In the richest graves of Mycenae in Greece, it has been found large collars of amber. Modern analysis shows that those amber comes from the Baltic Sea. Amber seems ta have been the Nordic gold during the Bronze Age. The Egtved Girl In 1921 a burial mound at Egtved was excavated. In it was found a completely preserved coffin, and inside it lay a 16-18 year old girl about 160cm (5'4") tall, slim, with long, loose blonde hair and carefully trimmed nails. For burial she had been laid in the coffin, fully dressed, on top of a cow-skin. Her upper body was clad in a loose bodice with elbow length sleeves and around her hips she wore a knee length skirt of string. On her braided woollen belt were a large, spiral-decorated bronze disk with a spike and a bronze comb. Small pieces of woollen cloth were wrapped about her feet. She wore bronze bracelets on her wrists. A bundle of rags containing the burned bones of a 5-6 year old child (perhaps a sacrifice?) had been placed at the end of the coffin. At the head end there was a small box made of birch-bark containing her hairnet, an awl and a few bronze pins among other things. Before the coffin was closed the girl's body had been covered by a woollen blanket and a cow-skin. On this a bark bucket had been placed, containing a fermented drink, a kind of beer or mead brewed from what, cranberries and honey. Before the coffin was closed a sprig of flowering yarrow was dropped into the coffin, showing she was buried during the summer. Dendrochronology (tree-ring dating) has shown the burial took place in the year 1370BC. The Egtved girl's outfit was reconstructed for the National Museum of Denmark at the Lejre Archaeological Centre a few years ago, and shows that in many ways the outfit looked remarkably modern. Women often wear a large bronze belt plate on the stomach and bronze jewellery in the shape of arm bands, clothes pins and ornamental bronze plates known as tutuli. Daggers are found in both men's and women's graves. Whether they were men, women or children, great care for the dead was shown during the interment. Borum Eshøj mummies, the Skrydstrup Woman and the Egtved Girl, who were all found inside burial mounds, or tumulus. They lie in oak coffins, dressed in their clothes and with their grave goods, just as they were buried in mounds more than 3000 years ago. Nerthus a female or mother goddess is believed to have been widely worshipped. In Norse mythology, Sól is the personified goddess of the Sun, the corresponding Old English name is Siȝel [ˈsɪjɛl]), continuing reconstructed Proto-Germanic *Sôwilô or *Saewelô. The Old High German Sun goddess is Sunna. Every day, Sól rode through the sky on her chariot, pulled by the two horses Arvak and Alsvid. The sun chariot has been interpreted as representing a Bronze Age predecessor to the goddess. Remnants of the Bronze Age religion and mythology are believed to exist in Germanic mythology and Norse mythology; e.g., Skinfaxi and Hrímfaxi and Nerthus, Sól and it is believed to itself be descended from an older "Indo-European" prototype. http://freya.theladyofthelabyrinth.com/?page_id=89 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egtved_Girl Music: Joanie Madden - Celtic Twilight.
