Ancient history is the aggregate of past events from the beginning of recorded human history and extending as far as the Early Middle Ages or the Postclassical Era. The span of recorded history is roughly 5,000 years, beginning with Sumerian Cuneiform script, the oldest discovered form of coherent writing from the protoliterate period around the 30th century BC.
The term classical antiquity is often used to refer to history in the Old World from the beginning of recorded Greek history in 776 BC (First Olympiad). This roughly coincides with the traditional date of the founding of Rome in 753 BC, the beginning of the history of ancient Rome, and the beginning of the Archaic period in Ancient Greece. Although the ending date of ancient history is disputed, some Western scholars use the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD (the most used), the closure of the Platonic Academy in 529 AD, the death of the emperor Justinian I in 565 AD, the coming of Islam or the rise of Charlemagne as the end of ancient and Classical European history.

Plot: A bag full of symbolic folklore about werewolves, or, rather, their sexual connotation. Granny tells her granddaughter Rosaleen strange, disturbing tales about innocent maidens falling in love with handsome, heavily eyebrowed strangers with a smoldering look in their eyes; about sudden disappearances of spouses when the moon is round & the wolves are howling in the woods; about babies found inside stork eggs, in a stork nest high up a tree; etc., etc. Of course the story of Little Red Ridinghood is also present, with a very handsome he-wolf! (And of course this he-wolf consumes Grandmother, but 'consumes' Little Red Ridinghood). All the stories are somehow reducible to loss of innocence, and fear of/hunger for (a newly acquired sense of) sexuality; their Freudian character is mirrored in their dreamlike shapes. This movie is not really a horror movie; it's more a multiple tale about growing up into adolescence.

Plot: In 1886, the gunman and gambler Tom Early returns to his homeland to settle down, but he is rejected by his community. He rides to his farm, where he finds that his wife Alice has recently died and his son Tom Early Jr., who disagrees with taking up arms, is working alone. The next morning, Tom rides into the town to buy supplies and sees Sam, the grocer, humiliating his employee Jo. At the same time the cattle lord Grimsell arrives in town with two gunfighters, Gunn and Blondie, and tells the Preacher that he will be crossing 20,000 head of cattle through their lands and their town. Although the preacher tries to explain that the people own the land, Grimsell is not interested in their rights. When Blondie sees Tom Early, he draws his gun but is shot by Tom, in self defense, and kills the gunman. He then invites Jo to work on the farm. While the Preacher wants to send an emissary to Laramie to bring the law to his town, Grimsell summons more than thirty gunfighters to work for him. When the emissary is murdered by Gunn, the naive Preacher organizes a posse to unsuccessfully fight against Grimsell. The farmers are ambushed and attacked and the survivors return to the town. But Tom Early decides to provoke a stampede and fight against Grimsell.

Genres: Western,Hey guys, so a few months back I shared with you the story of adventurous geologists who had trekked far into the cold wildernesses of Russia, in an effort to catalogue the largest megalithic site on earth. so remote, they are steeped in legends of snow yetis and mysterious monsters devouring all who dare to venture into these remote areas. With strange occurrences such as that of the “die-atlov” pass, which have supported such fears for many years. When I shared the amazing images of these stoned structures, many argued that they were natural formations, maybe because they struggled to conceive such enormous ancient ruins in such remote places. discoveries that seem to be many hundreds of thousands of years old. Maybe even as old as the great sphinx. more and more is being learnt abou...
Today there exists many forbidden theories that aim to explain mankind’s speedy evolution. The Ancient Astronaut Theory is perhaps one of the most controversial of the bunch. This theory takes researchers back in time to the cradle of civilization in the Middle-East, the ancient land of Mesopotamia. The Sumerian Cuneiform tablets, uncovered in the 17th century, provide modern man with a new understanding of our history. This lost knowledge has been slow to make its way into mainstream thought and is just now beginning to air on television on both the History and Discovery Channels. Accurately decoding the complicated language of the past has taken archaeologists many decades, but fortunately today these ancient artifacts have come to light for all the public to view.
We’ve lost the secret to some of ancient history’s most highly advanced technology, and for all of our ingenuity and discoveries, our ancestors of thousands of years ago are still able to baffle us with their ingenuity and discoveries. We have developed the modern equivalent of some of these ancient inventions, but only very recently. Some of these ancient artifacts are still baffling mainstream science. Based upon his lifelong studies of ancient ruins, lost cities, potential spaceports, and a myriad of hard scientific facts that point to extraterrestrial intervention in human history. Most incredible of all, however, is von Däniken's theory that we ourselves are the descendants of these galactic pioneers - and the archeological discoveries that prove it. Includes remarkable photos that...
Numerous maps have been discovered throughout history that even today remain as an enigma to scholars and skeptics. While most of us are familiar with the work of Piri Reis and his maps, he isn’t the only one to have created charts that remain a mystery to history. Maps like the one by Piri Reis have been validated by scholars who remain baffled and cannot explain their precision and level of detail. Some of them were created as if somehow, someone was able to see the land from the air before drawing the charts… But remember, some of these maps are thousands of years old, and one, in particular, is even older. As you go through all of these maps you have to ask yourself just how were these maps made? How is it possible that they display features that were unknown to man according to mai...

This new documentary investigates the Ogdoad, the eight deities worshipped in Ancient Egypt. As long as humanity has kept records of its existence, legends of a serpent race have persisted. As the documentary explains, the gods of the Ogdoad were mostly seen as humans with their animals' heads, or just depicted as snakes and frogs. In this video you will discover interesting information and research facts about the Ogdoad were contacted using psychdelics. The ancient myths tell of a mysterious race of superhuman reptilian beings who descended from the heavens to participate in creating humankind and to teach the sciences, impart forbidden knowledge, impose social order, breed with us, and watch over our development..
Hi guys, have you ever heard of “Dendera temple”? known as the sixth nome of upper Egypt, it is one of the best preserved, ancient temple complexes on earth, and it bares the scars of what must have been a most frightening, and destructive of events. An event that is ignored by the majority of modern academia. The complex spans some 40,000 square feet, and within the temple is some of the most well preserved ancient artworks of anywhere in Egypt. along with preserving the exquisite art and decorations, the temple also preserved evidence of something we were not taught about in history class. Upon the granite steps which still lead to the temples roof, in direct alignment with a small window cut into the thick stone wall, is evidence of severe melting. at one time in the temples long lif...
Thousands of years ago, advanced technology from an ancient civilization on Earth was lost. The keepers of this technology were regarded as gods. In this video, you will see how the pieces of this puzzle, together with Sumerian, Egyptian and Mayan artwork and symbolism, reveal a shared vision held by these diverse cultures — a vision of the "Stargate of the Gods," which was considered to be a Stairway to Heaven according to their shared beliefs. Analyzes a number of worldwide predictions, symbols, and scientific discoveries to drive a conclusion that there is a beam of some "atomic particles" is about to arrive from the center of Milky Way into our solar system. One must have at least some basic knowledge in ancient mythology, religious philosophy, and NASA discoveries prior to watching t...

From a sky stone no one can explain to the medieval sword with mysterious inscription written on it these artifacts are incredible! Subscribe to Talltanic http://goo.gl/wgfvrr 6. Third Eye Pyramid A stone pyramid, about ten inches tall, was discovered in the jungles of Ecuador in the 1980s. The artifact is part of a collection of objects known as the La Mana artifacts. The stone depicts a series of thirteen stone layers which represent bricks engraved on the front of the item. There is also an inlaid eye carved at the pyramid’s pinnacle. When placed underneath a black light, the thirteen layers of carved bricks and eye at the top shine with a vivid luminescence. The patterns on this object are eerily similar to the image depicted on a U.S. one dollar bill--a pyramid with thirteen ste...
