    This is my favourite history channel and in my top five favourite channels overall. Thank you for your work. Bronze age history is my favourite area of history to study but I struggle to find resources on it.
  • @chrisdooley6468
    Between 2000BCE and say the first century AD there are so many interesting cultures countries and kings in that small area between the Mediterranean and Caspian. It’s a fascinating epoch which is sometimes only really fleshed out in the Old Testament. Keep up the good work
  • @Sandra.Molchanova
    This is the best summary of the Canaanite tribes from the biblical age, now I can finally truly tell the difference between them! Thanks!
  • @AlexanderosD
    Awesome! What an interesting and simple overview! Wish history classes were this easy to comprehend when I was in school.
  • @franciselrojo2922
    I absolutely love your videos and greatly appreciate you for making them. Rock on. ✊

    14:00, Not only did Judah not provoke Assyria, Israel was attacking Judah for not joining in an anti-assyria alliance with them and so Judah sought relief from the Assyrians.
  • @simko8665
    I managed to read the old Hebrew scripts including the Mesha's one and I understood almost all of it as it was written today. Amazing.
  • @fdadachanji4635
    Dude this is awesome. Great supplemental history to what's in the Bible and other historical sources
  • @ArturdeSousaRocha
    That wall of Canaanite script in the background was a nice touch. It occurred to me that someone providing subtitles in some form of Canaanite would be a good in-joke.

    I really enjoyed this Canaan series, I was doing my own researh of Phoenicia and its cool to know what happened in the Levant.
  • @DanoriousTV
    This is getting better and better. Where do you get your sources from, did you eventually studied this?
