📽️ New Ancient Americas video just dropped—this time on the Chumash!

Highly recommend if you're into deep-cut Indigenous history before Columbus. Not the usual Cherokee/Iroquois/Sioux rehash—this dives into coastal California, tomols, shell currency, and more.

The Chumash deserve more attention.

I think the 3rd Century BC is the most neglected Century by both History YouTubers and Historical Fiction.

This century is the Peak Golden Age of Hellenistic Civilization, of both Antioch and Alexandria and of the Old Stoa.

It's also a Century where for most of which Carthage was still the dominant Sea Power of the Mediterranean.

And then there's Rome. The Roman Republic was never the ideal state the Patrician Optimates imagined it to have been. But if there was ever a time when it was relatively stable and the Plebians relatively appeased it was the generation or two following the Lex Hortensia being passed in 287 BC. This is also when Rome dominated Italy but hasn't spread beyond it much yet.

The most talked part of this Century is the Second Punic War and First Macedonian War at it's end, with the first Punic War relegated to just Hannibal's Backstory rather then interesting history in it's own right.

And all that is still within the context of having a very Western bias. In Japan this century was dominated by Emperor Korei who I don't think anyone has made an Anime about.
