  1. As each civilization rises and falls throughout history it is fascinating to learn of the first one. As usual, we learn of it from above. We learn of the gods and kings, the priests and scribes. One

  2. If i could go back in time it would to go back to this civilization that inspired the stories of the Old Testament. May all the peoples of Sumer who had a genuine heart and soul be free in paradise🙏🛐💕

  3. I could have sworn I have seen your work on the BBC, or it certainly feels like it. Thanks so much. What an amazing video, channel, and content. Will look for your podcast.

  4. Excellent work lads ….. I'd put you up there with David Attenborough … And that's saying something in my book …… Pure Quality have watched everyone in the series at least three times love them ……… Go raibh maith agat

  5. SHOCKING HOW THEY SPEND YEARS TRYING TO DISCOVER WHATS WRITTEN IN SCRIPTURES LONG AGO, BUT THEY PRETEND TO BE UNAWARE, ALWAYS ENDING UP PROVING SCRIPTURES COREECT YET THEY STILL WONT BELIEVE WHAT IS WRITTEN. THEYRE AKIN TO THE GNATS OF HISTORY WITH CRAZY MADE UP IDEAS OF EVOLUTION AND WORSE

  6. A blessing to listen and watch this documentary. Thank you so much. I always knew the rise and fall of the Sumerians had nothing to do with aliens but just geological priveleges and then climate changes.
    I also believe their culture didnt totally assimilate with those of the Akkadian and other cultures.
    They might have migrated to other regions as well like India. The people of Punjab for example look exactly like them. And I wonder of the Urdu language has similarities with those from the Sumerian cities, like Ur.
    Anyway I want to thank your channel and the archeologists for restoring my faith in humanity. No aliens involved here.

  7.

I am extremely lucky i am muslim and prayd before sleeping. It woke me up and i realised it was an attempt of hypnotism. la howla wala quwwata illa billa. There is no power except th power of Allah

  8. So beautifully and brilliantly written, with the most moving and informative pictures. Paul Cooper has made it insightful and thoughtful enough for us to feel the glory of success and the pathos of the fall of a great civilization….

  9. in india we have the same story of half fish and half human which is the Avatara of God Vishnu who comes to help Manu during the great flood. he advises manu to build a great ship which can accomodate the animals , seeds n rishis….
