The Mystery Of Ancient Libya's Lost Civilization | Journeys To The Ends Of The Earth | Real History


Libya is Africa’s last great unknown. A vast desert country veiled from the West by fear, prejudice and misunderstanding. Once it was home to the richest cities in Africa. The headquarters for the African empires of Rome & Greece. Now it is reviled as “a desert with a dictator in it”. David Adams follows in the wheel tracks of Ancient…

  1. Worst documentary iv ever watched. He made two unbelievable mistakes in the first 4 minutes. Firstly he clearly forgot that Egypt was named long before Libya as was Carthage. Then he stated that Libya had the longest Mediterranean coastline. Greece has far more actually seventh in the world and Algeria even had a longer coastline. Find a new job quick

  2. The amount of microagressions towards Najat/Nagat (sp?) is almost unbearable… but it is an Australian man in the late 90's/early 2000's. Also, take a shot for every time this man says chariot LOL. Interesting documentary, to say the least.

  3. I think David and her got along really well. Shame things are so, umm, complicated there. Things sure did change after good ol’ Moamar was taken out. I wish David was still making these documentaries he was one of the best

  4. what truly puzzles me. is the need to see a picture of a Chariot in a part of the Romans empire. I don't see how an automobile is different truly. If they reached the ends of the British empire, the Roman wall in Britannia it very much seems inevitable, wherever the horse less carriage Chariot goes the horse carriage Chariot once did. They still like their camels…. way out where they don't act roman or British or European. I mean it just seems like a common sense thing… but I suppose…. nothing is common sense these days.

  5. I wonder if the journalist really believes that no betting is happening here. There is outright gambling, but also religious leader-approved loopholes to gambling, lending for profit, avoiding the fast and just about every mandate in Islam. Yes, Libyans love horses, but make no mistake that big money is placed on every race.

  6. Excellent work David. I was particulary pleased by the beautiful occasional background musics which are real composition not some pop jingle with 3 chords, very well edited. Your work of course is more than just photography, you're an explorer, ambassador, adventurer, diplomat and artist. I particularly like to watch your diplomacy communicating with the people of the local culture without falling into stereotypes of tourist or colonialist or hegemonic anglo saxon traveller (which is actually more a reality than a stereotype for united statians and english speaking travellers generally). You have a good touch with people, although on the sober and cold side but probably justifiably cautious in this muslim environment especially with that gorgeous Lybian guide woman. I have no clue what went through her head and what her expectations were for this journey, maybe she is just a pawn, and you were very careful. The cameraman does an excellent job.
