Welcome to The Ancient World series! This series is meant to summarize broad topics in history and balances political history and events, with social/daily life, and culture. If you've watched our History of the World documentary, this series is a perfect next step. The videos are standalone, but presented in a chronological fashion. The series will be divided into 5 videos about the Ancient Period, which we call Phase 1. Upcoming videos in the current Phase will be placed at the end of these videos. Once these 5 videos are completed, we will move onto Phase 2, but this project will be considered completed, and compiled into ONE video containing all 5 parts.
THIS VIDEO IS FROM PHASE 1 OF OUR WORLD HISTORY SUMMARIZED SERIES

Do you believe the Indo-Aryans migrated to India or did they originate there?
-
Women of ancient india studied scriptures, to name few famous female scholars like Gargi, Maitreyi, Madalsa and Bharti and their famous discourses and arguments with famous Scholars like yagwalkya, Mandan is well illustrated. Best wishes
-
0:13 you say the Indian subcontinent yet you only show the modern natuon of India without even showing the disputed territory. Indian subcontinent, especially in the context of ancient India should include modern countries like India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan and Sri Lanka. Otherwise, good video
-
I love India. Great people with amazing history.
-
9:43 The Sanskrit term varna is derived from the root vṛ, meaning "to cover, to envelop, count, classify consider, describe or choose"
-
In Kerala "Marumakathayam" existed matriarchal society in kingdom of Travancore and in kingdom of Cochin.
-
Thanks man this really helped!!
-
You should include Pakistan, Bangladesh will talking about Indian subcontinent,Sri Lanka can also be added. Edit: Territory conquered by Ashoka has nothing to do with modern India, I included sri lanka because of shared cultural identity and chola empire conquering sri lanka. As a south Indian for me,Chola empire >>>>>>>Mauryan Empire , no offense to Ashoka
-
Varna does not always mean colour. For example Sanskrit alphabet is called varna-mala where is colour here. Every Sanskrit word has numerous meaning. Meaning depend on context.
-
The sculpture of shiva / Pashupatinath in meditative posture is also from this period. So not just a fertility god but yoga and adiyogi are very much a part of this culture already
-
Excellent summary! Well done!
-
Excellent
-
20:20 Buddhism didn't reject Varna system completed. Buddhism also has Verna system. The sequence is Kshatriya, Brahmin, Vaishya, Shudra. So, Budhism keeps Kshatriyas on top and Hinduism keeps Brahmins on top.
-
watched all of it, good history lesson
-
excellent presentation. thanks.
-
excellent
-
Great information video. Thanks from Kathmandu
-
Sorry to say... But women were not kept away from vedas. Gargi and maitreyi both find themselves mentioned in Upanishads discussing meta physics with yagyavalka... Not to mention the atharvaveda was partly created by a woman
-
MAHABHARAT is our history, its living evidences can be found easily and here 7:34 these all Janapadas actually are part of Mahabharat.
