Hi there, my name's John Green and this is Crash Course World History.
2
Today we're going to talk about Egypt.
3
No, not that Egypt.
4
Older.
5
Older.
6
Older.
7
Less fictional.
8
Yes! That one.
9
Ancient Egypt is probably the most influential of the River Valley civilizations.
10
Like, you may not recognize any Assyrian kings or Assyrian language, but you probably do know King Tut.
11
And you may recognize that the Eye of Horus is right now staring at me and judging me.
12
I can feel, I can feel your judgment!
13
When we think of ancient civilizations, we think of Egypt.
14
There are a few reasons for this, like the fact that the pyramids are the last man standing among the seven ancient wonders of the world,
15
but more importantly, ancient Egyptian civilization lasted from 3000 BCE to 332 BCE.
16
That's a period that historians call a long-ass time.
17
And I will I'll remind you it is not cursing if I'm talking about donkeys.
18
So there are many approaches to the study of history.
19
You can view history as a millennial-long conversation about philosophy, or as clashes between great men, or you can see history through the lens of traditionally neglected populations,
20
like women, or indigenous peoples, or slaves, and we're going to try to take many approaches to our study of history during Crash Course.
21
Mr. Green!
22
Mr. Green!
23
Mr. Green!
24
Which approach is right?
25
I mean, for the test.
26
Oh, me from the past.
27
Remember how you spent all of third year French writing notes back
28
and forth to that girl and she eventually agreed to go out with you and you did make it to second base, but now you can hardly parle un mot de Francais?
29
Historical lenses are like that, my friend.
30
With every choice, something is gained and something is lost.
31
Right, so in discussing agriculture and early river valley civilizations, we've been approaching history through the lens of resource distribution and geography.
32
And just as the violent and capricious Tigris and Euphrates rivers shaped the worldview of early Mesopotamians, the Nile shaped the worldview of the Egyptians.
33
Let's go to the Thought Bubble.
34
The Nile was regular, navigable, and benign, making for one of the safest and richest agricultural areas in the world.
35
Each summer, the river flooded the fields at precisely the right time, leaving behind nutrient-rich silt for planting season.
36
Planting was so easy that Egyptians just tossed seeds around the silty earth
37
and then let their cattle or pigs walk on it to press the seeds into the ground, and then boom, grain and figs and wheat and pomegranates and melons and joy.
38
Unlike most river valley civilizations, Egyptian communities existed only along the Nile,
39
which was navigable enough to get valuable resources downstream from timber to gold, which the Egyptians considered the divine metal,
40
thereby introducing an idea that would eventually culminate in Mr. T.
41
The Nile is also easily tamed, While other river valley civilizations needed complicated and labor-intensive hydraulic engineering projects to irrigate crops,
42
the Nile was so chill that Egyptians could use a simple form of water management called basin irrigation,
43
in which farmers used floodwaters to fill earthen basins and canals for irrigation.
44
In short, the awesomeness of the Nile meant Egyptians could create big food surpluses with relatively little work, allowing time and energy for some pretty impressive projects.
45
Also the Nile may help explain ancient Egypt's general optimism.
46
While ancient Sumerian religion, for instance, saw the afterlife as this gloomy,
47
dark place, Egyptians were often buried with things that were useful and pleasurable to them in life, because the afterlife was seen as a continuation of this life.
48
Which, at least if you lived along the Nile, wasn't half bad.
49
Thanks Thought Bubble.
50
And now, my dear pupils, I shall terrorize you with the oppression of dates.
51
No. Dates.
52
Yes.
53
Thank you.
54
Historians have divided Egyptian history into three broad categories, each with their own numbered dynasties.
55
But only hardcore Egyptologists know the dynasties, and we're not trying to become hardcore Egyptologists.
56
The Old Kingdom lasted from 2649 to 2152.
57
The Middle Kingdom from 2040 to 1640, and the New Kingdom, so-called because it is only 3,000 years old, lasted from 1550 to 1070 BCE.
58
In between you have a couple of so-called intermediate periods.
59
Okay, Old Kingdom.
60
This was really the glory age of Ancient Egypt, when you got all the stuff that would later make Indiana Jones possible, like the pyramids at Giza, and the Sun King Ra,
61
and the idea of divine kingship.
62
The king, or Pharaoh, was either a god or very close to a god, which seems like a good gig, except that it meant he wasn't expected to act like a person, he was expected to act like a god,
63
which in ancient Egypt means acting like the Nile.
64
Calm, cool, benevolent, there's no fun in that.
65
And then of course there are the pyramids, which aside from remaining impressive to behold, represent a remarkable degree of political and social control over the population,
66
because it is not easy to convince people to devote their lives to building a sarcophagus for someone else.
67
The most famous pyramids were built between 2575 and 2465 BCE.
68
The one with the Sphinx was built for Kefren, the largest, the Great Pyramid, was built for the Pharaoh Khufu.
69
The pyramids were built partly by peasants who were required by
70
Egyptian law to work for the government a certain number of months per year, and partly by slaves, but not by Moses
71
and the Jews who showed up on the scene long before the pyramids were ever even a twinkle in Khufu's eye.
72
This leads to an overwhelming question.
73
Why?
74
Why in the sweet name of Ra would anyone ever build such a thing?
75
Well, let's start with Ra.
76
So Ra started out as a regional god reigning over Heliopolis, but he eventually became really central to the entire pantheon of gods in ancient Egypt.
77
He was the god of the sun, but also the god of creation.
78
And the thinking was that if humans did their jobs, then the pantheon of gods would maintain cosmic order.
79
And since the pharaohs became gods upon their death, it made sense to please them, even unto pyramids.
80
Egyptian popular religion also embraced the belief in amulets and magic and divination, and the belief that certain animals, especially cats, had divine power.
81
And yes, I did bring that up just so I could wall cat.
82
Old Kingdom Egypt was also remarkably literate.
83
They had two forms of writing, hieroglyphics for sacred writing, and then demotic script for recording contracts and agreements and other boring stuff.
84
The last thing I want to say about Old Kingdom Egypt, it was ridiculously rich.
85
But then, around 2250 BCE, there were a series of droughts and pharaohs started fighting over who should have power, and we had an intermediate period.
86
Which was followed by the Middle Earth.
87
You know what?
88
The Middle Kingdom?
89
Oh.
90
That's a bummer, Stan.
91
I want it to be the Middle Earth.
92
How awesome would that be?
93
Like, right in the middle of Egyptian history there were hobbits.
94
So the Middle Kingdom, which apparently had no hobbits, restored pharaonic rule in 2040 BCE, but with some distinct changes.
95
First, the new rulers were outsiders from downriver in Nubia.
96
Second, they fostered a new pantheon of gods, the star of which was Amun, which means hidden.
97
So here's a little lesson from history.
98
Hidden gods tend to do well because they're omnipresent.
99
So Amun eventually merged with Ra to form the god Amun-Ra, who was like the best god ever,
100
and all the Middle Kingdom pharaohs made temples for him and devoted all of their surplus to his glory.
101
The Middle Kingdom also developed an interest in conquering, specifically the new pharaoh's homeland of Nubia, and they developed a side interest in getting conquered,
102
specifically by the Semitic peoples from the Levant.
103
They were able to conquer much of Egypt using superior military technology like bronze weapons and compound bows and chariots of fire.
104
What?
105
They're just regular chariots?
106
Stan, why are you always killing my dreams?
107
One group, the Hyksas, were able to conquer all of Egypt, but rather than like destroying Egyptian culture, they just relaxed like the Nile and assimilated into the Egyptians.
108
And the Egyptians adopted their military technology, and then the Egyptians destroyed the Hyksas and expelled them from Egypt.
109
And then by 1550 BCE, there was again an Egyptian pharaoh, Amosus, whose name only sounds like an STD.
110
Anyway, after all this conquering and being conquered, Egypt eventually emerged from its geographically imposed isolationism and...
111
Can we cue the New Kingdom graphic, please?
112
There it is!
113
New Kingdom Egypt continued this military expansion, but it looked more like an empire, particularly when they headed south and took over land in an attempt to find gold and slaves.
114
Probably the most expansive of the New Kingdom pharaohs was Hatshepsut, a woman who ruled Egypt for about 22 years,
115
and who expanded Egypt not through military might, but through trade.
116
But most New Kingdom pharaohs, being dudes, focused on military expansion, which brought Egypt into conflicts with the Assyrians, who you'll remember from last week,
117
and then the Persians, and then Alexander the Great, and finally the Romans.
118
On the whole, Egypt probably would have been better off enjoying its geographical isolation and not trying to conquer new territory, but all of Egypt's friends had jumped off a bridge, so...
119
One last thing about the New Kingdom, there was this crazy New Kingdom pharaoh named Akhenaten, who tried to invent a new god for Egypt, Atten.
120
Akhenaten was kind of the Kim Jong-il of ancient Egypt, like he had this feared police force and this big cult of personality and also he was a nut job.
121
Anyway, after his death he was replaced by his wife, and then a daughter, and then a son,
122
Tutankhaten, who turned his back on the weird god Aten and changed his name to Tutankhamen.
123
And that is about all King Tut did before he died, probably around the age of 17.
124
Honestly, the only reason King Tut is famous is that most pharaohs had their graves robbed by ancient people,
125
and King Tut had his grave robbed by 20th century British people.
126
Which brings us to the open letter.
127
An open letter to King Tut.
128
But first we gotta find out what Stan left for me in the secret compartment.
129
It's a pen.
130
I don't...
131
AHHHHH!
132
It's a shock pen!
133
Stan!
134
That was a terrible, terrible gift for the secret compartment.
135
Dear King Tut, I know that as Pharaoh's lives go, yours was pretty poor.
136
First, you had to marry your sister, which hopefully you weren't that psyched about.
137
Plus you had a cleft palate and probably scoliosis.
138
Plus, you died before reaching adulthood, but dude, you have had the best afterlife ever.
139
Since your body was discovered in 1922, you've become probably the most famous ancient person.
140
There have been lots of books about you, scholars have devoted their lives to you.
141
Dude, we're so obsessed with you
142
that we use this fancy new technology to scan your body
143
and establish that you probably died of an infected broken leg and or malaria.
144
Also, you've inspired such seminal works of art as the Discovery Kids series, Tootinstein, which my son forces me to watch, your relics have been to six continents?
145
So it all works out in the end, man!
146
Well, I mean, you're still dead, so that kind of sucks.
147
Best wishes, John Green.
148
King Tut leads us nicely to the really crucial thing about Egyptian culture.
149
Because King Tut lived right around the same time as the pyramids, right?
150
Wrong.
151
Remember, the pyramids were built around 2500 BCE, during the Old Kingdom.
152
King Tut died in 1322 BCE, 1200 years later.
153
That's five and a half Americas, but because Egypt was so similar for so long, it all tends to blend together when we imagine it.
154
Ancient Egypt lasted a thousand years longer than Christianity has been around
155
and 800 years longer than that other super long-lived civilization, China.
156
So there was an entire culture that lasted longer than Western civilization has existed, and it had run its course before the West was even born.
157
Next week we'll be looking at the Persians and the Greeks.
158
I'll see you then.
159

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
