Al Beidha Neolithic Village, Jordan - the first settled village in human history?
Quote
Join us on our short tour of Al Beidha Neolithic village, a short walk from Little Petra in Jordan.
Occupied from 8,500 BC, this is one of the earliest villages ever discovered, showing the transformation from hunter-gatherers to farmers.

Periods of settlement

Three periods of occupation were detected: the Natufian period in the 11th millennium BC,[3][4] a Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) village with masonry construction in the 7th millennium BC[5][6] and a Nabatean period dating to the 1st or 2nd century BC.[7]

Natufian period

Natufian Beidha is characterized as a seasonal encampment, repeatedly occupied over a long period of time. Evidence from lithics recovered along with the layout and position of hearths and roasting areas suggested the occupants were primarily engaged in hunting related activities. This was supported by the absence of permanent buildings, storage, burials and large stone implements.[3]

Neolithic period

The Neolithic stage at Beidha has been suggested to be one of the earliest villages with habitation dated between 7200 and 6500 BC. In the earliest PPNB phases, the population has been estimated at between 50 and 115 people.[8] These villagers used stone masonry and built a wall around the settlement of round houses with subterranean floors. Its occupants cultivated barley and emmer wheat in an early state of domestication, herded goats, and hunted a variety of wild animals such as ibex and gathered wild plants, fruits and nuts.[9] Burials were found in an area of the settlement thought to be used for ritual purposes.[9] Evidence shows it was destroyed by fire c. 6650 BC and then rebuilt with rectangular, overground buildings and specialized workshops. At the height of habitation, the population has been estimated at anywhere between 125 and 235 people.[8] Around 6500 BC the village was abandoned again, for unknown reasons. Many of the materials recovered came from some distance and included Anatolian obsidian and mother of pearl from the Red Sea. The transition to right-angled buildings shows an important development in human society that may have contributed the development of cities.[6][9] There is also a structure dating from this period some yards east of the main site which has been interpreted as possibly being a temple for the practice of what may have been a pre-Abrahamic religion. (The layout of the structure is that of a temple, but there are no signs of any 'graven images' ever having been present.)

Nabataean period

There is also plentiful evidence of a renowned Nabataean settlement in the area including construction of a series of walls around agricultural terraces.[3][10]

The Funnelbeaker Culture | Neolithic Farmers of Northern Europe
Quote
European farmers reached the southern edge of the North European Plain, not far south of the Baltic coast, before 5000 BC but didn't reach northern Germany and southern Scandinavia until 1000 years later. So for a thousand years there was some interaction with groups of the Late Mesolithic Ertebølle Culture - a hunter gatherer people in this region during the 5th millennium BC which is shown by traded stone axes and other artefacts.

Once it was thought that these northern hunter gathers gradually adopted farming over that thousand years but thanks to DNA analysis we know that's not the case.

Neolithic Iberia - 5000 year old Idols and Megaliths!
Quote
Who built the Neolithic stone circles, cromlechs and tombs of Portugal and Spain? Why did these people make strange plaque shaped idols? Where did they come from and who are the Bell Beaker people who invaded Iberia and replaced the megalith culture? All such questions are answered in this documentary about Neolithic Iberia.

Neolithic Cannibals | Prehistoric Europe Documentary (5,000 BC)
Quote
Cannibalism is seen in many cultures around the world, including in prehistoric Europe (eg the Upper Paleolithic / Mesolithic Magdalenian site of Gough's Cave in Cheddar Gorge). But the Neolithic is a time of settled farmers and herders. Were these people really cannibals?

In this video we're looking at three sites: Herxheim, Germany; El Toro Cave in Malaga, Spain; and Fontbrégoua Cave in Provence, France.

Were these prehistoric Europeans desperate people facing starvation? Were they honouring their own people in complex mortuary rites? Or were they feasting on their enemies?

And were they even practicing cannibalism at all?

Thank you for posting, really digging that Rutti track so far!

Glad that you like it! Here is the entire album playlist:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nS1c6P0YB6Zzvm_gf5_-fzjGYPkmFYgGc

Lots of good tracks on there. "Rutti" is my definite favorite though.

How about Track 11?

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you! While I did indeed settle for Track 11 to accompany that particular passage, the entire album rules hard.

"I really dig this."

There is a lot more in this style from 90s pop culture when pre-colonial revival was in full swing, not only from TV BGMs but also (2D) video game BGMs. For example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ezpWOuWJ_c

This one is from the Mohist RPG that I previously mentioned:

http://aryanism.net/blog/other/freemasonry-judaism-republished-on-kindle/comment-page-1/#comment-162015



"invoking similar emotions by an artist with a superior character. If you know one, please tell me and I will replace it."

Entire album here (timestamp links at YouTube page, take your pick!):

How about Track 11?

"Who needs orchestral scores anyway?"

Westerners do. No one else does (and we should be proud of this).

The key here is to identify which music fits the gracile archetype we are trying to promote.

Here are two favorites of mine which might fit in with what you are looking for:

Spoiler (hover to show)

Spoiler (hover to show)

This one sounds like Musk giving his VIP guests a guided tour of the finished spaceship and then giving a speech about the importance of space travel!

Meanwhile, in an abandoned factory compound outside the city, True Left guerillas are gearing up to stop Musk's evil plans. Ammo is clipped into assault rifles, IEDs are being prepared. Finally, our heroes set off in two outdated military trucks.

Spoiler (hover to show)

At the gates of Musk's lair, his armed guards are quickly taken out. Not wasting any time, our heroes scramble towards the production hall.

Spoiler (hover to show)

In the production hall, a fierce gun battle erupts. While Team A keeps Musk's body guards busy, Team B goes for the spaceship itself. Unbeknownst to our heroes, Musk has genetically enhanced himself. The bullets do him no harm. With his usual smug expression, he pries a rifle from one of his henchman's cold dead hands and shoots his way to the spaceship, where Team B is already planting the explosives.

Realizing that bullets won't stop him, Team leader A [please let me know if you can think of a good name for her - Dazhbog] grabs her two knives and charges at him, aiming to lop his ugly head off. Musk, also possessing superhuman strength and reaction thanks to his enhancements, easily thwarts her desperate effort and chucks her across the hall, her vision fading to black as she hits the wall.

As she wakes up, a deafening hum fills the air. Horrified she watches as Musk is starting the engines of his spaceship. The hall is strewn with the bodies of Musk's people and her comrades. As the spaceship takes off, she climbs a flight of stairs towards the roof of the hall, where she is joined by some of her surviving team mates. Defeated, they watch the spaceship take off into the pitch black night - until a massive explosion rips through the nocturnal silence. Team B's sacrifices have not been in vain after all!

Calmly and their morale restored, Team A plants the remaining IEDs throughout Musk's production facilities. Afterwards, they head to a safe place from which to watch the ensuing fireworks.

Spoiler (hover to show)

Back at their village the next day, the local spiritual authority [I was thinking of an Imam of sorts, though let me know if you have any other ideas - Dazhbog] performs the last rites for our heroes' fallen comrades. A cool breeze sweeps the clear autumn sky as the fire releases the martyrs' souls from their carnal prisons.

Spoiler (hover to show)

Who needs orchestral scores anyway?

TVB ancient drama incidental music track 51

I really dig this. Thank you for posting!

I myself don't like the BGM. We are talking about this one, aren't we?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASj81daun5Q

"There is something about their music that fits Aryan personality archetypes, wouldn't you agree?"

I don't know about their other works, but this one is far too grandiose, a better match with Homo Hubris attitudes. I think we should be promoting much simpler and less texturally dense arrangements with much more empty space (would you at least agree this BGM contains very little empty space?).

As a rough guideline, I think we could potentially classify music as robust or gracile, in which case it is obviously gracile music that should correspond to us. The above BGM, on the other hand, surely belongs to the robust category. Would you agree?

Getting back to this soundtrack, now that I think of it, the grandiose nature of the BGM fits the documentary clip very well, as it perfectly illustrates how non-Aryans view the Neolithic Revolution! The clip features non-Aryan presenters praising the fact that the revolution enabled population expansion and the development of complex civilization, the very things that we have been saying were the negative effects of the Neolithic Revolution all along!

This is what happens when Homo-Hubris gets its hands on things that were not meant for it.

😂 😂
It was also featured in the intro of Pandorastop's "Dawn of Arya" radio show, so maybe it only works in certain contexts? When I listened to it there, where it was played in the background of clips from a Hitler speech, it was simply chilling.

This has always been one of my favorite Guitar melodies, and I get a gracile type feeling from it:
Romance. Guitar Solo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZqZMdWzrGk

I can imagine sitting on a river bank with a warm summers breeze blowing through the valley to this piece....
Quote
"Romance Anónimo" (Anonymous Romance) is a piece for guitar, also known as "Estudio en Mi de Rubira" (Study in E by Rubira), "Spanish Romance", "Romance de España", "Romance de Amor", "Romance of the Guitar", "Romanza" and "Romance d'Amour" among other names.

Its origins and authorship are currently in question. It is suspected of originally being a solo instrumental guitar work, from the 19th century. It has variously been attributed to Antonio Rubira, David del Castillo,[1] Francisco Tárrega, Fernando Sor, Daniel Fortea, Miguel Llobet, Antonio Cano, Vicente Gómez, and Narciso Yepes. The Anónimo (anonymous) part of its name has been incorporated over the years due to this uncertainty. The question of authorship has probably been propagated by three main reasons: the lack of claim by its true author, the desire to avoid paying copyright fees, and the desire of publishing companies to claim the lucrative copyright of this world-famous piece.[2]

The style of the piece is that of the Parlour music of the late 19th century in Spain or South America, having a closed three-part form: the first in the minor key and the second being in the major key, with the third being a restatement of the first.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romance_(guitar_piece)
Quote
Parlour music is a type of popular music which, as the name suggests, is intended to be performed in the parlours of houses, usually by amateur singers and pianists. Disseminated as sheet music, its heyday came in the 19th century, as a result of a steady increase in the number of households with enough surplus cash to purchase musical instruments and instruction in music, and with the leisure time and cultural motivation to engage in recreational music-making. Its popularity waned in the 20th century as the phonograph record and radio replaced sheet music as the most common method of dissemination of popular music.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parlour_music



I was thinking about using this piece of music in a video about Neolithic settlements, maybe as I show the land and it's features surrounding such a settlement. What do you guys think of that idea?

Even if it were created in the 19th century as some claim, it has always felt like timeless ancient music to myself.

"After 55s it is irredeemable."

This one (another from TGSNT) follows the exact same pattern! Exactly after 55s it goes downhill:

"What do you think?"

The first 25s are OK. After 55s it is irredeemable.

Continuing from:

https://trueleft.createaforum.com/mythical-world/the-birth-of-civilisation-cult-of-the-skull-(8800-bc-to-6500-bc)/msg5996/#msg5996

"But what about the melody though? Did you feel it fit the documentary clip?"

The clip includes scenes of war as well as peace, so it would be hard for a single BGM to capture it all. But the main problem is that the music didn't sound like it belongs in such an old era. On the contrary, I get a high-tech-industry feel from it, such as a scene of thousands of people building a spaceship while Elon Musk watches with his usual facial expression.

"Also, what about this BGM?"

This one sounds like Musk giving his VIP guests a guided tour of the finished spaceship and then giving a speech about the importance of space travel!

"The comments on the video also seem to attest to this, with many commenters remarking on how they feel like they are "masters of the universe"."

Exactly.

"capture the spiritual nature of the Golden Age when played in the background of Neolithic visuals."

I want to showcase some music that could potentially be used as BGM for future video projects. The key here is to identify which music fits the gracile archetype we are trying to promote. For example, in the (flawed) Hitler documentary known as TGSNT (The Greatest Story Never Told), I felt some of the soundtracks did a good job in highlighting the heroic personality archetype of Hitler, even though the documentary itself tried to distort his image.

Here is one of (many) soundtracks featured in TGSNT:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwZ5-P3FnEk

What do you think?

« on: May 01, 2021, 12:55:31 am »

"We are talking about this one, aren't we?"
Yes

"would you at least agree this BGM contains very little empty space"

What exactly do you mean by "empty space"? If you mean that the instrumentation is far too "cluttered" with very few gaps I would agree. But only when listening to it by itself did I realize this. The comments on the video also seem to attest to this, with many commenters remarking on how they feel like they are "masters of the universe". After listening to the soundtrack by itself and reading these comments, I no longer think of it as Aryan.

"The above BGM, on the other hand, surely belongs to the robust category. Would you agree?"
The metallic armor of the soldiers in the thumbnail of the video seems to substantiate this, as it was the (non-Aryan) Turanians who invented this during the Bronze Age.

But what about the melody though? Did you feel it fit the documentary clip? I felt the melody at least was able to somewhat capture the spiritual nature of the Golden Age when played in the background of Neolithic visuals.


Also, what about this BGM? I think it is far more spaced. It was featured in the (again, flawed) TGSNT documentary:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYKUeZQbMF0
The only thing I don't like about it is the excess instrumentation, which could be solved by simplifying the orchestra. Also get rid of the vocals.
