From the Spring and Autumn period of Ancient China, to the wacky atomic antics of the Cold War, history is PACKED full of whimsical warfare decisions that make into lovely little bite-sized YouTube videos :) While the stories of the ANZAC retreat in Gallipoli using drip rifles and a chicken-warmed nuclear landmine from the Cold War are easily verifiable, the tales of self throat-cutting soldiers and Alexander's Siege on Tyre are harder to verify. Alexander's story, on one hand, has strong physical evidence. We can see the remains of the causeway he constructed in Lebanon to this day. But for the details of these stories, the sequences of events, and specific actions and outcomes, we have to rely on the word of scarce few sources. Most of what we know about Alexander the Great, for instance, comes from a few historians writing about him many years after he lived, utilizing primary sources that no longer exist for us to corroborate. The same can be said about King Goujian of Yue, whose sources write about him around a hundred years after the fact. The biggest takeaway for me in this video's research process is that Ancient History is never something we will be able to fully determine. Much of what we know comes from a handful of sources, some of which are known to have lied or exaggerated, requiring us as students of history to use our best judgement and knowledge to decipher the most believable, "true story." Studying Ancient History requires a bit of faith, because if we hold the tales of millenniums ago to the same standards as today's reporting, we know absolutely and positively nothing.
