Just every once in a while I like making a top ten video :) I hope you like it noble ones Shields have varied greatly in construction over time. Sometimes shields were made of metal, but wood or animal hide construction was more common; wicker and even turtle shells have been used. Many surviving examples of metal shields are generally felt to be ceremonial rather than practical. Size and weight varied greatly. Lightly armored warriors would generally carry light shields. Heavy troops might be equipped with robust shields that could cover most of the body. Covering the body from head to foot, the figure-of-eight and tower shield offered most of the warrior's body a good protection in combat. Typical in the early European Middle Ages were round shields with light, non-splitting wood usually reinforced with leather cover and occasionally metal rims, encircling a metal shield boss. These light shields suited a fighting style where each incoming blow is intercepted with the boss in order to deflect it. The Normans introduced the kite shield around the 10th century. The kite shield predominantly features enarmes, leather straps used to grip the shield tight to the arm. Used by foot and mounted troops alike, it gradually came to replace the round shield as the common choice until the end of the 12th century, when more efficient limb armour allowed the shields to grow shorter, and be entirely replaced by the 14th century. As body armour improved, knight's shields became smaller, leading to the familiar heater shield style. In Italy, the targa, parma and rotella were used by common people, fencers and even knights. Shields for protection from armed attack are still used by many police forces around the world.

This is my public complete response to the idea that white people don't exist. Is it true? is it correct? is it false? Does it apply only to white people? White is a racialized classification of people and a skin color specifier, generally used for people of European ancestry, although the definition can vary depending on context, nationality, and point of view. The proposed explanation is that white people are a societal construct, or flawed arbitrary group classifier, based on the fact that within this very group, "white", we put together people of different cultural background, with different cultures. White Europeans, An English man, A french man an Italian a Scandinavian, a German, an American of European descent, what do they have in common? Nothing, so white people don't exist. Link to Ancient Greeks Couldn't see blue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omPGq_cu58Y It is a tentative answer, which can and will be responded in kind, in the following way. If based on your own parameters of culture and diversity, and national differenciation white people don't exist, then neither do black people. In fact, putting all black people into one single group is more nonsensical than doing it with white people, according to your own parametres. And differently from you, I can actually prove this one with science. On Population Diversity You see African populations harbour the greatest genetic phenotipic diversity according to molecular genetics and whole genome sequence data, across a broad geographic range. That's due to Extensive population substructure, the largest number of population-specific alleles, and less linkage disequilibrium (LD) among loci, and heritable variation in the human genome. This is why, as he doesn't know because he doesn't actually care, Africa is an important region to study human genetic diversity due to several factors, such as, climate variation, diet, exposure to infectious disease, a number of demographic factors including extensive population subsctructure as well as locus-specific factors such as selection, mutation, recombinatio and gene conversion, which result in the above mentioned high levels of genetic and phenotypic variation in seveal given population clusters, which is excellent to study their implications for the mapping of complex traits within large population genetic studies. Because of considerable environmental diversity, African populations also show a range of linguistic, cultural, and phenotypic variation which is greater than what we find in Europe. Despite the overwhelming evidence of African population genetics, the pattern of genome-wide nuclear genetic diversity across geographically and ethnically diverse sub groups, and enormous cultural and linguistic divergence, shows either a complete ignorance on the topic, or a deliberate missuse. I'll take either. measured using two different estimators: D’ and r2 (161). #metatron #white #debunked Demonstrated Although several TAS2R loci contribute to variability in PTC taste perception , 50%--85% of the phenotypic variance in PTC sensitivity is attributed to variation at the TAS2R38 gene. Studies have identified three amino acid substitutions at TAS2R38 that are in nearly complete LD in non-African populations and that form two common amino acid haplotypes Europeans speak many different langauges so it makes no sense to call them all white, say more proponents. The enormous ethnolinguistic diversity in sub-Saharan African populations is rather extensive. There are more than 2000 distinct ethno-linguistic groups in Africa, speaking languages that constitute nearly a third of the world’s languages So however you try to frame it, the argument is completely mute on a multitude of levels and shows and extreme bias and the sole objective of singling out a specific group, namely white people, for political reasons, in complete disregard of objective reality. And yes I will get to the political concept of whitness, which is a completely different kettle of fish. Yet Culturally, linguistically, genetically, all these categorizations are arbitrary and somewhat fluid. You either accept them all or reject them all. The idea that black is accurate but white is a social construct, is ludicrous. All discriminatory language, against black brwon white asian is bad. All of it. Historically humans did bad things to other humans. In order to Build a racism free society the first step is to treat everyone equally with respect, kindness and fairnesse, that includes white people. This is what we need to realize to end racism. I support and encourage No violence, no bullying of any kind, we are all human being, this is the common denominator. It's the concept of ethnic superiority that needs to be removed, it does not matter where it comes from. Look a this, this is not white supremacy but it's as bad. This is what you get if all you do is remove the concept of whitness, but keep everything else. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8j6_KQ7qE0
