Why Blue Didn't Exist in the Ancient World

Here's a philosophical question for you. If a color doesn't have a name, can we still see it?  

Many years ago, the human eye evolved to give us the ability to see about a million colors.  That's a lot.  

Then how come, until very recently, nobody saw or even heard of the color blue?  

Well, it's because blue just -- didn't exist yet.  Let's find out why.

Unlocked but YT says 'unavailable'. Pretty sure I saw this one, can't imagine why it had to be taken down.
