Faye always has the nicest, cleanest trench. It's always so well kept. I enjoy seeing what she pulls out of it whenever she's knelt down, digging away.
It never ceases to amaze me the amount of conjecture that goes into these programs. Perhaps educated guesses but definitely saying who and why is impossible.
Because you would discredit yourself in academia if you were to say something really was and it isn't. They have to give possibilities with lack of concrete proof you can't say something is.
unless we have the actual 1st hand records, everything older than the babylonians is a permanent guess. the further back, the less humans actually recorded anything. meaningful writing doesn't start at least until 3500-4000bc, and even then the majority of the cultures only passed knowledge orally.
Do you have Time Team tee-shirts, or hoodies. It looks like you are missing a money making opportunity to financially support your work. Think of replicas of jewelry, , bookends and replicas of other artifacts. I love your show!
that's mainly due to what is known. since the time period of 'prehistory' covers such a long time and took place a just a long time, any knowledge context is possibly lost forever. until clear and indisputable evidence is found, the best thing we can do is make educated guesses.
I'm pretty sure stonehenge wasn't built for fun, and it's not very practical. So I mean, they know what they are doing when they make a fair amount of those claims.
The total landscape is interpreted as being 'ceremonial'. At least for the mesolitihc occupation: this is more likely to be just practical use of the landscape, using small, higher islands in an river valley-system as areas of activty.
This is what made TIME TEAM so interesting and well worth your time. How can you ignore Phil lovingly holding a piece of flint? The new updated version has little personality. It's a WOKE BIG TECH version with little personality.

Oh Phil..... Granite isn't volcanic, it's _metamorphic_ - yes, you get the heating effects, since it's stone that's been sucked back under and cooked, but it's not volcanic. I guess this is why you're an archeologist and not a geologist? Not that we love you any less! Ok, I stand (or more like, sit at my computer) corrected - my father says that granite is formed by lava that cooled slowly, so it IS, technically, volcanic - it's just not the basalts that I'm accustomed to seeing in Oregon, USA.
This is a duplicate video in the "Time Team" series on this channel. The title is different, but the video is the same. The other one is titled: "Uncovering Prehistoric Burial Sites Beneath a Lake".
Necessity of survival. It's a mound built up for security at night. They camped on the mound at night with water all around them. That way they could hear if a predator or enemy was sneaking up on them at night in the dark. A early defense. That is why they find flint on the mound. It was there in the safety of the mound they napped there flint. The stone pathways were there for them to walk out to the mound on so not to sink into the mud or get too wet. Only they would have known where the pathway was just under the water a few inches. I would expect the path to change direction at least once also. So a enemy could not follow very successfully. Even a gap in the pathway to stumble a advancing enemy. Again only they path makers would know where that gap was. Quite ingenious and impressive i think. Simple but very effective. Unless the enemy was of great numbers. Not everything is ceremonial. Survival was much more important don't you think. ??
I'd be interested to know if there's a straight line on the map that connects this site to Stonehenge, Easter Island and other megalithic sites around the World
I bet you $10,000 that there isn't a straight line between this side, Stonehenge, and Easter Island. Never mind all the rest of the sites that you didn't bother to mention. Waylines aren't real.
Most of time a broken piece of rock is a broken piece of rock. I know the show needs results, but, most of the time a broken rock is just a broken rock.
They didn't put those rocks there for a walk way they had put them that away for some important reason like summer or winter solstice or something of more important reason
I’ve worked on a Mesolithic site in England. These are Mesolithic. You can tell by the size, shape, etc. Dates from other sites would be determined by doing radio carbon on associated organic material like charcoal so when the same type of thing appears elsewhere it’s clear what it is.
@@mysticfox1563 So you are saying that 'basic flint flakes' can be dated by 'size and shape'? Well. I have found a lot of flint flakes myself fieldwalking in the Netherlands and I can tell you that flakes themselves are NOT typical of whatever archaeological period. They are all the same, whatever archeological period or part of the world you are talking about. You need typological identification of tools (like arrowheads, scrapers, axes, etc.) and/or stratigraphical dating and/or dating based on associated artifacts that can be reliable dated...
@@RobKoelman maybe it has something to do with the scope and time constraints of the show. This show has very little to do with the lengthy process of actual archaeological work. This is entertainment.
Prehistory is everything before the roman conquest of britian? Of course... Like the first maps with 0' 0' located at the Vatican in rome. Leave it to the british to declare evrything before them as "pre" history. I imagine the Egyptians or Chinese would disagree.
Prehistory just means it's from a time without historical sources. In Britain, that's the time before the Romans arrived. Other countries will define it differently.
Of course it could, but this is Time Team from channel 4 tv....not the national institute of archeology, funded by the government lol.

This guy who keeps injecting himself into the introductions before the episode begins really irritates me. It's totally unnecessary, and he's exactly analogous to someone who speaks overlong while introducing the actual speaker the audience has come to hear.
Mesolithic and Bronze? Really? What about Neolithic and Copper?! Also what about some radiocarbon dating? I find most annoying that British prehistorians totally subsume the Copper Age (Chalcolithic) into "Bronze Age" (that honey colored flint is typical Chalcolithic, not "Bronze", and most likely originated at Grand-Pressingny, Loire basin, France) but what I find most astonishing here is that, having what seems very much Brittany-like structures (stone alignements, stone rings, the mound is probably also a Neolithic dolmen but will have to wait till it's properly mapped), and knowing well that SE British (and Irish and Scottish) Neolithic has Briton+ Megalithic origins (unlike NE English Neolithic, that has "Danubian" origins in North France and thus styles another type of monumental architecture such as henges/rondels), no mention is ever made to Neolithic, Chalcolithic nor any relationship with the continent at all (when it should be obvious for all those well-learned archaeologists). We know by now that there was a demographic replacement (and cultural and dietary as well) with the arrival of the Neolithic to the islands some 4000 years ago. So if these guys want to make a continuity correlation between what seems to be a wooden hut (claimed "Mesolithic" but maybe not) and the later ritual NEOLITHIC landscape, then that demographic replacement is a problem.
@@ptl9029 - I'm right now unsure if direct heat may alter carbon dating but in general that is not considered a problem by specialists who have been studying this dating system for 70 years already and refining the calibration curve, hyper-refining the methods of direct dating, etc. in order to achieve even better accuracy. There are other methods of direct dating like Th-U and thermoluminiscence, which are complementary and in some cases can achieve even greater temporal depth (C14 stops working at around 50 Ka BP).

It seems that the 'copper-only' period in Britain and Ireland was of such a short duration relative to elsewhere on the continent that academics cannot decide whether giving it the title Chalcolithic is appropriate.

Every time when TV houses like History,BBC,and CNN,talk about the history.Then all ends up as a visual history falsification made by ignorant teenagers,and after five seasons of 'historical documentaries',we are still clueless.That is not first or last case of brits effort to falsefy slavic history,just try to remember WW2 that has going on in yugoslavia from 1941-1945,that is wright,their is non made about it.The real truth what is really happening with history discoveries lately is a cover up of real historical facts,that has proved that slavs were first and oldest europeans before other europeans.True history tell us,that slavs oldest ancestor was born in turkey,in 30000BC as the R1A1 gene carrier.And that modern slavic man has existed in 18000BC,and that slavic people have become dominant people in europe in 12000BC.Slavs have builded all european civilizations in all european pasts,and that is why they are persistent in 7th century slavs migration story,so that they can take slavs acomplishments for them selfs,as their own.Slavs have builded manny things since 12000BC,and thouse are Arkaim star observatory and temple in 12000BC,Stonehenge is builded by the slavs on the same 44th paralel.Slavs have created runa script,sanskrit,and astrology in 8000BC.In 9000BC slavs have created 'egyptian piramydes in russia',in 8000BC slavs have created tripoli and vinca civilization,move to egypt and created 'egyptian civilization' temples and religion.Slavs have moved into china and india in 8000BC,and bring swastika and ying yang to asia.And it was slavs who has bring swastika and ying yang to american native tribes in 8000BC,and discovered america 9400 years before columbus.Their was even a war between aryan russia and china in 5500BC,back then china was slavic tartaria,and 'chinese wall' builded by the russians.Europeans and americans have falsefyed manny parts about the slavs history,the ancient people that we know as the Etruscans,Illyrians,Skitians,Alani,Sarmatians,Vikings,Huns,Atila,and Hanuman,are all slavs.And that is what they should talk about on prime tv time,but they won't,becouse their is nothing human,in the people that writes fake history.
seriously you folks need to do something about the ads on this one ... I'm halfway through and I've already had seven ads. Do the math ... 27 minutes, seven ads. One every three minutes. Sheesh.
Educated people and all the extra folks involved couldn't even think of a few sheets of lengthwise cut ply wood to put on top of the muck ? Why am I poor while these people get paid so much money ? Why ?
Why does it always have to be religious, complete bias. Could be for any number of reasons, to keep track of time, administrative gathering, show of inginuity and power towards different "tribes/countries", megalomania project of a cruel "king/leader" or any number of reasons we cannot think of right now. I completely hate the "religion" theory. It is overused!
Not the best time team documentary. A perfect example of how peer approval attempts to fit evidence to their theories, rather than fit theories around the evidence. It is absurd. Over the hundreds of generations that lived in Britain in the neolithic, the land was more used than it is by modern Britons, by sheer weight of numbers. That is in direct contravention of the "sparcely populated" rhetoric. Sparcely populated over thousands of years would generate the same amount of relics as heavily populated over hundreds of years. Neolithic activity can be found all around us, all the time. Why does any survivng evidence always have to be "sacred". Lots of people go to Tesco, and they all have the same basic construct. Does that mean that in a few thousand years they will be considered as sacred sites ?
I wonder what people would have if they were actually productive in the economy, instead of working to support nonsense ??? What will any of this benefit anyone? Are you happy being a slave merely to satisfy mundane curiosity? Also, what about the fish and other life that should be there?

Every time when TV houses like History,BBC,and CNN,talk about the history.Then all ends up as a visual history falsification made by ignorant teenagers,and after five seasons of 'historical documentaries',we are still clueless.That is not first or last case of brits effort to falsefy slavic history,just try to remember WW2 that has going on in yugoslavia from 1941-1945,that is wright,their is non made about it.The real truth what is really happening with history discoveries lately is a cover up of real historical facts,that has proved that slavs were first and oldest europeans before other europeans.True history tell us,that slavs oldest ancestor was born in turkey,in 30000BC as the R1A1 gene carrier.And that modern slavic man has existed in 18000BC,and that slavic people have become dominant people in europe in 12000BC.Slavs have builded all european civilizations in all european pasts,and that is why they are persistent in 7th century slavs migration story,so that they can take slavs acomplishments for them selfs,as their own.Slavs have builded manny things since 12000BC,and thouse are Arkaim star observatory and temple in 12000BC,Stonehenge is builded by the slavs on the same 44th paralel.Slavs have created runa script,sanskrit,and astrology in 8000BC.In 9000BC slavs have created 'egyptian piramydes in russia',in 8000BC slavs have created tripoli and vinca civilization,move to egypt and created 'egyptian civilization' temples and religion.Slavs have moved into china and india in 8000BC,and bring swastika and ying yang to asia.And it was slavs who has bring swastika and ying yang to american native tribes in 8000BC,and discovered america 9400 years before columbus.Their was even a war between aryan russia and china in 5500BC,back then china was slavic tartaria,and 'chinese wall' builded by the russians.Europeans and americans have falsefyed manny parts about the slavs history,the ancient people that we know as the Etruscans,Illyrians,Skitians,Alani,Sarmatians,Vikings,Huns,Atila,and Hanuman,are all slavs.And that is what they should talk about on prime tv time,but they won't,becouse their is nothing human,in the people that writes fake history.

Who pays for these people to do this and how do they get the rights to be the ones digging it up?
Good questions.
Usually through grants attached to a University or similar institution.
@@jayjones1414 so the uni pays them? good to know, ty
@@Hashslingingslasher- In my country the people get payed by the university. But the university can ask for a governmental fund for a dig.
They all have day jobs, they are invited in to jumpstart a dig for a local group.

Educated people and all the extra folks involved couldn't even think of a few sheets of lengthwise cut ply wood to put on top of the muck ? Why am I poor while these people get paid so much money ? Why ?
Cause you need to see the ground
Why does it always have to be religious, complete bias.
Could be for any number of reasons, to keep track of time, administrative gathering, show of inginuity and power towards different "tribes/countries", megalomania project of a cruel "king/leader" or any number of reasons we cannot think of right now.
I completely hate the "religion" theory. It is overused!
Uhmm? Maybe a bit Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz........................................?
yes it didn't grab me.
Not the best time team documentary.
A perfect example of how peer approval attempts to fit evidence to their theories, rather than fit theories around the evidence.
It is absurd. Over the hundreds of generations that lived in Britain in the neolithic, the land was more used than it is by modern Britons, by sheer weight of numbers. That is in direct contravention of the "sparcely populated" rhetoric. Sparcely populated over thousands of years would generate the same amount of relics as heavily populated over hundreds of years.
Neolithic activity can be found all around us, all the time. Why does any survivng evidence always have to be "sacred".
Lots of people go to Tesco, and they all have the same basic construct. Does that mean that in a few thousand years they will be considered as sacred sites ?
Probably
Would have been better left as a reservoir!
It was. Reservoirs have to be emptied every few decades for maintenance.
I wonder what people would have if they were actually productive in the economy, instead of working to support nonsense ??? What will any of this benefit anyone? Are you happy being a slave merely to satisfy mundane curiosity? Also, what about the fish and other life that should be there?
Who is volunteering their time? Who are you referring to exactly?
And why are you watching this if you don't like archeology?
Who is this guy? The show ended in 2012. Looks like somebody trying to make some money that belongs to the Time Travel people. Yeah just cut your video in on top of Sir Tony and the crew and voila claim it as yours.
saying "man power" is pretty offensive in 2020. dont be a sleep, bro. woke up!
Would it be ok to say "person power", or would that be an insult to all the world's horses and donkeys and other beasts of burden?
That sounds ridiculous D Sharp.
Women are hu-mans also.
Also, we shouldn't change our entire language just because some people are easily offended.

@Michal How did you end up in the educational side of UA-cam? Go watch something with flashing colors and moonshine to appease that one-track pinecone of yours.

Pathetic!
