  • The National Trust Roman fort of Branodunum has produced some impressive aerial photographs of cropmarks, promising substantial buildings and multiple finds from the second to the fourth centuries AD. Some outstanding geophysics results are also hugely encouraging. If anything it was larger than the current Brancaster. The close proximity of the sea would have been vital to travel and commerce, and there was certainly much marine traffic. Among over 2000 finds are an extremely rare pewter dish, a belt ornament, Roman scale armour, and cockerel spurs indicating cockfighting. They are joined by County Archaeologist David Gurney, Philippa Walton from the British Museum, and Roman finds expert Mark Corney.

      That’s why Mick quit the show. In an interview he said, they dumbed down the show by bringing in new hosts, a pretty blond and a good looking guy. They also got rid of some Great people on the show, Stewart, Carenza, Victor, and more. Mick left the show in 2012, unfortunately Mick passed in June 2013. I highly recommend reading up on Mick Aston, to say he lead an interesting life would be quite the understatement!!

      From other episodes I've gleaned that they're very careful not to get into the "guts" of very important sites they discover. They respect the work of the other archeologistss who might want to dig these sites and do their own discoveries and write their papers.

      to give you perspective. Archaeology is very expensive and for one to happen you have to prove to the foundation that a site is work dging and spending money on. Time team's way of helping is to be the initial archeologists of sites wherein they are unsure whether to pursue or not. basically if TT finds nothing, no harm done as they earn through the show, while if they did find it it gives scientists and foundations opportunity and proof that a place is worth spending more time on.

    Why have I never seen you use metal detectors to find roman coins, that are so beautiful to behold. All you do is displace the depth were someone could easily find them. I know I wouldn't let you do that to my farm, until a search was performed for coins first. But it seems too many people are metal hunting, cause of the popular videos on UA-cam. I looked🎉in the background of one video, and I saw like 60 people in one field. Not for the science but, for profit I bet.

    Hey. What the Hell. It was occupied for 250 years. Let’s take a little extra time. Let’s spend 4 days….
    Wait. The site deserves to be ACTUALLY PROFESSIONALLY EXCAVATED. How about we take the next 10 YEARS AND DO IT UP PROPER…?

      @@jbrobertson6052 It's literally a part of the show because they all have regular jobs. And most the time the sites are further excavated after they leave. Not every single site but a lot of major ones. All the finds are recorded and everything professionally so I wouldn't call it pillaged lol. They are all professionals.

      these are exploratory digs so other archeologists can get funding to carry on a full dig.
