Love how they give us little glimpses into the life as an archaeologist, like when they caught Matt in the middle of that huge yawn when Racksha (sp?) was going over the site of the bell tower they were excavating. His little start and guilty grin was hilarious.
This is why I'm fascinated by archaeology, the unraveling of the past lives of people who lived very differently than we do. Great program, love the Time Team! Oh, & as for the comment that these were celibate men amassing huge fortunes, I wouldn't count on all that celibacy. Anyone else find it odd that the Bishop's bestie was buried in the FAMILY chapel? Wouldn't be the first time!
Really don't understand this modern obsession for speculating everyone in the past was homosexual without evidence. You were literally presented nothing that pointed toward that conclusion. Historical figure didn't marry- must have been gay Historical figure never had children- must have been gay Historical figure had any close friends of the same sex- GAAY!! Cause no straight people have ever done any of those things ::eyeroll::
People are asing about why the bell tower was taken down. One person suggests that it was too ugly, but I suspect that it may have been structurally compromised by the vibrations of the almost continual ringing of the bells. I'm sure there was more than one installed over the centuries.
People who moan about how all these massive buildings were a waste, haven’t considered that for decades they employed craftsmen and boosted the local economy. Better than hoarding the coins or breaking the pride of the working poor by giving them money to do nothing.
You clearly don't work in building or have the slightest clue about the Technologies you're referring to, however there is one huge difference about when they were building these and today that being the medieval forests of Europe the little matchsticks we have today do not compare and I live on the west coast of British Columbia but I know that are beautiful massive softwood doesn't compare either, the wood they used to build this was like Steel
100% cathedrals were built as much for letting lower classes know their place as it is glory to god. The grandeur of the church itself before reformation was designed to keep the peasantry in their places, so to speak. As someone who has studied and practices in this in Eastern Europe, it is easier to see when dealing with serfdom over the feudal focus of Western Europe. Both are prevalent
Yeah, but compare that to today. A laymen didn't pay more than 10% of his wages in tithes and a significant portion of the year off for Holy Days, by law. Nobility was outlawed from raising land rents, regardless of population or inflation. Clergy weren't able to get married or pass on any wealth to children, keeping it all within the Church so they could build those buildings which were open to the poor and the sick. Was it perfect? About as good as today, more or less. About as good as the future, I would say as well. The eternal law of might makes right will be around forever, as it has from the get-go.
I quite like what interesting little snippets we get from such digs. What I dislike is how the programme's powers that be insist on everything being blown out of proportion. "We're re-writing the history of this cathedral" [add a series of exclamation points]. "It's a mysterious burial" [awe and wonder]. It's all interesting for sure. But it is also what you'd expect from a dig site like this.
The archeologists all have full time jobs in different cities. A long weekend is all they have to do the show. Also, some sites require permits and some permits have time limits.
@@LifeletnothingholdudownJackie indicated to Phil after he asked about the sex of the individual as she was examining the pelvis that the skeleton was male. You may have just missed that moment because it was barely a minutes worth of conversation.
When you look at the massive wealth invested in these cathedrals and senior churchmen and their modern day equivalents, the Televangelists: you begin to understand the biggest grift in history.
They decided to erase the bell tower simply because it was too ugly compared to the cathedral itself which is just gorgeous. If you don't know, ask me!
Example 1. When it comes to the actual building of the Cathedral. It was NOT built 800 years ago. Today we can't duplicate that kind of building in material. The biggest strongest cranes today. Can't lift more than half of those stones. Example 2 Even today. We don't find the transfer of craftsmanship. From said building. To the homes and businesses buildings. In the surrounding area. Comparing the technologies of said homes and business buildings. To the technology behind that build. Is vastly different. One's primitive. Other we still can't reproduce.
@trumpershaveblinderson7470 Like all conspiracy theorists you make wild claims but never back up those claims with anything even remotely approaching evidence. So if the building is not 800 years old, then how old is it? Go on, tell me. I'm sure you'll dodge the question with some elaborate word salad.
@@walkaboutwithrob I agree. I hear these kinds of things all the time. It typically can be reduced to, "I don't understand how they did it, therefore it had to be done by aliens or time travelers."
@@walkaboutwithrob Conspiracy fact. No theory behind anything mentioned in my comment. In your entire comment. You didn't address the problems. The problem with the Official storyline. Which is incredibly flawed. I didn't even get into the actual Technology of that design. Address how? They made this. That burden is on you. Rope's man and animals. Is hogwash. Not with those size of solid stone. Don't do theories. How old is this building? IDK. When it comes to a dating system. There again. IDK of any 💯 accurate dating system. Certainly not C-14 dating. You ask for me to do the impossible. Edit. They even mentioned that they added on to it. But it wasn't recorded. But yet there's a wall that predates the said addition.
@@brograb898 It just another example. Of past forgotten technologies. That prove. We today aren't the most advanced generation. Of the history of Mankind.
Unlike a mosque, a church can be both visited by the public who must just be properly dressed and respect silence, and at the same time be used for daily worship.

I saw that too and smiled 😊

SARUM is one of my all-time favorite novels, so this episode of TT is particularly interesting to me.

Ok, ummm 🤔 who exactly is saying these buildings were a waste? Where? When?
The money isn't 'to do nothing' the money is 'to do nothing organized to overthrow crapitalism' and it's a bargain at twice the price.
The religious leaders skinned the people to get it built in the first place
they could have done the same thing but built libraries to actually educate people.
these are nothing but tools of oppression
How you turned this hulking Medieval pile into a memorial to Tory righteousness, to my American eyes, is pretty damned funny.
I love Mick’s laugh, I know he is missed by the team. 💜
The Bishop's Seed Tray. Nice place. Good food. They have a band on Thursdays. Would recommend when you're in Salisbury.
Oh, if only. You are so blessed! Thank you for the invitation, just the same. Maybe one day, Lord willing.
omg why on earth would such historic buildings be pulled down what a dreadful thing they did I wish it could be re built exactly as it had been
Amazing , well done . Thank you !
cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẽ.
Ha!! Great shot at 12:23 of Rackshaw hard at work and Matt getting caught in a yawn behind!
I don’t think her name is spelt “Rackshaw.”
A Very Good Video 👍🏻
The technology they didn't have back then to build these masterpieces still hasn't been matched today,clever humans.

Any religion is made only for control people purposes. It's not obvious only for believers :) That's why any religion is always against science

I do not understand still, why the tower was demolished?
Salisbury? Like the steak? Yum

I wonder why they destroyed the original bell tower.
I only heard one sphere...
Don’t mind that’s just coffee… low key stereotypical archaeologists map 😂
Is the 3 day time limit an element of every episode?
Is it a self imposed time limit because maybe they did a show a week?
The archeologists all have full time jobs in different cities. A long weekend is all they have to do the show. Also, some sites require permits and some permits have time limits.
The skeleton seemed to be a lady, but at the end it is said to be of a great-nephew named Anthony?
Yeah that was a little confusing. Maybe they were running out of time so they didn't have time to say it wasn't a female.
@@LifeletnothingholdudownJackie indicated to Phil after he asked about the sex of the individual as she was examining the pelvis that the skeleton was male. You may have just missed that moment because it was barely a minutes worth of conversation.
Coin looks like a templar connection
So they are using the English version of Beauchamp and calling his Bishop Beacham?
You should at least put original airing dates on these videos in the description.
Love me some Stu.
I live in Salisbury, MD USA... we have nothing like. Makes me wonder why they named this place Salisbury, zero similarities even in landscape 🤷♀️
When you look at the massive wealth invested in these cathedrals and senior churchmen and their modern day equivalents, the Televangelists: you begin to understand the biggest grift in history.
Beecham, spelled Beauchamp, should be pronounced "Bo-shaw".
So my Beauchamp relatives tell me. 😊
Bo shan you mean 😉
In lousiana we bo sha
That Hellen is a real Geake
Was there any evidence of hot pokers or baby eating?

Maybe it’s richard the third? Just a wild guess
Except Richard was found in Leicester.
He was under a car park.
Poor Richard III...I think he got a bad wrap...🤔
😂😂😂
Again ???
He's a bit of an attention seeker ! 😅
Is Tony Robinson related to Tommy Robinson? 🤔
No. Tommy Robinson isn't even his real name.
He was born as Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon.

All these cathedrals and churches and chapels, serious question; are they still used for worship or just museums anymore?
Yeah, they typically are! Salisbury still holds services, for instance.
Unlike a mosque, a church can be both visited by the public who must just be properly dressed and respect silence, and at the same time be used for daily worship.
