Ok you guys were already cool but this is Epic! Brilliant work, thank you!

[@paulmorris1690]

Wow!!! You are doing brilliant archaeology - some of the best that I have every seen or heard about. Archaeology 101 is an excellent initiative that will help everyone better understand and appreciate both archaeology and Jamestown. I wish I had had a program like yours available when I was young. Please keep releasing videos as often as you can.

I wanted to be an archeologist when I was a kid. My fascination with people of the past remains

Hi guys! I have a question about digging sights at or on fault lines.
Is it possible to determine whether the fault had very recent activities or when a next movement of the fault could happen.
Also, this 101 was fantastic and very useful.
Thank you so much for these segments.
