This episode had me thinking about my own family and the parallels of what my father's side of my family experienced here in Alberta, Canada. My great great grandparents homesteaded in Central Alberta back in 1887. It was completely wild. They cleared the land for farming, and started with a log, sod roofed cabin, and some rudimentary pole style outbuildings. It was a small, mixed operation of only a hundred acres. They built near a creek that they drew their water from. Fast forward to the 1922, when my father was born, the farm had expanded to a full section (640 acres). They had upgraded the home to a stone foundation with rough cut, square timbers, a shake roof, and glazed windows. They had a barn made of rough cut timbers on a stone foundation, as well as timber outbuildings. They also had a well with a hand pump. They used oil lamps and wood / coal heating and everything was horse driven up until 1950. That is when they first started living with electricity. They also upgraded all of the buildings around this time. They also had their first tractor as well as their first vehicle (Model T). From there on, they continued to experience the rapid changes brought on by technological advancements. In this area of the world, we all are still living through a transitional time, just not as profound as what my ancestors experienced at the turn of the 20th century. Thank you for these videos.
I have been following your excellent broadcasts for several years, I hope you will continue to search for new challenges. Thank you from an older Viking.
Their artist (Victor, I think?) does such a genius job at the renditions of people, just placed in the grave. This girl, and the one from the episode they found the girl with the braid, totally affect me. Who were they? What did they think of the world around them? So fascinating!! So sad...
They could make a TV series about this. Following a family down through the centuries, showing how they lived in each historical period. They could even make it a comedy. Tony should get his actor & writer friends to come up with something. Might be a role for him in it.
THANK YOU FOR THESE SHOWS WITH THE ORIGINAL TIME TEAM !!!! ( just CANNOT watch and get into the newer ones, even though they're a few holdovers , its broken and not enjoyable, sorry)
Its possible that the Roman building materials were simply reused from another site as ballast, or to add a Roman touch to British style buildings, during the Roman period.
@@derekcaver We feed Maize to livestock. It is a lower grade of corn and turns colour when cooked. It took the Indians of Central America over 900 years to selectively grow corn from a grass size to what corn is now.It was brought north by a Chief later known as Cornplanter, or so the legend goes. Cheers.
@@jasonrowe344 Why would a UK programme care about American English? Do American television shows use words like lorry and lift for truck and elevator, or suspenders for garter belt or trousers for pants - just to avoid confusing British viewers? All kinds of grain are called 'corn' in British English. Americans used the word 'corn' in the English sense - for all kinds of grains - before they limited it to meaning maize or 'Indian corn.'
Whenever they find a quern-stone, Tony always says, “used for grinding corn”. There was no corn! And in this Iron Age context, there wouldn’t be any corn in England for almost 2 millennia. The Columbian Exchange, late 15ᴛʜ/early 16ᴛʜ century, no sooner.
Every one has "day jobs". Some at Universities and regional archaeological agencies, and people like John, the geo-phys guy, has his own company. From the start, the idea is they take a Friday off, and have to get back to two work on Monday.
It's a little more complicated, but basically artifacts belong to the owner...however the law requires them to give museums a chance to buy them at a fair market value. No one gets any money for something like ruins, unless they are spectacular enough to rate being turned into a tourist attraction...and then there are issues. The reality is, that it costs money for upkeep, and staff to run a site, for just a few visitors a day if even that many. I visited tons of ancient barrow sites which are just left, fenced off in a farmer's field, with a path from a small parking lot. No fees, but also no guides. The "crown" won't let the owner damage the site, but there's not enough draw to charge any money. If there's enough draw, there's the possibility of pay-to-park charges, entrance fees, and even food stalls and gift shops.

Its just occurred to me that the shadow of Cheddar Man en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheddar_Man has had a profound effect on everyone involved in UK archeology. Cheddar man gave everyone the licence to assume that families did stay more or less in the one place for countless generations, through massive changes in culture and technology.
Still watching reruns of Time Team in 2022. Anyone else?
Me!
Binge watching as only recently discovered Time Team.
Absolutely! Maybe 4-5 times per episode by now...
me.and to be honest and i try not to be unfair to the new team, but i like this - dig - better
Yup, from Ireland 🇮🇪

Thank you for these videos.
I’m from Manitoba. My grandparents moved here during the first world war.
I really do appreciate the effort you put into these despite the fact that most of you have busy Weekday schedules. THANK YOU!
I love these videos. Thanks so much for all your hard work.
What? to issue repeats of others previous work?
I have been following your excellent broadcasts for several years, I hope you will continue to search for new challenges.
Thank you from an older Viking.
Phil reminds me of my best archeology professors.
20 years on the professional side.
They don't show him drinking enough beer to be like my old archaeology professors.
Absolutely love Time Team 🌺🌸
Bravo all of you on time team gripping as usual
Thanks for posting
Still watching over n over!
Bravo ! I always enjoy !

Absolutely fascinating. I love this type of stuff.
Lol I've been watching these enough to be like "Ah yes, I thought that too." when they were wondering if the round print was a roundhouse.
Victors art work is fascinating. Where can I buy?

Thank God Stu was wearing his helmet...

Yep. they are much better than the new ones.
Thank you.
You're not alone
The roundish 'cement' might be simple a Pier and Beam structure that is built in Clay as it swells. Solid wall would crack and fall.
Thamk you.
Yes and the new ones
Here in Michigan you can rent a tarpaulin tent
Me too!
Which episode is this?
Why the devil can't they tell us which series/episode this is?
I would really like to know!
According to Wikipedia Standish should be series 12 episode 7
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Time_Team_episodes
I 💛 Phil...he reminds me of myself! 😡😀
I reckon Stewart's Often ahead of the others
So Odyssey has the rights to wrap these Time Team episodes like this? Or are they simply stealing content and rebroadcasting?
Wouldn't it be wheat ground on that round stone since corn wasn't discovered until North America was?
Any cereal grain in Britian is "corn". American corn is known as maize in most of Europe

@@derekcaver in dutch it is "koren" and "mais"
Yes I am
Is a "Yeah the same as a Year" ?
God Bless
@Odyssey - Ancient History Documnetaries have you heard of camera called 4K? We are living in 2022 not 1920 potato age
And this stuff is made long before 4K.....or have ya ever seen a chaplin movie in 4K???
Grinding corn 🌽????
That's what they call(ed) all kinds of grain.
@@tracibarron4627 thanks confusing for American viewers.

British Archaeology: find a wall and follow it.
Me too.
Spoiler alert, they find some rocks and a computer animation of what it looked like.
I do too. Will probably for the rest of my time. The Phillistines and the rest.
Why have they only got three days?
Every one has "day jobs". Some at Universities and regional archaeological agencies, and people like John, the geo-phys guy, has his own company. From the start, the idea is they take a Friday off, and have to get back to two work on Monday.

Too bad the opening scene has been omitted
3 Days ?? That's Crazy short.
Welcome to the show! Prepare to learn and lose all track of time.
A previous show followed a dig for a year each season. I guess it was decided that this would be--more exciting?
2023?!
I’m wondering what the pot and other finds looked like from the so called horse barbecue.
I love time team to sadly dont have mik ashton rip and thanks to covid no more shows that i love is showet just moore talk of covid and rules
The number of channels stealing Time Team content is ridiculous.
You have NO CLUE!! Odyssey had paid for the rights to rebroadcast this. Stop spewing crap you know nothing about.
I wonder how much the land owners or farmers get out of this ( my lord the crown)
It's a little more complicated, but basically artifacts belong to the owner...however the law requires them to give museums a chance to buy them at a fair market value.
No one gets any money for something like ruins, unless they are spectacular enough to rate being turned into a tourist attraction...and then there are issues.

England should give this land back to the romans

@@kevinroche3334 Yeah. One of those, 'another idiot heard from' moments, eh?
Why do they keep making these, they never find anything worthwhile.
perhaps you should watch one or two more? or are you another Indiana Jones watcher?
