  • Papcastle, a small village outside Cockermouth in Cumbria, boasts a Roman fort, even though not much of it has been excavated.
    But when a local resident got in touch with Time Team about some substantial stonework he had dug out of his garden, the moment had come to look beyond the fort.
    What Mick and the rest of the Team found was not merely substantial, but their discoveries may also change the way we look at one aspect of Roman Britain.

    I read that Mike Aston had felt that he wasn't leaving much of a legacy from his career. But the faces of those two children proves that he was wrong. Good on the whole team for encouraging those youngsters curiosity.

      In any case, Mr. Aston left traces, perhaps not those that later generations will be able to dig for, but in the hearts of those who were allowed to come with him. Even today, here on TV.

      It wasnt because a loss of his legacy, its because the programming network ( channel 4] went for a more American TV Model, less informative information, more flash and bang.
      This is why they brought in Mary Ann Ochta ( eye candy) and it drove Mick out.
      There's a quote floating around the internet where he states that, " He never did it for money or glory( tv), but in the end it seems that had what it became.." and that really upset him, nd you can see why.
      The original mission of Time Team, was to educate the British Public on the rich history of their land, via archeology in the soil.
      As an American looking from the outside in, I wish, simply, that more shows were like the original Time Team. It was a marvelous piece of not only TV, but a great education tool as well.

      @@gentlemanfarmer6042 Agreed- you would think that PBS would have done a better job with the two seasons of Time Team America, but they are bad, almost unwatchable. The networks certainly couldn't do a good job. My pet peeve is how Discovery, History Channel, etc, make such bad shows and stretch 10-15 minutes of information into an hour show with the constant recaps. I don't even watch them anymore; too annoying.

    "Further archaeological digs were undertaken in 2010 - 2015 which indicate that the Roman settlement was far greater than previously thought. Excavations south of the river in 2010 discovered a large Roman water mill with monumental masonry (one of the most complete yet excavated in Britain) and its associated mill race. Further digs were then carried out north of the river, a substantial mansio and bathhouse being revealed during the 2012 campaign. The indications were that Derventio had been at its peak (and possibly of similar importance to Carlisle or Corbridge) in the late 1st and early 2nd century AD."

      Some years ago I was also each summer with some friends on the way with metal detectors. Not looking for very old stuff though, more for stuff of WW2. We did found a lot of stuff, mostly catridges and metal pieces of gear. All on one place where the Germans once had build a gun emplacement against Allied airplanes.. And like in TT we did found out that the Germans were not using any rifles and handguns of their own, but those they took from their enemies or lesser important. Like Dutch, Italian, Russian and even some British weapons. . And coins also. I had to be the honor to be a kind of Phil. When it was something did lay deep, it was poor me who had to do the digging. 😢😁
      And yes, we did find some granades also... Just marked the place where and contacted the police.
      And the most things we did find were nails, and beercaps, the curse for those who work with metal detectors, altough some have discriminators who only react on better metals. But I guess you have found that out also already with a the beercaps and so. 😊

      There was nothing "eurocentric" about his remark, just the appreciation that in Britain and Europe there are countless archaeological sites, previously known or still to be discovered, from all possible eras from thousands of years ago until modern times. Of course, North America has its own incredibly interesting history but due to its size alone there are many areas devoid of any archaeology - not like in Europe, as he said, where one often - but not always, of course - has to merely uncover a stone to find ancient relics of one sort or another underneath. 😜

      Part of it is the fact that the Americas pretty much were still in the late Neolithic (though there was some work in copper and gold) with the people either following animal herds on the Great Plains or doing subsistence farming and hunting. Very few societies even had domesticated animals other than dogs. They never had a bronze age so no following Iron Age.

    Jehan, there is a rich prehistoric history in America going back 13,000 years. There are complex sites where cities supported populations of up to 20,000 people. There are earthworks in the shapes of snakes and birds. There are sites everywhere across the Americas. Sadly, many Americans think there is little to be found here. In reality, America is rich in archaeological resources. It is lovely to see a show that is an advocate for real archaeological technique, with GPR and careful recording of sites, however short their time is on a project.

      True, but then you have a ton of American organizations and government agencies and tribes AND their cats who jump up and try to stop the science with claims of ownership of one sort or another. In Britain they seem to really want to find out the history of what they are sitting on, except for those occasional wankers who are more concerned with their stupid grass.

      rachelle e. Well, the reason is, Romans, Vikings, Druids, Celtics and everyone before them have nominally died out, even if probably you and I are descendants of one tribe or another. But the descendants of the ancients folks roaming the USA still call themselves by their tribal names and feel close to their ancestors even thousands of years back. Digging ancient religious sites of Romans, Vikings, Druids, Celtics and everyone before them doesn't cause you and me any trouble. But digging a religious side of native Americans will insult one tribe or another.
      But then, the Australian natives are the same and don't want people digging around.

    Way into the future...
    An Archaeology dig team uncovers a strange device in one of their trenches. They hand it to the 20th century expert, who scratches his head for a minute, then seemingly unable to fully distinguish what it is, he suggests that it might have been a heated towel rail. He notes the frayed wires trailing from it. Wiping the mud-caking off the frame he notices some lettering, "PROT_TYP_ // _ADAR // DEV_CE".
    And on carefully brushing more grime and muck off the rectangular-shaped, wooden frame, more lettering below; "Property _f Svaa__rd U__versity, Swed_n".
    Could my observations be registering 'Sweden'? They made Saunas in Sweden, lots of towels... Yes! On to something, we definite determined are! Vigilance.."
    Another drafted-in expert looks at the find;
    "Salutations! 'Adar', hm, thoughts processing.. if I remembre correctings, was that likeliness of the manufactoriae de la Towels! It IS A TOWEL RAIL!! Great find, Tzuschar! We have found a heated Towel rail from Sweden!"
    The dig team leader is informed fully of all the data from the dig and in his ground-braking paper on how the Swedish invaded the British Isles back in the late 20th Century, he is able to establish how the Swedes erected many, many forts called 'IKEA'. It was highly likely that the Towel rail, which the team had certified as genuine, could very well have belonged to a wealthy Noble-man or his Lady, for keeping their towels warm for when they step out of their ceramic bath. Amazing; People actually sat in bath tubs filled with water, which has now been outlawed, so as to prevent parents from abusing their children by contaminating their skin with all manner of parasitic infections.
    It might be helpful to mention at this juncture, that due to 29th century Heavy Industry, (Atomic mining, Supersonic deep-shelf particle Fracking, high-pressure acid-boring etc), coupled with the abolishment of industry regulation and government legislations, allowed corporations to carry out an array of carnage and crimes against the environment, rendering the water table toxic and polluted beyond all salvation.
    To have found a Towel rail so well preserved, was quite a talking point indeed and is now a center-piece at the, ahem-
    'PHILLIP HARDING MUSEUM OF BATHING ETIQUETTE AND THE WEARING OF ANTI-H2O HATS'.
    Admittedly a long title for a building, but it is the 29th century after all, where language has been allowed to flourish, no more do we see comments of less than 125 characters. Gone are the days of concise handwritten notes and memos. For this is the age of the essay, the era of words and exquisite language!
    LONG LIVE THE TOWEL RAILS! LONG LIVE THE SWEDISH! LONG LIVE HATS! SKOL!

    Their comment about a strip houses sounds very much like what are known as shotgun houses in Louisiana, USA. They wasn't a sales section out front or workshops in the middle. However, they were built in the poorer sections of town where a narrow frontage lot was much less expensive. They were called shotgun houses because with the front and back doors open, you could fire a shotgun straight through. You had to pass through every room to get from one end of the house. Rather inconvenient unless your family is very chummy. To give an idea of how close together these houses were on their lots, people often purchase two of them side-by-side and use hall's (passages) 3 or 4 ft long to connect them together..

I'd have to dig up my own plants my way first.
