@@bobcranberries5853 Yeah we dont have as cool of history in my personal opinion. We have some stuff but not celts/saxons/vikings/romans and all that good stuff. Britain is an archaeological gold mine.
America's archaeological goldmine is primarily pre-European. There's loads of it but, not dissimilar to the monastery in this episode, it's mostly hidden forgotten ignored destroyed. The Mississippi Valley Civilization is only one among many examples.

@@wagoneer81 oh! I had no idea he had passed on either. He was a great archaeologist. I love watching all the shows with him in it. He would get so excited over every site he was working. I hope he is in heaven digging archeology and having a good time in his colorful clothing. 🙏❤️
Now, who's going to pay for it? Because that's one of the reasons that Time Team had to end. It's just so expensive to mount an expedition like this. The local uni, if it has an archeology/history department , can make this part of their course schedule. So students would be contributing a lot of man power to earn credits , rather than paying professionals to do the work.
That site certainly merits a full-scale archaeological dig and analysis, given its very early date and status. Hope some Uni jumps in there with a complete look around!

17:07 I've got a £20 note with Robert the Bruce on it on my fridge door that came out of the ATM at that Clydesdale bank branch. One of my favorite souvenirs.
I would love to be a part of stuff like this. Discover and excavate sites, bring lost settlements and people back into the light of history to be remembered. It's fantastic and lovely to me.
@@GrainneMhaol if Tony ever turned up murdered that look Phil gave Tony at the beginning would get him arrested. It is obvious how much Phil loaths Tony. I wonder why Phill even stuck around as long as he did
What's even cooler is the host, Tony Robinson is a famous comedian and actor and starred in Blackader with Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean). Such a cool discovery.
One of their best episodes - and definitely one of my favorites. It's really tragic that they never recovered from the debacle of passing up the chance to excavate Richard III.
Found this site very interesting and wish there was a way for the team to come back to finish of further excavate the site and remove the bones that were sadly discovered there on the last day. I was / am hoping that they can come back and find a Viking burial or presence there, since they were known in the 8th/9th century to have come to invade or take control or settle for a while in Iona... which I was hoping they would also go to..

When I was a child we were so poor that we lived at the bottom of a shallow but very cold lake. Only rich people could afford to live in fancy houses such as these.
Every *Time Team, Time Team Special* and most *Time Team America* programmes have been posted on YT by *Fillask, Reijer Zaaijer* and the _official_ *Time Team* channel.
Strange, I pick up and collect small quartz rocks too. I place them in my garden. Perhaps it's a genetic memory from my Celtic heritage that makes me do this.
If one looks at the Jewish cemeteries in central and eastern Europe one finds pebbles left on gravestones in remembrance. I don't think that's too great a stretch.
The 6th century is hardly the earliest anything when it comes to Christianity in the British Isles. The emperor Constantine's British mother followed some form of Christianity, and this shows a Christian presence in Britain at least 3 centuries earlier than Columba.
As this was a monastery, there most certainly would have been a kitchen building somewhere on the site, probably closer to the monks dwellings than the chapel.
Weather conditions and people moving away from the area for better prospects, if nobody is there to repair the buildings they'll just crumble and fall down.
NM 49695 54086 Baliscate Chapel is set on a natural terrace in a small clearing in a spruce plantation on the lower slopes of Coille Creag a’ Chait. Following the discovery of the site by Hylda Marsh and Beverley Langhorn, initial recording by the RCAHMS, and a three day excavation by the Time Team (Wessex Archaeology), Mull Museum secured funding to undertake a research and community excavation at the site. This excavation was undertaken, 18 August - 1 October 2012, and was led by Argyll Archaeology. In addition to the excavation a number of other chapel sites similar in character to that at Baliscate were visited and recorded by volunteers assisted by Argyll Archaeology. canmore.org.uk/event/993719
I've never heard the bit about Christian pilgrims using pebbles. I do know that it is Jewish custom for visitors to gravesites to leave a bit of rock to show that they were there.
20:40 “I found a building.” Where I live in the Canadian Rockies, we have an awful lot of stones and woods, and I would never think at first glance that a pile of stones were anything other than that. Stu must be a sage-a sage with a PhD.
"Because over in Trench 2, it now looks like we've spent a whole day uncovering an animal enclosure with a little hut attached for the farmer. There's simply no evidence it was ever a walled cemetery. So, we can effectively close that trench down." Sorry, Mr. Medieval Farmer, but your story isn't worth telling on Time Team. =)
There is more work done later and the report is available at archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/archiveDS/archiveDownload?t=arch-310-1/dissemination/pdf/2056-7421_68_Baliscate.pdf done later in 2012.
Hi guys these stone markings in rocks are imprints from deterirated items the rock has petrified or melted and fused these imprints. wtach the channel called: wise up. it makes so much more sense than the narrative we have been fed since schooliing.
Great 'starter' episodes. The thing that bugs me with this show is that, yes it's super interesting but they never really get anything accomplished...for the most part. It's like meeting someone and getting into foreplay, you both take your clothes off after that and......just walk away.
Hilarious the teeth are "to old" to radio carbon date.. no they didnt want to date them because radio carbon dating doesnt work and probably would have shown those teeth to be ridiculously old
