    Time Team is one of those programs that as soon as I hear the opening theme song, I can feel my body start to relax.

      Time team is what I like to watch on the nights when I'm in to much physical nerve pain to sleep. I get so involved in the show that it gets my mind off the pain. Time team is the best pain pill I know of... LOL... Be blessed my friend.... BBE..

      I've been watching for about 3 years and I've watched all the way through at least twice. I learn something new every time. One observation is how Brits appreciate the whole compass of human occupation and development of the British isles whereas Americans tend only consider the period where Europeans occupy and conquer the continent. People grow up with a consciousness of the span of history in which they live.

    Perhaps the hipposandals were only used for medicinal purposes, but I see one big flaw in your test... You wrapped narrow straps around the horse's all-important suspensory ligaments, which run down the back of his cannons. That is asking for injury. These had to be strapped on below the fetlock, probably only around the coronet and hoof, as far from the tendons and ligaments as possible. It still wouldn't be comfortable for hard or long work unless they incorporated a leather pad between hoof and shoe, which is certainly possible, as leather hoof wrappings and pads are well known from ancient times.

      That's why experimental archaeology is so important. If it doesn't work one way, you try another. I remember an episode of a children's show called '3 - 2 - 1 Contact!' that dealt with architecture. Dr. Peter Reynolds (of Butser Ancient Farm) showed and demonstrated a replica of an iron Age tool that some archaeologists thought was an oddly-shaped sickle. He proved that it was worthless as a sickle, but worked beautifully for splitting withies to make fences and walls for wattle-and-daub houses. My son and I got to try it out when we visited Butser in 2001.

    • @Debbie-henri

      I suppose they are concerned that they may come across some delicate archaeology that couldn't stand the impact of such machines. But, you would have thought that, by now, someone would have invented a sort of suction device with a deep sponge insert at the business end. This would stop any unseen and delicate fragments from being 'moved' while the water was pumped through the sponge and away.

    I'm thinking I've never seen this one before. I will add that I would like to see further material about this site. Since the community predated the Roman building I'm a little surprised it all seems to have gone away. The road was still there and some traffic would have continued. A station of some sort would have seemed to have continued to be needed because travelers and traders would have continued to use the road. The local farmers would have continued to farm.

    Something I am missing from this episode is the mention of how the soldiers would have stayed here. Would this be in tents or would there actually have been something like a barracks building? One or multiple? And can there be traces lect of this? Any left overs from their uniforms, weapons or whatever else they may have lost or left behind. This specific dig isn't over, I think it would be wise to check out more to see what else can be found and for that matter, where. It would be crucial to the story of this place to figure out a lot more. Specially with so little being known about the subject.

      @@Happyheretic2308 I get them from different places, so end up reading them out of order. Oh well. It still helps to fill in the gaps! I have about 4 more to get to! i did get one of the suggested Rosemary Sutcliff, but it's on the back-burner, waiting!

    Not just one guy and wheelbarrow - Nil Holbrook did make me laugh 😂
    I also got a poignant feeling of sadness for the horror these Roman citizens must have felt when their civilisation slowly melted away and these lovely comforts could no longer be found. Also, those student's uniforms are fantastic!

    So i'm curious. After 3 days do you just even out the dirt and walk away, with it just being a delve into history ? Or do you hand off the sight to archeologists to continue discoveries for museums ?

      There are several questions that they take into account. Each site must be reviewed for it's merit and historical significance. The British Heritage Group is
      probably the entity that decides what scale (schedule) each dig falls under. There have been some episodes where the ground was filled back in - but even
      in a case like that, important notations, geological survey, and precise measurements are documented so that if there is any future digging - they are aware
      of what is there. Other sites are continued by local archeological students and university programs. And some may be determined to have less importance.

      Once it's all recorded it was filled back in and a full report would be written and handed to English Heritage in England or their equivalents in Wales, Scotland and Ireland. There simply isn't the money available to do extensive digs any more.
