One wouldn't necessarily require to reach the shore to trade, the ship in question could lay anchor at safe depth whilst a smaller local raft or barge could be used to ferry items from the shore and to the ship.
The New ones done w patron donation are just as good as always. Missing some of those that have passed and all have aged just like me. but still a great exploration. Easy way to waste an hour of your life. You will learn something even if you don't intend to.

Yes! I had never heard of it prior to the pandemic. I’m glad I did! We are literally watching old hippies dig in the dirt for a hour each episode, but it never fails to fascinate me!
So happy to run across a TT I haven’t seen before! Thanks! Theory: the ‘harbor’ silted up too much for the ships to come in anymore (possibly too silted even for boats from a ship anchored out in deeper water), thus stopping the trade. Yes, I’m an armchair archeologist. Lol! It’s getting to where I can say the time period of most of the pottery found.
Armchair archaeologist, love it. That is me through and through. I'm forever watching these going, "That shape on the geophys look kinda like something." or they'll pick up a piece of pottery or a coin or something "Oh that looks a such and such." One day I'd like to actually study archeaology but until that day, Armchair archaeologist it is 😂
Ref 'rubbish' in the middle of the wall, back in the 00'ties me and a colluege worked on the coast of Norway and all hotels was full, so we had to stay at a farm with an old woman, she, (probably not she personally) had moved an old house to make food, she claimed it was built like it for thousands of years, it was basically an inner wall and outer wall, filled with sand in-between, and the 'funny point' was, she told us they built it wrong the first time, it was impossible to be in the house because it was sand everywhere, and the reason was, the roof they built was covering also the outer wall, what they did was, shortening the roof, only covering the inner wall, letting rain water fall into the sand, in-between inner and outer walls, she claimed the house was perfect, and it looked really good, but is do not know
love the banter and gentle professional ribbing. " the not so round , roundhouse " " it may just be the least convincing pottery reconstruction ever but...." These comments keep me coming back. and keeps us all honest.
I'm always amazed at how they can date the pottery. How is this possible? Is there a Time Team episode where they explain this? I'd love to see a show dedicated to explaining this.
They also have him saying regularly that samian ware comes from 'France' and not Gaul. Apparently the producer thinks that the British audience couldn't handle the difference.
Thank you, I've found that annoying too. What's their problem with saying "East Roman", "Byzantine" or, if they're so bent on geographical terms, "Anatolian" is completely beyond me. Calling 5th-6th century AD finds "Turkish" is just as anachronistic as saying that Julius Ceasar wrote a book titled "French Wars"...

The trenches are backfilled and the site reinstated to its previous condition, as far as possible. Then the post-excavation work begins of analysing the finds and collating the information/data recovered to begin putting the report together.

i don't know about trading port, but wreckers comes to mind, sinking ships and local folk stripping beached sinking ships. Would explain why so much varied pottery comes from.

Surely if they were trading tin and copper then Camelford is the wrong place to trade. Tin and copper was mined much further southwest where Penwith is now and Camborne / Redruth / St. Agnes and suchlike.
Really just came here to watch a good program. Iam battered by ads--political mostly, and now fundraisers, and offers to pay this site to not batter me with ads. This is a good series and you really do overdo it with the endless ads and distractions. This makes the show just a lure.

I absolutely love this show, its therapeutic even. But am I the only one that is a bit annoyed with the anachronisms " Turkey" and "turkish" when we're actually talking about the Byzantines who considered themselves Romans....at the very least they could've said Anatolian.
I wonder if such a dig and exposure to it causes any of the children who see it in person grow up to become a scientist in any of the disciplines involved?
If Baldrick's going to front shows like this he needs to learn some basic history and geography. 5th or 6th century pottery can't have been "Turkish" as Turkey wasn't a thing then. He means Asia Minor, or Anatolia, which didn't become Turkish until the 11th century when the Seljuqs invaded. So it was Byzantine (or Eastern Roman) pottery from Anatolia. It's a bit like saying that Boudicca mounted a rebellion against the Romans in "England".
During all times by Vikings, Spanish, Portuguese and Roman, there was trade. Think of the journey to China of Marco Polo. Slave trade and all kinds of goods
the more episodes you watch , you can tell that this is fixed up for the cameras...its funny how the finds popup when the camera comes along , also the so-called experts are clutching at straws all the time. Maybe when they made this show they should have followed unfilmed digging from amateurs that the show couldve confirmed or denied their finding
Bang on John . A lot of stuff you see on TV. is not quite what it seems . They can get away with it because on the whole , they have a gullible and over credulous audience
Wow, a lot of grouchy bastids in the comments. Seeing a Time Team episode outside the official channel is a risk. A lot of jokes about why "Baldrick" is here and yet Robinson is more famous for Time Team - even knighted for it, I think - than his work in some 40-years'-old comedy show, good as it was. I guess some Brits hate Robinson? Then there are all the Rome-a-boos or Byz-a-boos - "ItS EaStErN rOmAn NoT tUrKiSh gahhh!!11" Sheesh.

Quite a few harbors from the ancient world are now far inland - like a mile. Silting does that.
parts of san francsico is built on top of old ships that have sunk in the harbor, this was pretty common, along with the silt issue.
