    As always you are very informative and educational. I’m a huge fan of Time Team so I’ll have to watch the episode with Jamestown again. Thank you for all you do by preserving our past. Mary

    What a GREAT job you are doing. It is so important to preserve our history and you can give each other a pat on the back from me. My question is, did the inhabitants of Jamestown move from there when it was no longer used as a fort or did a city take the place of the fort? Thank you.

    Excellent Q&A presentation. I suggest that additional details be presented on individual squares or groups of squares to explain features identified and artifacts uncovered. I'd be especially interested in seeing each layer and feature being exposed and peeled away as the square(s) were excavated. A meta analysis of exactly what was going on in an area would also be illuminating - e.g. a cluster of squares may demonstrate that extensive cooking was going on inside a building - information on the features and artifacts found in that area that demonstrated and explained that activity would be educational. I congratulate you on doing the best archaeology that I have ever seen. Brilliant work!

      Check their playlist. These topics have been addressed in previous episodes.

      @@kq20117 I have viewed all of the available videos and while there is some attempt to do what I suggested, a lot more in greater depth would be extremely interesting and illuminating. When I was young, I was going to be an archaeologist and participated in several large excavations (e.g. Koster site in Illinois) - if I studied the information from one square it frequently might provide some valuable information but it was not until you reviewed a larger area that it was able to get a more complete understanding of what was really going on. I do not remember see any videos that do that.

    I really appreciate the opening scene of the trowel scrapping the peat dirt.
    These questions have certainly been great ones.
    I can see why the graves are not disturbed out of respect.
    Thank you for these wonderful segments.

      I love the intro credits. The sound of the trowel is very soothing. And thank you for answering my question on data. I only noticed it today.

    Hey, *I* for one, LOVE the intro trowelling and I do agree with Chuck that the darker color works especially well in video. Better be really careful what you switch that up with guys :-)!

    Does DNA survive for hundreds of yours in the skeletal remains that are examined ?
