      Mainly just keep doing what you're already doing. I like clicking on these videos knowing there will be things in there I didn't know I would be interested in! However if any information comes in regarding further work at old dig sites, especially from the 'classics', I'd love to hear the updates.

      Any 11th to 14th Century archaeology conducted in Yorkshire, especially around Sowerby and Bradford UK. I have traced my paternal geneology to that area and can't find much except marriage/baptismal records and graves of my ancestors in that region. I would like to learn more about the culture and everyday lives of the residents in western Yorkshire during the early medieval period. Thank you!

      After 20+ years of work at the Ness of Brodgar, this year marked the last for excavations there. Now starts years of post-ex work. I'd like to see and interview with Nick Card on what they've so far learned, and what they hope the for the future of the Ness.

      I think a show like this is a great idea. I know you can't always be doing a dig. But people love to hear some news and you already have a great crew.
      Keep it up

    I’m thrilled that TT and the other groups involved in the Band of Brothers dig were able to find Otto May’s grandchildren and learn more about him. I remember the look of pure joy when the head of the dig was handed May’s dog tag that had lain under the Quonset hut’s floor for decades. Otto’s story was the icing on the cake!

  • @danhnguyen-fn9eb
    @danhnguyen-fn9eb 13 дней назад +6

    Arthur's Hall is a curiosity. First I think that someone like Stewart Ainsworth would need to give the area a serious look to see if there might of been a geologic or natural reason for a rectangle construction. Since land was being carved up at the time the "Hall" was around it would help to know if it was in the middle of a section or on a boundary. Do you know what the floor elevation is as compared to the surrounding land? From the image at 2:35 in the video it resembles a manmade pool or pond. Not saying that's what it is just that at first glance from that angle it resembles it. A meeting house or community Defense platform is probably closer to what it was.

    • @nevillemignot1681
      @nevillemignot1681 12 дней назад

      I do think you mean Stewart Ainsworth, about the best 'Lumps and Bumps' man seen on Time Team. And so good in discovering what sites were, and why they were there in that place in the general landscape. I did think he was some kind of a genius.

    • @danhnguyen-fn9eb
      @danhnguyen-fn9eb 12 дней назад

    Why no mention of the key element Water ? The centre within the stones is sunken 1.2 m deep and has several founts of a rising spring .Thus ceremonial linked with water .Healing waters .Serving waters . I was one of the group TimeSeekers, who instigated the whole project, and was a volunteer all through the dig . Water is key .

    I look maps, and see that there is two stone circles very close in King Arthur's Hall. About 2,5 Km. One north side and one south side of monument.
    East side is also one circle, but longer distance. I wonder if they are connected some way with King Arthur's Hall?

    King Arthur's hall looks to be the shape of a barow perhaps it is an unfinished abandoned barrow foundation. Who is to say that all projects are completed?

  • @AndyGabrielPowell
    @AndyGabrielPowell 13 дней назад +1

    King Arthur's Hall. I'm pitching it had multiple functions. A place of shelter in bad weather, defensible, a meeting place. But the lack of an entrance doesn't work for me when people define it as ceremonial.

    really enjoyed this video, it's clear there's a lot of passion behind the research! however, i can't help but wonder if the whole idea of finding “Britain's oldest spade” might be a bit overhyped. i mean, does it really change our understanding of the past that much? just a thought!

    Tap water? Surely rain water would be a healthier option for washing and soaking the wooden spade? Less chemicals than tap water and closer to what's kept it moist and preserved so long already.
