      I feel like the “history” they teach in school is dry and boring. Here in Canada, history in high school consists of the formation of the Canadian government, they are getting better at the truth of the indigenous history, and that’s about it. In later grades, you can choose ancient history if the other didn’t put you off completely.

    On the 1326 Christmas menu, "clell" (pronounced "kleel") is archaic English word for the bird "red kite" (species Milvus). It was a common male name at the time, and still survives today as "Cleland" and "McClelland".

      I don't know if anyone else would find the small humor in this, but while my mothers maiden name was McClellan, her mother's maiden name was Byrd.
      Legend has it that the original Byrd surname was named after William the Conquerer's fowlers as it was Anglicized. He had a different surname in French...but it translated to Byrd, as well.

      I thought there would be a flurry of comments about the oyster shell at the start, Phil making some comment about a luxury life - but oysters were the food of the poor, going back a few hundred years. I don't know what state the shell was in, as I was only listening to the video at that time. I was passing some fruit loaf to visiting possums.

    Maybe they need to have a Time Team Revisited show. You get most of the old team back with some new faces and modern "geophys" technology. Revisit the old sites to see if the original theory holds up or if new evidence gives new insight. What do you think? Is the market interested in this type of show?

      Absolutely! I never quite understood why they only ever had 3 days. Digs are not typically given such a short timeframe. I know, tv production funding etc., but why not ever with the possibility of extending a project with important or significant finds? They could always tell the landowner whether it was worthwhile or not to continue.

    Observing the ambience (for lack of a better word) in the area being investigated, it transports me back to 1996 when I worked as a general labourer on the Jemseg Crossing dig. There is something ethereal in the mist on a site like this. What I wouldn't give to be back sifting through buckets of matrix looking for the smallest of clues. I found a clear quartzite thumbnail scraper in my screen, and it humbled me to realize that I was the first human being to lay hands on it in more than 6,000 years or even as much as 12,000! It strikes me as very strange that one of the more common items we found at Jemseg was European clay pipe fragments, and the last 2 Time Team videos I have watched today also turned up clay pipe fragments! Artifacts are fascinating, and tell us so much, but I am more intrigued by the features on a site. Archaeology in practice is an endeavour of blood, sweat and tears, interspersed with a scattered few eureka moments. I love it!

      Interesting; the way fantasy & action media portray war archery looks like what you described versus the reality of the era.
      Which gives better perspective of how much smaller, closer, and intimately violent an experience it was back then, instead of the vast swathes of army flowing over hills and meadows; makes me wonder how many survivors with PTSD ended up in asylums like Bedlam, or wandering alone.
      On a lighter note, I never used cams when I competed.

      The primary role of English Heritage (now Historic England) is to protect and preserve the nationally important sites in their care for future generations, not to excavate them. Sometimes they give permission for excavation on a Scheduled site but there has to be a very good reason for doing so, often related to enabling the site to be protected more effectively.

    I’m addicted to this series because my knocking about in England was necessarily limited, and the castle ruins I saw were less interesting archaeologically. This episode is especially interesting to me because we’re in the Welsh marches, and I’m a Williams who spent two weeks with my father, a Williams born in Pembroke, GA, in a cottage within easy distance of Pembroke, Wales! I’ve got a real fascination with the Welsh marches. I love the landscapes.

    I've seen a demonstration of a war bow. If I remember right, it was a 95 lb draw, and the bowyer shooting with it could only do three or four shots at a time. Yet back in the day, a well-trained archer could do about five shots a minute or better. Centuries later, a well-trained soldier could fire maybe three shots a minute with a musket -- but it didn't take 10 years of training and practice to build up to that.

      All of the members of Time Team have regular weekday jobs. They only filmed episodes when everyone was able to participate.
      The purpose of Time Team was to determine if sites had significant value as archeological sites & determine the area limits of those sites. There were a handful of later episodes that re-visit some of the original digs and
      expose some of the more advanced results. Usually, continuation was carried out by local archeological groups.
