Greetings from Florida in the USA. I’ve been following this series “Digging Britain” for quite awhile now, and this episode is one of the most fascinating that I’ve seen! 👍 & Subscribed
I'm in Tennessee and love the archeology Britain has! Super jealous but Dr. Alice Roberts is amazing. I know she's much older than me but she's a very beautiful and intelligent woman. I enjoy her voice most of all, calming yet builds the stories up in a way no other can, other than Sir Tony lol.
Ive heard Native American elders refer to rocks as "the bones of our ancestors," which I always found quite poetic, and in terms of the Earth's elegantly efficient natural systems of recycling, rather accurate. Love this show. Alice Roberts is the bomb. )
i love this program . im loving the enthusiasm that the presenter has too. it really encourages you to take notice of the history that is all around us here in our beloved UK.
A theory regarding cave art- The colors represented the seasons The drawings, what they do during said seasons. So for example a black fire would mean that those people live in the cave during the winter where as a red deer meaning during the fall, they are out hunting. Consider it like an ancient answering machine "sorry we're out, if it's summer we're on the water, if it's the fall..." Etc.
Funny, you're spot on with the diet I'm thinking. I went meat based diet 5 years ago. Turned my teeth right around. My dentist was puzzled how my teeth are getting better and better. She said she has never seen it before, a jaw getting stronger and more dense. I'm 60 and once thought dentures were in the near future, now I'm planning on keeping my teeth another 60.
Could the villa with the 97 babies have been a maternity hospital type location where mothers went to give birth and then recover? Was there such a thing as a midwife or doctor specialising in births (and possibly disposing of sickly or unwanted babies)? Whatever happened at that villa it's incredibly sad that so many full term or close to full term babies died. I can't help but imagine how those deaths were seen by parents, family and society... Were the people around them sad, grieving the loss of precious lives or were they giving their babies to gods to try to ensure that they had a harvest free from disaster? To me a baby is a miracle, someone to be treasured and protected. I can't imagine the heart wrenching feeling of giving birth one day and holding the baby only to then have it die/be killed... I'm just a big softy when it comes to kids. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot
We have an archeological site in Baluchistan, along with the mountains there are also some bones of men How to call you So that I can tell you that place and that place looks like King's Fort
While I agree that Caitlin started the draw of viewers. It is not her alone. The Fever TEAM have all brought the fans. This team would not be where they are without all of them.
The holes could be traps dead fall hence 🦌 deer human grain could be bait easily route.... coins could be haul from the ambush think its roman Robin Hood or thieves praying on Britain's or roman soldiers makes more sense than storing grain in chalk pits won't keep germination plant science 😂
