Roman villa (Oxfordshire): • FIRST LOOK: Time Team ...
The team descend upon the island of Mull at the invitation of two local amateur archaeologists. Eager for the team to investigate a mysterious set of earthworks they've stumbled upon in a forest near the fabled town of Tobermory, they believe they may have discovered one of the earliest chapels in Scotland. The team quickly come to agree, suspecting they may be investigating the remains of a chapel set up by Saint Columba.

Michael Antony Aston FSA (1 July 1946 - 24 June 2013) was an English archaeologist who specialized in Early Medieval landscape archaeology. Over the course of his career, he lectured at both the University of Bristol and the University of Oxford and published fifteen books.

@RobWaters 2 года назад

One of the best parts of the Time Team was always the way that they opened the doors for others to make greater discoveries that they laid the groundwork for. Later work would not only continue to establish that this 6th century agricultural community rolled into the 7th century Christian community, but would continue to find evidence proving the site remained in constant use and would have other buildings raised on it and used well into the 16th century. And none of that would have happened without Mick, Phil, and the entire team opening the ground first. Even the geophys crew.

Absolutely astonishing! What an amazing site. The way the two ladies found it put me in mind of the project Stewart did in the North Pennines, with volunteers discovering hundreds (thousands?) of previously unknown sites from the LiDAR, and I think there have been some other similar smaller scale projects using local volunteers in various areas too. This site must be a resounding endorsement for the value of these kinds of community projects!

@robertslusser6753 Год назад

I just watched this video that has a connection, apparently, to Saint Columba. I stumbled unto "Time Team" a couple of months ago and have been watching many of your old videos. I just wanted to mention to you that in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania is a small Catholic parish with the name of Saint Columba's Church. My wife grew up part of a large Catholic family that attended St. Columba and we were actually married there almost 53 years ago. This video really struck home to me to get a little more information on St. Columba. Bloomsburg, PA is located in Columbia County, PA and I have been told it was named after St. Columba as, indeed, the local Catholic church surely is. So his influence even reached the new world. Thank you for all of your hard work on Time Team.

@edgeplay4205 2 года назад

The rounded quartz pebbles are not just rounded quartz pebbles. They had to come from somewhere. You may think there is nothing distinctive about them, but each pebble speaks of the place it came from. The granularity of the quartz, the amount of rounding, the amount of smoothness all point to distinctive origins. These pebbles are formed by erosion of quartz formation which then washes into a stream. It is tumbled down the stream over millennia until it arrives at the coast. Some streams tumble the pebbles more than others. It is then deposited on a beach where it is tumbled against basalts and other rocks which smooth it more, again for a few millennia. Beaches exposed to storms do the most tumbling and produce almost glassy smooth pebbles. A geologist should be able to identify the source river for each of the pebbles and match each pebble to the beach it was picked up from. It s clear to me from the peek we got, that they came from different places. Some are very rounded and very smooth while others had slight nobbly bits and were not so smooth. These came from different beaches.

@kc3718 2 года назад

depends, I live in an area where the quartz pebbles were deposited hundreds of millions of years ago from a river system that no longer survives, so your assertion would only be true for certain geographical locations and not a diagnostic tool to be applied with ubiquity. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

@PeterWasted 2 года назад

It would be interesting if they were able to trace the pebbles with accuracy but I suspect you are asking a lot more than is possible with current knowledge. I am however sure that the pebbles have far more significance than just being something picked off a local beach. From my understanding of quartzite, the crystal structure wouldn't be specific to any region but there might be certain trace elements present from which to narrow down a source. I'm not sure if that would help but it might be a place to start.
