One of the things that I really like about Time Team videos is that everyone truly loves what they do, the young lady with the cattle vertebra says " Another really nice piece is part of a cattle vertebra". To someone who isn't an archeologist that looks like a small rock, but to her it was a nice find. I think loving what you do for a living is important.

@RKHageman Год назад

They couldn’t. One, Ch 4 wasn’t going to fund expeditions longer than that; two, the archaeologists weren’t just hanging about at loose ends - they’re professionals and/or academics from different areas in the UK who have regular jobs to go to Monday mornings. That’s why TT episodes were filmed over the weekend, Friday morning to Sunday evening. And finally, Mick Aston planned the show that way. They’re not intending to completely excavate a site entirely; their goal is site evaluation- finding out the nature of a site and whether it warranted further exploration by local archaeology councils.

What if the name Ulnaby is inspired by the old norse god Ull/Ullr? Ul/Ull/Ulle-names are very common in south-eastern Norway and east and mid-Sweden, and it is seen as a part of Swedish early-mid iron age expansion. "By" is most definitely from the iron age, perhaps later, and means "city in both Norwegian and Swedish.

@mrdanforth3744 Год назад

Arable land and pasture land. The farm laborers lived in the village and went out to the fields to work. Plowing and planting, and tending flocks of sheep and herds of cattle. Droves of hogs were taken to the woods to feed in the day time. At harvest time the whole village would turn out to bring in the peas, beans, oats, wheat, barley, and rye. The woods supplied timber and fire wood. Only the lord of the manor was permitted to hunt the game animals that lived in the woods.

To be fair, it can sometimes be difficult to spot in the field even for archaeologists, especially when there's a lot going on in the trench. I once dug the site of a medieval farm. We could only dig it in three trenches next to each other, one after the other (because we had no space for the soil). So we couldn't see the whole thing at once. We had many big pits, ca. 0.8-1.0 metres in diameter. But it was only when our surveying technician showed me the plan (with a grin) that I could fully see what was going on. It was jawdropping...the pits were huge post holes so on the plan the shape of a very big house (half-timbered, hence the posts) popped up right in front of our eyes. 😳😆 It can sometimes be very surprising to see the stuff on the plans, really, because it's hard to see the forest for the trees. 😂

How very interesting! Makes me feel rather inconsequential.

I find it kind of funny, they find a teeny piece of a rim of pottery and say, “it’s a rim of a large jar!” Like, how do you know that? Or a small bit of shaped bone, “it’s a spoon!” I mean I can totally think it’s a legit peice of history but I think it’s a little premature to jump directly to assuming it’s a large jar or a spoon

They have seen a lot of jars and spoons. They would have recognized the portion as a rim due to the lip where the lid rested and the size by taking into account the curvature as to how large the circle the opening was. As to the spoon, chalk that up to the same idea, experience in handling and studying and they recognize the piece. I mean. It could have been a fork. 🤷🏻‍♀️
