I was just going through my collection of sharks teeth and to my surprise I found 25 tiny flint and obsideon (?) arrowheads! I would not have recognized how important this was if not for Phil. They are probably for birds by their size..1/2" and smaller. Some look like Christmas trees and some are Eiffel tower shape and a few are like tiny three pointed throwing stars. Beautiful smalls I collected sitting on the beach in the Keys of Florida. Thank you time team for teaching us!

(You can't hold a Theory as your foundation if Fact. The 19th Century Darwinian Theory is Theory, and it isn't gaining any strong support from any venue. It will be retired 8n the near future and along with toy the Paradigm they created around it and its linear Timeline. That will open the top on Everything History! It will be a delicious feeling of finding the truths and they will be wonderful. Not restricted by narrow minds clinging to a story that has been their idea of reality. That's sad for them but far greater for the whole of Humanity. 😘 G0 IRISH!!! 🍀

@lisatwitchell403 3 года назад

As a mechanic who went into engineering, I find the radar cart to be poorly designed. There's no reason it couldn't have larger wheels. You just use a drop axle. That would allow the sensors in the radar to be close to the ground but still having much larger wheels. You see the same thing on poorly designed for lawn mowers. The radar card was probably designed by electrical or electronic engineers. The frame and wheels should have been designed by a mechanical engineer.

@urituba6993 3 года назад

A drop axle eh? What, kinda like this 0-_-0 ? I enjoyed ur comment v much btw.

@Libbathegreat 2 года назад

You're right. The creators of this equipment never envisioned it being dragged across terrain like that. It was developed for finding pipes, services and cavities under lawns and other flat ground. I don't know enough about it to say whether the type of rig you're suggesting might interfere with their readings on certain machines. That said, this episode aired over a decade ago; hopefully they've made some improvements since.

actually thats a sad disease historians and archaeologists have "dont understand what it is? Ceremonial!" It is too easy to dismiss mystery that way and it completely ignores the fact that throughout history, people have done seemingly pointless things for reasons other then ceremony or religion. Art and decoration are reasons in themselves, for instance. But somehow it seems like they think art for arts sake only started around the late middle ages or smth.

@Iazzaboyce 3 года назад

@@pathwanderer1183 "ceremonial" is a very broad term. At one end of the scale, sitting down to eat together with your family is a ceremony of sorts, just as a coronation or a state funeral is.

@GordonjSmith1 3 года назад

A 'raider' community was actually my first thought, 'defensive' yes, but rather to 'defend' the bullies from those they were stealing from. With so few resources on the headland, how could such a community sustain itself? From an 'economics' point of view, each house must have been expensive as the resources to build them had to come from further and further distances, and be very well built to withstand the weather conditions. Additionally as the raiders continued to 'raid' they would have needed to travel further to find cattle herds to steal. Very interesting 'dig' which again creates more excellent questions! Love it!

@lorrainearmstrong7587 3 года назад

'Bullies' and 'victims' can be used virtually interchangeably. IF you are the one being 'bullied' then you are a victim. Occasionally, victims also bully the bullies. Strictly out of self defense LOL

@faithlesshound5621 3 года назад

Robbery is a zero-sum game for society as a whole. Once Ireland developed kings who ruled more than their own hill fort, it must have made sense for them to agree to stamp out cattle raiding, which needlessly wasted property and lives. Much like our police forces today try to stop gang warfare, rather than let the gangs wipe each other out.

@Libbathegreat 2 года назад

@@faithlesshound5621 I'm not sure whether cattle raiding did get stamped out, at least back in those days. There was so much romanticizing and mythologizing around it, I wonder whether it might have become a sort of ritualized time-honored tradition in more stable periods. Sort of the way neighboring villages keep rugby rivalries alive for generations as a form of sublimated and (relatively) bloodless warfare. Really it's anyone's guess, I just happen to like mine :)

Early in the program I was thinking that the place could be a lookout, an outpost to provide an early warning of invasion to a larger community further inland. But it became too large for just that purpose. It seems a difficult place to live with the wind and exposure to the elements. What did they use for burning fuel? Wood? Pete? And how far did they have to travel to obtain it. How self- reliant could they be up on that peak? How long could they resist a siege? Where did they bury their dead? Strange.

Mick Aston should get a posthumous knighthood. RIP

I could be wrong but I believe he turned down a knighthood or CBE several times in his lifetime. I don't think a post humous knighthood would be something he would enjoy
