Time Team S17-E07 Cunetio 

He is indeed.

He is in fact a gigantic turd, manufactured for telly so you sheep lap it up, hooting and gurgling.

Me too!!!!

Yep i agree

...im "im let down" by the later ones with Alex and Mary Ann, the harbingers of its demise

Indeed! John said they walked 55 kilometers--that is about 25 miles!, they walked a marathon, just about! Well you notice they are all very trim and youngish...

Amazing how it took so long to attach it to a vehicle

Yes he does. He just loves sharing what he learns with everyone. I was always similar with my niece, nephew & cousins. It led to me instantly becoming brave & catching a big weird noisy but harmless North Texan Cicada. Freaky bug. My niece, nephew & their friends loved learning about it up close. Their dads wouldn't come within ten feet of me holding it. Nothing can beat learning about something up close. Luckily good documentaries come close. Especially since my fibromyalgia hates cold wet weather.

I agree, absolutely.

There's always one of em in the family hehe :)

I have a terrible crush on Phil.

Like Kentuckians explaining "no, it's LOO VUL, not LueeeeVille" HAHA

@@janielaurel Right?

But I am so glad Time Team doesn’t focus on just one section of the amazing British history.

..yes, the ones without Mary Ann and Alex

The idea is to find out as much as they can while still leaving as much as possible untouched. Exposing the whole site to English weather would destroy it for future generations, as they say on other episodes

Mid 70’s…🤠

more like 40....

I've always wondered about hoards. In your system, any of my boy children would qualify. On the occasions when I've had no choice but to do a thorough clean, the sheer quantity of loose change was extraordinary!

Garett MacLean My sofa must be considered as a hoard, there's lots of coins down the back.

We world won't b here n 2000 years, not likely even anywhere near 200.

@@pistolannie6500 , I was a full-time teacher, which meant the week's washing was done on Fr. nights. One of the 3 children had to help (they took turns) and the evening's helper got to keep all the loose change that came out of the machine. Not one of them ever complained about having to help. I suspected my dearly beloved husband (he died nearly 21 years ago) of 'seeding' his pockets.

It is always you Phil because nobody does it better.

But a wheel barrow isn't a barrel 🤔

Beer barrel for me 😊

​@angelitabecerra but it will help you get one home 😂

there's an episode where they make him move tons of stone, and he strips naked to put on the period clothing. happy hunting!

You should wangle an invite for TT to visit your area. They always bring rain ... or seem to ...

Two years....

The point of Time Team was they were a test pit. Full blown digs are Not cheap and they want to know they are digging constructively? So they contributed massively to knowledge of what is out there, to be investigated properly when finances and technology allow. Whilst generating massive interest in people who would have had no idea what archeaology is!

...it's testing to see what's what and pave the way for future digs by other groups

As you can see on other TT digs where previous archaeologists have attacked sites with no definite plan and made it hard for present day enthusiasts. Time team want to leave something for future archaeologists to discover.

don't let us stop you.

I looked him up on imdb.com. He's only 5'4".

That's why he always has to run :)

Wash your mouth out...

@@oldtimer5283 Fact of life!

A house of ill repute with a great reputation!

Renate Zacharias Write a letter to Wessex Archaeology- Phil Harding is still with them, AFAIK.

Mick Aston died in 2013

Is this possibly why he's there? He replaced Mick? Because Mick died. They didn't say when and we don't know when this time was on the video

@@nitahuncke5541 Mick did not care for the Roman digs. He was more interested in the prehistoric and medieval times.

@@nitahuncke5541 No. *Mick Aston* died a little after the show closed. He left before the 20th and last season. He was a rather ill man most of his life but very popular with almost everyone he knew. It's worth the couple of minutes watching, here on YT, the video of his funeral cortège.

Nirrrina: I’m American. But I have read of coin hoards being found before in England, and the finder being compelled to “sell” the coins. I believe this is the agency involved. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Heritage_Memorial_Fund

Even if those 50.000 coins are only 1P each, that's still 500£. And they buried it in a field that is still plowed. I don't think they left it behind.

Often used in the successive centuries as an easy source of stone for new buildings

not the BBC but Channel4

+Liam Shepard - He was born in Oxford, but was carried off to Wiltshire before he was totally ruined.

+Everywhere2 Your right he was born in Oxford but he was brought up in Wiltshire you can tell by his accent

Wiltshire, where police cars were painted mud brown (with a dash of fat custard yellow). Fitting, if you see this here.

Ooh Damme ahhh!

Actually it's 'Oh God, ahhhh!'

no point to learning a languages if you do not live with the people of that area..if you do they will teach you proper communication . if you communicate there are no mistakes...........

treksez Back in 1994 when the series started quadropters and such were pretty much a dream even in 2012 when the series ended. But it sure would be a great idea if the series ever came back into production..

+CompetitiveAudio yeah, im into quads.. building 3 right now. anyhow, the technology really was not there for joe public until the nintendo wii was released.. guys figured out the wii remote with all its tech could be used to build a flight controler for a quad also more efficient brushless motors helped too, carbon also.. lots of things happen at the right point int time to make these things possible for the price point they are now. you can build a 250 size race quad for around 150.00, where it gets expensive is when you go up in size. . and now a few short years later the hobby is growing so fast.. its amazing every day i see people joing the forum who have no interest in RC airplane.. but are all about quads.. or as the media has named them and it has stuck drones.. i hate the word drone. to me a drone is something the military uses.. not joe public.. but whatever, drone, quad, multirotor.. its a fun hobby.. and if you learn to fly with out all the training wheels ( robot stuff, auto leveling/stabilizing.. waypoints, etc )its a challenge to fly.. that is what i love i guess. the challenge of flying one in acro mode.. no stabilizing etc.. just you and your thumbs to keep that beast in the air.. i figure by spring i will start a AP multirotor build.. maybe a hex, or a oct. 690 size. p.s its very cool what the multirotors have been able to add to photography. very fun hobby. im still a noob.. but its fun to get started in a hobby that is so young. its cool to watch it grow and see trends come and go.. right now 180 size race quads are very popular. who knows maybe next year it will be all about huge AP builds.. but i have a feeling the main reason for the popularity of the FPV race quads is they are more robust, they take a crash better, cheaper to build.. and you do not need a whole lot of space. if you are not crashing, you are not flying.. is the motto of flying quads.. and the sad thing is its true.. its a money pit in the long run.. as you break props so often compared to a airplane.. o well still fun. now i just need a 3d printer and ill be set for this hobby.

+Chris c My other interest is amateur radio. There are a number of 'hams' who fly everything from RC, to high altitude balloons (65k feet) and such with cameras. The amateur radio license allows us much higher transmitter power so we are able to 'view' a flight from hundreds of miles away. Fascinating views as the flight altitude of quads is lower plus hover ability gives great video opportunities... As Quads become more 'off the shelf' prices will drop as the features increase.

CompetitiveAudio hi, yeah im looking into getting a ham license for FPV stuff. i will only need a basic license for fpv. but im holding off as im just now adding FPV to my current builds to see if its something im interested in. fpv -- first person view.. you fly through goggles.. i have all the parts just have to give it a try if its something i will enjoy i will get my ham license so im legal no matter what FAA laws come . hopefully the basic test wont be to hard.. not had to take a test in a few years since college. :D i agree with you tho.. the prices will continue to drop. from what i can tell you can bet quads will be a hot seller come christmas. i always recommend the blade nano qx as ones first quad.. its great flyer, you can fly in your house.. take crash after crash.. has auto level and acro mode ( i recommend keep auto level off, you will become a better pilot quicker ).. that is how i learn to fly.. best 60.00 i ever spent.. as i crashed like crazy till i got the hang of it. heh. hope you have a great day. :)

+Chris c There's a website called QRZ.COM which has practice exams you can utilize. The class of license you will need to study for is "Technician" which is not difficult at all. Who knows, maybe the ham license will lead to further ways to spend your hard earned income LOL I've been continuously licensed since I was a kid back in 1969.

Patti Messenger wow youre really smart

Loads of aerial photos were taken in the 40s because of the war. These features show up better in black and white maybe ?

...you called??

It was buried in a pot.

Tres dies fodies

Ok, thanks.

That was by googletranslate, so it's accuracy is dodgy. :) A Latin teacher will give you a much better range of translations, e.g.the one Tony used.

In tres diebus nobis cogniscendum est, I think

wellohmeeeeeee I would guess Time Team was too much "entertainment" for the Beeb.. For a program made for commercial television it was one of the best these tired eyes have ever seen. As late as 2013 Tony stated his belief that Time Team had still got life in it and suggested that after a three- or four-year absence it could make a return.. Sadly, many of the academic members, Professor Mick Aston, historian Robin Bush, Beric Morley and others have passed away. But it would be wonderful if the show's producer Tim Taylor decided to give it a re-boot as long as the formula was kept the same before the decline in season 19 and 20...Catching "Lightning" twice is always tough.

I beg to differ. It isn't a question of "dry" vs "entertainment". Aunty had been at the cutting edge of history progamming since the 50s. But having replaced "Chronicle" with "Timewatch" at roughly the same time that Channel Four came into being, even if Tim Taylor had offered them Time Team in the early 90s they wouldn't have had the money to take him up on it, having entered into agreements to provide "Timewatch" to broadcasters around the world. It has to be remembered that the Beeb operates on a shoestring unlike their commercial rivals.

wellohmeeeeeee same with American History Channel. Just crap reality shows and non informative shows that are a joke.

wellohmeeeeeee well you have to pay for the bbc and 2 the bbc is shit!!

Because it costs too much money to make. Imagine how cheap it is to get one presenter to travel round the country with a producer, cameraman and sound operator, putting together different 'piece to camera' exerts on a given subject and boom, with a bit of post-production, you have a history programme. Time Team cost Channel 4 a fortune to make, and once its viewing figures started to slide, down went the advertising revenue and it was the beginning of the end. These days most TV is made 'on the cheap', with our screens filled with fly-on-the-wall documentaries and 'who can bake the best cake' scenarios. It is highly unlikely that big budget TV like this will ever be made again. If the BBC were forced to do it, you'd probably get Phil Harding with his shovel, doing the whole lot as that's all they would pay for lol

Yes......

hahahahahahahahah

how does buying free things work?

@@areyouavinalaff Aaahh, buy'em a damn pint anyway!

Considering the weather it must be summer, English summer.

...it was a Tuesday 4:56 pm

What are you talking about? Each Emperor had his own coinage minted. There are pre-Roman coins in existence dating back to the Bronze age.

You do realize that each Emperor had his own coins that circulated right? Also each new Empress. Romans widely used coins, both in Rome and in all their provinces. Hell, the local tribes in Britain minted and used coins before the Roman invasion.

@@angelitabecerra those weren't coins they were metallic tokens impressed with the head of whichever ruler was in charge at the time

@Read My Comment You're not very bright are you?

@@angelitabecerra rude and inaccurate, I'm actually an amateur scholar of post victorian roman history

+Jude Irwin He's Dutch, transcribing phonetically. Give him a break and be thankful that he spent 3.5 months posting these for our edification and pleasure.

+Jude Irwin Your English is so terrible I am considering jumping off a sheer cliff.

+itsatz Bye, then! Enjoy the trip!

Jude Irwin Nah, that would be sheer nonsense.

KYIRISH1 it was 20 years ago memory tends to get hazy over time also don't forget he has a certain fondness for beer.

Beer is good.

Or they left in a hurry. Nobody is certain exactly what happened when the Saxons started raiding our shores - some historians think they invaded and fought their way across Britain, others think it was more of a peacemeal settlement. For sure there is a strong likelihood that the Britons left in these towns after the Romans departed in 411 AD had a very tough time and were either as you say, killed, or they had to scarper and didn't have time to recover their haul. They may have simply buried it there in the hope they would be able to return and recover it one day, but could not do so.

@@Wally-H Indeed. The size and weight of the horde alone would make it impossible to take anywhere. So whoever it belonged to may have taken something from it before they left, as much as they thought they could safely carry, and secured the rest thinking they would return later. Besides, while I'm sure they regretted having to leave all those coins behind, the coins were of low value, and would not have been worth the trouble or risk all things considered. For whatever reason, no one ever came back for those coins. But I do think this horde and others like it from this period start more to look like that it may not have been so unusual to keep a stash of coins buried somewhere nearby as an emergency fund or savings. Even if a person's house or town got trashed and burnt down, looted by somebody, people would still be able to return and likely find that their buried stash was still there though all else was gone.
