Happy to see a new video, they are always so interesting.

I have been watching your videos since the beginning of the lockdowns here in the US, and I wanted to say how much I am enjoying them. Most of all, I want to acknowledge the poise and articulate way of explaining the dig and the finds to us, and the teamwork involved in having multiple speakers hand off one to another while covering the archaeology!

Thank you. I don't mean to be critical, but the term for the gravel that you spoke of is crusher run. It is the unclassified product that comes directly from the crusher. It contains everything from gravel to dust.

Great and interesting work ?

Great Stuff y'all!!! I'm related to Richard Biggs, Ancient Planter and this is so Good!! Thanks for doing all this Fabulous work!!

Love this concept and format!!! More more more.

I enjoy every article about Jamestowne. The detailed reports have me thinking I have a scraper in my hand shearing off the millimeters of history like turning a page. In Northern Ontario our recent history only goes back about 125 years, but the Boreal Forest and it's rivers were witness to much human habitation. I love getting out in the fall and looking for signs but where I live wasn't a good location. Nearby there is 5000 years of evidence where cherty rocks are in abundance. Our Library had a wonderful collection of clovis spear points, arrowheads and numerous tools and it was given to the First Nation People who live near the site. The Museum they are building will house them nicely. More recent human impact is more obvious as prospectors and foresters were the ones leaving evidence. Knowing where their land trails were is worthwhile as glass bottles are abundant. Many thanks for posting the fascinating research going on.

Interesting, thanks

Interesting, thanks.

Well done video - the explanation of the features and their possible relationships was good. It is almost always true that while your dig provides new information, it also provides new questions. Keep up the great work!

Are post mold distances measured from edge to edge, or center to center?

The distance measured is between post holes, so from the edge of one to the closest edge of the next, so just the line (not the squares) at 7:43. Interesting question, because the hole is not necessarily the size of the post itself. Once the post is placed inside, the area around the post was filled with dirt, rocks and other debris and then tamped down to hold the post in place better.

Your episodes are so comprehensive and interesting. Thanks for posting them.

Stratigraphy.... what a cool word. And what a cool vid!

I'm sure that there are other post holes that run through the gravel road where that dig is located. Could those post have been for cattle stockade or small animal shelter? It's interesting to see how archeology will, most of the time, find the missing link to solve many puzzles. Keep digging, my friends. Love this stuff!!

Love the ring (sorry) and the inscription............................ Ahhhh............................. Bet the lady was sad to loose it? Great work as ever. I'm from the UK and really appreciate the HUGE amount of complete artifacts on this site. The Bartman Jugs. I've never seen so many all in one place. Well apart from a museum! Thank you for sharing as ever. I've learnt so much from your channel. Enjoy

I've lost 3 gold rings that was on my fingers not all at once though..

I can't describe how melancholy that lost ring makes me feel. What an excellent find!

Good stuff! We were there in june of 2022.

Great job ladies 👍🏻. Joyce ❤️🙏🇺🇸Connecticut

Thx for clarification on what a "pole" is. Every time I see it in my family research, I have wondered.

Yes, I have one ancestor’s land indenture that lists both poles and perches. At least they didn’t throw any rods, chains or furlongs in there.

❤️❤️❤️

I love these videos and I think you did a great job, but I kind of wish you would've given more info on the ring. I find it more interesting than post holes. 💍

Great presentation, ladies. It’s like a giant jigsaw puzzle with pieces from different puzzles mixed in. Now to figure out where the pieces go and which pieces go to which puzzle! That ring was beautiful, such an outstanding find. Any idea who it could have belonged to? Looking forward to more videos. Keep digging! Mary

3:13 Beautiful ring! Could have been recycled during the late medieval period/post-medieval era. No matter what, it’s a beautiful ring.

What was the rings inscription?

I loved that ring; I could imagine a man giving it to his sweetheart and how sad she would have been at its lose.
