It’s a nostalgic feel and it’s not as ‘high tech’ besides John 😁 A magical cast of characters, they caught lightning in the bottle with this show.. it’s nearly perfect ‘tv’.. can watch and watch and rewatch and still love it all ❤

the drawing which prefaced this episode is, i think, of a compelling painting titled "Meave" which i saw in the wonderful book Warrior Queens by Lady Antonia Frazier. amazing painting

The three day time limit had a number of reasons behind it. 1) It adds interest and suspense-can they do it? 2) the professionals all have regular jobs, many of them at local universities, so a three day dig allowed them to work Monday through Thursday. 3) and financing, of course.

I used it and pinpointed where signals were. The boys had so much fun looking for finds. I did a test pit in one far corner of the property hoping to find the old outhouse pit. My youngest grandson started digging and found milk glass shards. I learned from time team and a wee bit on to another generation.

I found the furnace liners when putting in a septic system. Slag everywhere too. It's hard to find a stone that hasn't been touched by man. There's pottery in every ditch and there's mounds everywhere in my small town. I've personally documented 70 different places, etc is every place I've looked. My entire property is mounds with a small bayou going through it which used to be a river tributary until they created the reservoir.

Watching this now is the same time difference as watching a program from 1968 was then.

I don’t know if you guys go back and read these this was an episode I had not seen till recently, but I have noticed a lot of times you guys talk about people moving in to another site and using the old homes or ritual sites, etc. why did the people have to move in? Why couldn’t they be the same people generation after generation, I’m just changing their tools and mood of living but not moving out of the old neighborhood I lived in in the same neighborhood for over 50 years and it changed a lot in 50 years so I could only imagine how much something to change and thousands of years, but still be the same ancestors of the original people

To me it looks obvious that the medieval people filled the Bronze Age ditches. The medieval people wanted to ride their new horses so naturally they filled the ditches. Probably for the fox hunt.
