My favourite Time Team was when they dug at Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, in the Lea Valley. (I live about 8 miles from Cheshunt.) They found, amongst other things, the remains of a malting floor, where barley is prepared for making beer. Malting still takes place in the Lea Valley: it has a smell like scorched coffee or chocolate. Amazing to think of an industry that's been going on here for nearly 2000 years!

While I do get annoyed at Francis with his always trying to find iron age/bronze age on practically every site he's on, I have to defend him on this one. He said he was wrong, there is no spring, the area was a bog with a stream, he even said they were both right about the iron age and Roman people were there for the water "But I'm also right in that the reason they came here was the stream, we've proved that now" and when Guy said there must be a spring in the area Francis flat out said "No, there aren't any springs in the area."

I take exception to archeology in the states being eurocentric in focus. in Washington state, there have been indigenous people since 8000 BCE. the fact is that in the climate of the area and materials , little would be left of wood, refuse or any organic material. the notion that unless some stone buildings, monuments or metal working archeology somehow elevates the prestige of a ancient people is not only an unfair and biased pov, it is just bad archeology/science. i understand some being more inclined and, indeed excited by archeology that they somehow have a genetic/cultural link to, it remains that indigenous people often are marginalized by focus and import being placed on european culture, language and genetics. North American burial mounds have been torn down in order to use the earth/clay for european brick style buildings. remains of ancient indigenous being disrespected as they were ground up to make bricks for a a state house. please rethink mere "200 years ago" it lacks context and is heavily biased,

Have you ever heard of mini-mills? They are steel mills that use scrap metal, rather than ore, to produce iron and steel. They are of great importance. Another good example is the run up to WWII. One of the things the US did was to restrict the export of scrap metal to Japan. This was a huge issue for the Japanese who had no iron ore of their own. Even today, when we put out the trash, in an upper middle class neighborhood, the day before there are people who comb the streets for any type of scrap metal. There is a heugh market for scrap metal. Three decades ago I was moving and, sadly, had to get rid of an old MGB. There were people advertising $40 for old cars. Now I had stripped the car of everything but the basic body. When they got there they ended up charging me $20 for taking it away. Scrap metal is a great source because it takes less resources to create new metal than ore.

@TheEudaemonicPlague

Жыл бұрын

Who told you Japan has no iron? Sure they do, it's just not great quality, which explains a lot about the way they made their swords. They used a bit of good iron for the edge, and the lesser quality iron for the rest. People who buy cars for scrap want the good parts--it's a large part of how they make money. Around here, if you can drive the car to the scrap yard, they'll pay you a lot more--it costs money to run the trucks and pay the driver. I wouldn't do business with anyone only willing to pay $40...unless the car is completely trashed, it isn't hard to find someone willing to pay more than that. Of course, if you've stripped the car, you can't expect much from the buyer.

@@TheEudaemonicPlague I should have said little iron. For all practical purposes, that changes nothing. As for the scrap issue, you are wrong there. Certainly cars are stripped for parts, but then they are recycled. Even back in the early 1980s there was a salvager advertising that he would pay $40 for a car. When he got to my house and saw the MGB he ended up charging me to take it away. As I was moving out of town, I paid it. If you go back in the news you will see lots of articles about scrap steel prices going up when there is demand. One of the major sources of scrap steel is cars.

The practice of the allies did to restrict Japan of raw products was used by most nations in the Pacific region, but was not adhered to Australia. In pre-war Australia the then PM, Robert Menzies, earned the nick-name of 'Pig-Iron Bob' because all the pig iron exported to Japan under his tenure.

The Kingdom of Lindsey was an independent polity / Anglo Saxon kingdom for some time before being absorbed into Mercia . In fact after the Romans left it is thought it wasn’t long until Lincoln colonia assumed independence , called Linnius and probably retained its Romano British culture for much longer than many other areas. There are many villages in lincolnshire with the suffix “Wal” which refers to welsh or foreigner - so designated by the Anglo Saxon cultural areas .

Dear Tony- There are no Roman roads where I live.

Maybe the worker building that kiln for his own worksite died! Then the other workers avoided the site as it was not needed (they had their own kiln) or unclean or spirits were mad so avoided using.
