If I wasn't retired, I would donate as I've always loved time team.
I'm a Yank, but love all things British. My grandmother spent many of her summers in London, way back in the 1920s. Maybe someday soon, I'll be able to visit our family in London.
Oh my God. You could put Francis on a boat directly over the Mariana Trench, he'd say 'there's something ritual here!'

He's a pretty smart well educated man, I'd trust his judgement over someone like myself.

I know, he annoyed me often, but he is actually often right. People were indeed into life and death and had different believes.

People thousands of yrs ago had completely different mindsets than we do today. Francis is extremely well educated and an expert in the Neolithic time so I'd say it may seem odd to us but more likely than not, he is right.
What fascinates me from the neolithic is they were in tune with the nature using everything to it

shit they hadn't even invented the fridge 2 keep the beer cold,,,,
Don't forget Doggerland had a huge impact on the tribes. Mass migration from what is now the North Sea was still a big part of life until the area flooded. I still think that mainstream science does not cater for these structures and settlements being much older. Even 3000-years Doggerland was still disappearing under water. This brought about social cohesion on what is now the East Coast. You will see similar on the other side of the Channel. Communities had no choice but to work together as they were forced by nature to move inland. You are welcome ❤😊

Wot a prat you are. You're welcome.
best compilation ever
Thanks for the links.
Looks like a corral to me, adapted over time.Gather the available wild stock then domesticate it. Move it on to other sites for farming. That's what I got. Also bit surreal watching the traffic in the background knowing what went down before. Always will love time team. Thank you
I would think that one way of raising the ground level in a boggy area would be to dig trenches and use the soil to create a mound. More likely for defence rather than any mystic reasons. When you are up against it in the wild, it's best to be practical.
I love this series. I always think when they are saying something or someone is buried here that thousands of years of warfare yep pretty good bet. I’m getting used to the new time team folks too.
Ah good old Francis. He could walk into my garage, pick up a random offcut of wood he didn't immediately recognise the shape of, and it would be "ritual use". Hunts down an picks data that supports his constant Ritual claims and ignores anything else. It's always fun when Stuart leans in with "...or maybe it was a farm" or similar - the considerably more likely scenario.
Thanks
The Fen we still call it Fean.
@1 the auroch bone is only significant if its not one of many thrown in the ditch excavating the center of the compete curve of the ditch only then saying oh this is really important as it in the exact center is sort of making your own importance for your excavation unless you check the whole ditch to know whether bones were thrown in it all around its as meaningless as archaeologists calling everything unexplained a ritual site @2 "palisade of sharpened stakes " really so not a stake used to weave a fence through , or lay a hedge , or lash a fence to ,from one stake piece you get a palisade of sharpened stakes wow did you use the tarot cards or a cristal ball !
It’s a ritual site! It always a ritual site.
Grinding corn, sure. Grinding maize, not so much.

In England the word for Corn is Maize. Back in the day, they used the word Corn in the same way modern English uses Grain.

Well, we can be fairly sure they weren't preparing mashed potatoes.
I have a question. I have always wondered why 3 days only. Seems a waste of time for anyone really trying to do Archaeology that is not even enough time to really set up a proper search grid. It's the major reason they never really find ant answers to anything. Just enough time to go something my be here but we dont know if it really is what we think it is.

They all had full time jobs so the only way the series could be filmed was on the occasional 3 day weekend. They were all top of the field and many of their best digs were then followed up by local archeogists at a later date. The also had some episodes in which the helped local archeologists that didn't have the means to dig deep enough.

Obviously the episodes took a lot longer including documenting and clearing up afterwards. But for a TV show 3 days makes sense.
Francis almost alway cherry pick the data to come up with his ritual bullship.
Why the hell should I even attemp to watch????

You might learn something

Because you will learn something about the (potential) history of the family of men. Sometimes it has something of gossipping on a higher level. It makes daily life easier to live. Or simply: it gives you pleasure. Or, as Francis often suggests: if in doubt, the best answer is: "Ritual. The ancestors connected with something higher than just daily life, with magic, with the godlike, which gives sense to life.'
the reason them ditches were so deep was to keep all them big elephants out
question,,,,,,,,if the planet was half mile this ice ,,nothing would live 2 thousand years,,,,,,,so wat happened to all the ice??????????
