I love how Mick said they had done some great geophysics work, and they believed they could help with that rather than saying they could redo it with better tech. He's always positive in the way he presents his ideas to others. He always treats them with respect, acknowledging and validating their work, and offering to help his peers. THAT is a pure gentleman. RIP, Mick. I've come to love you and the team through finding and watching this series in 2020.

The pre-European people in my area just didn’t really build with stone, or other materials that might have left substantial remains.

I've been binging for the past year. Can't get enough of this show. And I am learning so much. This is the best team ever. The laughing and respect for each other, I love it. Great show. RIP Mick, Ian the driver, and Robin.

This episode is my favorite. The pieces of the puzzle come together nicely, and the thrill of discovery is so apparent in their faces and voices. What a wonderful show.

I enjoy seeing Kerry Ely working away in the background of the episodes. It’s fun to see him more to the forefront of this dig.

At the time of the American Revolution, an Iroquois village would look no different from a colonial to the casual observers. The introduction of pigs was to follow English custom of letting the pigs out to feed upon the oak mast (acorns). I learned that from an English history class that I took in college. That practice has led to the destruction that feral pigs do upon the forests here and other areas like the Hawaiian Islands (Polynesian introduction).

Yes, I'd like to see that as well! There seemed to be a big rectangular structure behind the curved iron-age wall that was roughly in the right direction that the gatehouse was pointing at, but the team didn't seem interested in digging there. Was there reason to believe it was something else, or did they make the decision to not investigate it due to time constraints?

Amazing site archaeology I delight in and have dug myself at my Grt Grandparents homestead. time team is very lovely esp Mick , Phil , John and Stewart.

Great memories working on this ,getting the phone call from channel 4 was a surprise.must visit site again to see how much it has changed.

+Robert Braiden He is so often right that they must have loved seeing him get his comeuppance a bit. Everything that I've read about the behind-the-scenes production shows that the crew, in front of and behind the cameras, really liked and admired each other. On Raksha's website she interviews her old co-workers and always asks their favorite pranks and they're hilarious. (such as building a cardboard magnetometer and having it run over right in front of John Gater). Pranking is, I believe, a very important part of male social interaction. It basically says, "I know I can screw with you and you won't kick my ass for it."

What did the locals think of the new villas? They said intimidated... I disagree. Anyone today that's living in an established town with certain architecture will think some fancy modern all glass and steel architecture being erected in their town would be an eyesore, doesn't look good compared to their old fashioned clapboard siding houses that's been around through living memory. They probably thought the villa was just ugly at first. Then the big monumental buildings? wonder and amazement is the most likely feelings, just like taking a country bumkin who has never seen a building that's more than 2 stories tall feels when going to a big city for the first time.

When Phil opens his 'Phil's Box' is it like that scene from"Pulp Fiction'?

It's my understanding that the Brits interacted with the Romans, trading with them for some time before the accepted date of the conquest, so there is no reason that they could not have learned more about materials and building techniques, etc, in the century before. I'm thinking of the concept of doors that pivoted, for example, or methods for better firing of pottery.

But we have to remember that history is written by the victors. What little history we know from the time is written by Roman sources: Tacitus and Dio Cassius were hardly likely to write from the position of the British. The Roman attitude towards the British is clear in what happened to Boudica's family. They even referred to the British (in writing) as 'brittuncuili', a dismissive (and in modern terms) racist description. I know we British don't exactly have an untarnished history, but don't think of the Romans as white knights coming to rescue others from barbarism. They were brutal asset-strippers, as well as builders of roads. Most of our attitudes to the Romans are based on 19th century British attitudes that saw the British Empire as the natural successor of the Roman: look how well that turned out...

I really have to admit I'm addicted to your show why is that because I happen to really like archaeology anthropology pretty much that explains itself I really can't get enough once I start digging and marking everything make my grid and really enjoy my dig after I set up that grid then I start Mark and everything then it really go to work it takes several days before I get down to the Date Line once I found that Dateline that I'm quite happy cuz then I have my answer from there whatever goes on in that. Is so explainable once I get all my answers I might take a couple months doing it by myself but everyday I do enjoy doing it image of can't do right now because of snow it's almost over now within a couple of months it'll be praised summer time then we'll be alright to start digging I'm looking for a new site right now somewhere up north and I'll make sure that it doesn't belong to anybody that way I can dig as I feel never know what I might find but hey I'm looking forward for it this summer but I'll be watching you guys as well all the best two-time team and all the best to John and the cast and crew for this year will be exciting 20/20 anybody got change for that 20/20 sounds like bills all right top of the day to you gentlemen for I am head klansman McLeod Isle of Skye Scotland dunvegan castle I stand with the steward family grandson of Alison rotor
