What's your favourite story we've covered so far in 2024? Let us know!
@@TimeTeamOfficial on the objects featured in the 1st segment. I don't know just how big they are but they remind me something American Metal Detectorists find on almost every od Homesite. Thimbles. Yes. Thimbles. Seems just about everyone had to be able to sew. And they lost their Thimbles in significant numbers.
@@deanfranklin6870 In at least the UK, France & Italy, thimbles & their variant forms have a truly ancient & varied history - usages include both leather & sailor-work, & I believe are known from the Roman period. They became "common" - a relative term - by the Medieval period.
@@hueman3840 pretty much likewise in America. For centuries everything was in sacks that were sewed up to everything personal.
Thanks for the information. I appreciate it
@@deanfranklin6870 Sacks - I own the oldest-known pair of French mason's trousers - 16th or 17th century. They were tied at the ankles, & used as a sack - stuffed with 800 years of documents. 2 intentionally sewn sacks were also stuffed - more than 2,000 pages & 800 years of French history.
@@hueman3840 very cool! What an amazing source of history that must be. That's got to be the kind of thing historians would dream of.
Dani is incredible! Thank you for making it possible that she continues to be the Presenter!
Bit of hero worship going on there regarding Tony Robinson from Dani.......personally I find him rather irritating.
We've compiled the best bits from this year's Time Team News so far into a marathon feature-length edit. So grab the popcorn and join us for an epic watch-along tonight, Saturday 20th July, at 7pm (BST)!
I thoroughly enjoyed that content. Would you consider publishing a monthly Time Team magazine, featuring old classics and finds up to the most up to date digs now, including historical facts and stories, plus an A-Z of all the Time periods covered. I think it would be great. Just an idea and I would definitely buy it.
I don’t have a favorite. I love them all! I’m always riveted while watching.
Thank you Dani, for this wonderful summary of 2024. I love how time team nowadays also covers some the research and excavations done outside the UK. Keep up the good work!
Tony, John, Helen, Naomi, Dani, Bettany - my cup runneth over! Thank you - this was wonderful.
by leaps and bounds sutton hoo is of course my own favorite, but also the op nightengale stuff really hit me personally as i deal with PTSD as well. thanks for being who you are. all of you. my life is so much better because of what you all do.
Would love a book club! My friend’s dad grew up at Poverty Point.
As an American,, i think poverty point is interesting to see what our first peoples created while the rest of the world built in stone.
This American is grateful to those who worked to get Poverty Point recognized as a world heritage site. With thanks to all.
Loved all the news and your diction is so clear it is a pleasure to listen and understand what you are saying x❤
Wow, so many new discoveries and so much more in the pipeline.
Great job. We want more 😊
from the bottom of my heart and depths of my soul, i thank you sir. those of you who are financially able and willing to donate are doing me and probably tons of other people a tremendous mental health service in addition to mental nourishment overall. i cannot put into words how grateful i am to absolutely every last one of you.
39:42
whomever wrote the classical guitar version of the show jingle won a piece of my heart that was phenomenal.
pretty sweet to see hastings other historically relevant stuff. i honestly personally never considered any other year of its history besides 1066. thanks derek!!!
9:24 Depending on size, it may be a space heater. Put a lit candle in it, place it on a table. The metal acts like a heater element, warming the air around it. In a small room, tent or lean-to, it could keep the temperature a bit warmer. The drawback is it gets hot, so people must be careful not to touch it or to topple it over.
YES! A book of rhe month club!
I thought I missed one. But no, it was fun to watch again.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great news.
Those decorated cone shaped this are for keeping fairies safe from cats. They can magic the top up and creep underneath until the cuddly kitten has gone.
also a HUGE thumbs up to the book club. again as a glassmaker, the corning museum of glass has the largest library of glass related books on earth including a TON of archaeology related books, even accounts of early antiquarians! I will ask them to suggest a dozen books with an archaeology focus on glass.
Got my audio copy of “Populus” and am looking forward to listening to it as I walk my dogs. I enjoyed “Domina” so much too.
Thank you Time Team! Fantastic program's, always! May I suggest the St Ninian silver cups are for containing the eucharist? The high quality of art and that has a base plate to hold the host. Thank you once more.
Great. What about a sound tape of what Rome might have sounded like.
as a glassblower, if you could shed light on ennions workshop, that would be fantastic. he is the first known production glassmaker in history and his wares show up literally as prolifically as samian ware throughout the entire roman empire. i get a little grin every time i think of him. i am directly linked to roman handicraft. and thats amazing.
XRF analysis works on glass, ceramics, metalwork & more - but its application is very sadly, vastly under-utilized. Institutions are partly to blame - they often charge 20 times what English assay offices do. Hand-held units remain stupidly expensive, & rental sources are extremely difficult to locate.
@@hueman3840 I'm more curious about the history of its use. But that is definitely good to know. Ant analysis is good analysis
@@hueman3840 I'm not sure why you'd not just sacrifice a couple of grams to a mass spectrometer though. It's already broken shards why not just vaporize a bit and be done with it? What advantage does x ray florescence have over a mass spec machine I wonder.
@@joshschneider9766 Neolithic Chinese glass beads are virtually identical to those from Egypt - I own one. It has a typical "grave goods", probably calcareous deposition that has to be wetted before the looping & brilliant colors can be seen.
@@hueman3840 heck i can make thousands of those type of beads a day now and youd never chemically know the difference other than how lakcing in contaminants it is LOL. basic glass chemistry is pretty simple. usually the location confirmation is what fluxes are used to lower silicas melting temp. that tended to be very geographically dependent, as in they used what was local because why wouldnt you. nowadays we use pretty pure calcium carbonate
Love you all ❤ (Adore Tony)
Depending on the size of the objects covered in the 1st segment those could be thimbles. Yes. Thimbles. It's something that American metal detectorist find on many old Homesites. They find them all over. Because everyone had to sew, or have someone do it for them. Because clothes had to be repaired constantly. I can't see how it could be different in the UK.
That was my thought as well. Hard to say without knowing the size though.
@@bwinter8523 hopefully our comments get noticed and answered
@@deanfranklin6870 Thimbles are well-documented in at least Europe - I own a quantity of bronze thimbles, Medieval through Renaissance, including several exclusively used for leather or sailor-work.
@@hueman3840 outstanding! Thanks for the information.
@@deanfranklin6870 They have been published on, at least in a few European books - I'm not so sure as to Anglo-American references, which are generally dreadful.
I agree, Sutton Hoo.
The cats and I were enjoying the show until the air-raid sirens sound effect. No matter what I said, they insisted on running for cover. Safety first when watching Time Team!
XRF analysis is one of the least-utilized yet most important tools available - it works on virtually all solid materials. The ongoing absurdly high cost of hand-held units needs to be addressed - at the very least, British & European rental sources need to be disclosed. I own the largest private collection of early lighting & related metalwork in France - with an XRF unit & an assistant, I could revolutionize what is known.
So far this year, definitely Sutton Hoo
I learned about the Time Team back in 2012 but even more ironious was that I learned about the demise of Mick Aston in 2017😔
Absolutely fascinating and hugely entertaining! More please. With love from Melbourne, Australia.
The Stetsons could have made Phil a new hat 😂
Love this program and a book of the month is a great idea. Thank you!
also considering Phils extreme involvement with waterloo uncovered to include a bunch of vids on wessex archaeology youtube, if we dont see phil on Dr Shaws journey im gonna be super sad hehe
I miss Phil as the charismatic Celtic soul of Time team archeologist.
A book club would be great please.
Woot!!! Danni Wooten!!
I question the accuracy of statements about Poverty Point - a number of Neolithic Chinese Hongshan & Liangzhu Culture sites were huge.
My collection of Neolithic "jade" (the word applies to other hardstones) pendants is small - about 60 - yet the international importance of sculpted or engraved motifs remains ignored by archaeologists.
and it DID distinguish between the bike and the porcelain toilet darn it hehehehehehe
Re the star disc. I have never worked out how anyone came up with most of the constellations in the 1st place.
'Fighting on the Frontier' is one of my all-time favorite episodes, especially the recreation of the draco. It's always nice when Alan Larsen makes an appearance. He was also involved in a documentary that recreated a Hippica Gymnasia, which can also be found on CZcams czcams.com/video/4Ji7o_fmh_g/video.html
Hands down it's John Gaither's Ness Of Broadgar's nes.
News
Absolutely fabulous! But please, how do we find the links mentioned? books are easy to find, but academic articles are less so.
Hi, we've included links in the video description box.
As an independent scholar - historian of Decorative Arts - I'm astounded by what is NOT talked about in this broadcast. Cross-cultural studies remain in a dark region of infancy - this can be easily altered to hugely advance what is known of our world.
@@hueman3840 as a glassmaker I appreciate your field of focus more than I can put into words.
@@joshschneider9766 Thank you - I'm working on a book on the subject - a cross-cultural study of protective motifs.
@@hueman3840 should be a fun dive into the subject. many glass engravers would be highly interested in such a tome.
Dani, if one is aspiring to become a field archeologist, are there any Time Team books to read and learn about archeology from ?
Depending on its size, a candle sniffer. Maybe lol 9:20
How do the "strange objects" from the St. Ninian's Island Treasure compare to finger and thumb tips? Could they be thimbles?
How big are the mysterious objects? Difficult to tell as a floating image on a black background.
What has happened to Naomi's fingers?! She's all splinted up! Is she playing rugby? 😮 I love a book club! These hard working people need to have a platform to let us know what they've been doing. Their work appeals to all of us Time Team fans.
Book recommnedation: Cat Jarman's River Kings
Yay!👌
It's a holder for hard boiled egg I think. Guy's books look interesting
Why has Patreon suddenly changed? I had to rejoin, and I cannot contact you. I have been a supporter from the beginning, and am somewhat annoyed at the changes. I am no longer getting notifications of upcoming programs. A good way to lose support
Hi, sorry to hear this. We have not made any changes directly to how accounts are accessed. Please contact us directly at membership@timeteamdigital.com and we can take a closer look at your account settings. Thanks, TT
Book club for sure.
✌
I think that someone was practicing with a chisel, realistically...
Did the Italian researchers studying the Rapa Nui glyphs ask the people of Rapa Nui if they knew of them or were told about them?
I want hi book but it costs 30 dollars to the us
Is constructive criticism acceptable? The presenter is reading a script, sometimes at pace. Listening requires concentration. I replay segments trying to catch bits I miss. A more relaxed off the cuff style might improve watchability.
Personally, I found the presentation pace to be just right. Perhaps you could try reducing the speed on your computer settings by, say, 20% or so?
💘🍀
6:27 looks as if that is the gift to God from vikings pledge to him leaving the Norse religion.
also someone tell jimmy to eat a po boy sammy while hes there. those are also a world heritage item of louisiana pride.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sutton Hoo.
NOPE. They didn’t ‘conquest’ Scotland - did they.
also ill eat my shoe if those helmet motifs were anything other than repousse. the romans had absolutely zero other methods to make that stuff. least as far as i know.
Greco-Roman metalwork was highly advanced - keep reading.
Anyone get upset like me when human buriels are disturbed and the dead are so disrespected ? And for what 😢. Anything else fine but please leave the dead to RIP
The usually repatriate the bones somewhere else. Like if going to be destroyed by “progress “. But taking the valuables and then charging to see them is pure bs.
..... it's an ARCHAEOLOGY CHANNEL, ffs......!!!
..... it's what archaeologists DO....
Who are YOU to decide what's 'disrespectful'........ and, what does 'disrespected' even MEAN...!?!?
How do we learn about the past without understanding how they transitioned their lives as passaged onto their rituals into the thin veil of death?Once you have gone on it is all residuals
These guys are grave robbers . They always try to act righteous but in the end they are just robbing and desecration grave sites and selling garbage to museums which are fences for stolen property at best . These shows are for bootlicker who kiss the kings dirty big toe. They'll have you believe wr all did human sacrifice and believed in " christ" give me a break . Go back to nature. We are animals. Ants have more common sense
I don't like them disturbing bones either
Or the tobacco was just offering somebody a good cigar????
Watching for a second time cause it’s a great compilation Danni!
But Why do h WHY doesn’t he ever SING those 😮suspected ancient songs or poems. I can not stand how he presents it, non of it sits well within. Please get him or a woman to bloody well sing cause we know the ancients had voices that also sang. If not let’s hear the evidence please.
Your intro music couldn’t be any worse! For god sake!
What's wrong with it specifically in your opinion? (FFS!)
