      I just finished watching an interesting episode (the team's first Roman mosaic find) before deciding I'd enjoy another on this chilly Sunday morning in the Pacific Northwest of USA. At first, I wondered if the host, Tony, was wearing a wig!
      It would be nice for those of us new to watching the program--this old Yank for one--if original episode numbers and or dates were included in the brief description that Odyssey appends to the upload. I know, I'm on the web and can search it out; but, why not save viewers the time and effort for want of an additional line of text, right?

      i spent some time with an archeologist in new mexico and i learned how to spot flake scatter (from tool making) i figured out for myself how to find defensible spaces near a water source, because that's where one finds evidence of habitation. one easy rule, if a spot was a pleasant place to sit and chip stone thousands of years ago, it might look like a pleasant place to sit now. the last time the county put down gravel on my road there was a prehistoric left handed pole scraper by my gate. evidence of prehistory is all around, and it's not that hard to read the signs, if you find yourself at a loss, there are archeologists at your local museums, universities, they're easy to dig up.
      also, spent cartridges can tell tales of fights and skirmishes. read the land.

    It’s pretty amazing that nearly anywhere in the UK a little digging brings up artifacts. In the US you could dig a 100 mile trench in some places and not find a thing. My grandfather had a field on a bluff next to the Elm River where a native encampment had been at one time. You could find arrow heads and beads but they were far and few between.

The little owl broach is of Celtic design, and has groups of three "bosses" possibly indicating the social status of the owner (with 5 bosses indicating the highest social tier).

      Three days was what they could pay for. Yes, there were lots of volunteer field walkers and university students, but... All the tents, catering, camera crew, post-production, and time for the archaeologists away from their bread-and-butter teaching jobs (and their own site digs): it was an expensive programme for its time.

    • @leecarlson9713
      @leecarlson9713 Před 5 měsíci

    "the walnut tree field"? Why would any sane person remove a walnut Grove, replacing it with grain? Unbelievable!!!

      Could just be that because of the few trees in tthe field. Maybe was never a grove.

    These two “detectorist” found all these finds. So we’re going to put them on dirt mounds. Seems a good use of resources 😂

    I'd love to go check out that forest where they ambushed all those Romans! I guess thousands of them were massacred and I'll bet there's tons of stuff there if it all hasn't been taken already!
