The way the Iron Age people would have felt and the thoughts they had when they did first saw the Romans sailing theirway across the Channel would have been similar to how the Native Americans would have felt/thought when England and of course other European countries sent their colonists over the Americas. People do things like that when they forget their own history. An honest and accurate remembrance of one's history is important. Archaeology is important like that. in a perfect, world I'd say its nice when those lessons make their way all the way up into politics and when their effect brings about the best outcome for all.

[@PaulMahon-w2b]

I think the difference between the two scenarios is the iron age people's understood better. The Indians saw a new novelty and wonder, the native British saw invaders an death😮

[@yaddahaysmarmalite4059]

Not all Indians saw new novelty and wonder and not all native Brits saw invaders and death. Some Indians didn't want the new people or thier things at all; some native Brits tried to ally with the Romans.

The Romans could make a 2-wheeled cart back in old Branodunum that wouldn't have its wheels fall off.

[@damionkeeling3103]

Of course not, because the cart would be a Celtic design ;-) One of the Celtic carts was called a carpentum. It must have been popular amongst the Romans because the guy who made them was called a carpentarius which is the origin of the modern word carpenter. The Celtic word continues in Irish where a carbad is a chariot or train car.

The name Branodunum must surely be of Celtic origin - dunum would the Latinised form of dun meaning originally a hill settlement of some kind, though obviously here this site isn't on a hill. The word - dun- is the origin for the downs (South and North for example) and place-names such as Verdun, Châteaudun, Dundrum and of course County Down - in Welsh it's - dinas.

As the program begins it is clear, this was filmed when Mercury was in Retrograde. Tech folks know, it's like a Full Moon energy over tech stuff, it just up and quits working, delays, redo's, etc. (Mechanical, technical, people have communication issues, recommended not to sign contracts during these periods). They will have potential for good finds because digging up is a type of "redoing". If I knew the date, (of filming), I could check to validate.

So the shore forts are trading posts secondarily... and fortified garrisons - is the principal idea to see the ships coming up the coast and visibly shadow them with a sizeable force on land, hoping they will not land and keep going out of the area?

Daughter is an archeologist and confirms that this is not JUST a programming thing for telly. Archeologists might have months or years of preparation, and then they're given a very tight schedule for doing the actual digging. Of course, where an organization such as a university team with years to dedicate to a site, they might have months or years to investigate. Not to mention, TT is so often digging up some farmer's crop land or some poor beggar's back garden. So 3 days is all that is practical.
